The Search for Yarrow Mamout in Georgetown: A Preliminary Assessment (2016)
What happens when a concerned citizen notifies the D.C. City Archaeologist that a possible historic human burial is threated with disturbance on privately owned property? This paper outlines the archaeological survey conducted between June and August 2015 to answer this question. The possible human burial is that of Yarrow Mamout, a Muslim slave who purchased property at what is now 3324 Dent Place, NW, in Upper Georgetown in 1800 and lived there until his death in 1823. Mamout became famous...
Searching for Clarity (and Lead) in Colorless Colonial Glass Tableware from Southern Maryland and Virginia's Northern Neck (2018)
In the late 17th century, most glass tableware used in England was imported soda-based glass until a domestically produced potash-lead based glass became available in the late 1670s. This English lead glass would go on to dominate glass tableware of the 18th century. When did colonists in Southern Maryland and the Northern Neck of Virginia begin importing and using this English lead glass? Determining when lead glass began appearing required diving into collections of glass at several collection...
Searching for Guerrero in Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary (2018)
Spurred by Guerrero’s tragic end and its cultural heritage value, researchers have searched for archaeological remains in Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary (FKNMS) and John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park that bring the story to life. Magnetic and diver surveys by the Mel Fisher Maritime Heritage Society, RPM Nautical Foundation, FKNMS Submerged Resource Inventory Team and Diving With a Purpose (DWP) investigated shallow reefs surrounding Turtle Harbor and located numerous shipwrecks and...
Searching for Late Pleistocene Deposits: Recent Geoarchaeological Investigations of the Aucilla River, Florida (2023)
This is an abstract from the "Liquid Landscapes: Recent Developments in Submerged Landscape Archaeology" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Within the mid-channel sinkholes of the modern Aucilla River in northwest Florida, dozens of late Pleistocene archaeological sites lie inundated in both surficial and buried contexts. Despite four decades of dedicated research, however, only three of these sites have been securely dated with geoarchaeological...
Searching for Old St. Andrews: A Program for Community Archaeology in Panama City, Florida (2024)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This poster exhibits current research by Gulf Coast State College in examining sites associated with the “lost” town of St. Andrews, which was initially established in 1827 on St. Andrews Bay in northwestern Florida. Believed to be abandoned in 1863 during the American Civil War, archaeological investigations at properties associated with the town’s early...
Searching for Proud Shoes: The Pauli Murray Project and the Place of Historical Archaeology within a Social Justice Organization (2017)
The authors organized an excavation on the site of the Pauli Murray Family Home in 2016. Murray was a fierce advocate for equal rights, especially on behalf of African Americans and women. In her autobiographies she traces her refusal to follow the scripts available to "Negro" "women" in the early 20th century to her upbringing among extended family in Durham, North Carolina. The session abstract urges contributors to consider how historical archaeology can inform contemporary strategies for...
Searching For Slavery In Saint Domingue. (2017)
Saint Domingue was the most important European colony of the Caribbean region, producing vast amounts of wealth through the labor of enslaved Africans and their descendants. It was also the setting of the only large scale slave revolt that succeeded in overturning the slavery system. In spite of this importance to Atlantic studies, African Diaspora studies, and historical archaeology, very little substantive research has been conducted on sites associated with the dwelling places of the...
Searching For Spanish Footprints: Recent Geophysical Prospection On Sapelo Island, Georgia (2017)
The Sapelo Island Mission Period Archaeological Project (SIMPAP) has been conducting research on Sapelo Island, Georgia since 2003 in search of the Mission San Joseph de Sapala. Previous test excavations have produced potential architectural features and Spanish artifacts, while previous geophysical feasibility surveys hint at the presence of unique anomalies warranting further investigation. During the summer of 2016, University of Kentucky personnel conducted new ground-penetrating radar and...
Searching For the Foundation: An Overview of a Historic Industrial Complex in Pensacola, Florida (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Pensacola, Florida has long served as a key port city for exporting commodities such as lumber and bricks throughout the south. As such, many of the mills, timber/lumber yards, brickworks, and metal yards located throughout West Florida have been left unidentified in terms of production. Site 8ES940, a small-scale industrial area which sits on the bank of Thompson’s Bayou on...
Searching for the Lewis and Clark Expedition at Ft. Kaskaskia, Illinois (2018)
Lewis and Clark recruited 11 soldiers from the small US Army outpost of Ft. Kaskaskia (1802-1807), Illinois, in 1803 to join their expedition to explore the American west. This event traditionally has been identified as having occurred at a 1750s French fort of the same name. 2017 SIU summer field school investigations within the fort walls successfully located the remains of the French occupation but found no evidence of use by the US Army. Archaeological investigation of a nearby hilltop,...
Searching for the Missing Drum: The Evidence for the Presence and Ceremonial Importance of Ceramic Vessel Drums in the Prehistoric Southeastern United States (2021)
This is an abstract from the "Music Archaeology's Paradox: Contextual Dependency and Contextual Expressivity" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Early historical accounts suggest that drums played an important role in the ceremonial life of the prehistoric southeastern United States. However, because they were made in whole or in part of ephemeral materials, drums are virtually invisible in the archaeological record. Interestingly, historical records,...
Searching for the Plaza Vieja: historical archaeology, ground-penetrating radar, and community outreach in Belen, New Mexico (2015)
This poster describes a collaborative project between archaeologists, historians, and community members to identify the location of the original plaza and associated structures in Belen, New Mexico. Established in 1741, Belen's initial Spanish settlement was near the Rio Grande, but as the city grew, development shifted to the west. By the late 19th century, the original plaza, or Plaza Vieja, and associated Catholic church were abandoned. Although the Plaza Vieja was occasionally referenced in...
Searching for the Submerged: Five Decades of Research Related to Drowned Prehistoric Sites in the Gulf of Mexico and Coastal Louisiana (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Submerged Paleolandscape Investigations in the Gulf of Mexico" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Since 1975, personnel at Coastal Environments Inc. have applied a geophysical and geological approach in their search for drowned prehistoric sites on the outer continental shelf of the Gulf of Mexico and within marshlands of south Louisiana. Initial efforts culminated in the retrieval of numerous vibracore samples from the...
Seas of Connection: The Irish-Italian Comparison In Understanding The Marginal State (2018)
This paper focuses on the similarities of marginal development and population movement between 19th and early 20th century communities in Western Ireland and Southern Italy. Focusing specifically on the local development of historically marginalized communities in South-West Co. Mayo, Ireland against that of the San Pasquale Valley in Calabria, Italy, this paper investigates narratives of state-sponsored marginalization in these two disparate locations, and traces the entanglements between...
