The Process of Aggregation in the Post-Chacoan Era: A Case Study from the Lower Zuni Region (1995)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Suzanne Eckert.

During the post-Chacoan period (A.D. I 175- 1225) the first aggregated sites in the Zuni Region of the American Southwest were built. This research examines a shift in regional settlement patterns and the reorganization of sociopolitical systems during this initial period of aggregation in the lower Zuni River region. A chronology for the post-Chacoan settlements in the case study area is built using ceramic type data. The results suggest that the process of aggregation in the Zuni region can...

QUESTIONING COMPLEXITY: THE PREHISTORIC HUNTER-GATHERERS OF SAPELO ISLAND, GEORGIA (2006)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Victor D. Thompson.

In this dissertation, I examine trajectories of cultural evolution among complex hunter-gatherers and middle range societies. Broadly, I consider the theoretical issues related to these two areas of study and how we should conceptualize the study of sociocultural evolution in societies organized at this scale. I apply these ideas to the study of the prehistoric hunter-gatherers who occupied Sapelo Island, Georgia, U. S. A. Specifically, I examine the Archaic period (4200 – 3000 B. P.)...

Radiocarbon Dating Early Trade and World System Expansion in Iroquoian Southern Ontario, Canada, AD 1550-1650 (2022)

This will be accomplished by: 1- Establishing an absolute timeframe for the initiation and development of Indigenous-European interaction through Bayesian chronological modeling of high-precision AMS...

The Reconstructing of the Lake Champlain Sidewheel Steamer Champlain II (1997)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Elizabeth Baldwin.

The steamship Champlain II, ex-Oakes Ames, was built as a railroad car transfer ferry in 1868 at Marks Bay, Burlington, Vermont in the private shipyard of Napoleon B. Proctor. The vessel was later converted to a passenger line boat in 1873, but was in service only a few years before she was dramatically wrecked on the night of July 16, 1875. Champlain II holds an important place in the development of steamships on Lake Champlain. This thesis examines the historical and economic background of...

Reinterpreting a Nineteenth Century Dairy Agricultural Landscape (2017)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Jean Cascardi.

Site 44FX0543, located in the western Piedmont region of Fairfax County at Ellanor C. Lawrence Park, has had a long debated function by archaeologists and historians. A problematic interpretation of the site function as an enslaved African American dwelling dating to an unknown temporal period of ownership was the result of misinterpretation of landscape, previous archaeological investigations, and the likely misinformation gained through second-hand oral histories of the parkland. The research...

Resource Stress and Settlement Pattern Change in the Eastern Mimbres Area, Southwest New Mexico (2009)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Karen Schollmeyer.

Dissertation by Karen Gust Schollmeyer based in part on EMAP Mimbres Classic period and Reorganization phase faunal data in tDAR. This dissertation examines the role of resource stress in the dramatic depopulation of large, long-occupied villages in the Mimbres region of the U.S. Southwest.

RITUAL DIVERSITY AND SOCIAL IDENTITIES: A STUDY OF MORTUARY BEHAVIORS AT TEOTIHUACAN (2009)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Sarah Clayton.

The research presented here confronts the issue of ritual variation and its role in structuring the social dynamics of ancient Teotihuacan, a state that dominated central Mexico during the first half-millennium A.D. Most of Teotihuacan’s urban population lived in apartment compounds located across the city, but the nature of these co-residing groups is not well understood. Even less is known about how subordinate settlements beyond the city limits were organized and to what degree they...

Saving Sites: One Looting Step at a Time (2017)

DOCUMENT Full-Text amelia dall.

To be able to preserve looted sites, one must identify the patterns and develop prevention strategies to avoid further looting. The illegal antiquities trade has had its’ roots in the archaeological field since the beginning of time. One of the reasons why looting happens is because of the collectors’ widespread interest in the rich, cultural materials that are found at cultural heritage sites. Therefore, preservation of looted sites is critical in archaeology. The dire threat of looted...

Schwerdt Site (20AE127) Ceramics: a Berrien Phase Ceramic Asssemblage in Allegan County, Michigan (1980)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Paul W. McAllister.

The Schwerdt ceramic assemblage from southwest Michigan presents a local variant of a larger, diverse cultural and ceramic complex known as the Upper Mississippian. This is a Late Woodland temporal phenomenon beginning as early as 700 A.D. (Overstreet 1978) in some areas and continuing into proto-historic times. The temporal and spatial placement of the Schwerdt ceramic assemblage was a highly complex task. It would be an understatement to say that it was just a little confusing to try to sort...

Seasonality and Ecosystem Response in Two Prehistoric Agricultural Regions of Central Arizona (2011)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Jolene Trujillo.

Around the globe, prehistoric agriculture has impacted the environment in ways that are observable today. Prehistoric farmers in the Southwestern US modified the landscape with rock alignments to support rain fed agriculture in this semi-arid region. Numerous studies have shown that former agricultural fields are ecologically different than areas that have not been farmed. This thesis explores the independent effects of the manipulation of rocks into alignments, prehistoric farming, and season...
