This is an abstract from the "Supporting Practical Inquiry: The Past, Present, and Future Contributions of Thomas Dye" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Tom Dye was an early adopter and advocate for the application of Bayesian chronological modeling in Pacific archaeology. Since the 1990s, this chronology-building method has advanced our understanding of key cultural and demographic events through improved and diverse software options, better...
Bayesian-Based Rethink on AMS Dates from Tularosa Cave, NM (2023)
This is an abstract from the "The Expanding Bayesian Revolution in Archaeology" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Seventy years after the Field Museum’s excavation at Tularosa Cave (1000 BCE–AD 1200) in the Mogollon Highlands of west-central New Mexico, its stratigraphic integrity remains a contentious topic. Bayesian analysis on a series of new AMS dates from sandals and corn found within different levels of the cave demonstrate that much of the...
Beyond Coarse Correlations: Climate, Chronology, and Culture in Chicama, Peru (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Recent interest in applying archaeological datasets to climate change analyses have identified issues of data interoperability and challenges aligning cultural and climatic chronologies. Archaeology on Peru’s north coast has significant potential to address paleoclimate and future climate change adaptation. Despite this potential, reliance on imprecisely...

The Birnirk to Thule Transition as Viewed from Two Adjacent Houses at Cape Espenberg (2021)
This is an abstract from the "Arctic Pasts: Dimensions of Change" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The transformation of the Birnirk culture into the Thule culture remains central to the development of modern Inuit peoples across the Arctic. Nevertheless, its chronological definition remains imprecise and contentious despite a century of research since the discovery of the Birnirk site near Utqiagvik and the definition of the Thule culture in the...
The Black Mountain Phase in the Southern Mimbres Valley: Addressing the Last “Fuzzy” Phase in the Mimbres Area Cultural Sequence (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Black Mountain phase (AD 1180-1300) in the Mimbres Mogollon area is an important transition between the cessation of Classic Mimbres pottery production and masonry pueblos to a new suite of pottery types and poured adobe wall pueblos. Debate among Mimbres archaeologists primarily focuses on whether the occupants of Black Mountain phase sites were the...

Bonita Canyon: A Chronology of Prehistoric Occupation and Predictive Analysis of Archaic Sites (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Partners at Work: Promoting Archaeology and Collaboration in the Chiricahua Mountains" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. One of the goals of the Student Conservation Association (SCA) is to develop the next generation of conservation leaders. While the focus is often on natural resources, cultural resources, as a nonrenewable resource, have, until recently, been neglected. Chiricahua NM has been partnering with the SCA...
Building a High-Resolution Chronology: A Case from the Maya Archaeological Site of El Palmar, Mexico (2018)
This paper aims to refine the Maya chronology during the Classic period (A.D. 250-950) through the development of Bayesian models. In so doing, we combined radiocarbon dates with stratigraphic information, ceramic data, burials, and calendric dates from stone monuments. At the Center for Accelerator Mass Spectrometry of Yamagata University, we ran 78 radiocarbon samples recovered from the Guzmán Group, an outlying group located 1.3km north of El Palmar in southeastern Campeche, Mexico. To...
Building a More Precise Understanding of the Past by Merging Techniques from Archaeology and Ancient DNA Analysis (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Ancient DNA in Service of Archaeology" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Ancient DNA (aDNA) data have provided unprecedented new insights on demographic changes through time. This paper demonstrates that aDNA can also enhance well-established archaeological techniques, by building on research that has explored how aDNA data can help refine radiocarbon date range estimates. Previous research established that since there...

Cache Cave: Site Structure and Chronology (2015)
This paper presents an overview of the site structure within the confines of Cache Cave with a particular focus on excavated crevices, deposits, and features. We also present the results of 25 AMS dates so far submitted from the site. These dates include a range of material from basketry, cordage, matting, reeds, bone objects, and charcoal. In total, this program represents the most comprehensively dated Chumash cache cave assemblage yet achieved and yields important data regarding site usage...

Calibrating the Chronology of Late Pleistocene Climate Change and Archaeology with Geochemical Isochrons (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Recent Advances and Debates in the Pleistocene Archaeology of Africa" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Chronometric dating of Late Pleistocene environmental changes and archaeological sites can be refined by correlations with precisely dated volcanic isochrons, stalagmites, and marine isotope stages (MIS). Lake Malawi cores have volcanic ash from the Toba super-eruption, dated ~74 ka at levels previously dated to ~62.5...
Calibration of Chronometric Assays from the WS Ranch Site (LA 3099) and Other Sites in the Middle San Francisco River Valley, West-Central New Mexico (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The aggregation of existing radiocarbon assays and tree-ring and obsidian hydration assays, combined with new linear accelerator dates, allows the potential realignment of regional chronologies in West-Central New Mexico, the Middle San Francisco River valley in particular. The WS Ranch Site Project, sponsored by the University of Texas at Austin and supported...

Canal System 2’s Architecture, Chronology and Irrigation during the Pioneer Period (2015)
Recent excavations at Pueblo Patricio and La Ciudad have uncovered Pioneer Period components that provide new insight about early Hohokam chronology, settlement, and irrigation in Phoenix. Red Mountain phase occupation at Pueblo Patricio began before the fifth century A.D. with seasonal use of small structures exhibiting highly variable architectural forms and small groupings of structures. A dramatic change in Pueblo Patricio settlement patterns occurred by the middle of the mid-sixth century...

Cascade Phase Context and Chronology at the Connley Caves, Oregon (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Cascade projectile point chronology in the northern Great Basin is poorly understood, with associated evidence ranging from the early to middle Holocene. The broad temporal range of Cascade points results from the difficulty in distinguishing this type from the more general "foliate" category and lack of well-dated sites containing such artifacts. Recent...

Cephasylogy and "Trophy Heads" in Fremont Culture (2025)
This is an abstract from the "Images of the Uinta Fremont (A.D. 0 - 1300)" session, at the 90th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The presence of flayed scalps, severed heads, and ears (henceforth referred to as cephasiles) preserved in the archaeological record of the Southwest United States suggest a greater diversity in significance than simply a status-granting warrior’s symbol, as previously thought. In this paper the author makes an argument in favor of three...

Ceramic Chronology in the Absence of a Horizon (2021)
This is an abstract from the "Central Mexico after Teotihuacan: Everyday Life and the (Re)Making of Epiclassic Communities" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In this paper, I present an initial ceramic seriation for the Epiclassic site of Chicoloapan Viejo, in the southern Basin of Mexico, with a discussion of issues particular to periods of political fragmentation. I demonstrate that two phases can be distinguished at Chicoloapan Viejo, based on...
