Monuments And Memories: Irish, Polish, And Haudenosaunee Engagements With The Heritage Narratives Of The Revolutionary War (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Brant W Venables.

Examining memorializations of the Revolutionary War is fruitful in tracing how important events are crafted into founding national mythologies.  However, such analyses underplay the presence of ethnic groups that utilized monuments and commemorative ceremonies to gain wider acceptance in American society or challenge the dominant heritage narratives. This paper examines Saratoga monuments dedicated to Polish-American Engineer Thaddeus Kościuszko, the Saratoga monument to Irish-American Timothy...


Monuments in Danger? Study Done in the Jewish Cemetery of Victoria, British Columbia (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Emily Badger. Ryan Schucroft.

Monument preservation is an important part of remembering loved ones. Because of the wide variety of stones and manufacturing techniques, there are many factors that may contribute to monument decay. Each factor should be assessed and measures taken to prevent further degradation. For this project, we attempted to determine what factors could be at play when looking at headstone deterioration at the Emanu-el Jewish cemetery. We considered four hypotheses: first, monuments under tree cover would...


Moonshining Women and the Informal Economy in Two Prohibition Era Montana Towns (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Kelli Casias.

One unintended consequence of the Prohibition Era in the U.S. was an unorganized but national collective social resistance movement based in individual civil disobedience.  Recent research into the town of Anaconda, Montana during alcohol prohibition has revealed that men and women participated in moonshining activities. Comparison of male and female offenders in Anaconda indicated that the informal economy in which alcohol resided, was formalized by city officials as a legitimate economic...

"A More Difficult Problem:" Adapting the National Park Service Concept of Significance to Archaeological Sites (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only John H. Sprinkle.

First published in 1969, the National Register criteria were based on a thirty year track record of administrative review and historical evaluation by a National Park Service program whose mandate was to deter, deflect, and discourage the acquisition of new parks proposed for addition to a system already burdened with maintenance backlog issues. But the goal of the "new preservation" was never to acquire and interpret a comprehensive panorama of the American experiment; its mission was to ensure...

In the winter of 1503-04, Christopher Columbus was marooned and provisioned by the Taino village of Maima located on the north central coast of Jamaica.  What we know about the Taino of this village remains what was written in the accounts of those marooned Spanish explorers.  After the year spent in this village the Spanish returned to the area and founded the settlement of Sevilla la Nueva, resulting in the people of Maima becoming victims of forced labor, conversion and disease.  What is...

More Than Just Compliance: Practicing NAGPRA at The Alabama Department of Archives and History. (2020)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Kellie J. Bowers.

This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In 2017, the Alabama Department of Archives and History (ADAH) received NAGPRA inquiries regarding its archaeological collection. This prompted a re-examination of the organization’s 1990s response to NAGPRA, and led to the conclusion that the ADAH was unintentionally incompliant with the law. Staff began development of a multiphase project not only to become compliant, but also to...


More than the Fort: Recognizing Expanded Significance of the Fort Snelling National Register and National Historic Landmark Districts (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only David J Mather.

Fort Snelling, built in 1820 at the confluence of the Minnesota and Mississippi rivers, was the first National Historic Landmark designated in Minnesota, and among the state’s first listings in the National Register. The site of the frontier fort was the focus of a grassroots historic preservation effort in the 1950s, leading to large-scale archaeological excavation and reconstruction. Historical designations and programming have focused on the fort’s military history, extending from the...


Morphological and Chemical Signatures of Chenopodium: Application of Optical and Electron Microscopy to Seeds from Experimental and Archaeological Contexts (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Renee Bonzani. Michael Steenken. Jon Endonino. Michael Detisch. Hugo Reyes-Centeno.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Humans are considered natural seed dispersing agents through the social acts of seed saving and seed sowing. The intentional and unintentional results of these human-plant relationships can lead to the development of genotypic and phenotypic traits that are beneficial to both the plant and to their human influencers. Anthropogenic seed dispersal of wild...

Morphology and Mineralogy of Consolidated Iron Corrosion Products From Historic Shipwrecks in the Gulf of Mexico (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Brenda J. Little. Tammie L. Gerke. Jason S. Lee. Richard I. Ray.

Consolidated iron corrosion products (rusticles, tubercles and flakes) were collected from historic shipwrecks in the Gulf of Mexico before (2004) and after (2014) the Deepwater Horizon oil spill (2010). In all cases the iron corrosion products were stratified. Goethite and lepidocrocite were identified by powder X-ray diffraction in samples before and after the spill. The internal structure of samples collected before the spill has been examined in detail with environmental scanning electron...

However, a robust quantitative comparison of these implements has, to our knowledge, never been conducted....


The Morrisville Historic District: Developing a Preservation Plan for the National Guard (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Nicholas Glass. Jessica Helms.

The "Most Cherished Dream": Analysis of Early 20th century Filipino Community Spaces and Identity in Annapolis, Maryland (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Kathrina J. Aben.
