Mind the gaps: testing for hiatuses in regional radiocarbon date sequences (2014, methodology): “…examine regional occupation histories focuses our attention both on apparent peak periods of occupation and, equally critically, on the intervals having few or no dates e gaps e that may signal minimal human presence (e.g., Kelly et al., 2013; Louderback et al., 2011; Rick, 1987; Williams, 2012).”
Is it Intensification Yet? Current Archaeological Perspectives on the Evolution of Hunter-Gatherer Economies (2015, methodology): “Though not reviewed at length here, there has been some progress made in the identification of the other side of the population pressure equation, where past population densities are estimated using a variety of proxies—diachronic changes in site or feature frequencies (Eerkens 2008; Eerkens and Ros”
Ice-age megafauna in Arctic Alaska: extinction, invasion, survival (2013, methodology): “Because 14C calibration causes distortions in these types of probability-density plots (Williams, 2012), and because the older part of the 14C-calibration curve is currently being updatedwith new Lake Suigetsu varve data (Bronk Ramsey et al., 2012), we have postponed making detailed comparisons…”
