  • Firefly synchronicity and platform mound building by indigenous peoples of the Florida Peninsula, USA

    Thomas J Pluckhahn, Kendal Jackson et al.•ARTICLE•World Archaeology•2023•Cited by: 1•References: 60

    Although archaeologists often highlight the capacity of our field to identify broad-scale patterning in human societies, critiques of social evolution led many to focus on shorter-term, local histories. Drawing from a recent review of alternative models, we employ firefly synchronicity – the rhythmic coordination of flashing observed in some species of bioluminescent fireflies – as a model for understanding patterning in the timing of platform mo…

  • Terraforming and monumentality in hunter-gatherer-fisher societies: Towards a conceptual and analytical framework

    Colin Grier, M Schwadron•ARTICLE•Hunter Gatherer Research•2017

    Terraforming and monumentality have been integral to the practices of many hunter-gatherer-fisher (HGF) societies around the world. Both mobile and sedentary HGFs were capable of producing large, planned mound complexes, expansive production and defensive features, and other types of landscape modifications. We present a framework for approaching these practices, in an attempt to break down lingering conceptual barriers in the way HGFs have been …

  • Shell works: Prehistoric terraformed communities of the Ten Thousand Islands, Florida

    M Schwadron•ARTICLE•Hunter Gatherer Research•2017

    The Ten Thousand Islands region of southwest Florida contains extensive prehistoric shell midden sites called shell works that comprise some of the largest and most complicated prehistoric shell constructions in the world. These terraformed landscapes reflect a unique prehistoric tradition of shell-built architecture and large-scale landscape construction. Traditionally, shell work sites were considered little more than large midden accumulations…
