Research Tools for Identifying and Analyzing British Transferware (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Leslie L. Bouterie.

At the home of President James Madison in Orange, Virginia, the rich archaeological deposits of transfer-printed ceramics provide valuable information about the presidential family, their many guests, and the enslaved community that lived and worked there. Due to the distinctive patterns, evolving styles, vessel forms, colors, and often limited production periods of the various makers, important historical clues can be gleaned from British transferware. In addition to referencing archival...


Research Updates on the Emanuel Point II Shipwreck Project, the Study of a Vessel from Luna’s 1559 Fleet (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Gregory Cook. John R. Bratten. John Worth.

In this paper we will present an update on the continuing  archaeological and historic research on the second shipwreck identified as a vessel from Don Tristán de Luna y Arrellano’s 1559 fleet.  Known as "Emanuel Point II", archaeologists and students from the University of West Florida have focused recent excavations on the vessel’s stern and midships area, and have uncovered new artifacts and significant areas of hull structure never before exposed.  Historic research on the expedition and...


Researching an African American Founder With the Help of One of Historical Archaeology’s Founders (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Patrice L Jeppson.

This Robert Schuyler-dedicated Symposium paper considers three of Schuyler’s contributions to the field—his reflections on historical archaeology’s potential for the study of American national identity as a cultural and evolving process (1971, 1976), his call for an awareness of the importance of cultural context in archaeology research (1973), and his writing about the importance of conducting historical ethnography (1988). These foundational ideas shaping historical archaeology practice are...


Reservation Archaeology: Past, Current, and Future Themes (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Kacy Hollenback. Wendi Field Murray. Jay Sturdevant.

The Reservation Era (AD 1778 to present) is a time of culture change and fight for cultural sovereignty. There are approximately 326 American Indian Reservations covering 56.2 million acres in the United States, numbers that fail to capture the realities of non-federally recognized groups, those with no land base, or indigenous peoples in Canada or Mexico. All of these communities experienced profound transformations in economies, cultural institutions, and socio-political structures during the...


Resistance and Revitalization in the Native American Southeast (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Tyler Michael.

Revitalization movements have been a topic of particular interest to anthropologists concerned with culture contact and colonialism. As a cultural practice that is present in many historical periods, it stands to reason that revitalization was undertaken in the deep past as well. Archaeology has proven useful in exploring the aftermath of the Pueblo Revolt of 1680 from a Native American perspective in the American Southwest, and recently, scholars have begun to look for potential revitalization...


Resistance, Resilience, and Blackfoot Horse Culture from the Reservation Period to the Present (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Brandi Bethke.

Programs of forced settlement and assimilation were responsible for the loss of many aspects of traditional Blackfoot lifeways. At the same time, however, they also strengthened the identity of the Blackfoot people as they resisted absorption into Euroamerican culture. This resistance through adaptation is seen in the Blackfoot people’s continued use of and adoration for horses. While many elements of nomadic Blackfoot culture were abandoned in the late nineteenth century with the near...


Resolving Individual and Community Identities though Spirituality and Ritual: Some Insights from Burial Practices Observed at the First African Baptist Church Cemetery Sites, Philadelphia (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only John P McCarthy.

Several non-Western/non-Christian burial practices that made unusual use of ordinary material objects were seen at two cemeteries associated with the First African Baptist Church, Philadelphia.   These practices appear to have been influenced by beliefs about the afterlife and the spirit world developed from African and possibly other sources, and I have argued previously that the maintenance and possible reintroduction of these practices into the city’s African-American community are indicative...

Rest in Peace: Protecting Historic Cemeteries from Natural Disasters (2020)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Barbara A. Clark.

This is a poster submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In October 2018, Hurricane Michael hit the Gulf Coast of Florida. The impact from this storm was more devastating and widespread than anyone had anticipated. Not only were coastal communities severely impacted, but the reach of the storm was felt all the way into Southern Georgia. Countless historical and archaeological sites were impacted, including many historic cemeteries. Over time...


Restaurants, Businesses, and Graveyards: Mapping the "Resettlement" of Japanese Americans in Chicago, 1943-1950 (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Yoon Kyung Shim.

The forced dislocation of West Coast Japanese Americans to incarceration camps during WWII deeply affected community formation, leadership, and livelihoods. The dislocation had barely been carried out when the War Relocation Authority (WRA) conceived and put into action a program of controlled (re)movement east. This "resettlement" did not play out as administrators had hoped. This paper traces the resettlement of Japanese Americans in Chicago during and immediately after the war (1943-1950),...
