This thesis is an intra-site spatial analysis of the chipped stone assemblage recovered between 1997 and 2013 from the site using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology. Previous work on the assemblage from 1997 through 2004 had attempted spatial analysis using traditional statistical methods and found no patterning (O'Horo 2008). Using the expanded database and GIS this thesis identifies multiple spatial patterns in the assemblage with implications on the lifeways practiced at ‘Ais Giorkis. Locating meaningful patterns in the site’s chipped stone assemblage is especially valuable because, unlike in many intra-site spatial analysis projects, the spatial resolution of the data is less than ideal. Given the success of this analysis using low resolution data, the methods used in this thesis have applications to a broad range of archaeological projects. Chief among these are the application of GIS to older excavations and rescue excavations where data resolution is limited to the excavation unit and level due to time or technology constraints. For this reason, the methods used from excavation through geospatial analysis are thoroughly documented within this thesis, including the errors where they can serve as cautionary tales. iii Acknowledgments While the craft of research is often a lonely endeavor, rarely is a work of quality produced strictly by an individual. Many hands have helped shape this product and I would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge them. I am deeply indebted to the members of my committee for the roles they have played in refining the ideas presented herein. Thanks are due to my chair, Prof. Alan Simmons, for inviting the cold stare of my computers onto his site, as well as countless comments and suggestions on both the structure and thought of this thesis. Additional thanks to Prof. Barbara Roth for ensuring that this thesis did not laps into an atheoretical description of technique and results. Of technique, I am greatly indebted to Prof. Karen Harry for her advice and comments on classical statistics, and Prof. Scott Nowicki for his advice on GIS methods. While it should go without saying, I wish to make clear that all errors and offences remain my own. I am eternally grateful to Lorna Dickson Keach, my wife. For leaving her ancestral homeland to sojourn in the Mojave with me, for suffering through the long absences associated with fieldwork and writing, for putting up with the mad ramblings of one possessed by the craft of research, and for holding back our son from my computer’s power button. Words are inadequate to express the thanks she is due; she has been my first reader, my sounding board, and my source of stability throughout this journey. This thesis also owes a debt to all the past members of the Ais Giorkis Project, chiefs and crew—lab and field—undergraduate and graduate, for the work that went into recovering and analyzing the chipped stone assemblage which forms the primary iv database of this thesis. Beyond these, I also wish to thank the current members for their role as sounding board for my ideas on the site and its formation processes. I am thankful to the Cyprus American Archaeological Research Institute (CAARI) and the American Schools of Oriental Research (ASOR) for their support of American archaeology on Cyprus. As well, thanks to the Republic of Cyprus Department of Antiquities for not only allowing but supporting the Ais Giorkis Project. Thank you to Carole McCartney for explaining the identification of lithic raw material on Cyprus to me. Lastly, thanks are due to those who have funded the project and my involvement. For their recent funding of the Ais Giorkis Project, I thank the National Science Foundation, The Wenner-Gren Foundation, and the National Geographic Society. For funding my involvement, I thank the American Schools of Oriental Research’s Platt Fellowship program, the University of Nevada, Las Vegas Graduate and Professional Students Association, University of Nevada, Las Vegas International Programs Department’s Study Abroad Scholarship program, and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas Department of Anthropology’s Angela Nicole Peterson Memorial Scholarship program. Perhaps most importantly, I would like to thank the tax payers of the United States of America for the Webb G.I. Bill, without which I would never have had the opportunity to complete my B.A. degree. v Table of Contents Abstract ............................................................................................................................... ii Acknowledgments ............................................................................................................. iv Table of Contents ............................................................................................................... vi List of Tables ................................................................................................................... xiii List of Figures ................................................................................................................... xv Chapter 1: Introduction ....................................................................................................... 1 1.

  • Architecture As Urban Practice in Contested Spaces
    Intro Socrates Stratis Architecture as Urban Practice in Contested Spaces Introduction Through this essay we will look into the challenge of architecture to support the city commons in contested spaces by establishing relations between modes of reconciliation and processes of urban regeneration. To address such challenge, we need to look into architecture as urban practice, recognizing its inherent non-conflict-free interventional character. Architecture as urban practice in contested spaces has a hybrid character, since its agencies, modes of action, as well as its pedagogical stance, emerge thanks to a tactful synergy across material practices, such as architecture, urban design, planning, visual arts, and Information and Communication Technology. The moving project lies in the heart of architecture as urban practice, since the process of making, the agencies of the materiality of such a process, as well as the emergent actorial relations, get a prominent role. Modes of reconciliation are embedded deep into the making of by establishing platforms of exchange of designerly knowledge to support the project actors’ negotiations, and even change their conflictual postures, especially in contested spaces. By contributing to the city commons, The essay consists of three parts. Firstly, architecture as urban practice may provide we will situate architecture in different alternatives, both to dominant divisive kinds of contested spaces and show how, urban narratives and to the neoliberal urban by withdrawing from the political, it is reconstruction paradigm. The “Hands-on indirectly caught in consolidating politics Famagusta” project, which is the protagonist of division. We will, then, focus on an of this Guide to Common Urban Imaginaries agonistic approach of architecture as practice in Contested Spaces, contributes to such by unpacking its agencies, modes of action, approach, supporting the urban peace- and pedagogies.

  • Maritime Narratives of Prehistoric Cyprus: Seafaring As Everyday Practice
    Journal of Maritime Archaeology (2020) 15:415–450 https://doi.org/10.1007/s11457-020-09277-7(0123456789().,-volV)(0123456789().,-volV) ORIGINAL PAPER Maritime Narratives of Prehistoric Cyprus: Seafaring as Everyday Practice A. Bernard Knapp1 Accepted: 8 September 2020 / Published online: 16 October 2020 Ó The Author(s) 2020 Abstract This paper considers the role of seafaring as an important aspect of everyday life in the communities of prehistoric Cyprus. The maritime capabilities developed by early seafarers enabled them to explore new lands and seas, tap new marine resources and make use of accessible coastal sites. Over the long term, the core activities of seafaring revolved around the exploitation of marine and coastal resources, the mobility of people and the transport and exchange of goods. On Cyprus, although we lack direct material evidence (e.g. shipwrecks, ship representations) before about 2000 BC, there is no question that begin- ning at least by the eleventh millennium Cal BC (Late Epipalaeolithic), early seafarers sailed between the nearby mainland and Cyprus, in all likelihood several times per year. In the long stretch of time—some 4000 years—between the Late Aceramic Neolithic and the onset of the Late Chalcolithic (ca. 6800–2700 Cal BC), most archaeologists passively accept the notion that the inhabitants of Cyprus turned their backs to the sea. In contrast, this study entertains the likelihood that Cyprus was never truly isolated from the sea, and considers maritime-related materials and practices during each era from the eleventh to the early second millennium Cal BC. In concluding, I present a broader picture of everything from rural anchorages to those invisible maritime behaviours that may help us better to understand seafaring as an everyday practice on Cyprus.
