Memories that Haunt: Reconciling with the ghosts of the American Indian School System (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Lindsay Montgomery.

During the nineteenth century, the United States had an "Indian Problem".  The problem was that Indians continued to exist despite rigorous efforts to erase them from the landscape through disease, violence, and segregation. To solve this conundrum, the U.S. government staffed and funded the Indian School System; a system comprised of residential and non-residential schools in which savage Indians were transformed into obedient citizens. Over the past several decades, archaeologists and...

Memory and Heritage Before and After 1991: A Case Study from the Solovetsky Islands (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Margaret A Comer.

            As recent battles over the fate and meaning of the gulag site in Perm have shown, gulag heritage in Russia remains highly dissonant.  Questions of how to manage and interpret former gulags have become increasingly politically charged in the last few years, following a brief thaw during the perestroika and glasnost periods.  The island site of the infamous Solvetsky Gulag offers an illuminating case study of the struggles of stakeholders – monks, other island residents, tourism...

Men of Good Timber: An Archaeological Investigation of Labor in Michigan's Upper Peninsula (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Aaron Howe.

  Questions of labor and everyday life have been commonplace in archaeology.  At Coalwood, a cordwood camp that operated from 1901-1912 in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, these issues become especially important since labor experienced a dramatic transformation when the camp shifted from housing a large number of male laborers to being organized by individual households.  In this paper I use archaeological evidence to examine the social relations these laborers were engaged in that produced and...

Metal Detecting as a Preliminary Survey Tool in Archaeology (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Sarah A. Grady. Laura Cripps.

Smithsonian citizen scientists have surveyed several 18th and 19th century sites using conventional archaeological methods along with a metal detector as a non-invasive way to explore site structure. Metal detecting is a cost-effective, preliminary method of survey and can be used to aid in identifying and delineating site locations. This paper will discuss our survey findings in relation to a 17th century site, where subsequent magnetometer survey and excavations confirmed our initial...
