Coffin Hardware from the Scott Cemetery: a comparison with the Freedman's Cemetery (2017)
Excavations at Scott Cemetery in Dallas led to the rediscovery of three adult and three sub-adult burials. While the preservation of coffin wood was poor, intact coffin hardware was recovered. Artifacts include coffin and casket handles, various nails and thumb screws, and glass viewing windows. Historic records of Scott Cemetery provide a unique opportunity for coffin hardware analysis. With burials ranging from the late 19th century through the 1930s, knowing the interment dates of...

Cogs and Cane: The Evolution of Technology at a 19th Century Louisiana Sugar Mill (2015)
The mechanical din of the Industrial Revolution is not typically associated with 19th century Southern US plantation life. However, the advances in science and technology resulting from the Industrial Revolution enabled the Louisiana sugar industry to flourish in spite of climatic restrictions. Chatsworth Plantation (16EBR192) operated in East Baton Rouge Parish from the late 1830’s until the bankrupt plantation was sold at a Sheriff’s auction in 1928. The Chatsworth Plantation sugar mill was...

A Coin In The Mast Step (2017)
Placement of coins in the mast steps of ships has continued from the Roman 2nd century BC through the medieval, renaissance, and historic periods into the present day. The tradition is still entrenched in modern shipbuilding and even current Navy ships have a coin placed under the mast or tallest structure on the ship. The practice of putting a coin in the mast step has had continuity in western shipbuilding for over 2,000 years, although it is possible the cultural reasons for the practice...
Coinage at French & Indian War Sites in Northern New York State (2017)
Archaeology conducted by SUNY Adirondack and Plymouth State University at British military sites located along the Hudson River and in Lake George, New York, has recovered much colonial coinage that will be summarized here. Twenty-five years of excavations at British military encampments dating to the French & Indian War in northern New York State has revealed that mid-18th-century commerce was conducted with a combination of British and Spanish currency--a mixture of low-denomination English...
Coins In The Fountain: Finding Meaning in Everyday Votive Offerings (2017)
There is a very long history of people throwing valuable objects into bodies of water or fountains, and the practice has long been widespread. Today children ask for, and are often given, small-denomination coins to "make a wish" by tossing them into a fountain or pool. What are the origins and history of this behavior, and what beliefs and social motivations lie behind it, from ancient times to today? The social and physical formation processes that affect these "votive offerings" will be...
The Coins of Deadwood, S. Dakota (2017)
Coins can be very helpful in interpreting the physical remains found at historic-period sites. Their connections with economics, politics, cultural practices, and recreational activities can clarify obscure points that never made it into the historical record. Deadwood, South Dakota only dates back 142 years, but it is packed with history, and the people of Deadwood have become leaders in using their history to support their town. The coins from the old Deadwood Chinatown tell some particularly...
The Coins of Fort Atkinson: a study in numismatic archaeology. (2017)
Unlike much of the rest of the world, numismatics as practiced in America has little recognized scholastic standing. The lack of perceived value for numismatics is readily apparent in the archeology of the Great Plains, where the indigenous economy was not based on bullion value, where coin hoards like those found on the eastern seaboard are basically non-existent and numismatic objects are considered to ‘historic’ and thus intrusive to the prehistory of the region. In such a setting, numismatic...
The Coins of Kam Wah Chung, John Day, Oregon: Persistence of Chinese Culture Reflected Through Non-Monetary Uses of Chinese coins. (2017)
Kam Wah Chung was a frontier Chinese medical clinic, general store, community center and residence of two Chinese immigrants, Ing "Doc" Hay and Lung On, located in the frontier eastern Oregon town of John Day, Oregon. "Doc" Hay practiced traditional herbal medicine and Long On was proprietor of their general store. Left untouched for decades, Kam Wah Chung State Heritage Site is a remarkable time capsule capturing the life and times of the late 19th and early 20th century Chinese community....

Cold skin, warm socks? Remade and repurposed Burial Clothing in pre-modern northern Finland (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. When is a sock more than simply a sock? Two types of clothing are present in this dataset of pre-modern northern Finnish burials: (1) repurposed items used in life and repurposed as burial clothes (2) remade items crafted from second-hand materials specifically for burial. Despite ostensibly serving the same purpose, repurposed items remain functional, while remade items are often...

Collaborating with Carpenters: Historic House Care and Archaeology at Strawbery Banke Museum (2017)
Strawbery Banke Museum is an outdoor history museum in Portsmouth, NH with over 40 historic houses. The majority of these buildings sit on their original foundations, enabling archaeological research into the daily lives of the historic neighborhood’s residents. Recently, the primary motivation for museum excavations has been in preparation for construction work planned by the museum’s Heritage House Program. This presentation will describe how the archaeology department works in...
Collaborative Archaeology As Punk Archaeology? Considerations From The Maya Region (2015)
The punk ethos is alive and well in collaborative archaeology, even if it is rarely acknowledged. Like punk, collaborative archaeology is committed to social change, minimally by giving voice to and enabling the participation of previously marginalized people in archaeological investigations. The types of on-the-ground operations involved with collaborative projects take more time and resources, and can be slower to produce the types of insights common in more traditional approaches to...
Collaborative Archaeology at the Gage and Cheney Houses (2013)
Studies of reformers and the sites associated with them provide an opportunity to examine how people in the past sought to better their world and in turn, powerfully connect to contemporary efforts to reform society. In this paper, I detail the collaborative archaeological projects undertaken at two sites associated with female reformers – Matilda Joslyn Gage and May Cheney – noting the ways in which non-hierarchical, feminist-inspired research practices were employed in attempts to connect...
Collaborative Decolonial Approaches to Narrative in the Coastal Heritage at Risk Taskforce (2024)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Florida stands to lose more recorded sites to sea-level rise than any other state in the region, with nearly 4,000 estimated to be lost to a one-meter rise. For many of these heritage sites, untold stories of Florida history that are currently missing from the public record will also fade into obscurity as destruction occurs due to sea-level rise. Many of...
Collaboratively Creating a Digital Collection Database (2024)
This is an abstract from the "In Search of Solutions: Exploring Pathways to Repatriation for NAGPRA Practitioners (Part IV): NAGPRA in Policy, Protocol, and Practice" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Digital curation has become a critical component of a method of archaeological collection management, and UofL’s CACHe recently received an NEH Foundation grant to develop a collection database. Digital curation helps collection managers organize and...
