Early Norwegian Settlers on the Texas Frontier: Uncovering the Home of Cleng Peerson (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Becky Shelton. Bryan Jameson.

In 2014, a dedicated landowner began the search for the home of Cleng Peerson, founding father of Texas’s earliest Norwegian settlement. Subsequently, members of the Texas Archeological Stewardship Network conducted extensive archival research and field investigations. They verified that Peerson had given 160 acres to Ovee Colwick in 1860 in exchange for a place to live his final years, and the landowner owned the property that contained the Colwick homestead. Excavations revealed remains of a...

The Early Spread of Peaches (Prunus persica) across Spanish La Florida and their Importance for Modeling Archaeological Chronologies and Indigenous Networks (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jacob Holland-Lulewicz. RaeLynn Butler. Turner Hunt. Amanda Roberts Thompson. Victor Thompson.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Peaches were ubiquitous across eastern North America by the mid-seventeenth century, less than 100 years after the founding of St. Augustine in 1565, the earliest possible cultivation date for peaches in what is today the United States. As such, preserved or charred peach pits at archaeological sites, each with a built-in terminus post quem of c. 1565,...

An Early Twentieth Century Ceramic Assemblage from a Burned House in Northern Georgia (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Patrick H. Garrow.

Most of the sites we investigate have architectural remains, middens, and features. Artifacts collected from middens often span the history of the site. Features may represent frozen moments in time, but rarely reflect the total material culture of the household and contain artifacts that have been removed from their household and discarded. The site discussed in this paper contains a residence that was destroyed by fire during the second decade of the twentieth century. The house was occupied...

Early- and Middle-Stage Fluted Stone Tool Bases: Further Evidence they are not Diagnostic of Clovis (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only James Norris. Metin Eren.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Goodson Rockshelter in Oklahoma has provided strong chronometric evidence that early- and middle-stage fluted stone tool bases found there date to the Late Archaic. These results further indicate that such specimens are not necessarily diagnostic of the Clovis culture. Here, we present additional evidence that early- and middle-stage fluted bases do not...

East Meets West: Indigenous Use of Indo-Pacific Cowries on the Great Plains (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Barbara Heath.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Beyond Ornamentation: New Approaches to Adornment and Colonialism" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Indo-Pacific cowrie shells entered North America in the late 17th and early 18th centuries as part of colonial expansion reliant on a global network of trade that commoditized both people and animals. Over the course of the 19th century, Indigenous people of the mid-west and Great Plains incorporated these...

East Tennessee Earthenware: Continuing The Tradition (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Stephen T. Rogers.

The early production of earthenware pottery was concentrated in upper East Tennessee where thirty-three of the forty-five recorded earthenware pottery sites were located. Centered in Greene County, earthenware production began about 1800s and lasted in several isolated areas until the 1890s. This continuation of older ceramic traditions previously established in Pennsylvania, Virginia, and especially North Carolina demonstrate the diffusion and evolution of regional variation as potters...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Ana C. Opishinski.

This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. During the early colonial period of New Mexico (1598-1680) secular and religious governing bodies developed simultaneously to manage the colony, the colonists, and the indigenous people already residing in the region. One of the resulting differences between secular and religious households was in labor rules and structure, especially regarding the Pueblos and other conscripted or...
