Phytolith assemblages reflect variability in human land use and the modern environment
Phytoliths preserved in soils and sediments can be used to provide unique insights into past vegetation dynamics in response to human and climate change. Phytoliths can reconstruct local vegetation in terrestrial soils where pollen grains typically decay, providing a range of markers (or lack thereof) that document past human activities. The ca. 6 million km 2 of Amazonian forests have relatively few baseline datasets documenting changes in phyto…
Defining Measures in Community-Based Archaeology in Suriname
Teaching Archaeological Heritage Management. Towards a Change in Paradigms
The concept of archaeological heritage management (AHM) has been key to wider archaeological research and preservation agendas for some decades. Many universities and other education providers now offer what is best termed heritage management education (HME) in various forms. The emphasis is commonly on archaeological aspects of heritage in a broad sense and different terms are often interchangeable in practice. In an innovative working-conferenc…

Maroon Archaeology Is Public Archaeology
Kumako
The author is exploring the site of Kumako in Suriname, a destination for Maroons escaping from plantations in coastal Suriname between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. She finds evidence for a structured settlement, distinctive pottery and local ritual practices, raising new questions about the degree of interaction and acculturation between Maroons and indigenous people
Saramaka Maroon Community Environmental Heritage
The Saramaka, a tribal group living in Suriname, accused the Surinamese government of allowing multi-national logging enterprises to harvest timber from traditional Saramaka territory. In addition to this violation of human rights, the government did not provide a plan following the destruction of Saramaka collective property. In response, the Association of Saramaka Authorities submitted a petition to the Inter-American Commission claiming the g…
Archaeological Investigation of Suriname Maroon Ancestral Communities
The following report outlines archaeological findings from two eighteenth-century Maroon ancestral settlements in Suriname, South America. Maroons are descendants of escaped slaves and their social development presents a unique perspective of African-Diaspora material culture. The initial objective of the archaeological research was to identify, survey and excavate ancestral settlements for artifacts depicting kin-group divisions and clustering a…

Effects of Reading Motivation on the Belief in and Consumption of Newspapers among Youth
A motivational model of newspaper consumption was elaborated. In this model, reading motives are supposed to generate certain beliefs in newspapers. The belief in the satisfying properties of a newspaper is based on an evaluation of how well the attributes of a newspaper are expected to match the motives of individuals. Once a match between the motives and the belief is established, then motivation is triggered, and newspaper consumption should o…
Attitudes toward Death
Attitudes toward death is a subject largely overlooked by psychology. This article reports on the development of a Likert-type scale measuring attitude toward death. Item analysis produced 32 items, with a corrected split-half reliability coefficient of .92. The scale did not predict differences between donors and professors and did not relate to age, sex, or self-esteem. It did, however, correlate negatively with religiosity, level of education,…
