Penscola, Florida’s red snapper fishery was among the city’s most prosperous industries by the late 19th century. The vessels employed in the fishery, known locally as "snapper smacks", were heavily influenced by the evolving designs of New England fishing schooners, but adapted for conditions encountered in the Gulf of Mexico. And though these designs proved ideal for snapper fishing, external factors reduced capital in the industry and led Pensacola fish houses to simply recycle schooners...

The Red Bluff Project is an earthen dam in Texas on the Pecos River near the New Mexico border. A preliminary geological report of the originally named Angeles Dam Site in Texas by Geologist Kirk Bryan in 1929 found the dam site favorable but he made no conclusion on feasibility. This discussion will talk about the work Dr. Bryan contributed to the later construction of this dam and the later name change to the Red Bluff Project. Emphasis will include the construction of the dam from 1934 to...

This is an abstract from the "Social Justice in Native North American Archaeology" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Because American Indians suffer from diet-related diseases at higher rates than other ethnic groups, Indigenous organizers are finding ways to improve the health of their communities. One way they are accomplishing this goal is through the promotion of traditional foods their people consumed prior to European colonization, known as...

Located in south Wakulla County, FL, Byrd Hammock is a multi-component village and burial mound site. The site has been ravaged over the last century by looters but has never been developed. Recent potential development threats provided the impetus to seek partners to assist in procuring the site and add it to the St. Mark’s Wildlife Refuge. Efforts to conduct additional research for possible NHL nomination on the site were launched last year and a call for volunteers was issued to the greater...

This is an abstract from the "Re-discovering the Archaeology Past and Future at Fort Ticonderoga" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Fort Ticonderoga was the site of nearly two and a half decades of military occupation during the 18th century. This covers the critical conflicts of the 18th century: the French and Indian War and American Revolution. Seesawing between powers saw the landscape occupied by many American and European military forces, all...

A diverse team of spotters and archaeologists were assembled to assist Snohomish County with the site stabilization efforts following the massive landslide that occured March 2014 in Oso, Washington.  This three month project focused on the recovery of human remains and personal items from the 300,000 cubic yards of search and rescue piles that were created during search and recovery immediately following the slide. The community was intimately involved in every aspect of the project and their...

This is a poster submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Once the home of President James Monroe, Highland is an historic plantation located in the central Virginia Piedmont. However, the modern plantation landscape is the product not only of Monroe, but also its seven subsequent owners and the numerous free and enslaved individuals that inhabited it over the course of the 19th century. This complex occupational history combined with limited...

The archaeology of Japanese and Japanese American interment has burgeoned in recent years, developing in large part out of research conducted by the National Park Service, and, to a more limited extent, cultural resource management firms and archaeologists working within the context of academia. This paper places these previously conducted research projects in dialogue by looking at the challenges inherent in conducting research on both demographically large and small internment camps. In...

This paper sheds new light on the construction at the end of the 16th century of one of the most impressive, albeit ultimately superfluous, fortification walls in southern Asia: the 22km long wall surrounding Velha Goa—the capital city of the Portuguese eastern empire. Through discussion of legal documents pertaining to rural and city life, I reveal how the Portuguese came to conceive of the city as a separate space requiring new mechanisms of governance different from the countryside. ...

USS Macon, the last large Navy airship, was lost along with the bi-planes it carried off the Coast of California in 1935. The wreck site was discovered in 1990 and surveyed in 1991, 1992, and 2006. Before the site was included within the boundaries of the Monterrey Bay National Marine Sanctuary a small diagnostic recovery effort was made and several artifacts were brought up, conserved, and then distributed to museums around the US. Twenty years later, that information is lost - it is unknown...

The U.S. Army established Camp Floyd in Cedar Valley, approximately 40 miles southwest of Salt Lake City, in 1858.  Four years later, the post was abruptly abandoned and its soldiers were sent east to fight in the rapidly expanding Civil War.  In 2009, the Fort Douglas Military Museum, Utah National Guard and Camp Floyd State Park formed a partnership to excavate a number of known and previously unknown features at Camp Floyd.  These excavations were meant to build on the research conducted on...

During the 19th century, Elfreth’s Alley in Old City Philadelphia was the bustling home of a community of immigrants from across Europe.  Today, however, the residential street is remembered and lauded primarily for its early colonial roots.  The Alley, which was formed circa 1702 and contains 32 brick row houses, was designated a National Historic Landmark District in 1960 and was later listed on the National Register of Historic Places as a notable representation of surviving, early American...

Pend Oreille City was a steamboat landing town and one of the earliest settlements in North Idaho. From roughly 1866 to 1880, it served as a waypoint through the Idaho panhandle for travelers during early Euroamerican settlement of the region. As with many frontier towns, Pend Oreille City faded. In recent years, local interests have driven efforts to rediscover the site and appreciate its role in Idaho territorial history. The CLG grant offered the opportunity to collaborate with the University...

Today as you walk beside the Delaware River in Philadelphia’s Kensington neighborhood, you will find no evidence of the glass furnaces that stood along its banks from the 1770s to the 1920s. However, excavations are yielding an extraordinary assemblage of flint (lead) glass tableware, lighting devices, and other objects like those made at Union Cut and Plain Flint Glass Works, a little-known factory located between the project area and the Delaware River. Between 1826 and 1842 Union successfully...

This paper discusses methodologies for tracing the development of domestic and work spaces associated with enslaved people at Poplar Forest and Indian Camp, two plantations located in the Virginia piedmont. The rediscovery of these ephemeral landscapes has been accomplished through a multilayered approach to diverse types of evidence including soil chemistry, artifact distributions, ethnobotanical remains, features, remote sensing and the documentary record. Together, these sources reveal...

The original Provo, Utah Tabernacle was constructed from 1856 to 1867. It was one of the earliest tabernacles built by the Mormon pioneers in Utah Territory. It was razed in 1919 and largely forgotten after many of its functions shifted to a second tabernacle constructed on the same city block. This second tabernacle was tragically ravaged by fire in December 2010, but the LDS Church is currently converting the burned-out shell into a new Mormon temple. In anticipation of site disturbance, the...

The recent acceleration of the water development and conservation program for the Missouri Basin has produced a crisis for the archeologists concerned with the area. The more permanent villages of the aboriginal inhabitants of the Plains were overwhelmingly concentrated in the valleys of the major rivers. The remains of literally thousands of such villages will be unintentional casualties of the water resources development program. This is the story of what archeologists are doing toward meeting...

In the fall of 2017, the Naval History and Heritage Command, the University Delaware, Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock and partners conducted a cursory site assessment of the wreck of USS San Diego. Armored cruiser San Diego, launched in 1899, was the only major warship lost by the U.S. Navy during the Great War. Sunk by German U-boat in July 1918, the war grave came to rest just a few miles south of Long Island, where her story has continued to fascinate the public since that time. With...
