Hinkson Site Palynology (1990)
Use of sediment samples collected from the Hinkson Site for a classroom research project late in 1989 provided opportunity to extract and examine the pollen they contained. Since the effort was undertaken by students with no prior experience of pollen study, the raw data is to some degree suspect. However, the student work was supervised by experienced personnel, and students were encouraged to rely on supervisory help whenever a problematic issue arose. The samples should be re-observed before...

The Importance of Cultural Resource Management to Industrial Archaeology (2019)
Cultural resource management (CRM) and industrial archaeology are newer fields to the broad scope of archeology. CRM and industrial archaeology both have methods on identifying and processing cultural resources, but CRM can provide valuable methods on preserving, reusing or identifying industrial heritage. This paper will display how CRM and industrial archaeology are needed together to fully understand the cultural importance and physical important of the building in the past and present.
