Elizabeth Macquarie, a daughter of Campbell of Airds, was the wife of Lachlan Macquarie, the fifth governor of New South Wales
(1810–21). The buildings of Argyll, Scotland, strongly influenced choices made by Elizabeth in the buildings erected during
her husband’s 12-year administration of the colony. By examining these Scottish influences, through theories of landscape
and the transfer of traditional, even “old-fashioned,” architectural styles to this far-flung colony, new layers of meaning
embedded within the landscape of Sydney Cove are disentangled to reveal a deeper understanding of how British cultural identity
was recreated on the far side of the world. 相似文献

In the sixth century after Christ, the Greek cities of Corinth and Thessaloniki were both still centers of imperial Roman
and nascent Christian administrations, ancient population centers protected by high fortification walls. But much of scholarship
continues to portray Thessaloniki as a veritable island of civilization during the next two “dark” centuries, with cities
of southern Greece like Corinth virtually abandoned after earthquakes, plague, and barbarian invasion. Yet recently historians
are reading the few literary sources much more critically, and excavation is also slowly beginning to fill in this gap. Thus
long-known evidence of urban continuity in Thessaloniki along with the fruits of some of these methodological advances can
begin to provide a new model of Dark Age continuity and abandonment for Corinth and other ancient cities of Byzantine Greece. 相似文献

There are regional differences in how archaeologists conduct their research on the Archaic period. The rich array of techniques
and approaches used to examine this period in the West include human behavioral ecology and other evolutionary perspectives,
technological style and aspects of practice theory, neuropsychological theory, and more. Recent research in the Great Basin,
Southwest, Great Plains, Columbia-Fraser Plateau, and coastal California is surveyed to highlight commonalities and differences
in the questions asked of the archaeological data and in the techniques that are used. 相似文献

Spanish colonial archaeology has undergone a fundamental shift since the Columbian Quincentenary due to the adoption of a
bottom-up understanding of colonialism that emphasizes the analysis of local phenomena in a global context and the active
ways in which people negotiated the processes set in motion by the conquest. This review examines five key research foci:
culture change and identity, missionization, bioarchaeology, economics, and investigations of the colonial core. It ends with
a consideration of ongoing challenges posed by the archaeology of colonialism, particularly the relationship of the individual
to broader social processes and the emerging role of comparison. 相似文献

The intensification of fieldwork in northern Mesopotamia, the upper region of the Tigris-Euphrates basin, has revealed two
cycles of expansion and reduction in social complexity between 4400 and 2000 BC. These cycles include developments in social
inequality, political centralization, craft production and economic specialization, agropastoral land use, and urbanization.
Contrary to earlier assessments, many of these developments proceeded independently from the polities in southern Mesopotamia,
although not in isolation. This review considers recent data from excavations and surveys in northern Iraq, northeastern Syria,
and southeastern Turkey with particular attention to how they are used to construct models of early urban polities. 相似文献

The identification of chemical activity residues on archaeological surfaces requires the analysis of large numbers of samples,
which can be costly and time consuming. Researchers wishing to apply sediment chemistry often are confronted with a dilemma
of which technique to use and how to accommodate sediment chemistry into their budget. We propose an approach to the identification
of chemical activity residues in which semiquantitative spot tests, which are cheap, quick, and easy to apply, are employed
as an initial phase of analysis in order to leverage the results of more time-consuming and costly instrumental techniques.
Three examples that pair spot tests with gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy and inductively coupled plasma-optical emission
spectrometry analysis show that spot tests successfully identify areas of interest. This approach can save both time and research
funds. 相似文献

Current research on the carved, pecked, and incised art of Neolithic stelae and passage tombs in Brittany and Ireland has
required the creation of a new method of recording. This new technique has several advantages over traditional recording methods
(tracing and rubbing): It is noninvasive and it allows very precise data acquisition, as well as providing an accurate record
of the carved representations. The present paper describes the four stages of the process and presents its analytical capacities,
using as an example the carved axe from the Table des Marchands passage tomb. 相似文献

Former missions and reserves occupy an increasingly important place in Australian Aboriginal heritage, as sites of recent
memory, ancestral resting-places, and the foci of social action in the present. Since the 1970s heritage managers have drawn
heavily upon archaeological research in reclaiming places such as Ebenezer Mission for Aboriginal descendants as well as the
non-Aboriginal community. This program of research and conservation has been shaped by Aboriginal memories and values that
express the community’s self-understandings and its hopes for the future, in a process that reveals the relationship between
tangible and intangible aspects of the past. 相似文献

This paper serves as an introduction to the special edition of the International Journal of Historical Archaeology on the theme of Scottish historical archaeology in its international context. The introduction aims to provide a context
for the individual papers in the collection by briefly outlining some of the main characteristics of Scottish historical archaeology—as
it has developed in the past, as it is at present and as it might develop in the future. The paper also discusses the ambiguous
relationship between Scottish historical archaeology and wider historical archaeology. 相似文献

Evolutionary ecology is a theoretical framework that has been widely applied to problems in human evolution and prehistory.
Because the approach often focuses on how behavioral adjustments to changing socio-ecological conditions create novel selective
pressures that in turn drive other changes in morphology and behavior, it draws on the same evolutionary logic that underlies
niche construction theory. We illustrate here the important role that niche construction has played in archaeological applications
of evolutionary ecology with two detailed case studies: one from Late Holocene hunter-gatherer populations in Central California
and one from Mimbres-Mogollon agriculturalists in New Mexico. These examples illustrate that evolutionary ecology-based approaches,
with an emphasis on formal predictive modeling, allow for the incorporation of niche construction as it affects model parameters
with reference to specific problems involving past behavior. Further modeling and empirical applications will expand the synergies
between these complementary approaches and advance our understanding of the human past. 相似文献
