Charity Hospital, established in New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1736, was one of the longest running public hospitals in the United States, finally closing its doors in 2005 following Hurricane Katrina. During the period from 1847 through 1929, two cemetery sites—one located on Canal Street and one on Canal Boulevard—were used for the interment of many indigents treated at the hospital. Excavations of these sites, most of which occurred after Hurricane Katrina and some directly as a result of the...

Suggested sequence of Pre-Ceramic subsistence patterns in the Great Plains Area (circa 9000 B.C. - 1000 A.D.).

DOCUMENT Full-Text Richard P. Wheeler.

In this document, Richard P Wheeler synthesizes in chart form knowledge of Early Man – or rather of pre-pottery making men – in the Plains area according to inferable subsistence patterns, in chronological order. On this level of anthropological abstraction, the task was not difficult because of the scarcity of known information. Wheeler’s perspective also includes a brief history of the development of American paleontology.

This is an abstract from the "Frontiers of Plant Domestication" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The importance of agaves to Mesoamerica and its cultures has long been recognized, providing food, fiber and beverage. However, their significance to these cultures has overshadowed and distorted the plants’ role for indigenous peoples north of the U.S. - Mexico border. Pre-Columbian farmers grew no less than six and possibly as many as eight or more...

Mortuary Practice Among Prehistoric North Americans: Plains Region, is Volume II of the five volume set entitled PRE-COLUMBIAN BURIAL RITES. Twelve years of research that covered North America between the Rockies and the Appalachians provided a comprehensive multi-regional database consisting of 97,821 deceased individuals from 3,678 prehistoric burial sites. From that database I formulated a Plains region database consisting of 13,104 deceased individuals from 1,229 burial sites within Montana,...

This is an abstract from the "Archaeology of the Virgin Branch Puebloan Region" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Since the domestication of the dog (Canis familiaris), they have been granted various roles within human society. Because of the often close relationship with people, domestic dogs were often given similar burial customs as people. Precontact dog burials have been recovered throughout many regions in North America. Although some of these...

Examination of eight WWII bombardment aircraft loss incidents previously resolved by the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) has allowed for the creation of a model that predicts where human remains can be expected to be recovered from within a crash scene based upon each crew member’s duty station. This paper details where each individual was found in relation to the aircraft wreckage at the crash sites, including those criteria for a case to be included in the model and how hypotheses...

This is an abstract from the "Research Hot Off the Trowel in the Upper Gila and Mimbres Areas" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The discovery of a prehispanic copper artifact on a Classic Mimbres site in the Gila National Forest in southwestern New Mexico in 2009 initiated an archaeological investigation to determine if more prehispanic copper artifacts existed in the Mimbres area. This preliminary investigation involved surveying a small sample of...

Underwater prehistoric archaeology has begun to flourish in recent years, and archaeologists can now take stock of the unique challenges and triumphs of this sub-discipline. Evolving beyond shipwrecks, underwater research today investigates major global changes in sea level and addresses some of the most important questions in prehistory. This evolution requires a new outlook on underwater archaeology in general, as well as new tools and approaches to investigate a broader range of questions....

The Richter site (47DR80) located on Washington Island, Door County Wisconsin was excavated by the University of Wisconsin field school during 1968 and 1973. Large quantities of ceramic materials were recovered. This site was identified as belonging to the Middle Woodland North Bay culture as defined by Mason. Among the body sherds were those with smooth or cordmarked exterior surfaces. Smooth surfaced sherds exhibited breaks along coil lines, indicative of coil construction technique....

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. For over 15,000 years, dogs have been accorded varying social roles within human society. In view of this, the Canine Surrogacy Approach derives from observations that dogs often consume the same food as people and accompany humans during migration. Dogs are commonly granted similar burial customs, as well. I explore this proxy approach through the case study...
