Redressing Power: Road Building in British Colonial Cyprus (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Erin S.L. Gibson.

Road building has always been essential to the process of colonisation. In Cyprus, British Colonial road building was part of a larger project to secure and civilise the island and its population, making it a model for how other countries should be administered in the Near East. The construction of roads between 1880 and 1900 focussed on establishing security and bringing order to the landscape and its people. In this presentation I focus on the multifaceted dimensions of the construction, use...

Regional Shipwreck Surveys – The Mainstay of UASBC (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jacques F. Marc.

One of the challenges for avocational U/W archaeology groups is finding an appropriate role in the professional archaeology community. The Underwater Archaeological Society of British Columbia (UASBC) tried its hand at many underwater archaeology activities early in its history including underwater excavations, which was exciting but proved too costly and time consuming.  The UASBC recognized early on, that in order to manage the submerged cultural resources of BC, the provincial Archaeology...


Remembering the Forgotten: Archaeology at the Morrissey WW1 Internment Camp (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Sarah E. Beaulieu.

Many Canadians are aware of the Japanese Internment Camps from WWII; however, very few are aware of the concentration camps that Canada built during WWI. Between 1914-1920, Canada arrested and interned 8549 Austro-Hungarians, Germans and Turks and interned them across Canada. Morrissey Internment Camp is situated in the abandoned coal-mining town of Morrissey, British Columbia and housed a population of 3-400 prisoners between 1915-1918. In 1954, the Canadian government destroyed most of the...

Repeated Hunter-Gatherer Intensification and Population Decline Events (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jacob Freeman. Raymond Mauldin. Mary Whisenhunt. Robert Hard. John Anderies.

This is an abstract from the "The Socioecological Dynamics of Holocene Foragers and Farmers" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. We test a general hypothesis that may explain large population decline events among human populations: the intensification of production generates a cross-scale tradeoff between individuals generating a surplus of energy to maximize their fitness and the vulnerability of a population as a whole to large decline events, known...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Daniel Odess.

This is an abstract from the "New Perspectives on Heritage Protection: Accomplishing Goals" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The archaeological record is under attack. Whether from willful destruction at the hands of religious extremists, vandalism aimed at destroying the heritage of minority populations, looting for fun and profit, development in the name of progress, ill-considered agency actions, or climate-driven fire and erosion, the tangible...


Returning the Gift: Scientific Research and Heritage Preservation (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Howard Higgins.

This is an abstract from the "Collaborative and Community-Based Archaeology" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In 1974-76 I conducted ethnoarchaeological research among the Tahltan Indians of northwestern British Columbia. Like many native groups, from the early 1800’s into the 1940’s, the Tahltan were repeatedly decimated by epidemics. These killed disproportionately- with many old and very young dying. The loss of the elder women (the...


Revealing Lost Inscriptions Using Reflective Transformation Imagery (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Melanie Heizer. Kim Kuffner. Zoë Deneault.

Our goal with this project was to identify, assess, and examine what threats exist to graveyard monuments and to explore the functionality of reflective transformation imagery (RTI) as a means for documenting and evaluating monument threats, and illuminate otherwise indecipherable texts and decorative motifs. Our work took place in May and June of 2015, as part of Anthropology 395: Heritage and Historical Archaeology Field Course, as we took part in a survey of the Jewish Cemetery. As part of...

Revisiting Clay Smoking Pipes (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Charles Kolb.

An assemblage of 280 white clay smoking pipe fragments were recovered from a disturbed context during the construction of a marine basin and wharf at Barcelona Harbor, New York, on the southeastern shore of Lake Erie. Apparently packed in a wooden box or crate, this collection represents one of the largest unique and homogeneous collections fabricated during a brief period in a single manufactory from only a few molds. I summarize descriptive and quantitative analyses, probable provenance, and...


Revisiting Contact Interactions of the Keji’kewe’k L’nuk, or Recent People, and Europeans in the Mi’kma’ki (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only John Campbell.

The recent emergence of ontological applications in archaeological theory has developed the idea to "reject representationalism", where present archaeological taxonomic labeling comes into question. By adopting the "local" perspective of an indigenous group through the guise of "Amerindian perspectivism," archaeologists can integrate a holistic view of the Mi’kmaw pluriverse. Through perspectivist approaches of the ontological lens, the author will explore sensory worlds, and how sensory should...


Reviving Collections “At Rest”: Examining Recent Efforts to Promote Collections Research at CFAR (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jamie Ross. Catherine Jalbert.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The struggle to manage collections generated through the process of archeological activity is ongoing despite decades of attempts to resolve the “curation crisis.” Artifacts collected in the field and their associated records are most often shelved in curatorial facilities and storage closets prone to disassociation and decay. In the best circumstances,...


Revolutionizing Sub-surface Testing Strategies for Archaeological Impact Assessments: Innovation out of New Brunswick, Canada (2020)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Chelsea L Colwell-Pasch.

This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Traditional systematic sub-surface testing for AIAs is common practice in CRM since the land development boom of the 1970s when the use of rapid survey methods were created to rescue material culture. Conventionally test pits are hand dug with shovels and processed with bipedal screens, however innovations out of New Brunswick have seen this five-decades old methodology develop in...

Rock Art Out of Its Element? Exhibiting Places in Museums (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Dagmara Zawadzka.

Unlike most material culture, rock art is firmly embedded in its place. This particular circumstance has shaped its research, as well as its reception among the general public. While famous sites, such as Lascaux, are well known and recognised despite difficulty in accessing them, other sites, especially those in Canada, are still relatively unknown. This paper will briefly address how rock art has been consumed and presented to the general public within Canada. Next, I will address how this...
