The wealth of the Southern states was built upon the free labor of enslaved Africans toiling in the agricultural fields of their masters’ staple crops. In the Lowcountry of South Carolina the enslaved worked within the task system, which allotted them "free time" to then work to supplement the meager rations they were given. Research into the diets and spirituality of enslaved Africans can lend insight into the foods they purchased, grew, and foraged – personal agriculture in the face of...

The received picture of springtime in the remote past is of primitive farmers struggling to plough up their tiny fields with stick ploughs which do no more than scratch the surface of the soil. Looking at modern Iandscapes with multi-hectare sized fields, huge tractors and multi-shared ploughs, perhaps this picture is a forgivable one. Maybe forgivable, but is it true? Did Iron Age farmers have to struggle with primitive equipment which if not by definition, certainly by implication, was...

In recent yeats the topsoil or ploughzone in the rural context has recevied increasing attention and today, because of the escalating costs of excavation and the dwindling resources provided for archaeology, that attention is being further intensified. Financial constraint, however, is not the only motivation. The results of aerial survey and organised field walking have shown that excavation can only examine a minimal percentage of the known sites, a percentage which rapidly decreases as modern...

The Phelps Dodge Dos Pobres/San Juan Data Recovery project includes numerous sites, sixteen of which were sampled for pollen. These sites are located on the lower slopes of the Gila Mountains. Most of the sites are arrayed in a northwest to southeast trending swath. The arrangement of the sites on the landscape implies an exploitation of a specific elevation range, or more specifically, a specific vegetation community associated with that elevation range. Pollen analysis identifies the...

Fifteen sediments samples collected from sediments in a possible ancient field area and canal were examined for pollen. Pollen analysis was used to determine whether or not evidence exists for use of this area for agricultural fields in the past. Traditional pollen counts were made of each sample, then single microscope slides were scanned to search for Zea mays (maize) pollen, since maize is the most likely agricultural crop. Evidence for maize was recovered in eleven of the fifteen...

Over the last 20 years, a number of studies have provided evidence for a "drought" in the Maya Lowlands between the 8th and 10th centuries. Researchers have argued that a higher water table in the northern lowlands allowed agricultural practices to continue in the north, while sites in the south suffered from the drought. This paper will examine the relationship between population changes and climatic changes in the Maya Lowlands. The nature of the water table and the agricultural practices of...

This paper considers landscape domestication in the Upper Xingu region in the southern Amazonian transitional forests of Brazil. Archaeological research provides detailed information on major late Pre-Columbian settlements, ca. 1000-500 BP, within an environmental history to >30,000 BP and cultural history extending over the past two millennia. Late Pre-Columbian agricultural systems involved forest farming and agro-forestry, including forest conversion within patchy, mosaic forests, including...
