This resource is an application for a Dissertation Fieldwork Grant from the Wenner-Gren Foundation. This project investigates ritual engagement with animals from well-documented, previously excavated ritual contexts at four major Maya polities - Baking Pot, Cahal Pech, Lower Dover, and Xunantunich in the Belize River Valley. In contrast to much previous Maya zooarchaeological research, this project takes ritual economy and social zooarchaeology approaches in a multi-sited comparative study to...

Sociologist Michael Mayerfield Bell argues that ghosts -- what he describes as "the sense of the presence of those that are not there" -- haunt all landscapes, operating to "connect us across time and space to the web of social life." Bell does not distinguish between what might be considered memory ghosts and supernatural ghosts; both, he says, lead to a better understanding of the social experience of place. Archaeologists often steer away from ghosts because we consider them "not real."...

This resource is an application for the Dissertation Fieldwork Grant from the Wenner-Gren Foundation. Two species from different domestication centres – the Bactrian camel from central Asia and the Dromedary from Arabia – were deliberately brought together and bred to create new, more powerful, animals. Larger than both parents and double the strength of its contributory species, the hybrid camel was the world’s first engineered hybrid transportation. Creating the hybrid camel required...

All too often, archaeology illuminates the history of "big men." This paper narrates the history through archaeological investigation of one city corner in South Bend, Indiana, and the contribution of the businesses that occupied it in the city’s most formative years. Manufacturing successes within South Bend such as the Oliver Plow Works, and Studebaker are well known and researched. What is less well known are the supporting businesses and businessmen that made up the representative sample of...

The concept of archaeology and the structure of professional archaeology in Denmark differ from those of the Anglo-Saxon world. This is especially true when speaking of historical archaeology. Though medieval archaeology has experienced an inclusion into mainstream archaeology during the last few decades, much of what is considered archaeology in Britain and the United States is not seen as such in Denmark. This condition is due to historical conditions and divisions within the museum world. But...

With a paucity of written records, archaeology-centered activities offer a unique lens to explore sites of the African Diaspora throughout the Northeast and understand the lives of those who inhabited them. The first step is to engage middle and high school educators in understanding the power of material culture. The authors will share their strategies for training educators to use the methods and findings of archaeological inquiry to engage students in significant and meaningful conversations...

This project will explore the changes and continuities in the practices on the use of fire as a central activity that was structured by social decisions, as well as the human adaptation in order to contribute to the current models of human colonization and occupational dynamics. This research will study the relationship between the use of fire by human groups through the Pleistocene/Holocene in a...

Coastal communities in the United States, as well as other portions of the world, are contending with challenges posed by sea level rise. As coastal areas are inundated and subjected to coastal processes, action is generally limited to mitigation of sites with great local significance experiencing immediate threat, while the destruction of archaeological sites by the resettlement of affected communities has been given little attention. This secondary impact of climate change threatens cultural...
