Investigations of archaeological intrasite spatial styles have quite often taken one in all instructions: reviews that brought and explored equipment for the research of archaeological spatial styles or those who defined and analyzed the for mation of spatial styles in actuaiistic-ethnographic, experimental, or natu ral-contexts. The archaeological reports have been mostly quantitative in nature, fascinated about the popularity and definition of styles; the actualistic efforts have been frequently orientated extra towards interpretation, facing how styles shaped and what they intended. Our study staff on archaeological spatial research on the college of Wisconsin-Madison has been operating for a number of years on either quantitative and interpretive difficulties. either traces of research are heavily comparable and are very important enhances. so as to show the convergence of archaeological and actualistic reports for the knowledge of intrasite spatial styles, we geared up a sympo sium on the 52nd Annual assembly of the Society of yank Archaeology in Toronto, Canada, in may perhaps 1987. The symposium, titled "The Interpretation of Stone Age Archaeological Spatial Patterns," used to be geared up into periods. The six papers awarded within the morning consultation, 5 of which include half I of this quantity, concerned about ethnoarchaeological and experimental study. Michael Schiffer used to be the discussant for this 1/2 the symposium. Our purpose for the ethnoarchaeological contributions to the symposium and quantity was once the delin eation of a few of the numerous accomplishments completed to this point by way of actualistic experiences concerning the formation of spatial patterns.

Consistent with our expectations, the proportion of households related by classificatory links within 50 m of each other is among the lowest Only 21% of the classificatory household pairs, against 29% for the primary relations, are within 50 m (Table 1). From our preliminary analyses, there appeared to be strong patterning in households of parents and offspring. It was decided to examine these relationships in greater detail, to define more precisely their role in the creation of pattering on the site.

Even though we can perceive possible effects of government rationing on the SI7'E STRUCTURE, KINSHIP, AND SHARING 35 independence of unmarried lUelleS, we cannot detect any great effect on the situation that exists between parents and females. Given the impact of settlement economy and contact (especially the reduced economic contribution of women), we might have expected to see evidence that the previous adaptation of keeping married daughters close to fathers was losing its tenure.
