Society for American Archaeology 16(1) January 1998
Society for American Archaeology 16(1) January 1998 "To present Seattle, my goal was to do a systematic survey. My pedestrian transects would be north and south along First, Second, etc., with perpendicular transects along cross streets. In addition to a typical restaurant list, I envisioned presenting the data as a chloropleth map showing the density of (1) coffee shops suitable for grabbing a continental-style breakfast, (2) establishments with large selections of microbrews on tap, and (3) restaurants that smelled really good at dinner time.

NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES LEWIS ROBERTS BINFORD 1931–2011 A Biographical Memoir by DAVID J. MELTZER Any opinions expressed in this memoir are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Academy of Sciences. Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 2011 NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES WASHINGTON, D.C. LEWIS ROBERTS BINFORD November 21, 1931–April 11, 2011 BY DAVID J . MELTZER EWIS R. BINFORD1 WAS THE most influential American Larchaeologist of the 20th century, yet rarely conducted fieldwork, was indifferent to such traditional goals as defining new artifact types or archaeological cultures, and never made a headline-grabbing discovery. For Binford finding things was never as important as finding things out, for he was fore- most a man of bold ideas and strong opinions, and not shy about expressing either. Equipped with a messianic fervor, an extraordinary work ethic, a spellbinding speaking style, and a gale-force personality (he could be utterly charming one moment, fiercely caustic the next), he sought nothing less than the overthrow of mid-20th-century archaeological orthodoxy. Culture history, it was called, and in Binford’s view it scarcely rose above descriptions of artifacts and sites and their placement in time and space, and never grappled with larger questions of how past cultures adapted to their environment or changed over time. Caricature, perhaps, but even in that, there can be truth. Starting in the 1960s Binford pushed, pulled, or otherwise cajoled archaeology into becoming more anthropological, evolutionary, and scientific. His contributions over the next four decades had breadth and depth, and forced a radical retooling of archaeological theory, method, and explanation; 3 4 BIOG RAPHICAL MEMOIRS helped advance work in hunter-gatherer studies, ethnoar- chaeology, zooarchaeology, and archaeological site formation processes (among other areas); and sparked fundamental debates over the nature of early human evolution. -

The Bordes-Binford Debate: Transatlantic Interpretative
THE BORDES-BINFORD DEBATE: TRANSATLANTIC INTERPRETATIVE TRADITIONS IN PALEOLITHIC ARCHAEOLOGY by MELISSA CANADY WARGO Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Arlington in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT ARLINGTON August 2009 Copyright © by Melissa Canady Wargo 2009 All Rights Reserved ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I have had the good fortune to be mentored in my academic and professional life by a few truly dedicated and generous souls. Dr. Frank Harrold, whose patience and kind nature is legendary, has had such a positive influence on my life -- I cannot thank him enough. Dr. Karl Petruso, an extraordinary scholar, has provided invaluable mentoring and advice to me over the years and I am so grateful for his current role on my dissertation committee. Dr. Steven Reinhardt is worthy of so many accolades. I so appreciate his patience and intellect as I have taxed the limits of what most students have likely asked of their dissertation advisors. Thank you! I would be most remiss if I did not extol the personal and professional virtues of Dr. Elisabeth Cawthon, who has a special talent for making each person in her orbit feel special and gifted. Her subtle, but insistent, prodding for me to just get this dissertation done was exactly what I needed, and for that I am most grateful. I would also like to extend my deepest gratitude to several individuals at Western Carolina University who supported me in completing this dissertation. Dr. Kyle Carter gave me the gift of time; for all those Thursdays in the library, thank you. -

Attachment K Amendment 2 to the Jonah Programmatic Agreement
Attachment K Amendment 2 to the Jonah Programmatic Agreement APPENDIX A CULTURAL RESOURCES MANAGEMENT PLAN for the Jonah Gas Field, Sublette County, Wyoming 15, JUNE 2007 Theoretical Perspective. A useful approach to structuring data recovery derives from assumptions inherent in evolutionary ecology (Bettinger 1991). Human behaviors are viewed as being adaptive in the sense that the long term success of a group depends upon knowledge and adaptive behaviors being passed from one generation to the next. In order to focus on archaeological evidence for these behaviors, models based on hunter-gatherer mobility (Binford 1980) and on food (energy) costs are used. Sometimes termed middle range research, these approaches form a bridge between broad theory and the archaeological record. Binford's (1980) observations showing that hunter-gatherers organize along a continuum of strategies between two extremes, foraging and collecting, have laid the groundwork for much debate in archaeology (Gould 1980; Hodder 1986), but have also stimulated a very useful way to view the archaeological record (Binford 1983; Price and Brown 1985; Kelly 1983; 1995; Watson 1986). The forager-collector model and others of a similar nature (e.g. Bettinger and Baumhoff 1982) provide the archaeologist with a powerful set of tools for interpreting archaeological remains. The archaeological record is viewed as being reflective of sets of behaviors used by prehistoric people in their daily lives. Evidence of these behaviors includes tools and facilities, the nature and distribution of refuse produced by tool manufacture and use, and the overall patterning of these remains both within individual sites and over the landscape. Care must be used in interpreting the meaning of the patterning of remains in order to account for various natural and cultural distortions that may have affected this record during the elapsed period of time since the prehistoric activity occurred (e.g., Schiffer 1987). -
