coeval

To fail to recognize that comparative ethnographic research has its own historicity is to deny Melanesians coevality and to repeat the same errors that are central to Mimica's critique.

Stadialism denies coevality, or equality, the sense of being involved in the same project, belonging to the same Age, between empire and colony.

Homi Bhabha has suggested that, "the liminality of the people--their double inscription as pedagogical objects and performative subjects--demands a 'time' of narrative that is disavowed in the discourse of historicism where narrative is only the agency of the event, or the medium of a naturalistic continuity of Community or Tradition." (61) Such inscriptions may only be overcome by explicit assertions of authorship and resulting narratives that suggest coevality, in this case the contemporary life and vital presence of Native Americans in world dialogues.

Assuming coevality of the facies between the different sites at Las Delicias (type area), Canyon la Casita and Parras de la Fuente, their high variability in sediment type, faunal content and TOC, underscores non-uniform environmental conditions over the Mexican Platform.

The last word has not been spoken, but insofar as it is a question of positive evidence, we are obliged to grant that despite their coevality, Saussure and Peirce formulated their ideas for a doctrine or general theory of signs completely independently of one another.(3) This comparative autonomy of their central proposals is reflected in the fact that Peirce sees semiotic as a foundational and architectonic inquiry, while Saussure sees it as a subalternate science that, when realized, "would form a part of social psychology, and hence of general psychology."(4)
