Documents and Data from Hegmon et al. Marking and Making Difference: Representational Diversity in the US Southwest

Summary

Data sets included in this project were created for the article "Marking and Making Difference: Representational Diversity in the US Southwest.". Published in American Antiquity 81(2), 2016, pp. 253-272. By Michelle Hegmon, Jacob Freeman, Keith W. Kintigh, Margaret C. Nelson, Sarah Oas, Matthew A. Peeples, and Andrea Torvinen

The paper is based on data from the Cibola region of the US Southwest, and each (.xlsx) file includes the data for a given time period (Pueblo III, Early Pueblo IV, Late Pueblo IV, Early Prothistoric, Late Protohistoric). The periods are explained in the article.

This collection contains datasets, papers, and project which were generated by research conducted with funding from two National Science Foundation grants. The second grant was an extension of the initial findings and was funded by an NSF Dynamic Coupled Natural and Human Systems Program (#CNH‐1113991).

This paper is a product of the LTVTP project and was funded by an NSF Dynamic Coupled Natural and Human Systems Program (#CNH‐1113991) and concerned how interacting dimensions of social and ecological diversities create both short- and long-term tradeoffs. The research explores which diversity tradeoffs can claim both short-term efficiency and longer-term resilience and will characterize diversity tradeoffs in social-ecological systems that sacrifice longer-term resilience for short-term gains. The research looked for combinations of diversity in ecological landscapes and forms of social organization that make social-ecological systems more or less resilient.
