  • Ethnoarchaeological research on earthen buildings in Abruzzo

    Open Access•Gary D Shaffer, Gary Shaffer•ARTICLE•Antiquity•2021

    In 2015 an ethnoarchaeological survey of standing earthen buildings took place near the city of Celano in central Italy's Abruzzo region. The study provided observations relevant to archaeologists interpreting earthen architectural remains in many areas of the world: insights on structural function and the longevity of such buildings

  • An Archaeomagnetic Study of a Wattle and Daub Building Collapse

    Gary D Shaffer•ARTICLE•Journal of Field Archaeology•1993•Cited by: 5•References: 17

    Archaeomagnetic methods, originally developed to assist in the reconstruction of pottery vessels, are applied to the study of sintered remains of Neolithic wattle and daub buildings in Calabria, Italy in order better to understand the circumstances of burning and structural collapse.These Stentinello-culture buildings from Piana di Curinga comprise one of the densest areas of Neolithic settlement known in the western Mediterranean. A spinner magn…

  • A Neolithic Household at Piana di Curinga, Italy

    A J Ammerman, Gary D Shaffer et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Field Archaeology•1988•Cited by: 6•References: 10

    The report gives the first detailed description of an early Neolithic house in the Western Mediterranean. Among the wattle-and-daub structures excavated at Piana di Curinga, a settlement of Impressed Ware Neolithic age located on the Tyrrhenian coast of southern Italy, the best preserved is the one found in Area H at the site. Excavations here have led to the recovery of more than one ton of baked daub fragments representing the walls of the stru…

  • A study of structural stones in Calabria

    Gary D Shaffer•ARTICLE•World Archaeology•1985•Cited by: 3•References: 5

    Stones used in the construction of impressed ware Neolithic, wattle and daub buildings from Calabria, Italy, are examined. The varieties of rocks and minerals are identified as well as their particular functions. An empirical site catchment analysis investigates the procurement of stones by the Neolithic builders. Finally, rock and mineral utilization is compared on inter‐structural and inter‐settlement levels
