Refining The Hermitage Chronologies (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Cooper Cooper. Jillian E Galle. Lynsey A. Bates. Elizabeth Bollwerk.

    Previous chronologies of site occupations at The Hermitage were based largely on historical documentation combined with observed architectural changes across the landscape. Here we use correspondence analysis of ceramic ware-type frequencies to corroborate and refine earlier chronologies developed by Smith and McKee. DAACS data from ten domestic sites of slavery at the plantation, with occupations spanning from the first decade of the nineteenth century to the 1920’s, allow us to develop...


"Refining" Coarse Earthenware Types from the British Coal Measures (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Lindsay Bloch.

Ceramics analysis, particularly the identification and dating of ware types on historic sites, structures our inferences in critical ways. However, our ware types and production date ranges are sometimes built on incomplete information about the origins of these wares. The Coal Measures region of Great Britain, encompassing production centers such as Staffordshire and the major port of Liverpool, was the source for a variety of earthenware products, both coarse and refined during the colonial...


Refit for Active Service: Merchant Vessel Conversion and the "Golden Age" of American Whaling (2020)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Luke LeBras.

This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The period following the War of 1812 saw ship owners, builders, and investors rush to reestablish the damaged United States whale fishery and “cash-in” on the ever-increasing demand for its products. While New England’s shipyards constructed some of the ships needed to rebuild the damaged fleet, converting merchant vessels to whaleships was generally preferred as conversion was a...

Reflections in the Hermitage Spring, or How a Summer in Tennessee Drove me Underwater (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Ben L. Ford.

The Hermitage Archaeology internship program was a significant and formative experience for many young archaeologists. My career still reverberates with the summer I spent in the program. Like many of the interns, I learned how to do solid scientific archaeology where well-conceived, humanistic questions are addressed with rigorous methods. I also learned that some things are more important than science and that I had no natural talent for Public Archaeology. Much of my career since has been...


Reflections on Community Engagement & Digital Approaches: The Effects & Impacts of Different Tools (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Lynne Goldstein.

Archaeologists generally believe that public engagement is important and useful, and most believe they are doing so. Many have seen relative ease of use of the web as a panacea for such work. Having been involved in archaeological research, outreach and community engagement for over 40 years, I have experience with a variety of methods. As technology changes and we try to embrace new techniques, however, it is rare that we reconsider our overall engagement strategy, or create a specific plan....


A Reflexive Paradigm: Improving Understanding of our Shared Human Heritage (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Brandi Carrier. Dave Ball.

BOEM’s historic preservation program is based in stewardship, science-informed decisions, and scientific integrity. To achieve these values, we utilize best practices of inclusiveness in our community science programs. By actively seeking varied ways of knowing, e.g, traditional knowledge and landscape approaches, we allow for concurrent historic contexts to be defined and understood at various scales. Considering our jurisdiction covers 1.76 billion acres of submerged federal lands, these...


Reform and Archaeology (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Megan Springate.

There is more to the concept of reform than just change. The term suggests improvement and betterment -- but by whose definition and direction? Serving as an introduction to the Archaeology of Reform/Archaeology as Reform session, this paper explores the meaning and nature of reform and how archaeology can both illuminate and facilitate it.


Reforming the Collection: Documentation, Fieldwork, and the NAGPRA Process at SUNY Oswego (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Douglas Pippin.

The discovery of human remains in the SUNY Oswego archaeological collection in 2005 led to a ten year inventory process to fulfill our responsibilities under NAGPRA. From the beginning, our fundamental difficulty was the overall lack of documentation and information about the materials comprising the Oswego collection. Difficulties with the existing catalog and storage condition of the materials heightened the difficulties of inventory process. Many of the sites represented in our collection...

"A Refuge of Cure or of Care": The Sensory Dimensions of Confinement at the Worcester State Hospital for the Insane (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Madeline Bourque Kearin.

