Some Thoughts on "Clovis": Where Were They From, Where Did They Go, Where Do They Fit in the Peopling of the Western Hemisphere (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Michael Faught.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This talk will present some opinions I have about Clovis - woven with facts to convince the skeptical. I will define what I mean by "Clovis", show what some others mean by "Clovis", and add some additional ways to think about "Clovis" in both synchronic and diachronic directions. I will present what I think about its origins and about where we might be finding...

Statistically Comparing Demographic Distributions of Mortuary Assemblages (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only C. L. Kieffer. Jack Baker.

This analysis includes data from 50 archaeological mortuary assemblages variously attributed to sacrifice, warfare, and standard mortality processes. The research compares two sites, both attributed to sacrifice, to those produced by the two alternative processes of warfare and standard mortality and explores the question of whether these assemblages may be differentiated from them based on the age distribution of deaths. The analysis incorporates a novel feature in that preservation bias is...

Subadult Growth Velocity at Paquime, Chihuahua, Mexico (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Kyle Waller. Adrianne Offenbecker. Gordon Rakita.

This is an abstract from the "25 Years in the Casas Grandes Region: Celebrating Mexico–U.S. Collaboration in the Gran Chichimeca" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Patterns of growth attainment are sensitive bioarchaeological indicators of sub-adult health. Growth velocity can be used to identify periods of stunting, and corresponding periods of rapid catch-up growth. In this study, we use femoral length to examine sub-adult growth at the...


The Suitability of Dry-Farming and Its Impact on Fremont Paleodemography in the Northern Uinta Basin (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Trista Schiele. Judson Finley. Erick Robinson.

This is an abstract from the "Global Perspectives on Climate-Human Population Dynamics During the Late Holocene" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Recent work in Utah’s northern Uinta Basin shows close relationships between precipitation variability and population dynamics during the Fremont period, AD 300-1350. In this study, we evaluate the role that changes in the suitability of local dry-farming conditions had on observed regional settlement...


Survivorship and Periosteal Lesion Activity at Pueblo Bonito and Hawikku: Examining the Biological Impact of Contact in the Ancestral Pueblo Southwest (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Allison Ham. Haagen Klaus. Daniel Temple. David Hunt.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. A consideration of periosteal lesion activity and its effect on the likelihood of survival can communicate a deeper understanding of major cultural-ecological transitions by elucidating the effect of heterogeneous frailty on the formation of a skeletal assemblage. This study tests the effects of Spanish contact on the association between survivorship and...

The Teeth Tell All: Dentition, Demography, and Paleopathology at Early Classical Mayan Site of Tulix Muul, Belize (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Delande Justinvil. Jessica Leonard. Hannah Plumer. Thomas Harold Guderjan. Colleen Hanratty.

In 2013 a rescue mission to salvage and preserve details of the shrine complex at Tulix Muul, a Classic Maya site in northwestern Belize, yielded a Maya mural. While the arrangement of the mural at the shrine echoes notions of nobility, this rare landmark discovery lies in contrast to what we can infer about the social status of exhumed remains from the Tulix Muul archaeological site. This poster will address the multifaceted insights we can glean from certain aspects of the past life histories...


A test of competing hypotheses concerning the impact of demography on cultural evolution (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Brea McCauley. Mark Collard.

Recently there has been a surge of interest in the possibility that demography affects cultural evolution. Some authors have proposed that population size affects the appearance and retention of innovations and therefore influences the complexity of a population’s cultural repertoire. Others have averred that it is not population size that drives cultural complexity but rather population pressure (the ratio of population density to the density of available resources). Still others have argued...

Tracking Morphological Changes in the Domestication of Sheep and Pigs: A Comparison (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Max Price.

How do animal morphologies change during domestication? How do different parts of the skeleton adapt to human management? In this poster, I take a quantitative approach to domestication by comparing biometrical data from two species of mammals that were domesticated in the Middle East around the same time (ca. 8000 BC): pigs (Sus scrofa) and sheep (Ovis aries). Both pigs and sheep were domesticated by Pre-Pottery Neolithic B communities in northern Syria/southern Anatolia, but these species...

Using Surface Archaeology to Estimate Ancestral Jemez Population Dynamics, AD 1300-1700 (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Adam Stack. Sarah Martini. Matt Liebmann.

Determining the population of ancestral Pueblo villages has beguiled inquisitive observers from the 16th century down to the present day. Spanish explorers and colonial settlers floated wildly variable population estimates upon their initial visits to Pueblo villages. Today archaeologists are no different, offering demographic estimates that often differ by orders of magnitude. This "population problem" plagues the Jemez region of northern New Mexico in particular. In this paper, we present the...
