A Technological Analysis of Daub from a Middle Mississippian Period Site in Bartow County, Georgia (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Joey Case. Terry Powis.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Daub is clay used in the construction of wattle-and-daub houses that acts both as insulation and protection from the weather. Less emphasized compared to other materials recovered in the archaeological record, daub played an important part in the waterproofing of dwellings in the Mississippian period. Being made of clay, daub is not preserved unless it was...

Technological Knowledge And Migrations Of Ancestral Pueblo Communities Of Practice In The Northern Rio Grande Of New Mexico (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Mark R Agostini.

This paper seeks to evaluate how successive migrations of ancestral Pueblo people from pre-hispanic villages (AD 1250 – 1400) on the Pajarito Plateau of New Mexico restructured potter communities of practice and community identities as ethnic groups joined their Tewa-speaking relatives at the earliest historic period Rio Grande settlements. Oral histories from descendant communities dating to the 19th and early 20th centuries recount how remaining members of these villages resettled to the south...

Technological Studies of Prehistoric Pottery from Alabama: Physical Properties and Vessel Function (1984)

Technological Toolkit: Using XRF Analysis to better understand 19th Century Iron Making and its Implications for the Labor Force (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Joseph E. Clemens.

The use of X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) as a tool for analyzing archaeological materials is becoming increasingly common. Recently, various types of iron ore and iron products produced at furnaces in Maryland and Pennsylvania in the 19th century were analyzed using XRF measurements. These measurements were employed to create a representational graph of the elemental composition of iron artifacts in order to identify a connection between the source material and the iron product. Documentary...

Technology and Empire: A Comparative Analysis of British and Dutch Maritime Technologies during the Napoleonic Era (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Ivor R. Mollema.

A study of the Dutch vessel Bato (1806) and British vessel Brunswick (1805) wrecked in Simons Bay, South Africa presents a unique opportunity to compare and analyse the maritime shipbuilding technologies available to these two powerful seafaring nations during the Napoleonic Era (1792-1815). Preliminary research of the material culture record yields data about British and Dutch access and utilization of specific shipbuilding timbers, iron knees, metal sheathings, and variety of fastenings....

Technology As A Tool For Public Experience And Interpretation (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Linda Stine. Roy Stine.

Archaeologists and geographers from the interdisciplinary archaeology program, University of North Carolina Greensboro (UNCG), engage the public in local archaeological projects through multiple methods. Early projects included use of hand-held GPS tied to site information in Belize, and a voiced, animated battle overlay on a modern map. UNCG investigators offer visitors a chance to see how to collect remote sensed data (e.g., GPR, magnetometer, Lidar), I-Pad 3D imaging, and laboratory...

Technology for Underwater Heritage: Mapping World War II Sites in the Pacific (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Peter W. Kelsey.

The National Park Service is investigating large scale yet highly accurate distributed models that could assist preservation activities across the Pacific. Recent innovations regarding reality capture and computer modeling technologies specific to the marine environment, including LiDAR, SONAR and photogrammetry are providing value to heritage projects in the Pacific. The first comprehensive survey of the USS Arizona ship and memorial at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii since 1984 began in November of 2013...

Telepresence-Enabled Archaeological Exploration of ex-USS Independence (CVL22) in the Gulf of the Farallones (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only James P. Delgado. Michael L. Brennan.

In 2016, a joint NOAA/Ocean Exploration Trust mission in the E/V nautilus conducted a series of telepresence-enabled dives on the carrier Independence, a World War II veteran used as a target ship in the 1946 atomic weapons tests at Bikini Atoll. Subsequently used as a floating laboratory and a post-nuclear attack training platform by the US Navy, Independence rests in 822 meters of water where it was scuttled in 1951. The dives, the first to survey and document the wreck, were shared with a...

"Tell Me What You Eat and I’ll Tell You Who You Are": Food and the Challenge of Indian Identity in Late 18th and Early 19th Century California (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Lindsay A Kiel.

The neophyte housing complex of Mission Santa Clara de Asís, one of the five Spanish missions established in the San Francisco Bay Area during the California Mission Period, was excavated between 2012 and 2014. Excavations unearthed numerous refuse pits that contained a variety of artifacts including large numbers of faunal remains. Feature 157, the focus of this research, was made up of three distinct multi-use pit sub-features that contained the remains of a variety of fauna. The assemblage...

Telling Multiple Jamestown Stories: Using Technology to Engage Guests with James Fort, 1619, and Beyond (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Lisa E. Fischer.

Technology opens up new opportunities for multi-layered interpretations of historical and archaeological sites. Applications, such as interactive websites maps, smartphone apps, 3D models, and virtual reality, can enable visitors to explore different narratives and see how sites changed over time in ways that are more challenging within a static museum landscape. Jamestown Rediscovery is exploring different technological approaches—both online and on-site—for engaging guests not only with the...

Tennessee Face Jugs: An Evolving Tradition (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Stephen T. Rogers.

The existence of stoneware face jugs as part of a Southern pottery tradition is well established. Recent scholarship and archaeological testing in Edgefield, South Carolina has sought to establish a chronology for their origins and develop a deeper understanding of their symbolic significance. As conditions surrounding the manufacturing of these face jugs changed through time, their function or meaning also changed. This paper will discuss the historic context of these vessels, explore their...

Terminal Pleistocene Climate Change and Shifting Paleoindian Landscapes in North Florida (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jessi Halligan. Michael Waters.

Much of the Southeastern United States suffers from poor organic preservation. Direct dating of archaeological components is often impossible, and intact paleoenvironmental sequences are very rare, especially for the terminal Pleistocene. Inundated terrestrial sites in the Aucilla River of northwestern Florida can overcome both of these difficulties, with archaeological materials buried within directly-dateable intact strata containing well-preserved paleobotanical and faunal remains. Strata...
