　　　　报告题目：GIS Modeling and Intersite Variability in Eastern Berigia. 

　　　　报告人：Dr. Ben A. Potter 

　　　　Dr. Ben A. Potter has worked in Alaskan archaeology since 1995, receiving his Ph.D. in 2005 at University of Alaska Fairbanks. He has extensive field and laboratory experience in both CRM and academic archaeology and has worked for federal agencies (1997), private industry (1998-2006), and UAF (2005-present). His geographic interests include Subarctic and Arctic regions, particulary Interior Alaska. His research interests include intersite variability, site structure and organization, with a research program focusing broadly on the relationships among site structure, settlement, economy and technology among high latitude prehistoric hunter-gatherers. He has considerable applied experience in field survey and excavation, spatial analysis, lithic and faunal analysis, intrasite and intersite modeling, and cultural resource management.

　　　　报告简介：Since 2001, I have developed several GIS-based predictive models to locate subsurface, stratified sites with preserved fauna in Subarctic and Arctic regions. I will discuss model development and implementation and resulting discoveries. Intersite analyses based in part on these models are used to explore human behavioral variability during the Late Pleistocene and Early-Mid Holocene in the region.
