Biocultural Taphonomies and Analysis of an Emerging Terminal Classic (750–900 CE) Maya Deathway
Open AccessSaige Kelmeli, John P Walden et al.ARTICLEJournal of Archaeological Method…2025Citada por: 2Referencias: 27
In bioarchaeology, funerary taphonomy and preservation become part of the biocultural narrative of the dead. We evaluate the role of these factors in reconstructing the identities of those buried in an emerging deathway, the ventrally placed legs flexed (VPLF) burial position, during the Terminal Classic (750–900/1000 CE) period at the Maya polity of Lower Dover in western Belize. The term “VPLF” describes a divergent burial practice which may ha…

Identifying social thresholds and measuring social achievement in social-ecological systems
Open AccessLansing Y Perng, John Walden et al.ARTICLEMarine Policy2023
In marine social-ecological systems (SESs), environmental and human-induced stressors can push ecosystems from a high-functioning state into a new, often undesirable state (i.e., regime shift) with limited delivery of ecological goods and services (e.g., high to low fisheries production). While ecological regime shifts are well studied, social regime shifts within SESs are underexplored. Socioeconomic indicators were used to identify thresholds a…
Shell Games
Open AccessMichael Biggie, John P Walden et al.ARTICLELatin American Antiquity2023Citada por: 5Referencias: 5
Recent excavations at the ancient Maya minor center of Tutu Uitz Na in the Belize River Valley revealed an especially large—about 20 million shells—Middle Preclassic (900–300 BC) shell deposit underlying the plaza. Although marine shell species make up a small percentage of the assemblage, most shells are Pachychilus spp., a common freshwater snail known in the southern Maya Lowlands as jute . This report describes the architectural context and a…

Thirty-Two Years of Integrating Archaeology and Heritage Management in Belize
Open AccessJulie A Hoggarth, Jaime J Awe et al.ARTICLEHeritage2020Citada por: 2Referencias: 9
Since its inception in 1988, the Belize Valley Archaeological Reconnaissance (BVAR) Project has had two major foci, that of cultural heritage management and archaeological research. While research has concentrated on excavation and survey, the heritage management focus of the project has included the preservation of ancient monuments, the integration of archaeology and tourism development, and cultural heritage education. In this paper, we provid…

The use of mineral magnetic analyses as an aid in investigating the recent volcanic disturbance history of the Krakatau Islands, Indonesia
Open AccessJohn Walden, Robert J Whittaker et al.ARTICLEThe Holocene1991Referencias: 3
The recent disturbance of vegetation on islands within the Krakatau group, Indonesia, by a succession of ash falls from Anak Krakatau, has complicated studies of tropical ecosystem recovery since the major eruption of 1883 provided a 'clean slate'. Mineral magnetic analyses are applied to a series of ash/soil profiles from Sertung, Panjang and Rakata Islands to determine whether the technique can provide a means of stratigraphic correlation of ho…
