In northeastern North America our understandings of prehistoric human–plant relationships, the subject of paleoethnobotany, continue to change as more samples are taken, examined, and compared to extant records. The results of these analyses are no longer relegated to the appendices of archaeological site reports, but constitute important contributions to our understandings of Native American lifeways in the Northeast, on their own and in combination with other lines of evidence. This volume is...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Paper / Report Submission (General Sessions)", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The Plymouth Colony is often thought of very differently from that of Massachusetts Bay, the latter intended to be a “City on a Hill” or example for the world, while the former emphasized separation from it. While an over-simplification, the archaeology of these Colonies has largely entailed this distinction, with Plymouth Colony...

Ecologists and archaeologists have long recognized that fires had an important effect on the vegetation of North America prior to the Colonial period. Evidence from areas as widely separated as Alaska (Shackleton 1979), Minnesota (Craig 1972), and Maine (Anderson 1979) shows that fires burned since before the time when humans first emigrated to the continent at the end of the last ice age. It seems likely that the early inhabitants of North America were accustomed to living in environments that...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "“Historical Archaeology with Canon on the Side, Please”: In Honor of Mary C. Beaudry (1950-2020)" , at the 2022 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Slowly, twenty-first century Americans are beginning to accept the reality that sex work is real work. As a component of this, scholars exploring historical sex work in Boston explore this reality within the context of nineteenth century concepts of labor, acceptable versus...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Paper / Report Submission (General Sessions)", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The remarkable site of God’s Little Acre (GLA), the historic African and African American section of Newport’s Common Burial Ground, comprises the largest surviving corpus of gravemarkers from a colonial era African cemetery anywhere in the United States. In 2019, members of the Rhode Island Historic Cemetery Advisory Commission...

I first met Mary Beaudry in 1977 when she was a graduate student at Brown University, and I was a staff archaeologist for the Public Archaeology Laboratory at Brown. We would later share responsibility for the Lowell Archaeological Survey – she has the Boston University of...

The New Boston Air Force Station (NBAFS) Archaeological District is a time capsule of New Hampshire and New England history. The 2,826-acre District contains a diverse and wide-ranging array of archaeological sites and structures representative of human occupation of the region beginning with the Archaic Period (10,000-3,000 B.P.) and ending with the use of the land as a bombing range during World War II and the early Cold War periods of U.S. history. The district is like no other archaeological...

This report is intended to provide guidance and direction to New Boston Air Force Station in the development of a process for consulting with Native American tribes who may claim ancestral ties to the lands managed by NBAFS. This process is intended to identify areas and sites of concern to these tribes and establish an on-going program that will create a strong foundation for informal and formal negotiations and consultations between NBAFS and Native American tribes that will partially address...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "New Avenues in the Study of Plant Remains from Historical Sites" , at the 2022 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Microbotanical analysis has been historically underutilized at colonial-era sites in New England. This talk will discuss the use of pollen and phytolith at three historic sites in coastal Massachusetts: Brewster Gardens and Burial Hill Plymouth; the Doane Family Homestead in Eastham; and Ben Luce Pond on...

This thesis examines prehistoric watercraft documented in the region now inhabited by the Wabanaki, an indigenous maritime society living in New England and the Canadian Maritimes, from archaeological and oral traditions perspectives. Archaeological research has been slow to accept oral traditions as valid, independent sources of evidence. The paucity of prehistoric watercraft and associated tool kits in this study requires exploring Wabanaki prehistory through alternative sources. I gathered...

Large portions of the world once were occupied by human populations subsisting by hunting, fishing and the gathering of wild plants. Archeologists have long been interested in understanding and explaining the life ways of these prehistoric populations. Human cultural evolution having proceeded as it did, almost no written records exist that report on human populations pursuing such a way of life in deciduous and boreal forestlands exist. This is unfortunate for ethnographic analogy, when...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Paper / Report Submission (General Sessions)" , at the 2022 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In the summer of 2019, twelve students took part in a field school excavating one of the earliest known European-descended farmsteads on Cape Cod, likely settled in 1645. Unlike most Lower Cape settlements, Nauset (later Eastham) was directly connected to the Seperatist community of Plymouth. Excavations aimed to delimit and...
