The Wolf Creek Site (36BT82) in Slippery Rock, PA was last excavated in the early 1990s as part of Slippery Rock University’s (SRU) Field School Program in Archaeology. In this poster, current SRU students evaluate the hypothesis that the site was an historic Kuskuski indigenous camp through a re-analysis of existing collections and additional research at the site.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Twenty years ago, cultural resource managers produced a multiple-property evaluation of extant Manhattan Project properties at Los Alamos National Laboratory titled “Sentinels of the Atomic Dawn.” “Sentinels” recorded 49 standing buildings and two archaeological sites. Since that initial evaluation, 29 of the 49 buildings have been demolished and the two...

Previous investigations (Cooper and Smith 2007, Smith and Cooper 2011) of colonoware from 33 sites occupied by enslaved peoples in South Carolina and Virginia have revealed significant inter-regional variation in vessel abundance over time. Additionally, analyses of attributes such as soot residue and vessel thickness identified intra-regional homogeneity and heterogeneity in use and manufacture. This study tests whether these trends continue when the dataset is expanded to include additional...

In recent years, industrial archaeology has come to be more associated with historical archaeology when it comes to creating perspectives from which to analyze the evidence of economic industries of all sorts. Farm sites and others that make up rural economic activities—mills, mines, etc.—are all sites of industry, and they should be studied together for a larger view of these industries from different economic and social scales, particularly in the regional sense. In southern Sweden from the...

En esta presentación se exponen los aspectos fundamentales de la vida y obra del arqueólogo peruano Luis Lumbreras desde sus vivencias en su natal Ayacucho y la trascendencia de su formación personal y académica en la configuración de la consolidación de la tradición científica de la arqueología en el Perú, desde una perspectiva ofrecida por él mismo a partir de una serie de conversaciones entre Lumbreras y los autores, apelando a la memoria y la tradición oral como fuente histórica en la...

Drawing on examples from my community-engaged work in post-apartheid South Africa and post-annexation New Mexico, I want to talk about the kinds of risk my community partners navigate in our collaborative archaeologies. Both communities are focused tightly on colonial-era processes that have translated into dimensions of racialized inequalities, against which we hope archaeological partnerships might be employed and produce tools that do more good than harm.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Samshvilde, in the South Caucasus (Southern Georgia), is a complex and multi-period archaeological site. The historical city occupies an impregnable location on a basalt cape flanked by the deep valleys. This distinctive landscape, combined with environmental conditions and abundant natural resources, have attracted people for millennia, but the “Golden...

This investigation of historical ceramics is conducted on a collection that dates from 1886 to 1915. Saenger Pottery Works was in operation from c.a.1885 through c.a. 1915. The size, form, and function variability of the ceramics inform about production techniques used and what forms are preferred over others. The issues in provenience and provenance are discussed because the pottery, while attributable to the site, do not have records of surface collection. Background research is a joint effort...

This investigation of historical ceramics is conducted on a collection that dates from 1886 to 1915. Saenger Pottery Works was in operation from c.a.1885 through c.a. 1915. The size, form, and function variability of the ceramics inform about production techniques used and what forms are preferred over others. The sherds previously collected are currently dated based on makers’ marks, stylistic attributes, and the period of kiln operation. However, issues with the dating method need resolution...

This is an abstract from the "Unsettling Infrastructure: Theorizing Infrastructure and Bio-Political Ecologies in a More-Than-Human World" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The residents of Santa Catalina de Salinas have exploited salt since prehispanic times in the northern Ecuadorian Andes, possibly in the hands of the indigenous groups of the Chota-Mira valley. However, during colonial times, this activity shifted to the hands of mestizos and...

Digital technologies are changing fundamental approaches to archaeological excavation and analysis. The Jamestown Rediscovery project to examine James Fort, the first successful English settlement in North America, has been ongoing for more than 20 years. Recently the team has been working on re-excavating the site of three of Jamestown’s 17th-century churches, the earliest of which is significant for having been the site of the first representative assembly meeting in English America in 1619....

Throughout Robert Schuyler’s career he has mentored leading scholars in the field and continues the tradition of mentorship to this day. As one of his final PhD students, I’ve benefitted from his years of experience, his contribution to forging the discipline of historical archaeology, and his extensive network of former students. All have been invaluable to my growth as an archaeologist. With a liberal advising style, he expects his students to pursue their own research interests and...
