Cold Water Volunteers Their Role in Lake Champlain's Submerged Heritage Programs (1995)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Giovanna Peebles.

From the beginning steps in 1979 to record and learn about the Lake’s submerged heritage, volunteer sportdivers have provided leadership and labor for surveys and documentation studies. Volunteer sportdivers continue to play key roles in fund raising, advocacy, and education and outreach programs about Lake Champlain’s submerged historic heritage. The Vermont model of volunteer sportdivers as vital components of an underwater archaeology program is mirrored in all states that have successful...

Conservation of Waterlogged Linoleum (2004)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Bobbyejo Evon Coke.

Linoleum has been around for over a hundred years. With its invention by Frederick Walton in the 1860’s a new means of durable floor covering was introduced to the world. This new invention was promoted as durable, hygienic, and easy to maintain. In agreement with the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum, a study was commissioned to seek the best means to conserve linoleum from a canal boat excavated in the summer of 2002 in Lake Champlain. The Sloop Island Canal Boat is part of an excavation project...

The Enshrining of Fort Ste. Anne: Forgotten Memories and Selective Reconstruction of Vermont's Earliest European Occupation Site (2008)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Jessica R. Desaney.

This article in the Society for American Archaeology's (SAA) publication The SAA Archaeological Record recounts the excavations of a Historic period fort built by the French in 1666 on Isle La Motte, Vermont, an island on the northern edge of Lake Champlain. The fort was partially excavated in the early 1900's and a small, Catholic shrine to fur traders was built from building material and artifacts. This piece is a reflection on the construction of memory and identity through connections to...

Evidence of early tobacco in Northeastern North America? (2006)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Sean M. Rafferty.

While tobacco use was a widespread and important social practice among Native Americans during the Historic Period, the prehistoric origins of the practice are poorly understood. Smoking pipes significantly predate botanical evidence of tobacco in Eastern North America. A promising technique for addressing this problem is gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy (GC/MS) analysis to identify nicotine or related compounds in smoking pipe residues. GC/MS analysis of a smoking pipe dating to...

Filling the Archaeological Void: Saint Lawrence Iroquoians in Alburg, Vermont (2005)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Thomas R. Jamison.

Samuel de Champlain reported the presence of Native American groups around the north end of Lake Champlain prior to 1609 (Bassett 1967). However, the archeaology of Grand Isle County, Vermont, has only been minimally examined. Few archaeological sites have been previously identified in the town of Alburg, a pattern that is characteristic of the county overall.. Until recently, most of the sites identified in the town were found by collectors and have not been confirmed by controlled excavation...

Lake Champlain Underwater Cultural Resources Survey - Volume VI: 2001 Results and Volume VII: 2002 Results (2002)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Adam I. Kane. Christopher R. Sabick. Sara Brigadier.

The introduction of zebra mussels in the early 1990s and the inevitable approaching infestation of quagga mussels seriously threaten Lake Champlain's underwater cultural resources. These non-native aquatic nuisance species endanger the preservation of submerged cultural resources, obscure them, and hinder their documentation and study. Mussel colonies also threaten to degrade underwater cultural resources physically because of their weight and corrosive action. As of this writing, no effective...

Lake Champlain Underwater Cultural Resources Survey - Volume VIII: 2003 Results and Volume IX: 2004 Results (2007)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Adam I. Kane. A. Peter Barranco. Joanne M. DellaSalla. Sarah E. Lyman. Christopher R. Sabick.

The introduction of zebra mussels in the early 1990s and the inevitable approaching infestation of quagga mussels (Dreissena polymorpha) seriously threaten Lake Champlain's underwater cultural resources. These non-native aquatic nuisance species endanger the preservation of submerged cultural resources, obscure them, and hinder their documentation and study. In studying this issue, the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum determined that one positive reaction to the situation would be to locate and...

Obsidian In Vermont: Analysis of an Arrowhead in the Gerald Coane Collection (2008)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Matthew Boulanger. Thomas R. Jamison.

Archaeologists are particularly interested in identifying evidence of prehistoric long-distance trade and exchange, and artifacts made from stone are some of the best records of such exchange because they can be traced back to specific geological outcrops. Archaeologists often develop an intuitive knowledge about the types of stone and their potential sources that were used prehistorically. In Vermont for example, most archaeologists recognize quartzite from the Cheshire formation or chert from...
