Spatial distribution and site formation of the Schöningen Spear Horizon, Lower Saxony, Germany (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Alejandro Garcia-Moreno. Jarod M. Hutson. Aritza Villaluenga. Elaine Turner. Sabine Gaudzinski-Windheuser.

The discovery of the Schöningen 13II-4 Spear Horizon represents a major milestone in the study human behavioural evolution. Once viewed as a single mass kill site of horses, aided by wooden spears, it is becoming increasingly clear that the site represents multiple hominin hunting episodes along the margin of a middle Pleistocene lakeshore. However, there are still questions to be addressed regarding the spatial relationships between and within the spear, lithic, and faunal assemblages. Here we...


Spatial patterning and site formation at Dmanisi, Georgia (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Reed Coil. Martha Tappen. Reid Ferring. Maia Bukhsianidze. David Lordkipanidze.

The early Homo site of Dmanisi, Georgia, offers some of the clearest insights into the first dispersals from Africa by early members of our genus. On a more local level, the site contains very well preserved bones with excellent provenience data, which allows for an in depth look at spatial associations of archaeological material. In this paper, we look specifically at one excavation area at Dmanisi, Block 2, where majority of the hominin fossils have been uncovered. Using spatial analyses...

Theoretical and Practical Advances in Underwater Regional Survey (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Kelsey Cornwell.

To contend with expensive and invasive ‘big dig’ excavations, archaeologists have trended towards using regional surveys to examine and interpret distribution patterns across a given area. Regional surveys offer an effective and efficient way of analyzing the long-term use and wide scale development of variably occupied spaces. With the introduction of Geographic Information Systems and other new technologies, archaeologists have been able to capitalize on the insights gained from statistical...

What Lies Beneath At The Pine Street Barge Canal Breakwater Ship Graveyard: Site Formation Processes As A Document Of Change In Burlington, Vermont (C. 1830-1960) (2021)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Paul W Gates.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Landscapes Above and Below in Northern Contexts (General Sessions)" , at the 2021 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The Pine Street Barge Canal Breakwater Ship Graveyard in the waterfront of Burlington, Vermont contains a small assemblage of abandoned vessels along the shores of Lake Champlain. Representing a span of time dating from the early half of the 19th century into the middle of the 20th century, the ships within...
