A societal "frontier" is always a relational concept. What looks like a periphery, whether imagined as a line or a zone, from one vantage point may from another look like an invaded heartland. The diverse nature of French colonialism in North America suggests the complexity of frontiers it induced. I review my 1981 article, "Frontiers and Archaeology," with perspective gained across thirty-five years, to consider whether the frontier concept has any current utility for the archaeology of French...

This is an abstract from the "Building Bridges: Papers in Honor of Teresita Majewski" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The historic town-site of Agate Bay, on the north shore of Lake Superior in present-day Two Harbors, was developed in the 1880s in conjunction with and as a consequence of the opening of Minnesota’s first (Vermilion) Iron Range. Popular historic accounts claim that Agate Bay was a rough-and-tumble frontier settlement that became...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The focus of this research is the variability of ceramics from Late Woodland (A.D. 400-1000) sites in the Little Miami River Valley in Hamilton County, Ohio. Few Late Woodland features have been recovered and little is known about the ceramic technology in southwest Ohio, but these artifacts still play a major role in understanding prehistoric societies. The...

This paper argues for a rethinking of colonialism as an historical process in which overwhelming European power resulted in the extinction of indigenous peoples. Instead this suggests that a different history unfolded in which indigenous peoples demonstrated great innovation and cultural perseverance in not succumbing to the inevitability inherent in the political discourse of the past two hundred years. Colonialism clearly resulted in struggles over territory, sovereignty and cultural identity,...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Upper San Juan region of northern New Mexico and southern Colorado is an area of unique cultural developments related to, but differing from, the adjacent Chaco, Mesa Verde, and Rio Grande regions. Our knowledge of both internal developments and status of relations with external groups is poorly understood in comparison to those neighboring regions. This...

Since Historic St. Mary’s City began its investigations at the Leonard Calvert site in 1980, a remarkable suite of material culture has emerged from this premier colonial site. This presentation looks back over some of the artifacts recovered and provides some context for a number of the more remarkable objects. Ceramics, tobacco pipes, small finds, and glassware are all represented.  Ceramics include Dutch tin glazed earthenware, Rhenish stoneware, and tiles, while glass includes façon de...

In 1900, Greek sponge divers stumbled upon what was to become one of themost iconic and fabulous shipwrecks ever found in the Mediterranean close to the tiny Greek Island of Antikythera- the Antikythera shipwreck.  Over the course of several perilous months of diving, despite  numerous episodes of the bends and a fatality, the divers recovered a treasure of Classical bronze and marble statuary and the famous Antikythera Mechanism- the world's oldest known mechanical computer.   Since 2013,...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "African Diaspora in Florida" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Gracia Real de Santa Teresa de Mose, or Fort Mose, was a fortified settlement established in 1738 by the Spanish governor of Florida, and populated by recently self-emancipated Africans as a defensive element to the town of St. Augustine. The earliest free African town in what is now the United States, Mose was attacked and destroyed by the...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Archaeological Research of the 17th Century Chesapeake" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In March of 1622, nearly a third of Virginia’s English population was killed in a surprise attack by the local Powhatan with the goal of hampering the English expansion efforts, and to reassert their supremacy over the newcomers. Martin’s Hundred, a fortified settlement founded by the English four years earlier, and...

This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In the summer and fall of 2019, a team from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution and staff from NOAA Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary (SBNMS) conducted an interdisciplinary exploration, survey, and telepresence outreach of biological and cultural sites within Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary (SBNMS). This first year of a multi-year project included archaeological...

Indianola, Texas was the commercial gem of the western Gulf of Mexico during the height of its existence, from the late 1850s until its abandonment in 1887. Responsible for much of the commerce entering western Texas and the western territories via the Gulf of Mexico, Indianola has been largely overlooked archaeologically, despite a high potential for the presence of a significant amount of cultural materials.  A team of archaeologists from Texas A&M University, the Institute of Nautical...

Archaeological excavations and presentations are memory-work, offering tactile and visual materials for consideration of the past. In a coastal Florida city, growing rapidly through in-migration of retirees and service industry employment opportunities, there are few aware or concerned over history. Yet the past haunts the Florida Gulf Coast and the expanding interest in heritage includes competitions among historians and archaeologists, residents and tourists, and development interests and...

This is an abstract from the "13,000 Years of Adaptation in the Sonoran Desert at La Playa, Sonora" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This paper presents a reconstruction of the cultural landscape of the La Playa Site in Sonora (SON F:10:3) during the Early Agriculture period (3450–1800 BP). We employ a paleoethnobotanical approach, analyzing 150 macrobotanical samples alongside ethnobotanical investigations, ethnographic data, and oral tradition...

Hopewell Culture National Historical Park preserves six monumental mound and earthwork complexes in south-central Ohio. Archaeological attention in the 19th and 20th centuries remained narrowly focused on mounds and mortuary contexts, ignoring the vast spaces between the monuments. At the same time, agricultural plowing steadily eroded the above-grade features. Recently, the National Park Service forged an international partnership to conduct high-resolution, landscape-scale geomagnetic surveys...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Northeast Region National Park Service Archeological Landscapes and the Stories They Tell" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Baseline documentation and climate change research focus on identifying and interpreting archeological remains to help guide immediate- to long term treatment and preservation of the actively eroding Saint Croix Island. The integrated high resolution remote sensing surveys on the...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Twenty-five years of excavation at Fort St. Joseph, an eighteenth-century mission, garrison, and trading post, have uncovered a large variety of artifacts, including hundreds of ceramic sherds. These ceramic pieces can provide valuable information about individuals living at the post including their socioeconomic status and access to materials. Information...
