This is an abstract from the session entitled "Perspectives from the Study of Early Colonial Encounter in North America: Is it time for a “revolution” in the study of colonialism?" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In the last two decades scholars have rejected the bifurcation of “continuity” or “change” in studies Indigenous experiences of early colonialism in North America. Instead, archaeologists increasingly favor process and practice approaches,...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Medieval to Modern Transitions and Historical Archaeology" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. This paper explores the implications of an archaeology of colonialism and modernity in Iceland. Colonialism in ‘Old Society’ Iceland was realized in the regulation of trade, and informal and formal administration by Norway, England, and Denmark. Colonial administrators and foreign tourists often viewed Iceland as...

Where did ‘colonialism’ come from?  Clearly, and at once, colonialism is a set of practices that can be traced back to the ancient and medieval worlds.  However, also and at the same time, it is an analytical term which, if used loosely, holds the danger of uncritically back-projecting a 19th century model of colonial worlds into earlier centuries.  How to map patterns of colonial practice before they were colonial?  This paper tries to engage with this difficult issue through a comparative...

This is an abstract from the "Recent Colonial Archaeological Research in the American Midcontinent" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In the late eighteenth century, the Mississippi Headwaters and Great Lakes area bustled with mobile European- and métis-descended traders hoping to make a trade with local Indigenous peoples. Often referred to as “the fur trade,” this willful exchange provided a stage for sets of relationships to be established,...

This is an abstract from the "Recent Colonial Archaeological Research in the American Midcontinent" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Applying a feminist intersectionality theoretical perspective in close readings of historical markers in Detroit reveals their intersecting colonialist racist and sexist biases. Of Detroit’s 265 historical markers, 89% include men, 63% include white men, but only 26% include women, of which 71% are white. Native...

Following the Spanish colonization of New Mexico, Pueblo peoples began to adopt various technologies, cultural practices, and beliefs introduced to them by their colonial overlords.  This tradition continues today, with contemporary appropriations of "foreign" elements into "traditional" Pueblo practices.  How should we as historical archaeologists interpret this appropriation of outside influences and material culture?  This paper explores the phenomenon of post-colonial difference through case...

Following Raymond Williams’ critical analysis of the relationship between the English countryside and its urban counterpart in The Country and the City (1973), this paper expands Williams’ analysis to incorporate the entanglements of the colony, specifically the Caribbean post-colony of Barbados, and English urban centers. Despite studies of well-known historical relationships existing in terms of Atlantic world economics, there has been less discussion of the repercussions of...

This paper investigates whether hatched designs on Hohokam red-on-buff ceramics symbolized colors other than the red that was used to paint them. This idea is an extension of previous research done on Ancestral Pueblo and Mogollon black-on-white pottery. J.J. Brody initiated these investigations with his suggestion that hachure on Chaco ceramics from northwest New Mexico represented the color blue-green. Stephen Plog subsequently confirmed this hypothesis by comparing the colors and designs on...

Sitting one quarter of a mile from the banks of the Ohio River in New Richmond, Ohio, are the foundational remnants of a 19th century school house and associated dormitory.The historical and archaeological work of this site are part of an ongoing transdisciplinary project, named for the school, The Parker Academy Project. The college preparatory academy, opened in 1839 by Reverend Daniel Parker and his wife, Priscilla Parker, is the first known documented school in Ohio to accept anyone...

Some call Lexington, Virginia the place "where the South went to die": Generals Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee are buried there, along with countless Confederate soldiers. The extent to which the South truly expired is controversial, given for example the continuing, frequent presence of enthusiasts with gray uniforms and battle flags. How, in this context, have African Americans been memorialized? This paper considers marked and unmarked antebellum burials, Reconstruction-era graves, and...

Created in early Spanish Manila, the Boxer Codex inherited the codices making tradition from the Americas. The illustrations of the Boxer Codex offer some of the earliest images of people living in the Philippine archipelago and its Asian neighbors during the late sixteenth century. This study focuses on the visuality and materiality of the codex illustrations and aims to investigate the nature of the pigments and dyes used in these images. Scientific analysis was conducted with two non-invasive...

This is an abstract from the "Cemeteries and Burial Practices" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The Columbia St. Cemetery Project (CSC) is a joint initiative in Springfield, Ohio bringing together a university, a charitable foundation, the city, and the community to document the city’s oldest cemetery. Located in the heart of downtown Springfield, the small site (7227 m2) is the burial ground for the earliest residents (beginning in 1812) and...

During the late sixteenth and seventeenth century colonization of New Mexico by Spanish colonists and indigenous Mexican auxiliaries, rural ranches or estancias, were established in close proximity to autonomous Pueblo villages along the Rio Grande. These estancias were the setting for complex negotiations of colonial power structures which were based upon the exploitation of labor from indigenous peoples. At LA-20,000, an early colonial estancia located off a branch of El Camino Real near Santa...

In 1844, the Comanche leader Mopechucope signed a treaty with the state of Texas, in which he described central and western Texas as "Comanche land and ever has been" (Gelo 2000: 274; Dorman and Day 1995: 8). Mopechucope’s understanding of Comanche history lies in stark contrast to the narratives of terra nullius and cultural decline found in colonial documents and reified in anthropological and historical scholarship. Drawing on an indigenous understanding of history and place-making this paper...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Strontium and oxygen isotopes preserved within plant and animal remains reflect the regional geology and environment where they originated. This approach relies on a regional map of baseline isotope values – or isoscape – to link values preserved in remains with a region of origin. Mechanistic models, which estimate baseline 87Sr/86Sr based on age and type...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Precise dating of archaeological sites created during the last millennium often benefit from chronological information provided by trade goods but may be hampered by inversions in the radiocarbon calibration curve. Middle Grant Creek is one such site. It is a protohistoric Native American site near present-day Chicago which has yielded a number of European...

In 2015, the Missouri Department of Transportation investigated a mid-nineteenth century property formerly known as the Racine House. From 1850 until 1872, the house operated as a coffee shop, saloon, boarding house, hotel, and general gathering place for working class men. Catering almost exclusively to French-Canadian immigrants, the Racine House was one of many such "social clubs" in this heavily-Germanic neighborhood. Recent archeological excavations uncovered a pair of features located...
