L' Earthwork de l'Esquerda. Un experiment sobre processos de formació (1998)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Peter J Reynolds. Imma Ollich i Castanyer. Montserrat de Rocafiguera i Espona. Imma Ollich i Castanyer. María Ocaña i Subirana. Montserrat de Rocafiguera i Espona.

L'esquerda earthwork is an experiment about erosional and depositional processes, that is placed next to the iberian and medieval site of L'Esquerda. The experimental project on the site started in 1991. The construction of a ditch-and-bank structure allows the study of erosional, sedimentary, vegetable colonisation, and final stabilisation patterns. This is a critical information for archaeologists to test their data about ditches and other earthwork structures in prehistoric and historic...

LATE PRE-COLONIAL CIRCULAR VILLAGES IN THE BRAZILIAN STATE OF ACRE (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Sanna-Kaisa Saunaluoma.

The archaeology of Acre has been widely drawing the attention of the scientific community due to the discovery of an ancient civilization building geometric earthworks labeled "geoglyphs". In the course of field surveys realized at the geoglyph sites other types of archaeological sites were documented as well, including sites consisting of small artificial earthen mounds arranged in a circular form. At first, the mound sites were also classified as geoglyphs, but through the recent fieldwork it...

Lidar Predictive Modeling of Kalapuya Mound Sites in the Calapooia Watershed, Oregon (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Tia Cody. Shelby Anderson.

This is an abstract from the "Future Directions for Archaeology and Heritage Research in the Willamette Valley, Oregon" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This presentation details the development, testing, and results of a lidar and remote sensing predictive model to locate precontact mound sites in the Calapooia Watershed in the Willamette Valley, Oregon. Not much is known about these mound sites archaeologically, including where they are located in...

More to the (Poverty) Point: Investigation of a Previously Unknown Mound (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Diana Greenlee. Rinita Dalan. Thurman Allen.

Poverty Point, recently inscribed onto the UNESCO World Heritage List, is a monumental earthworks site built ca. 3700-3100 BP by hunter-fisher-gatherers. Until very recently, the original Late Archaic configuration was believed to include four mounds; six concentric, semi-elliptical, earthen ridges; and a large interior plaza. A fifth mound was added about 1800 years later. In August 2013, a small, suspicious rise in the woods on the northeast edge of the Poverty Point monumental core was...

A Multi-instrument Geophysical Survey Comparing the Effects of Plowing on the Geophysical Signatures of a Precontact Earthwork in Perry County, Ohio (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Alexandra Flores. Jarrod Burks.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Ohio is home to a significant number of precontact period earthworks—mounds and enclosures—many of which have been affected by plowing to various degrees. While magnetometer surveys have produced remarkable images of earthwork ditches and embankments in the Middle Ohio Valley, few other instrument types have been employed. For this study, magnetometry,...

Mutable materials and gathering worlds (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Christopher Watts.

Owing to a plethora of recent and ever more divergent scholarship on materiality, the lens through which we view the ontological status of things has become increasingly opaque. New thinking about the ways in which materials are always and already in flux compels us to consider how seemingly obdurate things can, paradoxically, transcend their own solidity. To this we may add a budding concern with the immaterial – regimes of light and sound, for example, and their mutability – and the extent to...

The Search for Places in Southwestern Archaeology: Ancient Landscape Building in the Madeira and Purus Basins and Long-Term Indigenous History (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Francisco Antonio Pugliese.

Mounds, ditches, roads and other kinds of earthworks are found in ever larger quantities in southwestern amazon archaeology. An increase in the quantity and quality of research carried out in this area and the more detailed data that was recently made available have changed our understanding of the kind and degree of human interaction with the environment. Today, archaeological landscape building in this region can be explored in a more regionally detailed framework, since the knowledge produced...

Sol de Campinas Site and the Cultural Variability in Southwestern Amazon: moundbuilders and archaeological earthworks in Acre State – Brazil (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Francisco Antonio Pugliese Jr.. Carlos Augusto Zimpel Neto. Thiago Berlanga Trindade. Tiago Hermenegildo. Laura Pereira Furquim.

The central area of Sol de Campinas site is composed by fifteen mounds, disposed at an elliptic arch, surrounding a plaza with an area of almost 15.000m². The site is geographically related to other earthworks of southwestern Amazon, known as geoglyphs in Acre, Rondonia and Amazonas Brazilian states. Although it shows similar attributes to other places in the region, such as its geometrical forms and "roads" structured from the peripherical portions of the site, its main structures are composed...

Stabilization and Preservation of DoD-owned Military Fortifications (Legacy 05-239)

PROJECT Douglas Cubbison.

This project evaluated the different materials of military fortifications and particular conditions created by military fortifications in which a range of different materials are integrated, causing challenging preservation scenarios. The report offers integrated, proven sets of procedures to preserve and stabilize fortifications.

Variability in Large-Area Magnetic Surveys at Hopewell Earthworks and the Challenges of Big Data (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jarrod Burks.

Many Ohio Hopewell earthworks present an interesting challenge to archaeological geophysics: they are very large and contain vast amounts of what seems to be empty space. Both have limited our understanding of the breadth of the archaeological record at these complex sites; that is, until very recently. Large-area surveys at three Hopewell earthwork complexes in Ross County, Ohio (Hopewell Mound Group, High Bank Works, and Hopeton Works, ca. 30 ha each), have uncovered a wealth of new features,...

Wm. Jerald Kennedy’s Legacy of Archaeology in Palm Beach County, Florida (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Ryan Wheeler.

In the spring of 1989 Jerry Kennedy hired me to conduct fieldwork for the first archaeological reconnaissance survey of Palm Beach County. I drove around the county in Florida Atlantic University’s late 1980s model Ford Taurus wagon with a list from the Florida Master Site File, attempting to revisit as many sites as possible. The station wagon endured a fair bit of off road driving, including an excursion into the South Florida Water Management District’s newly establish DuPuis Environmental...
