This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. On Dec. 15, 1944, a B-24 took off on a night navigation mission from Chatham Air Field in Georgia, headed to Florida. The crew of nine were training to patrol the East Coast for enemy submarines. Fifteen minutes into the flight, engine #1 caught fire. The bomber crashed less than five minutes later into swampland in the lowcountry of South Carolina. This...

English forts in the Carolina colony embody the ongoing struggle between the ambitions of imperial impositions and the aspirations of frontier autonomy. This tension is acutely reflected in the spatial organization of forts. Whereas colonial authorities sought to separate Europeans, Africans, and Native Americans through the formal segregation of the built environment, life on the frontier encouraged a fluidity in space and identity. The theoretical construct of flat ontologies can be used to...

SEARCH, in partnership with Alabama Port Authority and other local, state, and federal agencies, conducted a maritime archaeological assessment of Mobile Bay, Alabama, including archival research and a marine remote sensing survey. As a result of this investigation, archaeologists documented numerous navigational obstructions placed in upper Mobile Bay during the American Civil War. These obstructions consist of shipwrecks, bricks, and wood pilings. This Confederate obstruction provides a unique...

Today Cahuitan fishermen often build and design their own fishing boats used for snorkel tours, lobster diving and artisanal fishing. These watercraft come in a variety of sizes, design and hull decorations. The builders have detailed knowledge about functions and features. Up until the early 1980s all these watercraft were log boat designs, evolving rapidly into modern fiberglass or dugouts covered in fiberglass. Distinctively designed oars are handmade with machetes and used to propel boats...

While crossing the desert clandestinely, migrants routinely experience a broad range of physical injuries including dehydration, hyperthermia, exhaustion, cuts, bruises, and blisters, all of which are conceptualized by federal law enforcement to act as forms of deterrence.  Drawing on a combination of interviews with migrants and experimental research on hiking injuries, we highlight the many ways that the desert hurts people and the various coping strategies that border crossers have developed....

On the East Coast of North America, nodules of flint often are encountered in ballast piles.  Many archaeologists assert an ability to identify visually when these are of European origin. While, anecdotally, this appears to be generally true, most archaeologists cannot articulate the specific factors they employ in making the identification.  This project, which builds on Barbara Luedtke’s 1992 work, examines geological terminology, tests the visual identification assertion, and employs XRF and...

This is a poster submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The Florida Public Archaeology Network’s East Central Region partnered with Wops Hops Brewing Company in Sanford Florida to engage the public through the “Florida Tales through Ales” lecture series wherein a presentation by an archaeologist was paired with an ale brewed inspired by the archaeological research. The first ale, “She’s a Beaut,” drew inspiration from the Black Drink to...

Paleoindian points from Florida are different from the rest of the Southeast. Instrument-assisted fluting was never adopted, and Florida produced some apparently post-Clovis forms that are unlike any elsewhere. Several attempts have been made to sort out the myriad forms. This attempt uses landmark-based geometric morphometrics to more objectively distinguish fluted point forms.

The plethora of colorful murals on buildings, stone statues, lyrics and sounds of calypso and reggae music, small fishing boats and folklore expand the maritime historical narrative. Themes include dramatic stories about shipwrecks and survivors, nature conservation debates, earthquakes, local wildlife, and fishing adventures. The ECU maritime studies team will present an...

The world of enslaved African Americans included not only the solid ground beneath their feet and other physical landmarks, but also the sky above them, replete with planets and stars.  In a world without maps, compasses or, in many instances, the ability to read directions, the enslaved were dependent upon visual cues for making their way through the landscape.  Oral traditions and historical documents reveal that planets and constellations were important guides for finding one’s way,...

Refining site chronologies on predominantly nineteenth century sites is a goal of many historical archaeologists. This paper analyzes transferprint colors and identified patterns recovered from Andrew Jackson’s The Hermitage plantation as one analytical solution. The dataset consists of thousands of sherds excavated from yard spaces and structures built when Jackson acquired the property in 1804, in an area known as the First Hermitage. Using the same approach outlined in the DAACS Hermitage...

Louisiana is known for its historic and iconic cemeteries which feature above ground monuments, vaults, and tombs. However, equal numbers of cemeteries are in-ground, and are often lost or forgotten. Due to the accessibility of the above-ground cemeteries, these spaces make for easy targets of vandalism, are used for religious worship, impede construction efforts, and become impacted by natural disasters. The in-ground cemeteries are often encountered in urban development and during disaster...
