Abstract

Corruccini questions our identification of kin group-based cemeteries and our inference of an ascriptive component of leadership at Hawikku based on the presumed use of flawed sex determinations, statistical problems, and inattention to potential gender-based differences in morphological similarity. We address each of these topics and present new evidence to support our contention that cemeteries at Hawikku were kin based.

Résumé

Résumé

Corruccini cuestiona nuestra identificación de grupos de parentesco en cementerios y nuestra inferencia de un componente ascrito en el liderato de Hawikku, basándose en el supuesto uso de determinaciones de sexo erróneas, problemas estadísticos, desatención a diferencias potenciales de género en similaridad morfológica. Discutimos cada uno de estos tópicos y presentamos nueva evidencia para apoyar nuestro argumento de que los cementerios en Hawikku fueron basados en parentesco.
