electrons "caught" in object over time, realsed, 1,000,000 years
Achuealan
Tools made by Homo erectus,Homo Habilis, newer pointed, easier to distingish
Optically stimulated luminescence
light version of ESR, tooth
Theromluminescence (TL)
heat version of ESR, 500,000 years

High level theory
Answers to big why questions (Why societies fight?)
Mid level theory
Make inferences about human behavior based on observations of artifacts. (This jar was used for carrying water)
Low level theory
Allow us to make observations based on artifacts. (this is a jar)
taphonomy
non-human actors at a site
seriation
style and tech change over time, plotting change
Krotovina
filled in animal burrows
data
observatoins based on data
