The “In the Shadow of Giants,” theme for this year’s meeting celebrates these “giants” and the tribes that lived among them, the Yokuts, Western Mono, Tubatulabal, Kawaiisu, and Monache. It also acknowledges the “giants” who worked in the area, ethnographers Kroeber, Gayton, Harrington, and Steward as well as archaeologists Bennyhoff, Fenenga, Meighan, Riddell and Wallace. The 2014 Plenary will examine how we all move through the shadows of the archaeologists, ethnographers, preservationists, and Native Californians who came before us, and how this struggle from the first discovery to assessment and action leads to greater perception and insight and ultimately of a greater understanding of the past. By critically examining the work that came before us we expand and enrich our perception of the cultural ecological resources that we study today. With this expanded perception, we also pause a moment to say thank you to those who preserved the resources that we study. 5 | Society for California Archaeology Annual Meeting 2014 Events Workshops Workshop #1: Intro Comparative Osteology Instructor: Melanie M. Beasley — UCSD Thursday, March 20, 9-12 am, Mineral King A & B Encountering human or non-human bone in the field is something many of us experience. This hands-on workshop is designed to help archaeologists and monitors get acquainted with basic osteological identification methods. The workshop will use comparative materials to focus on identifying human versus non-human bone. This course is a basic introduction to the skeleton and features that can be useful for differentiating human from other mammal bone. Workshop #2: Advanced Human Osteology Instructor: Melanie M. Beasley — UCSD Thursday, March 20, 1:30-4:30 pm, Mineral King A & B Often we encounter human bone in the field and it is the only opportunity to capture information to contribute to the analysis and interpretation of human remains. This hands-on workshop is designed to help archaeologists and monitors recognize the key features to distinguish sex, age, ancestry, and distinguishing life history features. This workshop is not intended as a substitute for consulting with a biological anthropologist for the analysis of remains, but rather to equip archaeologists to recover and recognize information that is important for skeletal analysis that is sometimes lost after remains are removed from the field context. Emphasis will be placed on what information can be gained from highly fragmented human remains. Public Archaeology Thursday, March 20, 7:00-10:00 pm Charter Oak Ballroom This year’s public archaeology event is an archaeology fair consisting of archaeology films, living history, flint knapping and basketry demonstrations, information tables from a variety of groups. Reception/Silent Auction Friday, March 21, 6:30-10:00 pm International Agriculture-Center in Tulare The 2014 Silent Auction and Wine/Beer Tasting Event will be held at the Antique Farm Equipment Museum and AgVentures! Learning Center at the International Agriculture-Center in Tulare. The museum and Learning Center are rich with knowledge and history of farming and ranching. Fully restored antique tractors, implements and other farm equipment are showcased in the museum. A trip to the museum is like a step back in time. This will be a fun (and even educational) venue for the Silent Auction! Again this year, there will be plenty of food and space to move around. Let’s Do Lunch Saturday, March 22nd at 12pm – Meet at registration. This event pairs students with more senior members for lunch, providing students an opportunity to meet an archaeological professional and ask them questions about getting a job, building a resume, or getting into graduate school. Pairing people up at random gives students a chance to Society for California Archaeology Annual Meeting 2014 | 6 meet professionals that they might not otherwise meet at the meeting. This also gives the senior members of our society a chance to mentor the next generation of California archaeologists and pass along knowledge about how to be successful in the field. The regular member is asked to “treat” the student member by buying them lunch. While regular members will be paired with a single student,

    Wilderness Visitors and Recreation Impacts: Baseline Data Available for Twentieth Century Conditions

    United States Department of Agriculture Wilderness Visitors and Forest Service Recreation Impacts: Baseline Rocky Mountain Research Station Data Available for Twentieth General Technical Report RMRS-GTR-117 Century Conditions September 2003 David N. Cole Vita Wright Abstract __________________________________________ Cole, David N.; Wright, Vita. 2003. Wilderness visitors and recreation impacts: baseline data available for twentieth century conditions. Gen. Tech. Rep. RMRS-GTR-117. Ogden, UT: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 52 p. This report provides an assessment and compilation of recreation-related monitoring data sources across the National Wilderness Preservation System (NWPS). Telephone interviews with managers of all units of the NWPS and a literature search were conducted to locate studies that provide campsite impact data, trail impact data, and information about visitor characteristics. Of the 628 wildernesses that comprised the NWPS in January 2000, 51 percent had baseline campsite data, 9 percent had trail condition data and 24 percent had data on visitor characteristics. Wildernesses managed by the Forest Service and National Park Service were much more likely to have data than wildernesses managed by the Bureau of Land Management and Fish and Wildlife Service. Both unpublished data collected by the management agencies and data published in reports are included. Extensive appendices provide detailed information about available data for every study that we located. These have been organized by wilderness so that it is easy to locate all the information available for each wilderness in the NWPS. Keywords: campsite condition, monitoring, National Wilderness Preservation System, trail condition, visitor characteristics The Authors _______________________________________ David N.

  • Green Access and Equity for Orange County

    Green Access and Equity for Orange County

    HEALTHY PARKS, SCHOOLS AND COMMUNITIES: Green Access and Equity for Riverside County ABOUT THIS REPORT This policy report is a summary for Riverside County of The City Project’s 2011 report, Healthy Parks, Schools, and Communities: Mapping Green Access and Equity for Southern California, which maps and analyzes green access and equity in nine counties in Southern California—Los Angeles, Orange, Ventura, San Bernardino, Riverside, San Diego, Kern, Santa Barbara and Imperial—using narrative and legal analyses, geographic information system (GIS) mapping tools, and demographic and economic data. Unlike other studies, which plot either green space or population, the maps in this report plot green space in relation to population and other metrics that indicate accessibility, such as distance to the park. This report also provides multidisciplinary analyses of the vital benefits of parks and other green space to people and the environment. It describes the consequences of disparities in green access and the benefits that could be reaped in “park poor” and “income poor” communities if resources were fairly allocated. It concludes with recommendations for equitable investments in green space in Riverside County and throughout California and the nation. The goal of this work is to combine research and analyses with effective outreach to provide concerned citizens, community groups, elected and other government officials, planners, funders and other stakeholders with the best available information upon which to prioritize actions and decisions that positively impact green access and quality of life for all. Together we can help children be active, eat well, stay healthy and do their best in school and life.

