Mi Querencia: A Connection Between Place and Identity (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Levi Romero.

This is an abstract from the "Chicanx Archaeology" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. What is the connection between place and identity? The story of human existence is one of movement and settlement. Origin stories the world over feature accounts of where a people came from as a way of telling how they came to be. Northern New Mexico cultural envoy, Juan Estevan Arellano, used the traditional northern New Mexico concept of querencia to define the...


Micaceous Mindsets: Chemical Characterization of Classic Period Utility Wares at Multiple Sites Along the Rio Grande (2024)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Blaine Burgess. Jeffrey Ferguson. Suzanne Eckert.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Micaceous utility wares are commonly found at Ancestral Pueblo villages along the Rio Grande and adjacent areas, yet they have received comparatively little attention relative to the contemporary well-studied glaze wares. Compositional studies show that glaze ware vessels and their ingredients were often transported across the landscape, driven by a mix of...

Micro Currencies Can Rapidly Appear Among Energy Maximizers: A Case Study from the Southern Sierra Nevada Foothills (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Micah Hale. Adam Giacinto. Nicholas Hanten.

A recent, large-scale archaeological investigation in the southern Sierra Nevada foothills revealed the development of a locally circumscribed steatite bead-making industry. Made from a local steatite source, these rough, thin, square beads are accompanied by the entire range of production debris and bead making tools, collectively dating to the post-Mission historic period. I argue these steatite beads represent a micro-currency developed as an energy maximizing response to decreased...


Micro-regional Archaeology Underwater: Approaches to Documenting Submerged Prehistoric Sites. (2020)
DOCUMENT Citation Only John M O'Shea. Ashley K Lemke.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Love That Dirty Water: Submerged Landscapes and Precontact Archaeology" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. It is now widely recognized that key portions of the global archaeological record can only be found underwater. While submerged prehistoric sites can yield crucial evidence and often preserve organic remains and other features rarely encountered on land, they pose unique challenges. To investigate these...

Microbes On A Seventeenth-Century Salted Beef Replica And Their Effects On Health (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Erika Davila. Elizabeth Latham. Grace Tsai. Robin Anderson.

Seventeenth-century cookbooks, sailors’ records, and data from archaeological faunal remains were used to replicate salted beef for the Ship Biscuit & Salted Beef Research Project. Samples of salted beef and brine were taken out regularly and tested for microbes at the USDA Agricultural Research Service laboratory in College Station, Texas. Our team, using selective plating techniques, isolated the microbes for downstream DNA sequencing of the 16s rRNA gene. This paper presents the taxonomic...


Microbial Ecology of Gulf of Mexico Shipwrecks (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Patrick M. Gillevet. Christine McGown. Lisa A. Fitzgerald. Leila Hamdan.

Microbiomes associated with wooden and steel shipwrecks were investigated using next generation sequencing.  Samples were derived from in situ biofilm monitoring platforms deployed for ~4 months, and sediment collected ~2-5 m from shipwrecks.  The goal of the investigation is to determine rates of recruitment and community structure at sites located within and outside of areas impacted by the Deepwater Horizon spill (DWHS). Sediments will elucidate the influence of shipwrecks on the geochemistry...

Mid-19th-Century Irish-American Foodways in New York City: Evidence from the Five Points Site in Lower Manhattan (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Pam J Crabtree.

The Five Points Site was part of a multi-ethnic, working class neighbourhood located in lower Manhattan; the site was excavated by John Milner Associates in the 1990s. Claudia Milne and I identified and analysed the faunal remains from features associated with first generation Italian-Americans, Central European Jewish-Americans, and Irish-Americas. This presentation will focus on the faunal remains from the Irish-American contexts which date to the 1850s. Analyses based on species and body...


Mid-20th century colonialism in Nigeria: Exploring the Impact of Archaeology and Museums during the final years of the British Empire in West Africa (2020)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Tomos Ll Evans.

This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In 1953, three colonial archaeologists would perform extensive fieldwork in the sacred city of Ile-Ife, Nigeria. In cooperation with the Ooni (King) of the city, the researchers embarked on a mission to acquire and understand the resplendent artworks of Ile-Ife, revive and reinvent aspects of the city's cultural heritage, and develop a new museum to centralise the discoveries being...


Mid-Nineteenth Century Clay Smoking Pipes From Fort Hoskins And Fort Yamhill, Oregon (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Diane Zentgraf.

Soldiers stationed at two remote Pacific Northwest military forts, Fort Hoskins (1856-1865) and Fort Yamhill (1856-1866), Oregon, led a monotonous life in the wet, dreary western Oregon coastal mountain range.  The repetitive nature of military life for these men was relieved by what was considered at the time a pleasure and a distraction, the smoking pipe.  Fortunately for these soldiers it was the peak of European and American manufacture of clay smoking pipes in variety, quality and artistry....

Middle Grant Creek: a rare example of a single component Huber phase site on the Illinois prairie (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Madeleine McLeester. Mark Schurr.

Our understanding of the protohistoric Huber phase is limited by our small sample of sites from this complex period. We present preliminary findings from the summer 2016 excavation at the Middle Grant Creek (MGC) site at Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie in Wilmington, IL. The site is a well-preserved single component Huber phase, warm weather camp that survived historic farmsteads and the construction and abandonment of an Army arsenal. MGC expands the sample of Huber sites and provides...


The Middle Ohio Valley Fort Ancient Transformation as Viewed from Fox Farm (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only David Pollack. A. Gwynn Henderson.

Throughout the middle Ohio Valley, archaeologists have documented ca. A.D. 1400 region-wide changes in material culture and settlement patterns that they have characterized as the Madisonville Horizon. Established ca. A.D. 1300, the three hundred year continuous occupation of Fox Farm, located in northern Kentucky, spans the Fort Ancient transformation (A.D. 1375-1425). As the site grew in size during the fourteenth century, the settlement shifted from a circular to clustered arrangement of...


Middle San Juan Ancestral Puebloan Communities of Practice-Connections and Networking in the US Southwest (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Steven Rospopo. Linda Wheelbarger. Nicholas Jew.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Some Southwest researchers consider the Middle San Juan area insignificant when compared to the Cibola-Chaco traditional homelands to the south and the Mesa Verde traditional homelands to the North. On the contrary, ongoing research suggests a web of dynamic interregional and intraregional networks existed in the Middle San Juan from AD 750 to regional...

Migration and Cultural Emplacement on the Mississippian Periphery: A Fort Ancient Example (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Aaron Comstock. Robert Cook.

Recent excavations at the Turpin site (33HA19) in southwest Ohio, have reestablished the importance of population movement in cultural emplacement in this region. Although the predominant model for Fort Ancient evolution in the Middle Ohio Valley posits gradual village development and relatively late (post-AD 1400) Mississippian influence, work at Turpin and other sites in the lower Miami Valleys suggests that the movement of Mississippian people acted as a catalyst for change beginning around...
