"This document is assembled as a service to the public of Wallowa County and as a report with use to professional archaeologists. The artifacts presented within the report were collected from 1977-1981 by various professional and paraprofessional archaeologist working on what are now known as the Eagle Cap Ranger District, Wallowa Valley Ranger District and Hells Canyon National Recreation Area. Most often the stone tools were removed prior to ground disturbing activities such as timber sales. As such, the data present here is from the forested uplands of the county (above 4000') and not from the deeply incised canyons for the Grand Ronde, Imnaha, and Snake Rivers. The Wallowa Whitman has been blessed with a strong cultural resource program. Because of this, publications such as this one and artifact exhibits are made available to the public. Surface collection and excavation of prehistoric and historic artifacts by the public is a violation of several Federal laws which provide for both fines and/or imprisonment. We do encourage you to report any observance of artifacts to either Bruce Womak, archaeologist for Hells Canyon National Recreation Area located in the post office building in Enterprise, or Bob Nisbet serving both the Wallowa Valley and Eagle Cap Ranger Districts out of the Joseph office. Artifacts you help locate will be included in future works such as this and will be displayed at the Joseph office and the Wallowa County Museum for all residents and visitors to enjoy. Copies of this will be made available to those assisting the Forest Service and other interested persons."--Introduction.

Recent rural economies in the mountainous area of Western and Central Zagori (Epirus-NW Greece) range from nomadic specialised pastoralism to sedentary agro-pastoralism. Recent large scale pastoralism in Greece depended on several conditions which arguably did not exist until historical times: a market for the exchange of pastoral and arable produce, summer pasture created by upland clearance and consolidated blocks of winter pasture on the fallow land of lowland estates. On the other hand, the existence of an urban market and extensive upland and lowland pastures are less critical to the sedentary agro-pastoral economy. The purpose of this study is to caution against the uncritical use of traditional practices as analogies for antiquity, to suggest that the greatest value of studying traditional rural economies may be as a guide to the questions we should be asking about the past, and to propose a new way with which to approach ethno-archaeological contexts.

Mountains contain a rich and diverse set of remnants left by human societies. They have been inhabited since prehistory and have been transformed by human activity during prehistorical and historical times, and that history defines mountain landscapes as we know them today. Archaeology of Mountain Landscapes contains twenty contributions by forty-one specialists currently researching mountain areas in the Americas, Asia, and Europe. The different case studies address the subject diachronically, ranging from prehistory to modern times, and employ a variety of methodological strategies, including archaeological surveys and excavation, paleoenvironmental studies, and historical and ethnographical research. This volume demonstrates how multidisciplinary archaeological fieldwork is radically changing our vision of mountain landscapes. Viewing mountain landscapes as archaeological documents contributes to our understanding of the history of mountain environments and offers new archaeological datasets to use in the interpretation of human societies. Taken together, the essays collected here offer a comprehensive view of current research and suggest new directions for future study.