    Rice Valley Groundwater Basin Bulletin 118

    Colorado River Hydrologic Region California’s Groundwater Rice Valley Groundwater Basin Bulletin 118 Rice Valley Groundwater Basin • Groundwater Basin Number: 7-4 • County: Riverside, San Bernardino • Surface Area: 189,000 acres (295 square miles) Basin Boundaries and Hydrology This groundwater basin underlies Rice Valley in northeast Riverside and southeast San Bernardino Counties. Elevation of the valley floor ranges from about 675 feet above sea level near the center of the valley to about 1,000 feet along the outer margins. The basin is bounded by nonwater- bearing rocks of the Turtle Mountains on the north, the Little Maria and Big Maria Mountains on the south, the Arica Mountains on the west, and by the West Riverside and Riverside Mountains on the east. Low-lying alluvial drainage divides form a portion of the basin boundaries on the northwest and northeast, and the Colorado River bounds a portion of the basin on the east. Maximum elevations of the surrounding mountains range to about 2,000 feet in the Arica Mountains, about 3,000 feet in the Big Maria Mountains, and 5,866 feet at Horn Peak in the Turtle Mountains (Bishop 1963; Jennings 1967; USGS 1971a, 1971b, 1983a, 1983b, 1983c). Annual average precipitation ranges from about 3 to 5 inches. Surface runoff from the mountains drains towards the center of the valley, except in the eastern part of the valley, where Big Wash drains to the Colorado River (USGS 1971a, 1971b, 1983a, 1983b, 1983c). Hydrogeologic Information Water Bearing Formations Alluvium is the water-bearing material that forms the basin and includes unconsolidated Holocene age deposits and underlying unconsolidated to semi-consolidated Pleistocene deposits (DWR 1954, 1963).

    The Chronological Period Is a Temporal Unito There Is a Wealth of Material on Late Pre-Columbian Middle America Available Sin the Chronicles and Codices

    THE POSTCLASSIC STAGE IN MESOAMERICA Jane Holden INTRODUCTION The subject of inquiry in this paper is the PostcLassic stage in Middle America. As used by prehistorians, the term "Postclassic" has referred to either a developmental stage or to a chronological period. These two con- cepts are quite different, both operationally and theoretically. The stage concept in contemporary usage is a classificatory device for st,udying cul- ture units in terms of developmental and theoretical problems. For com- parative purposes, a stage is usually defined in broad and diffuse terms, in order to outline a culture type. A developmental stage is not tempor- c3lyl detined although it is necessarily a function of relative time. The chronological period on the other hand is defined through the temporal alignment of culture units and establishes the historical contemporaneity of those units. Thus the developmental stage is a typological device and the chronological period is a temporal unito There is a wealth of material on late pre-Columbian Middle America available sin the chronicles and codices. However, the study of such mater- ials. is a ppecialty in itself, hence only a minimum of historical informa- tion *ill be presented in this paper and this will be of necessity, based on secondary sources. The following procedure will be employed in this paper. First, brief summaries of formal statements by various authors on the developmental stage concept will be presented, as well as some temporal classifications of the Postclassic. Secondly, the available archaeological evidence will be summarized to provide a temporal framework. And finally, consideration will be given to the implications derived from the comparison of the Post- classic as a temporal category and as a developmental stage.

    28 ARQUEOLOGÍA 43 enero-abril 2010 Leticia González Arratia* La etapa lítica y las categorías utilizadas en México y Estados Unidos para designar las etapas arqueológicas más antiguas El presente artículo analiza el concepto de etapa lítica y sus subdivisiones (arqueolítico, cenolítico, protoneolítico), que el prehistoriador José Luis Lorenzo introdujo en 1969 como una forma de organizar de manera sistemática los más antiguos materiales arqueológicos de la lítica tallada y pulida, conocidos hasta esa época en México. Dichos materiales abarcan la eta- pa que se inicia con la llegada del hombre antiguo a este territorio (como cazador-recolector), hasta el momento en que las sociedades prehispánicas —con el paso de los milenios y con su conocimiento del territorio— inician el cultivo de sus alimentos. También se incluye el tema de la clasificación y periodización de los materiales líticos de dicha época, según lo exponen los arqueólogos estadounidenses Gordon Willey y Alex Krieger. Finalmente, se lleva a cabo una primera reflexión sobre el uso de la nomenclatura empleada por la arqueología mexicana en el norte de México, misma que se basa en los planteamientos, cronología y nomenclatura aplicada en Texas. Lo anterior constituye un problema, pues al retomar conceptos y cate- gorías de la arqueología estadounidense, se ignora la historia misma del desarrollo de la ar- queología mexicana. Esto se plantea como hipótesis de que dicha situación limita y afecta el desarrollo y originalidad de lo que la arqueología del norte de México pueda estudiar. The article discusses the notion of the Lithic Stage and its subdivisions (Archaeolithic, Ceno- lithic, Protoneolithic) proposed in 1969 by pre-historian José Luis Lorenzo, who introduced it as a means of systematically organizing the most ancient archaeological carved and polished lithic material known up to that time in Mexico.
