This is an abstract from the session entitled "Plantation Archaeology as Slow Archaeology" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In keeping with the theme of this session, we consider the juxtaposition of Slow Archaeology with “data-centric” research, and what gets lost in framing the two as oppositional. The Digital Archaeological Archive of Comparative Slavery (DAACS, www.daacs.org) is a web-based initiative designed to foster comparative research on...
Digital Archaeological Data in All the Classrooms: Case studies using the Digital Index of North American Archaeology (DINAA) for Teaching Digital Methods in Graduate and Undergraduate Curricula (2017)
This paper presents case studies in developing information literacy about archaeological methods and heritage resources, involving use of the Digital Index of North American Archaeology (DINAA) in graduate and undergraduate programs at Adams State University and Indiana University. DINAA is a linked open data hub which uses archaeological site definitions as a core from which to explore further information, including excavation and collections data, scholarly publications, and related...
Digital Archaeological Data: An Examination Of Different Publishing Models (2015)
The open data movement, inter-site analysis, and the desire for public outreach are encouraging archaeologists to share data, as well as results. Yet the history of archaeological collections provides concerns about access and preservation that extend to managing digital assets. This paper will examine the availability of digital archaeological data in Virginia, based on a recent survey, and examine the strengths and weaknesses of different models of archaeological data publication.

As environmental shifts intensify, archaeological sites are increasingly at risk, necessitating urgent measures to protect their...
Digital Archaeology: Telling the Stories of the Past Using Technology of the Future (2017)
New digital technologies have been slow to be adopted by the archaeological field. While archaeologists are encouraged to undertake public education and outreach, we haven't yet fully embraced the immersive visual & interactive online tools available to us. Traditional means of publishing no longer suffices as a strategy for long-term preservation of our field. While young professional archaeologists are attempting to bridge this gap by providing first hand visual data from the field, it isn't...
Digital Documentation and Assessment of the Remote Colonial Church at Ecab, Quintana Roo, Mexico (2015)
Located on the remote northeastern tip of the Yucatan Peninsula sits the 16th century church at Ecab, thought to be the first church in Mexico, which is in a fragile state of decay and in need of documentation and conservation. The church as well as the curate's house have been abandoned since 1644 and have both survived centuries of hurricanes and erosion. The site, also referred to as Boca Iglesias, was a remote encomienda in colonial Mexico and still remains isolated today on a coastal rise...
Digital Exhibits without the Developer: Technological Tools for Museum Outreach (2019)

The Steamboat Bertrand artifacts, an archaeological collection housed at DeSoto National Wildlife Refuge in Missouri Valley, Iowa, and material culture from the Foxfire Museum and...
Digital Historic Preservation: Recording and Interpreting the Patterson-Altman’s Mill with 3-D Scanning (2016)
The purpose of this study is to compare the traditional recording as conducted by the Historic American Engineering Record (HAER) with modern 3-D scanning, focusing on the Patterson-Altman Mill located in Saltsburg, PA. The Patterson-Altman Mill was originally built in 1912 and recorded by HAER in 1987 (HAER No. PA-110), and is currently featured on the Preservation Pennsylvania at Risk 2013/14 and Preservation National 2014 list. This study will use the image data collected from a 3- D Leica...

This paper presents recent findings from development of DINAA’s site database, efforts to link DINAA with mined references from digital literature, and efforts to prepare DINAA for future crowd-sourced professional data citations. The continental United States spans eight million square kilometers,...
Dining And Resistance In Chinese Diaspora Archaeology: A Case Study Of Food Practices From The Market Street Chinatown, San Jose, California (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Arming the Resistance: Recent Scholarship in Chinese Diaspora Archaeology" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Chinese immigrants to the United States of America in the second half of the 19th century encountered racial prejudice, discrimination, and violence. Activities such as cooking and eating were central to how Chinese people dealt with these challenges. We take a close look at the plant and animal...
Dining in Detroit: A critical look at urban food consumption patterns through 19th Century Faunal Remains Analysis. (2018)
As North American cities underwent growth and change in the early to mid 1800s, production and consumption of food became a chief driving force in this transformation. For many North American cities, including Detroit, a defining moment in urbanization is characterized by the change in food production. Through an assemblage of faunal remains, historical documents, and cookbooks, this paper attempts to illustrate the processes of change in Detroit during 19th century, and observe the transition...

Dinner Parties and Hospitality at the Betty’s Hope Plantation (Antigua), 1783-1904 (2015)
This paper examines practices of hospitality and convivial dining at the Betty’s Hope plantation, Antigua, between 1783 and 1904. Dinner parties are codified social gatherings that gained popularity in Britain during the eighteenth century, in the context of class emulation and the emergence of consumerism. Dinner parties figure consistently in accounts of plantation life in the Caribbean, whether in the often satirical and deprecating written accounts of contemporary visitors, or in common...

Disaster Survey and Documentation of Southwest Florida Archaeological Site Damage from Hurricane Ian (2024)
This is an abstract from the "*SE Hope for the Future: A Message of Resiliency from Archaeological Sites in South Florida" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Accelerating shifts in climate and extreme weather events such as hurricanes threaten archaeological sites, especially in coastal regions which contain some of the most vulnerable forms of cultural heritage. As such, coastal archaeological sites provide exemplary locations for 1) the rapid study...
