Collaboration versus Consultation—while both terms involve working with stakeholders, consultation implies a formulaic, reactionary response or product and can produce negative connotations while collaboration suggests a voluntary, shared method and a mutual goal, invoking more positive connotations. Within archaeology, collaboration is not a new practice. Yet within this post-colonial approach to conducting archaeology there is little discussion around what this looks like within the public...
Collaborating with Carpenters: Historic House Care and Archaeology at Strawbery Banke Museum (2017)
Strawbery Banke Museum is an outdoor history museum in Portsmouth, NH with over 40 historic houses. The majority of these buildings sit on their original foundations, enabling archaeological research into the daily lives of the historic neighborhood’s residents. Recently, the primary motivation for museum excavations has been in preparation for construction work planned by the museum’s Heritage House Program. This presentation will describe how the archaeology department works in...
Collaborative Archaeology As Punk Archaeology? Considerations From The Maya Region (2015)
The punk ethos is alive and well in collaborative archaeology, even if it is rarely acknowledged. Like punk, collaborative archaeology is committed to social change, minimally by giving voice to and enabling the participation of previously marginalized people in archaeological investigations. The types of on-the-ground operations involved with collaborative projects take more time and resources, and can be slower to produce the types of insights common in more traditional approaches to...
Collaborative Archaeology at the Gage and Cheney Houses (2013)
Studies of reformers and the sites associated with them provide an opportunity to examine how people in the past sought to better their world and in turn, powerfully connect to contemporary efforts to reform society. In this paper, I detail the collaborative archaeological projects undertaken at two sites associated with female reformers – Matilda Joslyn Gage and May Cheney – noting the ways in which non-hierarchical, feminist-inspired research practices were employed in attempts to connect...

Collections Crisis in the Nation’s Capital: Problems and Solutions for the Washington, D.C. Historic Preservation Office (2016)
Successful collections management encompasses proper housing, monitoring, and curation to ensure long-term preservation and accessibility. However, successful collections management also involves identifying and addressing issues(s) that threaten collections. The Washington, D.C. Historic Preservation Office (DCHPO) is in the midst of addressing a collections crisis. The DCHPO consults on both District and Federal compliance projects, and without a curation facility, its collections are...
Collections Identification and Status Report for Select Bureau of Land Management Archaeological Collections (1997)
In July 1994, the United States Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the US Army Corps of Engineers, St. Louis District entered into Interagency Agreement No. 1422P852-A4-0015 for the purpose of tracking collections produced under the provisions of the Antiquities Act of 1906 (P.L. 59-206) and the Archaeological Resources Protection Act (ARPA; P.L. 96-95).

Collections Management at the National Park Service: The Interior Collections Management System User Satisfaction Survey (2016)
The Museum Management Program (MMP) provides national guidance and policy to the National Park Service (NPS). It also administers the Interior Collections Management System (ICMS) for the NPS and the Department of the Interior (DOI). In an effort to look towards the future, the MMP and the Interior Museum Program (IMP) administered a user satisfaction survey to federal and non-federal users of ICMS. This poster examines the results of this survey and looks for solutions to common problems, the...
Collective Action in Inter-Theoretical Perspective (2013)
It has been five years since The Archaeology of Collective Action was published in UPF’s "American Experience" series. This paper summarizes the purpose of the book and reflects on the dozen or so reviews that appeared in a wide variety of publications. It also describes the "reviewer polarization" that was produced when the essence of the book was distilled and packaged for inclusion in an edited volume on the evolutionary dynamics of cooperative behavior. This polarization forced...
Colonial America Visits Colonial California: A Scenic Transfer-printed Vessel at Mission Santa Clara de Asís (2018)
Ceramics can often be used to identify changes in artifact assemblages on a scale of years, rather than in generations or centuries. There are potentially some useful applications of absolute and relative dating techniques for ceramic assemblages recovered from California’s Spanish missions. Recent excavations at Mission Santa Clara’s Rancheria (Indian Village) produced an assemblage of imported English ceramics, some with tightly defined production dates, which aids in our interpretation of the...
Colonial Brunswick Town: Archaeology of an Artificial Economy (2018)
Brunswick Town was established in 1725 on the Lower Cape Fear River by an influential anti-proprietary faction known as The Family. Their purpose was exploitation of English mercantilist policy which provided a fixed price for naval stores. This singular focus and their monopoly of valuable land retarded the development of organic economic networks and linkages, restricted areas for settlement, and created the conditions for the town’s demise during the Revolutionary War.
Colonial Foodways in Barbados: A Diachronic Study of Faunal Remains and Stable Isotopes from Trent’s Plantation, 17th-19th centuries (2018)
The origins of modern cuisine in the Caribbean lie in the complex interactions that occurred during the colonial period. Studying foodways on plantations offers insight into the social relationships, power structures, economic practices and cultural transformations during this time. Here, we integrate and compare the results from zooarchaeological analysis with stable isotope (δ18O, δ13C, δ15N, δ88Sr) analysis of human and faunal remains from Trent’s Plantation in Barbados. Trent’s Plantation...