American asylum medicine, the precursor to psychiatry, was predicated on an environmental approach to the treatment of mental illness: specifically, upon the creation of a curative environment that would rigorously organize patients’ exposure to sensory stimuli. This paper combines documentary records, evidence from surviving architecture, and geospatial renderings of the landscape in order to access those stimuli – consisting of the sights, sounds, smells, and tactile qualities of the natural...

Refugees, Resettlement, Revealed History and Commemoration of the Tutelo Diaspora (2020)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Sherene Baugher.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Monuments, Memory, and Commemoration" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The history of displaced people is rarely commemorated and often part of a “silenced” history. In the late 1600s, the Tutelo Indians were driven out of their homelands in Virginia by Europeans. Their diaspora involved moving to North Carolina, then to another part of Virginia, and to refugee settlements in Pennsylvania. In 1753, the...

A Regional Approach to Submerged Naval Aircraft Studies (2020)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Agustin J Ortiz.

This is a poster submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Over the past few years Navy's approach to accounting for Navy aircraft losses has changed in order to better manage those resources. Where in the past the study and accounting of aircraft wrecks has been dealt with largely on a case by case bases, NHHC UA has now taken a more active role by conducting its own regional remote sensing surveys (the Regional Approach). Survey areas are...


Regional Maritime Networks of Bronze Age Cyprus and the Eastern Mediterranean (2020)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Emily K. DiBiase.

This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The Bronze Age in the Mediterranean has been studied extensively in the past by a variety of researchers, including both historians and archaeologists, simply because it is the time during which “civilization” first develops. Maritime trade was a key element in the development of civilization. This project identifies the regional trade networks operating in the Bronze Age Eastern...

Regional Settlement Patterns in the Colonization of Historical Landscapes: the New Acadia Project Archaeological Survey (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Mark A Rees. Donald Bourgeois.

In 1765 more than 200 Acadian refugees settled on the natural levees along the Bayou Teche in south Louisiana. Two centuries later, the descendants of the Acadians were recognized as having created a homeland known as Acadiana. The Fausse Pointe region where the Acadian families initially settled, however, presented an unfamiliar and difficult environment in an already inhabited landscape. The New Acadia Project has systematically surveyed portions of a ten mile segment of the Teche Ridge in...


Regional Shipwreck Surveys – The Mainstay of UASBC (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jacques F. Marc.

One of the challenges for avocational U/W archaeology groups is finding an appropriate role in the professional archaeology community. The Underwater Archaeological Society of British Columbia (UASBC) tried its hand at many underwater archaeology activities early in its history including underwater excavations, which was exciting but proved too costly and time consuming.  The UASBC recognized early on, that in order to manage the submerged cultural resources of BC, the provincial Archaeology...


Regional Synthesis and Best Practices for the Application of Geophysics to Archaeological Projects in the Middle Atlantic Region. (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only William Chadwick. Elisabeth A. LaVigne.

As geophysical surveys become more common and a standard procedure on archeological projects within the United States, the question raised is whether or not the methods and systems being used are appropriate for the questions being asked by the principal investigators. Therefore, a compilation of geophysical methods used during archaeological investigations and their results in the Middle Atlantic region, primarily those used on transportation projects, was conducted as part of the Route 301...


Regional Variation Among Ancestral Pueblo Water Jars: A Geometric Morphometric Approach (2021)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Kathleen Barvick.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Pottery in the US Southwest has long been studied for the insights it provides into social identity. Differences in construction may suggest differences in conceptions of the correct way to make a ceramic vessel; when studied through the lens of practice theory, variation in form speaks to alternate communities of practice and may show boundaries in...

Regionality and Relations to the State in the Andagua Valley, Southern Peruvian Andes (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Alexander Menaker.

This is an abstract from the "Itinerant Bureaucrats and Empire" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In the mid-18th century, spurred by recent Bourbon reforms and claiming years of unpaid tribute, Spanish colonial officials journeyed to the town of Andagua in the high Southern Peruvian Andes. Yet upon arriving they encountered firm resistance to their regional colonial authority that coalesced around the leaders of reputed ancestor cults, nearly...
