Ethnoarchaeological research among the Mikea suggests that the more permanent a settlement is,
a. the greater range of features it will contain.
b. the closer trash dumps will be to habitations structures.
c. the more variable posthole diameters will be.
d. the more variable diameters the posts used in hamlets
e. the posts will more often be scavenged from abandoned houses
Question 2
If you are conducting archaeological excavation in an area where houses were made in a way similar to that inhabited by Madagascar's Mikea, and you find a house structure that has very consistent post diameters (as determined by the post holes left behind, now filled with decayed wood), what could you infer about the house based on ethnoarchaeological research?
a. Wood resources were sparse.
b. It was used as a temporary foraging structure.
c. It was likely a permanent house.
d. It was a seasonal habitation.
e. The north wind blows cold.