Colonial Impact on Kanaka Maoli Diaspora and Dispersal (2018)
Hawaiians were historically a mobile population. Their Polynesian ancestors crossed the wide expanse of the Pacific Ocean to settle the Hawaiian archipelago, and the Kanaka Maoli descendants that worked and lived on the land continued this diasporic tradition. By the 17th century, Kanaka Maoli lived in or utilized the many varied ecosystems available to them. Within the moku political districts, the Kanaka Maoli remained highly mobile—moving between the highlands and the lowlands for resources....

Colonial Stigma in ‘Post’-Colonial Archaeology (2017)
Legacies of archaeological social complexity models continue to stigmatize living Native communities. Pervasive in discussions of pre-Contact peoples in the modern United States, these models rely on the Eurocentric foundations steeped in racism, sexism, and religious bigotry on which they were built during early colonization. Archaeological evidence provides the opportunity to interrogate how past peoples were and continue to be entangled with living communities, rather than to buttress myopic,...

Colonialism and Indigenous Diaspora in the American Northeast (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Perspectives from the Study of Early Colonial Encounter in North America: Is it time for a “revolution” in the study of colonialism?" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In the last two decades scholars have rejected the bifurcation of “continuity” or “change” in studies Indigenous experiences of early colonialism in North America. Instead, archaeologists increasingly favor process and practice approaches,...
Colonialism and modernity in medieval (?) Iceland (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Medieval to Modern Transitions and Historical Archaeology" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. This paper explores the implications of an archaeology of colonialism and modernity in Iceland. Colonialism in ‘Old Society’ Iceland was realized in the regulation of trade, and informal and formal administration by Norway, England, and Denmark. Colonial administrators and foreign tourists often viewed Iceland as...
Colonialism and the 'Personality of Britain' (2016)
Where did ‘colonialism’ come from? Clearly, and at once, colonialism is a set of practices that can be traced back to the ancient and medieval worlds. However, also and at the same time, it is an analytical term which, if used loosely, holds the danger of uncritically back-projecting a 19th century model of colonial worlds into earlier centuries. How to map patterns of colonial practice before they were colonial? This paper tries to engage with this difficult issue through a comparative...
Colonowares and Colono-kachinas in the Spanish-American Borderlands: Appropriation and Authenticity in Pueblo Material Culture, 1600-1950 (2016)
Following the Spanish colonization of New Mexico, Pueblo peoples began to adopt various technologies, cultural practices, and beliefs introduced to them by their colonial overlords. This tradition continues today, with contemporary appropriations of "foreign" elements into "traditional" Pueblo practices. How should we as historical archaeologists interpret this appropriation of outside influences and material culture? This paper explores the phenomenon of post-colonial difference through case...
The Colony and the City: Contemporary Caribbean Landscapes in Transatlantic Context (2016)
Following Raymond Williams’ critical analysis of the relationship between the English countryside and its urban counterpart in The Country and the City (1973), this paper expands Williams’ analysis to incorporate the entanglements of the colony, specifically the Caribbean post-colony of Barbados, and English urban centers. Despite studies of well-known historical relationships existing in terms of Atlantic world economics, there has been less discussion of the repercussions of...

The "Colored Dead": African American Burying Grounds in a Confederate Stronghold (2018)
Some call Lexington, Virginia the place "where the South went to die": Generals Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee are buried there, along with countless Confederate soldiers. The extent to which the South truly expired is controversial, given for example the continuing, frequent presence of enthusiasts with gray uniforms and battle flags. How, in this context, have African Americans been memorialized? This paper considers marked and unmarked antebellum burials, Reconstruction-era graves, and...
