The Socio-Ecological Entanglement of Water and Resilience in Past and Present Tropical Societies (2017)

Urban resilience and sustainability have gained increasing prominence in the literature as concerns regarding water resources and climate change continue to grow. Cities, particularly those in the midst of extreme urban development, are facing a wider range of stresses that call for greater enhancement of resilience techniques. This paper highlights the work of the Socio-Ecological Entanglement in Tropical Societies (SETS) project, whose goal is to investigate resilience and vulnerability within...

Taking Their Water for Our City: Archaeology and Water Rights in New York and Beyond (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only April Beisaw.

Water rights is a social issue of growing importance. Recently, the United Nations declared access to clean drinking water to be a basic human right. Yet financial groups are predicting that water is the next major commodity, to be bought and sold like oil. What few are talking about is the long history of water flowing towards political and social centers, and away from rural populations. As Leith Mullings stated in her presidential address, anthropology pays attention to not only that which is...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Historical Archaeology of Cities: Unearthing Complexity in Urban Landscapes", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Water is undoubtedly an essential element for human life. In cities, it creates and configures an infrastructure that involves nature, networks, materials, discourses, and trades, for its use and disposal. This conference will approach the analysis of the archaeological landscape constituted by the...

Water Mountains and Water Trails: The View from Northwest Peten (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only David Freidel. Mary Jane Acuna. Carlos Chiriboga.

Vernon Scarborough’s path-breaking work on lowland Maya water management has focused attention on the way that the Maya conceptualized and utilized landscape and its water sources for political, religious and economic purposes. Research in northwestern Peten suggests that canoe traffic linked the site of El Achiotal adjacent to the Central Karstic Uplands to the San Pedro Martir River by way of the San Juan River commanded by El Peru-Waka’. The Mirador hill at Waka’ was conceived as a water...

Water, Weather and the Fallacy of the Rationalist - Romanticism dichotomy (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Roland Fletcher.

Angkor, in Cambodia, between the 7th and the 13th century depended on the largest urban water management infrastructure of the agrarian urban world. The key elements of this infrastructure came into being before the global climate transition of the 9th-10th century CE. That infrastructure was vital for coping with the start of the Medieval Warm Phase when other societies around the world experienced severe crises. By the 14th century, some parts of Angkor’s infrastructure were nearly 500 years...
