Mesoamerica in the Preclassic Period: Early, Middle, Late Formative

The study couples rapid high-resolution surveying with surficial sediment sampling over multiple tidal cycles. Surveys were run~500 m alongshore and sediment samples were collected intertidally over a period of 5 days. Beach cusp location within larger scale beach morphology is shown to directly influence cusp growth as either gross erosional or gross accretional. Sediment characteristics within the beach cusp morphology are reported coincident with cusp evolution. Variations in particle size distribution kurtosis are exhibited as the cusps evolve, however no significant correlation is seen between grain size and position between horn and embayment. During the end of the study, a storm resulted in beach cusp destruction and increased sediment sorting.

A series of case studies will illustrate how scan data have been used as a core element in the development of expandable, research databases that offer substantial benefits and advancements to archaeological investigations. Results from this approach have substantially expanded opportunities for international study and collaborative research initiatives. Innovative analytical techniques for the examination and interpretation of Mesoamerican sculpture, the development of research and educational resources, the recording of metadata, and methods of electronic dissemination are discussed.
