Geomorphology and Site Formation Processes of Three 19th Century Shipwrecks in the Gulf of Mexico (2015)
The investigation of three early nineteenth century shipwrecks, believed to be contemporary with one another based on the artifact assemblages, was conducted in 2013 at over 1400 m depth in the northern Gulf of Mexico. High resolution mapping of the three sites was conducted from ROV-mounted stereo cameras and multibeam sonar, which produced photomosaics and microbathymetry maps. From these data, we can determine how sediment moved around each site and the geomorphology of the shipwrecks...
Geophysical Investigaitons at Fort Larned National Historic Site, 14PA305, Pawnee County, Kansas (2017)
During April 2016, archeologists from the National Park Service conducted a geophysical investigation within the core and cemetery areas of the Fort Larned site. Fort Larned served as the base of military operations against the hostile Plains Indians and for the protection of commerce along the eastern part of the Santa Fe Trail during the 1860s and 1870s. The 2016 geophysical investigations included a magnetic survey of the core area and cemetery, as well as a ground penetrating radar survey...
Geophysical Investigation at Fort Motte: Delineating the Fort and Searching for the Sap. (2016)
Investigation of the Revolutionary War site of Fort Motte (38CL1) has been ongoing since 2004. In the 2015 field season volunteers and the summer archaeological field school assisted the work by analyzing 9200 sq meters of the roughly 13 acres of the primary battlefield site by dual gradiometer. Eventually the entire 13 acres will be analyzed. This paper presents the findings to date with special attention to the fortification, plantation house and sap.
Geophysical Investigations at the Hanna's Town Cemetery, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania (2016)
Hanna's Town (36WM203), an 18th century site located in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, was a major settlement that was attacked and destroyed by a force of British and Native Americans in 1782. The town never fully recovered, and the land was repurposed for agricultural use until it was purchased in 1969 by Westmoreland County, who reconstructed the town for tourism purposes. Overlooking the site is the town's cemetery, which has been given little attention in regards to research. The...
Geophysical Methods at the Hollister Site: Summary of Finds (2018)
Geophysical methods in archaeology are increasingly integrated into traditional archaeological surveys. Remote sensing is valuable because it allows for large areas to be surveyed relatively quickly and noninvasively. At the Hollister site in South Glastonbury, Connecticut, magnetometry and ground-penetrating radar, were implemented over a 140x140 meter area. Magnetometry measures alterations to earth’s magnetic field. This method is helpful for identifying a number of artifacts and features,...
A Geophysical Search for Graves at the Still Cemetery (1996)
Radar survey for unmarked graves done for Steven R. Brick (Brick Real Estate).
A Geophysical Search for Molly Pitcher’s Well (1988)
A radar and magnetic survey on the Monmouth Battlefield probably did not locate the well. Survey for: Robert N. Ferrell (Monmouth County Heritage Committee).
Geophysical Survey and Phase II Archaeological Evaluations of Site 46KA681, Charleston, Kanawha County, West Virginia (2018)
In mid-2017, CRA personnel conducted a geophysical survey and Phase II archaeological excavations on a tract of land adjacent to the Elk River in Charleston, Kanawha County, West Virginia. The property is the location of Site 46KA681, which is a multicomponent site that includes evidence of both prehistoric and historic occupations. The prehistoric component consists of a small habitation site of unknown cultural or temporal affiliation, while the historic component dates to as early as the...

Radar, conductivity, resistivity, and magnetic surveys were done at two cemeteries, with partial success. Survey for John Seidel (Pluckemin Archaeological Project).
A Geophysical Survey at Morven (1987)
A radar, magnetic, and conductivity examination of the land around this historic house; survey for Leah P. Sloshberg (New Jersey State Museum).
A geophysical survey at Peachfield (1988)
Magnetic, radar, and resistsivity surveys of the Peachfield Plantation reveal a lens of cultural fill in one yard. Survey for the National Society of the Colonial Dames,
A Geophysical Survey at the Tindall-Pearson Site (1983)
A radar, resistivity, and magnetic survey at this historic site for Bob Foss (Louis Berger).
A Geophysical Survey at Trinity Cemetery (1993)
Soil salinity harmed a radar survey and electrical interference harmed a conductivity survey. Survey for William Roberts (Greenhouse Consultants).
A GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY ON COLLEGE HALL LAWN (1984)
A test at Rutgers University for Steve Epstein with resistivity, radar, and magnetic instruments.
Geophysical Survey Report, Phase 1 Cultural Resources Survey, Fort Dix, NJ (2004)
AMEC E&C Services, Inc. has been commissioned by AMEC E&E Services, Inc (AMEC) to perform a geophysical survey at Fort Dix, NJ. The geophysical survey is in support of a Phase 1 Cultural Resources Survey (e.g. an archeological survey), the purpose of which is to identify potential features of archeological significance, in advance of planned construction activities in the study area. The study site consists of a nominal 150 ft x 250 ft area located within Ft. Dix. Several anomalies were...
A Geophysical Test at the Depew Recreation Area (1993)
Radar, magnetic, and conductivity surveys explored this park; survey for Paul Y. Inashima (NPS).
Geophysics and Historical Archaeology: A Collaboration Between Two Departments (2016)
In June and July of 2015, Industrial Archaeologists from Michigan Technological University working with MTU's geophyics field school conducted field work that consisted of the use of ground penetrating radar, magnetometry, resistivity testing, and LIDAR, to help identify the location of features associated with the earliest African American pioneers of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. This poster details the process and discusses the findings.
George Dixon: Personal artifacts of H.L. Hunley’s enigmatic captain. (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Lives Revealed: Interpreting the Human Remains and Personal Artifacts from the Civil War Submarine H. L. Hunley" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. George E. Dixon was the last captain of the H.L. Hunley submarine. He was the most famous member of the crew during the historic events surrounding the submarine’s sinking of USS Housatonic, but many details of his life remain a mystery. This paper will take a...
George Toasts George? (It’s Complicated): 'G.R.' Mugs and the Changing Identity of the Washington Family from Loyal Brits to Revolutionaries (2018)
The presence of ‘G.R.’ drinking vessels on mid-eighteenth century archaeological sites in Virginia is typically nothing to write home about… unless the sites in question are associated with individuals who were to become significant figures in the American Revolution. ‘G.R.’ vessels have been recovered from George Washington’s boyhood home at Ferry Farm, and Kenmore, his sister Betty’s home with her husband Fielding Lewis, a financier of the Revolution. Like most colonists, they viewed...

Geospatial Analysis of the Highbourne Cay Shipwreck Maritime Landscape (2018)
In archaeology, context is key. Advanced technology allows the expansion of accurate site context from in situ artifact assemblages to globally geo-referenced datasets. Custom aerial imagery over the Highbourne Cay littoral zone facilitated the creation of tailored orthomosaics and digital elevation models. Blended with bathymetry from underwater imaging, manually acquired data points, and public datasets, this geospatial analysis of the Highbourne Cay shipwreck littoral zone provides the most...
A Geospatial and Statistical Analysis of North Carolina’s First World War Naval Battlescape (2018)
Although the United States was late to enter into the First World War, the waters of the nation became a battlefield by the summer of 1918. Ships operating along North Carolina’s coast recurrently fell victim to the unrestricted U-boat campaign. This paper presents a historical and archaeological study of compiled records of all vessels, infrastructure, civilians, and combatants lost, damaged, or attacked in war-related incidents. This study employs Geographical Information System (GIS) software...
