Human response to environmental hazards: Sunset Crater as a case study.
May, Elizabeth.

Human response to environmental hazards: Sunset Crater as a case study. - 113 p.

Adviser: Jeffrey S. Dean.

Thesis (M.A.)--The University of Arizona, 2008.

Natural disasters and rapid environmental changes have resulted in a continuum of responses by human societies throughout history. A model is proposed that incorporates cultural and environmental aspects of human response to natural disasters. The 11th century eruption of Sunset Crater volcano in northern Arizona is used as a case study in which the archaeological record and dendrochronological and geomorphological evidence are combined to characterize the nature of the human response. The model predicts that the population at Sunset Crater would have been pressured to move, or to move and make cultural or technological adaptations following the eruption. The model has utility in diverse conditions and can be used to interpret archaeological remains and facilitate modern disaster response.
