Incipient Pottery Practices and Divergent Complexities in the Late Archaic Southeast (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Zackary Gilmore. Kenneth Sassaman.

This is an abstract from the "Complex Fisher-Hunter-Gatherers of North America" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Pottery technology has long played a central role in evolutionary narratives of early complex societies, most often through its perceived link to other cultural benchmarks such as sedentism, farming, and regionalization. Archaeological research over the past few decades, however, has largely discredited simplistic and monolithic accounts...

Incorporationg Disaster Risk Reduction into Planning for Cultural Resource Preservation (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Alessandra G Jerolleman.

Climate change is exacerbating the risk to cultural resources and historic structures across the United States. These resources are located within a wide array of communities, all of which have differing approaches to planning for disasters. In some communities the approach has been to seek exemptions to all disaster risk reduction requirements, out of fear that the historic character of a resource will be compromised. However, this approach is unsustainable, as the changing nature of the...

Increasing Ocean Literacy and Citizen Science Opportunities for Submerged Cultural Resources in Florida (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Sarah Miller. Jeneva Wright.

In 2016 the Florida Public Archaeology Network launched a new program Heritage Monitoring Scouts (HMS Florida) to increase scientific literacy among the public on impacts to cultural sites by climate change. More than 200 HMS volunteers monitored over 200 sites, both terrestrial and submerged. This paper will share results from the first year of the site stewardship program and take a critical look at how to increase ocean literacy, expand underwater citizen science opportunities, and raise...

"An Indian Nation, whose Object Appears to be to Obtain Both from Britain and Mexico, the Recognition of her Independence": International Diplomacy, Trade, and the Maya of San Pedro (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Minette Church. Christine Kray. Jason Yaeger.

In 1810, British Honduras was a set of coastal settlements, served by the British Foreign Office rather than the Colonial Office, with only usufruct logging rights ceded by Spain in treaty negotiations of 1783/1786. The Foreign Office used the new independence of Mexico, the Federal Republic of Central America, and later Guatemala, as opportunities to renegotiate terms, arguing they were no longer bound by treaties with the now defunct New Spain. At the time of these renegotiations, some Maya...

Indiana’s Maritime Heritage: Ongoing Investigations and Management Strategies for the 1910 Muskegon (aka Peerless) Shipwreck (12LE0381) (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Samuel I. Haskell. Matthew Maus. Charles D Beeker. Kirsten M. Hawley.

Built in 1872 as the Peerless, the Muskegon (12LE0381) was a steamship that operated on the Great Lakes until it was abandoned in 1911. Having functioned as a passenger-freighter, a lumber-hooker, and a sand-sucker during its service, the Muskegon represents important innovations in engineering, commerce, transportation, and industry. Following initial documentation by state archaeologist Gary Ellis in 1987, the Muskegon became the first shipwreck in the State of Indiana to be listed in the...

Indianola, The Forgotten Gateway to Western Texas: A Proposed Plan of Archaeological Investigation, Preservation, and Outreach (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Samuel M Cuellar.

The port of Indianola once served as the Gulf Coast's western terminus, providing the shortest overland routes to the Pacific Coast and access to countless European and American immigrants settling west Texas. By 1871, Indianola was second only to Galveston in the size and traffic of its port. Success was short lived, however. Two successive hurricanes in 1875 and 1886 destroyed the city, causing its widescale distruction and abandonment. Despite a rich, important history, Indianola has not...

Indigeneity and Diaspora: Colonialism and the Classification of Displacement (2013)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Katherine Hayes.

The terms of indigeneity and diaspora are fixtures in scholarly discussion of colonialism, referring to different sets of relations between "homeland" and identity challenged by colonization. The two sets of concepts might also be thought of as maintaining incommensurate statuses for American Indians and African Americans, implying radically different historical experiences. This distinction unfortunately contributes to unhelpful disciplinary and racialized distinctions. In this paper I...

Individual and Collective Memory of WWII in the Pacific: How Can Archaeology Contribute? (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Toni Carrell. Jennifer F McKinnon.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Historical Memory, Archaeology, And The Social Experience Of Conflict and Battlefields" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In June and July of 1944, the US and Japan waged war on the island of Saipan. This battle not only included those combatants, but also the largest civilian population yet encountered. Most historical accounts are written from the perspective of the US or Japanese and largely ignore those...

The Individual and the Group at 17th Century Mission Santa Catalina de Guale (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Elliot Blair.

The individual as an entity in the past and an object of anthropological and archaeological study has often been debated. In this paper I consider the presence and role of the individual as an actor within colonial contexts. Using the methods of social network analysis, I explore the relationship between groups, individuals, and objects at 17th century Mission Santa Catalina de Guale, a Franciscan mission located on St. Catherines Island, GA. I argue that the methods of social network analysis...

Individual Creativity, Instrumental Symbolism, and the Constituents of Social Identity Construction (2013)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Christopher Fennell.

This presentation applies theories concerning the role of individual creativity and innovation, modes of symbolic expression, and formation of social group identities to analyze the past creation and use of material expressions of symbols within the diasporas of particular African cultures. Utilizing archaeological and historical evidence, I explore the divergent ways these creative processes played out at sites in South America, the Caribbean, and North America. The perseverance and creativity...

Industrial Community Organization in Antebellum West Florida (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Adrianne B Sams.

Antebellum industrialization in West Florida fostered diverse settlements associated with water-powered mill complexes. Abundant natural resources and desirable landscape characteristics provided an ideal setting for silvicultural pursuits as opposed to agrarian endeavors that relied heavily on suitable soils. Mill seats represent unique landscapes that differ from agrarian settings, affecting community organization for multi-ethnic, hierarchical populations. Arcadia Mill (1830-1855) developed...

Industrial Transformations: Plantation Labour in Antigua after Emancipation (2013)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Genevieve Godbout.

The relation between Caribbean plantation economies and the modern ideology, particularly as regard the dominant narrative about the so-called Industrial Revolution, presents a conundrum to scholars of the British Empire. Plantation economies are often depicted as simultaneously hyper-modernity and anachronistically backwards: their reliance on slave labour is coupled with a highly specialized and systematized tasks; the minimal mechanization of their labour through the 1860s nevertheless...
