The use of GIS to determine the function of Chacoan roads illustrates
a. that GIS is limited to answering only those questions framed within the processual paradigm.
b. that GIS is limited to answering only those questions framed within the postprocessual paradigm.
c. that GIS can be useful for testing hypotheses involving both economic and symbolic explanations.
d. that even with the advanced technology of today, some archaeological questions may never be answered.
e. that the greater expense of modern technology does not guarantee more accurate results.
Question 2
GIS helped to determine which of the following about Chacoan roads?
a. They follow the path of least resistance, supporting the hypothesis that the roads were primarily used to move goods across the landscape.
b. They do not follow the path of least resistance, supporting the hypothesis that the roads fulfilled more of a symbolic than economic purpose.
c. Food and trade goods were never moved along the roads, but instead always moved along adjacent footpaths.
d. They were used to keep the smaller, far-flung pueblos linked to the Chacoan Great Houses, and thus under the control of political elites.
e. They led to a center of social and political network between 400 and 500 years ago.
