On the Offensive: The Small Arms and Artillery of Monterrey Shipwreck A (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Amy Borgens. Christopher Horrell. James Delgado. Jack Irion. Frederick H Hanselmann. Frank Cantelas. Michael L Brennan.

Sailing on the open seas could often be treacherous and the Gulf of Mexico was a theater for such activities with its history of privateering and naval actions. Vessels at that time could be armed both offensively and defensively, but could also be transporting such military cargoes to aid in the many conflicts abounding during the formative early decades of the 19th century. ROV investigations of Monterrey A discovered two collections of small arms and six cannon within the hull remains. Video...

On the Periphery of the New World: The Beeswax Wreck Project (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Christopher T Dewey.

This paper reviews the search for the suspected wreck of a Spanish Manila galleon off the Oregon Coast that sank near the end of the seventeenth century. Included are summaries of the 2006-2009 terrestrial surveys and the 2013-2014 diving operations. The sometimes-conflicting historical record is summarized and compared to the results of four terrestrial and two underwater field seasons. The result is an informed estimate of the wreck’s location.

On The Rim Of The Southern Cause: Quaker Potters In The Confederate Capital (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Oliver Mueller-Heubach.

In Richmond, capital of the Confederacy, northerners, free blacks, and Quakers operating on the periphery of the Southern cause challenged its basic foundations. Here, overlooking the James River and its busy docks at ‘Rocketts,’ stood the stoneware pottery of the Quaker Parr family. Already prominent potters in Baltimore, the Parrs came to Richmond a decade earlier and now partnered with a local auctioneer of Quaker extraction. In trying to keep their operation afloat, the Parrs came up against...

On the Road and in Place: A Material History of the New Buffalo Commune, New Mexico (2021)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Julia Morris.

This is an abstract from the "Northern Rio Grande History: Routes and Roots" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The New Buffalo Commune of northern New Mexico was a countercultural mecca during the late 1960s and 1970s, drawing in young folks from around the country who sought escape from the industrialism, capitalism, and militarism of mid-twentieth-century American society. It was a community of those who were looking to return to lost relationships...

On the Verge: A Pocket Watch from Queen Anne’s Revenge (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Karen E. Martindale.

Beginning with the development of the verge escapement in the 13th century, there was a trend in mechanical timepieces to make them both more accurate and more portable. The most accurate timepiece of the 18th century, the marine chronometer, could be used to determine longitude at sea, while up to this point pocket watches were used as displays of wealth and for tasks such as keeping track of watch shifts. Pocket watches were not uncommon on board ships during the 17th and 18th centuries, but...

On the Waterfront: Archaeological Investigations along the Delaware River in Philadelphia (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Douglas B. Mooney.

Since the late 1960s multiple archaeological investigations have been conducted along the city’s Delaware River waterfront – the area that forms the heart of Philadelphia’s historical social and economic center. These excavations have succeeded in documenting sites associated with the growth and development of the city’s port facilities, the foundation of the early ship building industry, 19th and 20th century industrial expansion, as well as the working class people and families who made the...

On Writing The Past Backwards (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Matthew Johnson.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Medieval to Modern Transitions and Historical Archaeology" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Thinking about medieval and modern means involves working backwards – from New World settlement to European and African antecedents and origins. Such a project raises a series of issues and challenges. First, while there is extensive ldiscussion of how time is socially embedded, there is little on the reversal of...

"The Once Great Plantation is Now a Wilderness" Investigations at the Josiah Henson SIte, Montgomery County, Maryland (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only cassandra michaud.

In 2006, Montgomery Parks purchased a house and one acre of land in suburban Maryland, beginning historical and archaeological investigations into the site and its association with Josiah Henson, a Reverend, Underground Railroad conductor, and escaped slave. Known to local residents for its relationship to Harriett Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin, the 19th century abolitionist novel, the site was the subject of much myth about the existing structures and their link to Henson, who was enslaved...

One Artifact, Multiple Interpretations: Postcolonial Archaeology and the Analysis of Chinese Coins (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Edward Gonzalez-Tennant.

This paper examines how a focus on "culturally bounded" groups restricts historical archaeology’s exploration of oppressive social practices such as slavery, racism, and inequality. Competing interpretations of a single class of material culture – in this case, Chinese coins – illuminates how bias enters archaeological interpretations in subtle ways. Chinese coins, also known as wen have been recovered from historic sites on nearly every continent. The author focuses on the interpretation of...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Keilani Hernandez. Rachel Hines.

This is a poster submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Archaeology education programs should address the needs of both students and teachers, therefore the programs should be tailored to specific age groups.

The Ongoing Battle of Ewa Plain, Hawaii: Resurrection of a Lost Battlefield (2016)

Home to the former Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS), Ewa, and several plantation villages, this area was subjected to waves of strafing by Japanese aircraft. Working closely with local preservationists, a National Register nomination was prepared for the battlefield including a somewhat novel KOCOA...

The Ongoing Quest for the Wreck of the Griffon (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Dean L Anderson.

In September of 1679, LaSalle’s vessel the Griffon went missing with a cargo of furs after setting sail from Green Bay in western Lake Michigan. The wreck of the Griffon is perhaps the most sought-after shipwreck in the Great Lakes. Many claims of discovery have been made over the years. A recent claim has received a great deal of media attention, but archaeological evidence does not support the contention that the wreck has been found.
