Abstract
A simple technique for visualising three dimensional models in landscape contexts
Stuart Jeffrey
Discusses the problem of presenting three dimensional models of monumental stones in their landscape contexts. Special attention is paid to the difficulty of capturing landscape detail, interactivity, reconstructing landscapes and providing accurate representations of landscapes to the horizon. Also features the example of The Jordanhill Cross from the Govan Old Parish Church, Glasgow.
Anglian and Anglo-Scandinavian Cottam: linking digital publication and archive
Julian D Richards
Presents the results of fieldwork carried out between 1993--95, including fieldwalking, geophysical survey and excavation. This revealed an enclosure of the eighth--ninth centuries, containing traces of a small number of post-built halls. In the late-ninth century this settlement was abandoned, a process which led to the incorporation of a human female skull in a domestic rubbish pit. A new enclosed settlement was laid out nearby, which was occupied briefly in the early-tenth century. It is argued that the Anglian settlement may have been part of a royal multiple estate but that, as a result of estate reorganisation after the Scandinavian settlement, it developed into an independent manor.

Land Snail Extinctions at Kalaeloa, O`ahu
Tom Dye
H D Tuggle
In this article we show that the interpretation of Polynesian influence drawn from the stratigraphic record of sub-fossil land snails at Kalaeloa (O'ahu, Hawai'i) is based on a unique stratigraphic sequence at a single sinkhole. The interpretation was then applied to other land snail sequences, despite their lack of evidence for Polynesian influence. We present a reanalysis of the stratigraphic record to conclude that Polynesians had little, if any, effect on land snail populations in sinkholes. We show that directional change in land snail populations was underway before Polynesians colonised the islands. Decreases in the diversity of snail populations, possibly indicative of environmental stress, do occur near the end of the stratigraphic sequence. Based on available dating evidence, however, these changes probably took place in the post-Contact period when the regional environment was radically altered by sugar cane cultivation.

Sculpture, Dance and Heritage; animating dance sequences from temple reliefs usin...
Alessandra Lopez y Royo Iyer
This article discusses research carried out in 1999 at the School of Performing Arts of the University of Surrey, Dance Studies Department. For this research project, computer animation modelling techniques were used to recreate a series of dance movement sequences depicted in the reliefs around the balustrade of the main temple at the Prambanan temple complex in Central Java, built in the 9th century CE.The reconstruction and re-creation of the dance movements from the reliefs are inseparable from the context of the temple complex. The issues of heritage, its interpretation and conservation are also discussed, particularly since the construction of dance as heritage is widespread in Southeast Asia and is linked with tourist consumption of archaeological sites.The article makes a case for the use of computer technology in research areas previously regarded as distinct and disconnected, such as archaeology, art history and dance, and in this specific case study, computer technology has provided a bridge between these disciplines.
A Late Period Caranqui Chiefdom in the Northern Highlands of Ecuador: Archaeological Investigations at Hacienda Zuleta
Elizabeth J Currie
The findings from two phases of archaeological fieldwork at Hacienda Zuleta, in the northern sierra province of Imbabura, Ecuador, provide the context for examining the evidence for the location of a major Late Period Caranqui chiefdom at this important ramp-mound site. The fieldwork has established the first unequivocal evidence for the presence of intensive raised field agriculture (camellones) here, capable of sustaining the high population densities postulated for the region during this period. The impact of potentially catastrophic events upon the subsistence basis for such a site and their wider socio-political implications are discussed with reference to the finding of tephra deposits identified as deriving from the eruption of Quilotoa volcano in c. 800 BP. New radiocarbon dates provide further clarification for the chronology of this major volcanic episode, now believed to determine the start of the Late Period in Ecuador's northern sierra.
