DOCUMENT Citation Only Fraser Neiman.

This is an abstract from the "Practical Approaches to Identifying Evolutionary Processes in the Archaeological Record" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. For decades archaeologists have used optimization models to puzzle out how artifacts served the fitness interests of their makers and users. This paper offers a simple optimization model to clarify how selective pressures (e.g. household size and occupation span) shape the maintenance of space on...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Perspectives from the Study of Early Colonial Encounter in North America: Is it time for a “revolution” in the study of colonialism?" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In the contemporary landscapes of the United States, there are many social and economic inequalities tied to the production, distribution and consumption of food. When constructing solutions to overcome those food-centered inequalities, it is...

Florida’s current commercial salvage legislation, Rule 1A-31, serves as a way for the state to better work with and regulate the treasure hunting industry by issuing exploration and recovery permits. This paper looks in depth at 1A-31 to explore the development of this legislation as well as compare it to previous related state programs. Additionally, Florida's state legislationg will be compared and related to federal legislation such as the Abondoned Shipwreck Act. This paper will address...

The Anne Arundel County Department of Planning and Zoning, Cultural Resources Division (CRD), employs only one professional archaeologist but contracts with several independent consultants in order to support its regulatory mandates and programmatic goals. These consultants are responsible for a wide variety of tasks that include staffing an open-door lab, designing Traveling Exhibits that encourage education and conversation about personal collections, and conducting site visits to identify,...

This is an abstract from the "What’s Canoe? Recent Research on Dugouts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Long before colonization, coastal inhabitants in Carolina’s Lowcountry used dugout canoes for trading, fishing, and gathering oysters. When the English intruded into this watery environment in 1670, many settlers migrated from Barbados, bringing captive Africans and hopes for establishing a profitable system of slave-based, staple-crop...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "From Maryland’s Ancient [Seat] and Chief of Government: Papers in Honor of Henry M. Miller" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Bioarchaeological research at St. Mary’s City began in the early 1990s with “Project Lead Coffins.” This excavation of three burials from inside the 17th-century Great Brick Chapel – since identified as members of the prominent Calvert family – was followed by osteological analyses of...

This research demonstrates the importance of geomorphology in archaeological field observations and studies.  To receive accurate and faster results of terrestrial sites, one must see the area in a geomorphic view.  Just from recognizing geomorphic characteristics, one can see the patterns of how the environment has cultivated. Turning back chronologic time and being able to visualize how people lived in their environments is extremely important for any archaeologist.  The everyday life of past...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Arming the Resistance: Recent Scholarship in Chinese Diaspora Archaeology" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In this opening paper, I set the stage for the presentations and discussions that follow by examining the ways archaeologists of the Chinese diaspora have explored the topic of “revolution,” as defined in the conference theme. I draw on recently published literature and on an imminently forthcoming...

Many of the nineteenth century roads that enabled Yosemite National Park to become a national treasure – Wawona Road, Glacier Point Road, Great Sierra Wagon Road, and the Washburn Road to the Mariposa Grove of Giant Sequoias ‒ were built by Chinese workers. Chinese cooks, servants, hotel employees, and farm/ranch hands contributed to the park’s tourist services into the early 20th century. Today, few traces of this Chinese presence remain: stone walls, roadbeds, bridges, and a handful of...

The NMNH Repatriation Program is charged under the NMAI Act to use the "best available scientific and historical documentation" to identify the origins of the human remains and objects in its collections. The nature of the museum means that the office can rely on the scholarship of Smithsonian curators for assistance. In addition, copious records in the National Anthropological Archive and in the Smithsonian Archives are present that relate to the collections. However, the records sometimes...

Underneath the well-manicured landscape of Christiansted National Historic Site stood the center of Danish Caribbean commerce, the Danish West India and Guinea Company Warehouse. Through these doors flowed the lifeblood of the Danish colonial experience – sugar and slave. Since 2015, the National Park Service, as partners in the Slave Wrecks Project, has been conducting a community archaeological program that introduces archaeology and heritage management to local students. The goal of this...
