Four excavated sites span the time period from A.D. 1050 to 1330. These research domains are investigated by examining technological change and variation in use-wear in the ground stone assemblage. Evidence suggests that although raw material selection was generally consistent throughout this period, there were significant changes in the use of ground stone tools. These changes are especially pronounced in grinding equipment and pottery polishing stones, possibly representing changes in the organization of subsistence and craft production. A comparative approach to assessing the possibility of Kayenta Anasazi migration to the area is also presented. 11 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION Although ground stone technology has often been a neglected subject, examination of variation in ground stone manu&cturing within individual sites or regions can be a valuable source of information about how prehistoric inhabitants adapted to their envirorunent, processed foods, and participated in craft economies. Early interest in ground stone technology in the U.S. Southwest focused primarily on the technological development of mano and metates (Bartlett 1933), which is not surprising given that subsistence production and processing occupied a central role in the lives of historic and prehistoric Pueblo groups.

  • Prehistoric Grinding Tools As Metaphorical Traces of the Past Cecilia Lidström Holmberg
    123 Prehistoric Grinding Tools as Metaphorical Traces of the Past Cecilia Lidström Holmberg The predominant interpretation of reciprocating grinding tools is generally couched in terms of low archaeological value, anonymity, simplicity, functionality and daily life of women. It is argued that biased opinions and a low form-variability have conspired to deny grinding tools all but superficial attention. Saddle-shaped grinding tools appear in the archaeological record in middle Sweden at the time of the Mesolithic — Neolithic transition. It is argued that Neolithic grinding tools are products of intentional design. Deliberate depositions in various ritual contexts reinforce the idea of grinding tools as prehistoric metaphors, with functional and symbolic meanings interlinked.

  • Morphological Changes in Starch Grains After Dehusking and Grinding
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Morphological changes in starch grains after dehusking and grinding with stone tools Received: 1 June 2018 Zhikun Ma1,2, Linda Perry3,4, Quan Li2 & Xiaoyan Yang2,5 Accepted: 8 November 2018 Research on the manufacture, use, and use-wear of grinding stones (including slabs and mullers) can Published: xx xx xxxx provide a wealth of information on ancient subsistence strategy and plant food utilization. Ancient residues extracted from stone tools frequently exhibit damage from processing methods, and modern experiments can replicate these morphological changes so that they can be better understood. Here, experiments have been undertaken to dehusk and grind grass grain using stone artifacts. To replicate ancient activities in northern China, we used modern stone tools to dehusk and grind twelve cultivars of foxtail millet (Setaria italica), two cultivars of broomcorn millet (Panicum miliaceum) and three varieties of green bristlegrass (Setaira viridis). The residues from both used and unused facets of the stone tools were then extracted, and the starch grains studied for morphological features and changes from the native states. The results show that (1) Dehusking did not signifcantly change the size and morphology of millet starch grains; (2) After grinding, the size of millet starch grains increases up to 1.2 times larger than native grains, and a quarter of the ground millet starch grains bore surface damage and also exhibited distortion of the extinction cross. This indicator will be of signifcance in improving the application of starch grains to research in the functional inference of grinding stone tools, but we are unable to yet distinguish dehusked forms from native.

S. A. RECENTLY DATED PUEBLO RUINS IN ARIZONA By EMIL W. HAURY AND LYNDON L. HARGRAVE (WITH 27 PLATES) FOREWORD In 1921 the National Geographic Society began excavation and study of Pueblo Bonito, a prehistoric ruin in Chaco Canyon, north- western New Mexico. It was the privilege of the undersigned to direct these archeological investigations from their inception to the conclusion of actual field-work in the autumn of 1927. Pueblo Bonito is unquestionably the finest extant example of that phase of southwestern history known to archeologists as Pueblo III— the period during which small, isolated villages were drawn together into large, complex communities. After a time these communities began to disintegrate ; to separate into lesser groups that spread far and wide in search of more fertile fields and freedom from the attacks of nomadic enemies. Then came, in 1540, Coronado and his fellow adventurers to initiate the Spanish conquest of the Southwest ; to bring about still further disintegration of the peaceful Pueblo tribes and their unique social organization. This Spanish-dominated phase of Pueblo history, from 1540 to the present, is commonly designated Pueblo V.

I first thank my professors at Pennsylvania State University where I received my undergraduate education. Dean Snow, Claire McHale-Milner, George Milner, and Heath Anderson introduced me to archaeology, and Alan Walker introduced me to human evolution and paleoanthropology. They encouraged me to continue in anthropology after graduating from Happy Valley. I was fortunate enough to do fieldwork in Koobi Fora, Kenya with professors Jack Harris and Carolyn Dillian, amongst others in 2008. Northern Kenya is a beautiful place and participating in fieldwork there was an amazing experience. Being there gave me research opportunities that I completed for my Master’s thesis at New Mexico State University. Carolyn deserves a special acknowledgement because she taught me about the interesting questions that can be asked with sourcing obsidian artifacts.

  • New Approaches to Old Stones Approaches to Anthropological Archaeology Series Editor: Thomas E
    New Approaches to Old Stones Approaches to Anthropological Archaeology Series Editor: Thomas E. Levy, University of California, San Diego Editorial Board: Guillermo Algaze, University of California, San Diego Geoffrey E. Braswell (University of California, San Diego) Paul S. Goldstein, University of California, San Diego Joyce Marcus, University of Michigan This series recognizes the fundamental role that anthropology now plays in archaeology and also integrates the strengths of various research paradigms that characterize archaeology on the world scene today. Some of these different approaches include ‘New’ or ‘Processual’ archaeology, ‘Post- Processual’, evolutionist, cognitive, symbolic, Marxist, and historical archaeologies. Anthropological archaeology accomplishes its goals by taking into account the cultural and, when possible, historical context of the material remains being studied. This involves the development of models concerning the formative role of cognition, symbolism, and ideology in human societies to explain the more material and economic dimensions of human culture that are the natural purview of archaeological data. It also involves an understanding of the cultural ecology of the societies being studied, and of the limitations and opportunities that the environment (both natural and cultural) imposes on the evolution or devolution of human societies. Based on the assumption that cultures never develop in isolation, Anthropological Archaeology takes a regional approach to tackling fundamental issues concerning past cultural

  • KIVA INDEX: Volumes 1 Through 83
    1 KIVA INDEX: Volumes 1 through 83 This index combines five previously published Kiva indexes and adds index entries for the most recent completed volumes of Kiva. Nancy Bannister scanned the indexes for volumes 1 through 60 into computer files that were manipulated for this combined index. The first published Kiva index was prepared in 1966 by Elizabeth A.M. Gell and William J. Robinson. It included volumes 1 through 30. The second index includes volumes 31 through 40; it was prepared in 1975 by Wilma Kaemlein and Joyce Reinhart. The third, which covers volumes 41 through 50, was prepared in 1988 by Mike Jacobs and Rosemary Maddock. The fourth index, compiled by Patrick D. Lyons, Linda M. Gregonis, and Helen C. Hayes, was prepared in 1998 and covers volumes 51 through 60. I prepared the index that covers volumes 61 through 70. It was published in 2006 as part of Kiva volume 71, number 4. Brid Williams helped proofread the index for volumes 61 through 70. To keep current with our volume publication and the needs of researchers for on-line information, the Arizona Archaeological and Historical Society board decided that it would be desirable to add entries for each new volume as they were finished. I have added entries for volumes 71 through 83 to the combined index. It is the Society's goal to continue to revise this index on a yearly basis. As might be expected, the styles of the previously published indexes varied, as did the types of entries found. I changed some entries to reflect current terminology.
