Albert’s Corset? A Queer Approach to Middle-Range Theory (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jennifer A. Porter-Lupu.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Gender Revolutions: Disrupting Heteronormative Practices and Epistemologies" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Popularized by Binford, middle-range theory works at the intersection between data and interpretation to analyze the ways social practices manifest archaeologically. In this paper, I take a queer approach to the middle-range that critically engages the often-elided barrier between social...

Apparel in Peril: An archaeological study of how clothing becomes embedded with human suffering (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Anna Antoniou. Jason De León.

The Undocumented Migration Project has recovered over 4,000 articles of clothing once worn by migrants crossing the MexicoArizona border. This often darkly colored apparel is intended to help people furtively move across the desert and avoid detection by Border Patrol. When recovered archaeologically, this clothing is often torn, faded, and stained with bodily fluids that reflect different forms of physical pain experienced en route. Here we employ the concept of "usewear" (i.e. modifications...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Diana Loren.

Drivers of Clothing Variability among Ethnographically Documented Hunter-Gatherers: A Cross-Cultural Test of Competing Hypotheses (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Mark Collard. Jonathan Harding. Dennis Sandgathe.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Clothing is ubiquitous among living humans, and there is reason to believe it has been important for hominins for tens of thousands of years. Despite this, clothing has received little attention from scientific anthropologists. Consequently, there are some important questions about clothing use that have yet to be adequately addressed. One of these is,...

Exploring the Materiality of Prehistoric Cloth-types (2008)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Susanna Harris.

On the rare occasions when we encounter prehistoric cloth, the preserved remains are usually fragmentary and decayed, therefore no longer retaining their original qualities. However, the materiality of cloth, including its structure and surfaces, and sensual properties (colour, smell, flexibility and texture) are integral to the understanding of these artefacts as part of past human engagement. To investigate this subject, I have conducted experiments to explore the materiality of...
