Underwater archaeology tends to be particularistic focusing on the human activities associated with an event, however; human behavior and its resultant material remains exist on a physical and cultural landscape and cannot be separated from it. Studying known archaeological sites within the landscape reveals patterns of human behavior that can only be identified within that context. The natural environment constrains and informs human behavior and plays an important role in the development of...

Since 2007, the Underwater Archaeology Program at Northwestern Collage (USA) has been surveying submerged cultural resources both in America and Europe by utilizing sector scanning sonar equipment developed by Kongsberg-Mesotech (Vancouver, Canada). The results of these surveys have been stunning. This paper will explore the catalog of archaeological sites surveyed, methodology of deployment and how this new equipment can contribute to the development of rapid, highly detailed underwater...

Unlike primary sources, archaeological assemblages can be used to estimate per-capita discard rates that reveal the flow of goods through time and the complexity of purchasing patterns on a range of sites.  In addition to filling these gaps, the archaeological record provides data on individuals and groups not represented in probate inventories and wills, two document types most often used to track consumer habits on both the small and large scale.  Unfortunately measuring and comparing...

The Tremé is often referred to as America’s oldest African-American neighborhood and has been the site of significant social, cultural, and political developments in New Orleans for the past two hundred years. From the colonial period onward, the neighborhood fostered the growth of the city’s Creole population and displayed a distinct cultural and demographic makeup unmatched in other parts of the American South. In recent decades, scholars have considered the Tremé as a rich site of cultural...

This paper will focus on the interpretation a large flotation-derived floral dataset produced from seven archaeological mitigations accomplished under the Route 301 Mega Project.   A diverse range of features (wells, cellars, smokehouses, root cellars, middens, kilns, slave quarters) were sampled from a variety of domestic, agricultural and small-scale industrial contexts that comprised the social landscape of rural Delaware during the 1700’s and 1800’s.  The collective floral data make a...

Archaeologists and historians have long used Captain John Smith’s 1612 map of the Chesapeake to interpret the native landscape at contact. From this map and the narrative of his 1608 voyages, inferences have been made about territories, population size, and settlement locations. Recent research mapping Indigenous Cultural Landscapes (ICLs) for the National Park Service has begun to re-envision the study of Smith’s map and highlight the limitations of its efficacy in drawing broad conclusions...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "New Research on the “Old Colony”: Recent Approaches to Plymouth Archaeology" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Since 2013, archaeologists from UMass Boston have been engaged in a collaborative research program focused on 17th-century Plymouth (MA) colony. This project has combined discovery of new sites in downtown Plymouth with a reexamination of existing collections curated from earlier excavations....

This is an abstract from the "The Public and Our Communities: How to Present Engaging Archaeology" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The City of New Smyrna Beach, Florida celebrated its 250th anniversary in June 2018. New Smyrna contains archaeological evidence that traverses the late 18th-century British colonial era and spans into the 20th-century. The community, however, overwhelmingly undervalues and underappreciates this heritage. In order to...

Ash wood fragment with distal groove and "wedge-shaped" hook to engage arrow nock, narrow, rigid, proximal end missing, decorative notches on bottom. Cane arrow shaft 3/8" diam, end narrowed by sinew wrap, flared for nock, 3 feather traces. Experimental atlatl with commercial arrows got similar range but less accuracy than bow.

This paper will explore the impact of colonization on family identity and heritage through the analysis of mortuary material culture in the United Kingdom and the Caribbean from the 17th to 20th centuries. Although colonial families are traditionally represented as static, immobile and passive, a more systematic and dynamic understanding of this period of unprecedented movement and interaction can be accessed through alternative sources of history. Cemeteries provide such an opportunity because...

The New York City Archaeology Repository houses public archaeological collections from the city, revealing the material culture of the city’s history. Using a case study, this poster explores expanding access to the archaeological data of New York City.  In 1991 and 1992, Professor H. Arthur Bankoff, Chair of the Anthropology and Archaeology Departments at Brooklyn College, led excavations of Van Cortlandt Park. The toothbrushes, chamber pots and medicine bottles recovered from the mansion and...
