Bringing It All Back Home: The Archaeology of Diasporic Homelands (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Stephen A. Brighton.

In the context of modern history, diaspora is traditionally defined as a reluctant scattering of a large number of people to two or more international locations. Most studies in the social sciences and humanities have concentrated efforts towards understanding how new experiences and contacts have shaped diasporic groups once away from their homelands. In essence, most studies are structured by the culture continuity/cultural change dynamic in new places of settlement. The established focus of...

Bringing Public Archeology HOME: Reflections on Citizen Science at Homestead National Monument of America (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Rebecca L Wiewel. Dawn Bringelson.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Archeology, Citizen Science, and the National Park Service" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Although citizen science in its current form is perhaps most associated with biological disciplines, archeologists have harnessed this powerful tool for some time. Yet citizen science in archeology presents its own challenges, including the need for more direct supervision with most data collection and the need to...

Bringing the Neighborhood Back to Life: Working-Class Consumption and Immigrant Identity in 19th-Century Roxbury, Massachusetts (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Janice A. Nosal.

Working with the past always presents a bevy of challenges for researchers, and when material collections fall into disuse, it can be especially difficult to appreciate their intrinsic value. Incorporating new technological methods (GIS) and primary document research allows archaeologists to synthesize original excavation and background information in innovative ways. The Southwest Corridor Project (Roxbury, Boston, MA), excavated in the 1970s, is a perfect collection for these purposes. ...

Bringing the Public into the Process: the Montpelier Digital Collections Project and Mere Distinction of Colour Virtual Exhibit (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Mary Furlong Minkoff. Benjamin C Kirby. Terry Brock.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Digital Technologies and Public Archaeology" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. When archaeologists and other researchers first entered into the digital world they had an “if you build it they will come” approach to public digital projects. Projects were considered public by simply being on the internet. However, as the digital field has grown it has quickly become evident that the most successful digital...

DOCUMENT Citation Only David J. Goldstein.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Archeology, Citizen Science, and the National Park Service" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The National Park Service has a developing Traditional Knowledge Program that has increasingly been used in tandem with more formal park programming.

Bringing Water to the Desert: the Civilian Conservation Corps at Petrified Forest National Park (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only William T Reitze. Melyssa Huston.

Over the last four years Petrified Forest National Park has begun to replace the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) installed waterline which carries drinking water to the original headquarters complex at Rainbow Forest. At the completion of the project in 1940 the Rainbow Forest Waterline represented the longest CCC hand-dug waterline in a National Park. Survey and recording, currently in progress, along the complete 26 mile corridor has documented a detailed archaeological record of the lives...

British Capital, Mercury Miners, and Transfer Print Ceramics in 19th Century Peru (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Douglas K Smit.

During the late 18th century, Spanish colonies in South America increasingly liberalized their trade policies, leading to an increased access to British goods such as transfer print ceramics. In Peru, the importation of transfer print ceramics grew rapidly after independence in 1824, along with the entry of British capital into the mining sector of the Peruvian economy. This paper examines the role of transfer print ceramics at Santa Barbara, an indigenous mercury mining community located...

British Ceramics at the Empire’s Edge: Economy and Identity Among Subaltern Groups in Late 19th-Century British Honduras (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Brooke Bonorden. Brett A. Houk.

Following the outbreak of the Caste War in the Yucatán (1847-1901), a group of approximately 1,000 Maya migrated into northwestern British Honduras (Belize) and settled 20 small villages. Far from the principal population centers of the Yucatán, the Petén, and Belize City, the only other inhabitants in this region were logging gangs predominantly composed of descendants of African slaves who seasonally inhabited the mahogany camps of the Belize Estate and Produce Company’s (BEC) vast land...

British Ceramics, Indigenous Miners, and the Commercialization of Daily Practice in Late Colonial Huancavelica (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Douglas K Smit.

Throughout the 18th century, indigenous Andean miners at the Huancavelica mercury mine increasingly entered into wage labor agreements with Spanish mine owners in order to avoid the harsher conditions of the mita labor draft. This shift from forced to free labor increased the circulation of specie within the mining community, and as a result, the miners began increasingly participating in local, regional, and global markets. Drawing upon recent excavations at the indigenous mining settlement of...

British Colonial Bateaux in North America (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Nathan A. Gallagher.

Bateaux were a key utility craft in military operations in the colonies of North America. Their size, durability, and ease of construction made them ideal for moving troops and supplies over the lakes and rivers of New England and New France. The purpose of this presentation is to provide a construction analysis of the remains of some British colonial bateaux recovered from Lake George and place them in their historical context. The craft were built from a very simple design, and were hastily...
