The long and short of it : the reliability and inter-populational applicability of stature regression equations

Creator:: McCarthy, Donna
Abstract:: In this thesis, stature reconstruction of three prehistoric/protohistoric Native American populations (from Alaska, the Aleutian Islands, and South Dakota) was performed using the Fully Anatomical method in order to formulate regression equations and analyze the ability of regression equations of other researchers to accurately estimate the statures within my study...

Dust storm transport of pathogenic microbes to Viking Scandinavia : a query into possible environmental vectors or disease pathogenesis in a closed biological and ecological system

Creator:: Boling, David Carter
Abstract:: This thesis is an integrated study that links several disciplines-archaeology, anthropology, geography, atmospheric sciences, and microbiology. It attempts to generate an argument that central to climate change is disequilibrium in human ecologies- in my case, disease ecologies in Iceland during the 15th century. This thesis investigates the environment's effect on...

The benefits of diversified agricultural systems among Maya Mopan farmers in southern Belize

Creator:: Hofbauer, Derek M.
Abstract:: Maya Mopan farmers in southern Belize face socio-economic hardships, persisting environmental constraints, and an unfavorable political climate that has prevented land tenure stability on reservation lands. This thesis describes the agricultural practices of a group of Mopan farmers and examines farm-site diversification and its relationship to ecological knowledge, out-migration, agricultural...

Abstract:: Ireland's Catholic Church played an important role in the turn-of-the-century nationalism that shaped James Joyce's identity and writing; yet it also played an important part in preventing that nationalism from achieving its goals of autonomy and cultural independence. For Joyce, this was particularly evident in the dialects and thought structures...

An analysis of fission product gamma spectra : the use of nuclear systematics to estimate gamma spectra

Creator:: Holter, Gene David
Abstract:: The gamma contribution to reactor afterheat depends on gamma energy since high-energy commas are more likely to escape from tilt. fuel. The objective of this work is to investigate the gamma-energy spectrum of a pure U-235 fission reactor. Fission-product nuclides are first listed in order' of importance as contributors to...

Taphonomy of cervids of a Southern Oregon coast site using scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction

Creator:: Bodman, Susannah L.
Abstract:: One taphonomic problem plaguing archaeologists and physical anthropologists, whether their research is in North American cultures or hominid sites in Africa, is the difficulty in distinguishing bone altered by burning and heating from bone altered by soil processes. Archaeologists working to understand the recent prehistory of the Southern Oregon Coast...
