  • Speculation Made Material: Experimental Archaeology & Maker’S
    Speculation Made Material: Experimental Archaeology & Maker’s Knowledge Adrian Currie Penultimate Version, forthcoming in Philosophy of Science Abstract Experimental archaeology is often understood both as testing hypotheses about processes shaping the archaeological record and as generating tacit knowledge. Considering lithic technologies, I examine the relationship between these conceptions. Experimental archaeology is usefully understood via ‘maker’s knowledge’: archaeological experiments generate embodied know-how enabling archaeological hypotheses to be grasped and challenged, further well- positioning archaeologists to generate integrated interpretations. Finally, experimental archaeology involves ‘material speculation’: the constraints and affordances of archaeologists and their materials shape productive exploration of the capacities of objects and human skill in ways relevant to archaeological questions. Acknowledgements This paper has benefited greatly from feedback from two anonymous reviewers, Lucy Osler, Michelle Turner, Cate Frieman, Assaf Nativ, Bruce Routledge, Alison Wylie, as well as from audiences at ANU’s Synapse seminar series, the ArchWorks Virtual Reading Group and the UC Davis Biolab. 1 1. Introduction When philosophers discuss speculation, it is as a theoretical, imaginative, activity. The generation of ideas and hypotheses is implicitly removed from the material activities of experimentation and observation1. When archaeologists consider experimental archaeology, it is often in a hypothesis-testing mode: archaeologists perform experiments to probe ideas about how past processes shape the material record. I won’t deny the importance of archaeological experiments in validating theories of past processes, nor of theoretical speculation. I’ll highlight sins of omission. Speculation in experimental archaeology is intimately linked with the materiality of the archaeological record and proxies: it is speculation made material.

  • Experimental Archaeology
    School of Human & Environmental Sciences Experimental archaeology Developing experimental approaches in archaeology at Reading What is experimental archaeology? All archaeologists study the fragmentary records of past human activities, which have been formed and modified over long timescales. Yet the traces we find often relate to activities and skills with which we are not familiar. These traces therefore need to be inter- preted in terms of past ways of life and presented to the wider public in an accessible, questioning and engaging way. Experimental archaeology has an important contribu- tion to make to the achievement of both of these goals. For example it may help us to understand how a build- ing represented only by postholes was constructed, while experimental replication helps us to understand how things were made and used in the past. In partic- ular the microscopic wear traces produced by known experimental activities can be compared with those found on ancient tools. Experiment also helps us to understand how the archaeological record is formed: how artefacts are transported by rivers, the changes that take place when a soil is buried or an earthwork weathers, and the inclusion of micro-traces in the sediments of archaeological sites as a result of specific activities. Like all rigorous scientific methodologies, archaeo- logical experiments seek to control variables in order to make precise measurements concerning those elements of particular interest or importance. For instance, excavations may be conducted at defined intervals to measure how an earthwork changes over time. The key is that good experiments are those which are carried out to test particular theories or hypotheses about the past.

  • Conceptual Premises in Experimental Design and Their Bearing on the Use of Analogy: an Example from Experiments on Cut Marks
    Conceptual premises in experimental design and their bearing on the use of analogy: an example from experiments on cut marks Manuel Domı´nguez-Rodrigo Abstract Experimental archaeology embodies a large array of conceptual approaches. In the present work, it is argued that only those methodological approaches maximizing comparability between experiments and case-specific archaeological problems are heuristically scientific. This reduces the range of analogies that can be applied to the past. The adequateness of analogies depends on how the conceptual premises of experiments are designed. A practical example of this is provided through the comparison of referential frameworks created to understand the utility of cut marks to reconstruct butchering behaviors. Keywords Analogy; assumptions; premises; hypothesis testing; cut marks. Introduction Experimental archaeology and actualistic research are integral parts of ‘middle-range’ theory and thus of modern scientific archaeology, which is based on the testing of alternative hypotheses (Binford 1981; Gifford 1981). Hypotheses are framed within specific referential analogs created by careful observation. These referential frameworks are elaborated by controlled documentation of processes in which behaviors of independent agents are understood within their specific contexts and the resulting actions of these agents are diagnosed (Binford 1981; Gifford 1981; Gifford-Gonza´lez 1991; Gould 1965, 1979; Wylie 1982, 1988, 1989). World Archaeology Vol. 40(1): 67–82 Experimental Archaeology ª 2008 Taylor & Francis ISSN 0043-8243 print/1470-1375 online DOI: 10.1080/00438240701843629 68 Manuel Domı´nguez-Rodrigo If there is a hierarchy of principles that can be applied to the components of actualistic research, it can be argued that the most important one is the adequate use of premises (see Wylie 1988) in the elaboration of referential frameworks.

It serves to complement and enhance over a decade of research focused on regional settlement patterns in the Northern Great Basin. While previous studies in the region have focused on broadly based settlement patterns, this study shifted the interpretive lens toward an in-depth analysis of a single family dwelling, which was occupied some 6000 years ago.
