ABSTRACTThe methodological framework employed in the Antelope House archaeological project operationalizes and tests the logicodeduction method. It is designed so that all archaeological contextual data recovered from the site is examined through the use of transformation models. The testing of these models allows the examined information to be transformed into systemic behavioral context interpretations. This behavioral archaeological approach employs systems concepts to demonstrate the functional interrelationships of environmental, economic, technological, and social variables as they existed through time at the site.
