Evolutionary Archaeology: Methodological Issues
An Analytic Strategy for Studying Assemblage-Scale Ceramic Variation: A Case Study from Southeast Missouri
For ceramic assemblages composed exclusively of sherds, inferences at the scale of artifact are often problematic. Drawing on information provided by experimental studies, observations can be made such that technology and use are expressed at the scale of assemblage. A simple classification is used to describe variation in paste composition for an assemblage of shell-tempered ceramics from southeast Missouri. Using these classes as a set of analy…
Generalized Core Technology and Tool Use: A Mississippian Example
Generalized core technologies are commonly regarded as relatively unstructured chipped-stone technologies, lacking a standardized set of products; flakes display no consistent set of formal or technological attributes and cores are described as amorphous. Cores are reduced in a relatively unsystematic manner and flakes are then used, usually without any modification. This paper examines the technological structure and patterns of tool use for a g…
Size distributions of artifact classes: Combining macro‐and micro‐fractions
The size and composition of microartifacts (objects less than 2 mm) and macroartifacts (objects greater than 2 mm) are utilized to interpret the formational processes of an archaeological site. Because grain‐size distributions are known to reflect mode of transport and source, the attribute of size is examined by plotting each artifact class (unmodified rock, modified rock, ceramic, concretion, bone/shell, and metal) in size frequency diagrams. t…
