The Bennehan-Cameron family fortune started with a single store in the 18th-century North Carolina Piedmont.  Over several generations, their wealth expanded to include the ownership of up to 900 individuals, scattered across many farms in several states.  This paper examines the intersection between these two spheres: an emergent consumer society and the institution of slavery.  People owned by the Bennehans, Camerons, and their neighbors are among the purchasers enumerated in daybooks and...

The "Slave Cabin" at Stagville, excavated in 1979, was a component of the home farm quarter on one of the largest plantations in North Carolina.  The small structure has several qualities that prompted its inclusion in the Digital Archaeological Archive for Comparative Slavery.  As the first site from the state in the database, it will allow researchers to isolate and identify patterns associated with local conditions, including topography, settlement history, and regional economy.  Stagville as...

This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Between 1857 and 1858 as the Seminole Tribe rebelled against the American policy of forced Indian Removal, hundreds of captive Seminole Tribal members were held by the US army in a prison camp on the Island of Egmont Key. Nearly all were non-combatants, women, children, and elders who were taken from their homes to be removed to Indian Territory out west. Egmont Key saw the last...

In the 1970s a group of radical Black Feminists, known as the Combahee River Collective, met and put forth a concept they called the "simultaneity of oppression." In 1989, legal studies scholar, Kimberlé Crenshaw coined the term "intersectionality" to describe the interlocking matrix of oppression (meaning race, gender and class) experienced by women of African descent within the U.S. legal system. For African Diaspora archaeology, the framework of intersectionality has become a useful method...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Monuments, Memory, and Commemoration" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The NC Division of Cultural Resources has enacted a division-wide plan to recognize and embrace the state’s African American heritage resources and communities in a dynamic way. In particular, the Division is taking an active role to support the stewardship of NC’s African American burial grounds. This paper will detail how the North...

Site 36MG0443, situated on an upland hilltop in a plowed field in central Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, is comprised of a shallow basin containing approximately 300 jasper flakes. Of the features present at the site, Feature 3 yielded radiocarbon dates of approximately 600 and 700 BC and was occupied during the Early Woodland period. Three lithic samples from Feature 3 were submitted for starch, phytolith, and protein analysis. The goal of the analysis was to identify use of these lithic...

Despite decades of archaeological research on enslaved communities, few studies have directly addressed the impact of the forced movement of Black women and men between sites of slavery.  Such relocations could dramatically alter the lives of enslaved individuals by removing them from their existing social networks and inserting them into a new community where such connections would have to be created anew.  While ongoing excavations at Belle Grove Plantation (Fredrick County, Virginia) are...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Community Archaeology in 2020: Conventional or Revolutionary?" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Little archaeological research has been conducted on the historic black communities of Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts despite the long history of African and African American life on the island. This paper discusses potential archaeological sites related to African American presence in the town of Oak Bluffs,...

Advancements in sound underwater remote sensing have resulted in effective ways to study the ocean bottom, reconstruct paleolandscape settings, and find pre-contact archaeological sites.  The inventory of submerged sites known to date ranges from 3 to 13 kya.  These sites are located in, and theorized to exist from nearshore to mid-shelf settings, but the potential for pre-contact sites goes all the way out to the continental shelf break, a fact confirmed by recent findings of several pre-Clovis...

This is an abstract from the "Shipwrecks and the Public: Getting People Engaged with their Maritime History" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The Lower Great Lakes and Upper Saint Lawrence River has served as a natural corridor of transportation, its intensification increasing exponentially with the lifting of restrictions on commercial shipping and shipbuilding in 1785. These restrictions coincided with a shift from military shipbuilding that had...

When considering cultural landscapes, military installations are unique due to their development through continued use for defense-related purposes. As a result of this active use, military cultural landscapes continue to evolve, changing yet staying the same in terms of function. As a military base, Camp Clark has been in operation for over one hundred years and boasts the oldest National Guard rifle range in the state of Missouri. Camp Clark was established on April 28th, 1908, as a result of...
