Time to Shine: Quantifying the Effect of Burnishing as a Bone Tool Production Method (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Naomi Martisius. Logan Guthrie. Danielle Macdonald.

This is an abstract from the "Animal Resources in Experimental Archaeology" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Archaeological bone tools acquire a complexly layered series of traces throughout their use-life and after their deposition. Teasing out these traces and understanding their source is essential for any meaningful interpretation of ancient human behavior. Equifinality, the appearance of similar physical characteristics through different means,...


To Wear or to Trade: Analyzing Bone Pendant Artifacts from the Peruvian Montaña (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Brian McCray.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In the montaña, the forested eastern slopes and adjacent upper Amazon, inhabitants were involved in regional and interregional trade networks connecting the Andes and Amazon. Given that material correlates for often ephemeral lowland goods are difficult to recover archaeologically worked bone artifacts are an important piece of data indexing lowland...


Under the Lens: A Preliminary Approach to De "Objectifying" Bone Implements (2024)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Isabella Garcia.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Advances in archaeological microwear analysis provide new tools to examine bone “objects” created and used by past peoples. Non-destructive microscopy techniques can be employed to study bone objects, preserving the integrity of archaeological materials and minding stakeholder concerns regarding destructive analyses. This poster presents preliminary...

Weaving with Wichuñas in the Coastal Tiwanaku Diaspora: New Insights into Camelid Bone Tool Production from Los Batanes (Sama, Peru) (2024)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Emmalee Eslinger. Sarah A. Kennedy. Karen Durand Cáceres. Alexei Vranich. Arturo Rivera Infante.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Textile production was a major economic sector in the prehispanic Tiwanaku state, for which weavers transformed camelid (llamas, alpacas) fibers and bones into utilitarian and decorative objects. As Tiwanaku pastoral communities dispersed in the wake of state collapse, they relocated to arid coastal regions where their textile industry demonstrates...
