Fish or Flint? A Cursory Examination of a Method for Identifying Buried Lithic Artifacts Underwater (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Morgan F. Smith. Shawn Joy. Yong-Joe Kim.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Love That Dirty Water: Submerged Landscapes and Precontact Archaeology" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Recent research has demonstrated the potential for the remote identification of human altered lithic material in underwater contexts. The underlying principle of this method is the ability of low frequency sound waves to resonate within lithic materials of an ideal shape, making the material vibrate....

Fishy Business: Investigations At The Fairchild Fish House, Sheboygan County, Wisconsin (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Carrie A. Christman.

In 2015 and 2017, Commonwealth Heritage Group excavated the Fairichild Fish House, a mid- to late-nineteenth-century family homestead and fishery, within the boundaries of the large pre-contact site 47SB0173 in southeastern Wisconsin. The site is located on the western shore of Lake Michigan and protected by a large dune. The Fairchild family was part of the first Euro-American settlers in area. They practiced pound net fishing, a historic and lucrative commercial fishing technique in the...

Fitting Overseers Into The Plantation Picture: Spatial Analysis At The Oval Site (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Douglas W. Sanford. Andrew P. Wilkins.

Studies of plantation landscapes often focus either on the siting of mansions, quarters, and other structures across the plantation at a large scale by the owner, or attempts by the enslaved to exert control over the small-scale spaces of their own houses and yards. This paper adds to the consideration of how examining and comparing small-scale landscapes can contribute to a discussion of the creation and negotiation of intermingled racial and class-based boundaries within plantation contexts. ...

Five Feet High and Rising: Flood Impacts to Archaeological Sites and Response Efforts at Death Valley National Park (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Juanita Bonnifield. Wanda Raschkow. Erin Dempsey. Elizabeth A. Horton. Elaine Dorset.

On 18 October 2015, a severe storm system stalled out over Death Valley National Park resulting in a massive flood. Rushing flood waters heavily damaged roads, utilities, archaeological sites, and buildings. Grapevine Canyon, a major canyon in the northwest portion of the park and home to the historic Scotty’s Castle, was among the areas hit hardest. Post-flood condition assessments on thirty archaeological sites determined that within the canyon, pre-contact and historical archaeological sites...

Five Pounds Beef, Five Pounds Poi, and One Gallon Milk: Archaeological and Social Implications of Employee Meat Allowances on Hawaiʻi's Parker Ranch (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Benjamin T Barna. Lauren M U K Tam Sing.

During a recent contract project on Hawaiʻi Island’s Parker Ranch, ASM Affiliates recorded the ranch’s former slaughterhouse and interviewed several former ranch employees who had been involved in slaughtering and butchering the ranch's beef. Our discussions with them included descriptions of a beef allowance provided by Parker Ranch to its employees, a practice one of many ways the ranch took care of its own. Because the allowance was limited to specific cuts of meat, we analyized faunal...

Five Sites, Sixty Miles, and Nine Tons of Discovery: Spring 2016 Research On and In the Potomac River (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only P. Brendan Burke.

The Institute of Maritime History (IMH) and the Lighthouse Archaeological Maritime Program (LAMP) partnered for a research initiative in the Potomac River from May 12-20, 2016. The multi-phase project investigated several sites including the USS Tulip, the wreck of the Confederate schooner Favorite, the WWII U-boat Black Panther (U-1105), a 19th century centerboard sailing vessel, and a canal barge scuttled in 1862 with heavy ordnance once used to blockade Washington D.C. Additionally, survey...

Flat Ontologies, Identity and Space at Carolina Forts (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Charles R. Cobb.

English forts in the Carolina colony embody the ongoing struggle between the ambitions of imperial impositions and the aspirations of frontier autonomy. This tension is acutely reflected in the spatial organization of forts. Whereas colonial authorities sought to separate Europeans, Africans, and Native Americans through the formal segregation of the built environment, life on the frontier encouraged a fluidity in space and identity. The theoretical construct of flat ontologies can be used to...

Flats, Steamers, and Ironclads: The Impassable Confederate Defense of Mobile Bay (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jeff Enright. Joseph J Grinnan. Matthew Hanks. Ray Tubby. Nick Linville.

SEARCH, in partnership with Alabama Port Authority and other local, state, and federal agencies, conducted a maritime archaeological assessment of Mobile Bay, Alabama, including archival research and a marine remote sensing survey. As a result of this investigation, archaeologists documented numerous navigational obstructions placed in upper Mobile Bay during the American Civil War. These obstructions consist of shipwrecks, bricks, and wood pilings. This Confederate obstruction provides a unique...

Fleets of Cahuita: Recording and Interpreting the Costa Rica Fishing Boats (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Bryan S Rose.

Today Cahuitan fishermen often build and design their own fishing boats used for snorkel tours, lobster diving and artisanal fishing. These watercraft come in a variety of sizes, design and hull decorations. The builders have detailed knowledge about functions and features. Up until the early 1980s all these watercraft were log boat designs, evolving rapidly into modern fiberglass or dugouts covered in fiberglass. Distinctively designed oars are handmade with machetes and used to propel boats...

"Flesh Wounds": Migrant Injuries and the Archaeological Traces of Pain (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Olivia P. Waterhouse. Polina Hristova. Andrea Dantus. Marcela Dorfsman-Hopkin. Jason De León.

While crossing the desert clandestinely, migrants routinely experience a broad range of physical injuries including dehydration, hyperthermia, exhaustion, cuts, bruises, and blisters, all of which are conceptualized by federal law enforcement to act as forms of deterrence. Drawing on a combination of interviews with migrants and experimental research on hiking injuries, we highlight the many ways that the desert hurts people and the various coping strategies that border crossers have developed....

Flint Ballast, Rocky Connections With Europe (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Susan Langley. Raymond L Hayes. Laszlo Takacs. Marina Congedo.

On the East Coast of North America, nodules of flint often are encountered in ballast piles. Many archaeologists assert an ability to identify visually when these are of European origin. While, anecdotally, this appears to be generally true, most archaeologists cannot articulate the specific factors they employ in making the identification. This project, which builds on Barbara Luedtke’s 1992 work, examines geological terminology, tests the visual identification assertion, and employs XRF and...
