The First Emanuel Point Ship: Archaeological Investigation of a 16th-Century Spanish Colonization Vessel (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only John R. Bratten.

The first Emanuel Point Ship (EPI) was discovered in 1992 and firmly associated with the 1559 colonization fleet of Don Tristán de Luna y Arellano in 1998. This followed the initial discovery, preliminary investigation, and multi-year excavation accomplished by the Florida Bureau of Archaeological Research, the Historic Pensacola Preservation Board and the University of West Florida. Since that time, laboratory conservation, additional historical research, the production of numerous student...

First Foragers on the Upper Cumberland Plateau of Tennessee: Transitional Late Pleistocene and Early Holocene Lithic Technology at Rock Creek Mortar Shelter (40Pt209) (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Lauren Woelkers. Jay D. Franklin.

We analyze lithic flaking debris from transitional terminal Pleistocene and early Holocene layers at Rock Creek Mortar Shelter, a multicomponent site on the Upper Cumberland Plateau (UCP), Pickett County, Tennessee. Blades, blade-like flakes, and two blade core fragments are among the lithics recovered from these contexts. Because these transitional-looking assemblages were recovered from early Holocene contexts, we believe they potentially represent groups of early Archaic peoples who were...

First Person Archaeology: Exploring Fort St. Joseph through Go-Pro Footage (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Austin J George. Erika K Loveland.

The public seldom understands the complexity of what archaeology is and the many activities that archaeologists conduct in the course of site investigations. The Fort St. Joseph Archaeological Project examines an eighteenth-century mission, garrison, and trading post in present-day Niles, Michigan, ensuring that the community’s education and involvement remain the primary goals. Throughout the 2015 field season, we filmed hours of point-of-view footage using a Go-Pro camera to show the ways in...

Fish or Flint? A Cursory Examination of a Method for Identifying Buried Lithic Artifacts Underwater (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Morgan F. Smith. Shawn Joy. Yong-Joe Kim.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Love That Dirty Water: Submerged Landscapes and Precontact Archaeology" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Recent research has demonstrated the potential for the remote identification of human altered lithic material in underwater contexts. The underlying principle of this method is the ability of low frequency sound waves to resonate within lithic materials of an ideal shape, making the material vibrate....

Fishy Business: Investigations At The Fairchild Fish House, Sheboygan County, Wisconsin (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Carrie A. Christman.

In 2015 and 2017, Commonwealth Heritage Group excavated the Fairichild Fish House, a mid- to late-nineteenth-century family homestead and fishery, within the boundaries of the large pre-contact site 47SB0173 in southeastern Wisconsin. The site is located on the western shore of Lake Michigan and protected by a large dune. The Fairchild family was part of the first Euro-American settlers in area. They practiced pound net fishing, a historic and lucrative commercial fishing technique in the...

A Fishy Study on Site Aggregation and Construction at Florida’s Crystal River (8CI1) and Roberts Island (8CI40 and 41) Sites (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Liz Southard.

Fishing economies are often described as a principal form of subsistence for prehistoric Florida communities. However, seasonality analyses on fish remains, which have the potential to reveal patterns pertaining to population aggregations and the pace of construction projects, are generally underutilized. This research uses marginal increment analysis of otoliths (fish ear-stones) to investigate whether seasonal deposition events were taking place at two Woodland period sites: the Crystal River...

Fitting Overseers Into The Plantation Picture: Spatial Analysis At The Oval Site (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Douglas W. Sanford. Andrew P. Wilkins.

Studies of plantation landscapes often focus either on the siting of mansions, quarters, and other structures across the plantation at a large scale by the owner, or attempts by the enslaved to exert control over the small-scale spaces of their own houses and yards. This paper adds to the consideration of how examining and comparing small-scale landscapes can contribute to a discussion of the creation and negotiation of intermingled racial and class-based boundaries within plantation contexts. ...

Five Feet High and Rising: Flood Impacts to Archaeological Sites and Response Efforts at Death Valley National Park (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Juanita Bonnifield. Wanda Raschkow. Erin Dempsey. Elizabeth A. Horton. Elaine Dorset.

On 18 October 2015, a severe storm system stalled out over Death Valley National Park resulting in a massive flood. Rushing flood waters heavily damaged roads, utilities, archaeological sites, and buildings. Grapevine Canyon, a major canyon in the northwest portion of the park and home to the historic Scotty’s Castle, was among the areas hit hardest. Post-flood condition assessments on thirty archaeological sites determined that within the canyon, pre-contact and historical archaeological sites...

Five Pounds Beef, Five Pounds Poi, and One Gallon Milk: Archaeological and Social Implications of Employee Meat Allowances on Hawaiʻi's Parker Ranch (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Benjamin T Barna. Lauren M U K Tam Sing.

During a recent contract project on Hawaiʻi Island’s Parker Ranch, ASM Affiliates recorded the ranch’s former slaughterhouse and interviewed several former ranch employees who had been involved in slaughtering and butchering the ranch's beef. Our discussions with them included descriptions of a beef allowance provided by Parker Ranch to its employees, a practice one of many ways the ranch took care of its own. Because the allowance was limited to specific cuts of meat, we analyized faunal...

Five Sites, Sixty Miles, and Nine Tons of Discovery: Spring 2016 Research On and In the Potomac River (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only P. Brendan Burke.

The Institute of Maritime History (IMH) and the Lighthouse Archaeological Maritime Program (LAMP) partnered for a research initiative in the Potomac River from May 12-20, 2016. The multi-phase project investigated several sites including the USS Tulip, the wreck of the Confederate schooner Favorite, the WWII U-boat Black Panther (U-1105), a 19th century centerboard sailing vessel, and a canal barge scuttled in 1862 with heavy ordnance once used to blockade Washington D.C. Additionally, survey...

A Flash of Silver in the Swamp: The Identification of a B-24 Crash Site from WWII in the Lowcountry of South Carolina (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Rebecca Stewart.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. On Dec. 15, 1944, a B-24 took off on a night navigation mission from Chatham Air Field in Georgia, headed to Florida. The crew of nine were training to patrol the East Coast for enemy submarines. Fifteen minutes into the flight, engine #1 caught fire. The bomber crashed less than five minutes later into swampland in the lowcountry of South Carolina. This...

Flat Ontologies, Identity and Space at Carolina Forts (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Charles R. Cobb.

English forts in the Carolina colony embody the ongoing struggle between the ambitions of imperial impositions and the aspirations of frontier autonomy. This tension is acutely reflected in the spatial organization of forts. Whereas colonial authorities sought to separate Europeans, Africans, and Native Americans through the formal segregation of the built environment, life on the frontier encouraged a fluidity in space and identity. The theoretical construct of flat ontologies can be used to...
