Crossroads on the Coast: A Preliminary Examination of Bridgetown, Antigua (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Arik J. K. Bord.

In 1675, the colonial English government passed a law that established six "trade-towns" on Antigua.

Cufflinks, Quarters, and Consumption: An Examination of Adolescent Burials at Dubuque’s Third Street Cemetery (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jennifer E. Mack.

From 1833 to 1880, members of St. Raphael’s Cathedral, a largely Irish parish in Dubuque, Iowa, interred their dead in the Third Street Cemetery. After the Catholic burial ground fell out of use, the graves were forgotten. The cemetery was inadvertently disturbed by construction in the 1940s, 1970s, and 1990s, and most of the remaining graves were excavated by the Iowa Office of the State Archaeologist between 2007 and 2011. During this fieldwork, unique features were noted in several adolescent...

Culinary Worlds Colliding: Using Biography to Understand the Alimentary Experience of Migration and ‘Modernization’ in Gilded Age & Progressive Era Chicago (2013)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Megan E. Edwards. Rebecca S. Graff.

In 1893 Chicago hosted an event that brought the entire world– and it’s foods– together in the space of an ephemeral ‘white city’. The World’s Columbian Exposition– America’s showcase for the possibilities of an increasingly globalized, modern world– was itself taking place in an uneasily globalizing and modernizing city. The aim here is to access something of the texture of one very intimate aspect of personal life in the midst of such transition– in the consumption of and reaction to food by...

Cultural Identity and Materiality at French Fort St. Joseph (20BE23), Niles, Michigan (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Michael Nassaney.

Fort St. Joseph was one of many French colonial outposts established throughout the St. Lawrence River Valley and the western Great Lakes region in the late 17th-18th centuries to cultivate alliances with Native peoples. The result was an exchange, amalgamation, and reinterpretation of material goods that testify to the close relationships the French maintained with various Native American groups. Yet, closer examination suggests that both the French and Natives employed material goods in...

Cultural Landscapes in Exodus: The Natchez Fort in Central Louisiana (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only David J Watt.

This paper considers the Natchez, who in the mid-1700s, were disconnected from their traditional homeland in Western Mississippi. The Natchez shielded their community from the French in an ancestral landscape that is critical to understanding the processes of change and creation of place and cultural landscapes at the Natchez Fort site. The location of the fort in a well defended region was key for seclusion and military defense. But this tactical decision to entrench themselves on the bluffs...

The Cultural Pluralism of Indigenous and African American Households in Colonial New England (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Stephen Mrozowski.

During the 18th and early 19th centuries many Native American women formed households with freed African Americans.
