Sulfur Isotope Ratios of Terrestrial and Coastal Fauna on the Southeastern Coast: A Step toward Resolving Equifinality in Human Paleodiet Reconstructions (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Logan Van Hagen. Douglas Dvoracek. Laurie Reitsema. Carol Colaninno-Meeks.

Sulfur isotope ratios in human bone collagen are used in paleodiet reconstructions to distinguish between marine- and terrestrial-based diets, because sulfur isotope ratios in marine organisms are typically higher. However, natural phenomena such as sea spray, rain, and flooding can deposit sea water sulfates on land that are bioavailable to plants and terrestrial animals. Comparing sulfur from archaeological deer and fish-eating raccoons from sites both in close proximity to the coast and...


Sultan: Cleveland’s Grindstone Wreck (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only David M. VanZandt. Kevin S. Magee.

Due to a novice captain’s error in judgment the brigantine Sultan foundered in Lake Erie off Cleveland, Ohio during a storm in 1864.  As the brigantine came to rest in shallow water only a few miles from shore with masts exposed, six of the eight crew climbed the rigging in an effort to survive.  One by one, however, the crew succumbed to the fury of the storm leaving a sole survivor to be rescued and to share the harrowing tale.     The wreck of the Sultan was discovered in 2011 by the...


Sultana: Greatest Maritime Tragedy in United States History: A Nation's Best Kept Secret (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Lindsay S Scott.

The disaster of Sultana has been recognized as the greatest maritime tragedy in United States history.  The wreck has little notoriety, despite its significance, due to historical overshadowing and a terminal resting place in the landlocked state of Arkansas.  Efforts for salvage were immediate, but archaeological undertakings have been cautious and sporadic.  An unwelcoming landscape and lack of interest and funding have consorted so that as we approach the sesquicentennial anniversary of...

Summer Harvests, Winter Meals: Home Canning at the African American Community of Timbuctoo, NJ (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Christopher P. Barton.

This paper focuses on the continuing work at the African American community of Timbuctoo in Westampton, New Jersey. While our initial guiding questions sought to uncover cultural retentions that could be retraced to West Africa, the realities of our archaeological work shifted our focus to a complex discourse on social and economic class. Specifically, this paper discusses the practice of home canning as a medium to resist and improvise against economic marginalization. Through this discussion,...


Sunken Aircraft of the Battle of Midway (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Bert S. Ho. Kelly Gleason Keogh.

In June of 2017, the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Midway will occur as archeologists begin the first dedicated project to discover the sunken aircraft at the atoll involved in the battle. Often considered as the turning point of the Pacific Front in World War II, Midway has been difficult to study archaeologically because of the remoteness of the location, and the difficulty in surveying around the treacherous reefs that surround it. Efforts to locate submerged aircraft have been made...


The Sunken Military Craft Inventory: Navy Sinking Exercise (SINKEX) Vessels and the Challenge of Dynamic Research (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Alicia Massey.

The new Sunken Military Craft Act regulations encouraged a reexamination of the Sunken Military Craft Inventory (SMCI). SMCI research is a dynamic process that continues to expand the management of sunken military craft overtime. The SMCI was challenged on 7 July 2014 when Nautilus Live discovered the USS Peterson (DD-969) in the Gulf of Mexico. The USS Peterson was a Navy sinking exercise (SINKEX) vessel that was intentionally sunk on 16 February 2004.  This discovery prompted detailed research...


Sunken US Navy Submarines: Archaeological Sites And War Graves of the World Wars (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Robert S Neyland.

This presentation discusses the quantity and context of the US Navy's submarine losses during World War I, World War II and the Cold War. The wrecks include losses due to combat, misadventure, and intentional scuttling.  Submarine wrecks representing war graves are given special consideration since they represent more than wreck sites for research, but also places that should be respected. The locations and causes of sinking of many submarines have been documented, however the final resting...


"Superior to Any Other House in the South or West": The Daniel Edwards Foundry of New Orleans. (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Miguel Gutierrez.

Archaeological recovery efforts at the site of CSS Georgia revealed brass and copper instruments known as gun sights. These gun sights facilitated the aiming of naval guns and are relatively rare in archaeological settings. After the American Civil War, material composed of cupreous metals, such as these sights, was melted and repurposed. A maker’s mark stamped on one of these instruments indicates that the manufacturer of these items was a certain Daniel Edwards whose foundry business was in...


Superstition, Ritual, and Religion Among Ancient and Early Modern Seafarers (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Rachel L Matheny. Annaliese Dempsey.

This is an abstract from the "Current Research in Maritime Archaeology" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Seafarers have long been associated with ritual and superstition.  Maritime ritual in Antiquity was often rooted in religion, as sailors for instance offered libations to the gods for a safe voyage.  In the early modern period, however, seafaring cultural practices were characterized as superstitious, and the ritualized activities on board...
