First dating of a rock painting in Ẓufār (Sultanate of Oman)
We successfully measured four radiocarbon dates on two specimens of a black geometric rock painting with a fragment in jeopardy of naturally spalling off in the wall of a rock shelter in the Ẓufār region, in the south of the Sultanate of Oman. Extraction of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) for radiocarbon dating of the binder in the black pigment of the rock painting specimen was conducted in the plasma oxidation laboratory at the Office of Archeological S…
Premature Oxidation During Argon Plasma Cleaning of Water-Rich Radiocarbon Samples
Plasma oxidation for 14 C sampling utilizes low-pressure (133 Pa), low-energy ( 2 -plasmas generating CO 2 for AMS dating. O 2 -plasmas on empty chambers remove organic contamination. When clean, a new specimen is inserted and Ar-plasmas dislodge adsorbed atmospheric CO 2 from surfaces. Finally, O 2 -plasmas oxidize organic materials to CO 2 for AMS analysis. During some Ar-plasmas we observed anomalous pressure increases and unexpectedly high CO…

Staying warm in the upland southwest
By the very early C.E. in the U.S. Upland Southwest, blankets or robes relying on turkey feathers as the insulating medium began to replace those made with strips of rabbit fur. Feather blankets would have been important possessions of most members of Ancestral Pueblo communities. Analysis of a 99 X 108 cm feather blanket dating approximately to the 1200s C.E. indicates it required over 180 m of yucca fiber cordage and an estimated 11,550 body fe…
Temporal Variation in Obsidian Procurement in the Northern Rio Grande and Its Implications for Obsidian Movement into the San Juan Area
Arakawa and colleagues (2011) use temporal changes in obsidian source patterns to link the late thirteenth-century abandonment of the Mesa Verde region to Ortman's (2010, 2012) model of Tewa migration to the northern Rio Grande. They employ Anthony's (1990) concept of reverse migration, inferring that an increase in Mesa Verde–region obsidian from a specific Jemez Mountain source reflects the scouting of an eventual migration path. Weaknesses of …
Explanations of Population Aggregation in the Mesa Verde Region Prior to A.D. 900
Prominent studies have attributed observed changes in aggregation, settlement organization, and exchange systems to changes in socio-political complexity and often to aspects of leadership. This chapter deals with questions of social complexity while attempting to document and explain changing patterns of social organization in one corner of the Mesa Verde region. More spectacular settlements and evidence of elaborate regional systems characteriz…
Not so Far from Paquimé
This volume, with 11 authors contributing in various combinations to 11 chapters, accomplishes three goals. First, it summarizes and provides an index to the descriptive reports of the Proyecto Arq
Cooking Technologies
Inferences regarding pre-colonial southwestern cooking are limited by preservation and the ambiguity of multiple-use features. Documented techniques are stone boiling, pit roasting, boiling in pottery jars, and heating on comals or griddle stones, with fermentation as an additional food-processing category. The plastic nature of pottery allowed the design of vessel forms specifically for cooking, but storage rather than cooking was the original i…

Years of Cultural Adaptation to Climate Change in the Southwestern United States
Modern concerns with climate change often overlook the extensive history of both climate change and human adaptation over the millennia. While questions of human-climate system causation are important, especially to the extent that our current behavior is driving environmental change, human societies have experienced multiple climate changes in the past, independent of causation. The histories of cultural adaptation to those changes can help us u…

Ceramic Perspectives on Northern Anasazi Exchange
Pueblo I Village Formation
Results of a surface survey of Morris Sites 9. 13, 15, 27, and 33 are presented. Based on mapped surface evidence it appears that Sites 13 (5MT2830) and 33 (5MT2831) together represent a single, nearly continuous line of Pueblo I roomblocks that stretches for over 600 m. Analysis of ceramics from the middens of these sites and other sites 700 m (5MT2829) and 1500 m (5MT2826) to the east demonstrates a primary occupation between A.D. 830–850. Room…
