This is an abstract from the session entitled "Citizen Science in Maritime Archaeology: The Power of Public Engagement for Heritage Monitoring and Protection" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The ocean covers more than 70% of the surface of our planet and the open sea, estuaries and rivers have been used for millennia as the most efficient way to transport large cargoes across the globe. And accidents do happen!! So it is no surprize that "the sea is the...

The new Mary Rose museum opens in early 2013.  It is the latest phase in the story of this remarkable ship built 500 years ago, sunk in 1545 and raised in 1982.  In 1974, it was the second ship to be designated under the Protection of Wrecks Act.   But how and why has this ship been able to progress from a small scale project starting like many others in the UK to being one with international impact?  This paper will start by looking at the vision behind the project and its evolution - from the...

The 1920s and 1930s saw the renewal of large parts of Britain’s housing stock. In Birmingham, England, new housing projects were constructed in the suburbs, each home having three bedrooms, bathroom, indoor lavatory, garden, and local amenities – a contrast to the back-to-back housing in the centre of Birmingham that new suburban homes sought to replace. The back-to-backs were seen as crowded and insanitary, children sharing bedrooms with adults and non-family lodgers. The form and fabric of new...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "FoodCult: Food, Culture and Identity in Ireland, c.1550-1650", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. This paper will explore the nature and meaning of foodways in post-medieval Ireland, based upon a new survey of archaeobotanical remains from more than 50 excavations across the island. The sixteenth and seventeenth centuries were a period of increasingly globalised trade when new foods arrived in Ireland, some of...

In 2012 in the United Kingdom there were 61 wreck sites protected under the Protection of Wrecks Act (1973). These wrecks are identified as being the most important historical and archaeological wrecks in UK territorial waters.  Since 2005 the NAS has worked to not only facilitate access to these heritage assets but to also contribute to the research aims of the volunteer custodians. This paper will highlight the opportunity that a diver trail on the Norman’s Bay wreck launched in 2011, offers...

This paper considers the sources of demand for European-manufactured goods among the Native American societies of the Northeast Woodlands in the early seventeenth century.  I propose that among the Wendat-Tionnantate and Attiwandaron societies of southern Ontario, objects perceived to be potent – including many obtained from European sources – fed into local ‘economies of affect’.  These systems involved characteristic cycles of ritual exchange focussed on the accumulation and enchainment of...

Within Public Archaeology, there has been a critical cultural shift towards awareness of the benefit of public engagement online. A tendency towards 'cyber-Utopianism' would suggest that Internet technologies can foster new dialogue, present community-constructed knowledge, underpin new organisational relationships, whilst redistributing access to cultural resources. Although the democratisation of online communication and production have stretched the boundaries of belonging, critical...

The Nautical Archaeology Society Training Programme is often perceived as being a " fun programme for amateaur divers" but that is "not really for professionals".  However over the past 26 years the NAS Training Programme has been utilised by both national and state heritage agencies and also by universities all over the world. The reason being is that the flexible programme allows the teacher to devise a structured course with content that helps build the skills required by...

This is an abstract from the "Frontier and Settlement Archaeology" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Relationships between people and landscapes can be used to inform upon social and behavioural variations. Hurricanes and shifting climactic dynamics around Ocracoke Island in the Outer Banks NC directly affected this relationship. Historically, Ocracoke provided vital trade and communication links from the West Indies to North America. Pilot Town,...

I firmly believe in open-ended research because profound insights unrelated to stated objectives can arise from research projects. This paper explores the nature of indigeneity in our modern world of trans-nationals and international commuters, of being everywhere and nowhere, using the unlikely forum of a modest archaeological research project focusing on the Greenham Common Peace Women’s protests of 1982-1995. Indigeneity is conventionally understood as a relationship to place, or as a...

The station records from the Kinchega Pastoral Estate (western NSW Australia) include book-keeping records for the Estate’s three main homesteads– Kinchega, Kars and Mulculca between 1892 and 1954.  The late 19th-early 20th century is an important period in Australia’s history, with increasing globalisation, commodification, and communications systems. These records cover the consumption practices associated with Australia’s important pastoral industry, at one of the largest holdings in NSW. The...

Current debate in public archaeology has repositioned archaeologists as members of the community, rather than specialists distinct from the public. Although this moves away from privileging archaeological perspectives of the past towards a more dialogical engagement with communities, in practice the motivations and agendas of specialists and public with respect to the archaeological resource are not easily reconciled. An archaeological ethnography example from Crete explores the tensions between...

The ruins of the recent past pose a management riddle for those who must decide their fate. Options for action oscillate between removal and eradication on the one hand, and restoration and elevation to the status of heritage object on the other. While some sites have actively embraced a philosophy of continued ruination, this approach must contend with continual calls for stabilisation (or demolition). Ultimately, those who manage such spaces must be seen to be ‘doing something’, beyond...

In a time when social and racial justice and collective action is evermore the crux of African American communities, the importance of public engagement and community archaeology and mapping historical activism is evident. This paper will present initial findings of the archaeological and archival research project at the Parker Academy, founded in 1839 in southern Ohio. This Academy was the first school in Ohio, and the country, to house multiracial coeducational classrooms. Importantly, it was...

Mark Crinson writes of the city as a physical landscape and a collection of objects and practices that both enable recollections of the past, and embody the past through traces of the city’s sequential building and rebuilding. The homes of the people of Vauxhall, an inner-city district of Liverpool, were demolished and rebuilt in successive waves of ‘slum’ clearance during the 20th century, the latest manifestation of the area’s working-class housing being shaped by residents themselves – a...

This paper presents a pilot study that takes two archaeological sites, one on land and one underwater, and presents how these sites stand today, and how they might have looked in the past. We do this by building the sites in a virtual environment within a game engine to create an interactive educational resource. This project takes archaeological data and processes it into consumable content aimed at the general public, without sacrificing on the intellectual integrity of the site. We will...

This paper investigates the processes of rural social reform in the Scottish Highlands during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Through a study of the Isle of Lewis, the most northerly of the Scottish Hebrides, the conflicting attitudes of tenants and those in a position of authority to tenant housing and living conditions are explored. While the desire for social reform drove landowners (and, later, local authorities) to try and improve the living conditions of the Lewis tenants,...

Moscow was heavily affected by Stalinist terror, since many targeted groups were concentrated there. It was also, however, a concentrated center of perpetration, since the designers of the purges and multi-faceted ‘apparatus of terror’ were based there. Today, the buildings formerly occupied by the NKVD still stand in central Moscow. Within a five-minute walk in any direction, one can find, among other sites, a garage where thousands of Muscovites were shot, the FSB’s current headquarters, and...

English Heritage, the UK Government’s adviser on the historic environment of England, has over a decade of experience in the management of shipwreck sites. This experience is largely based on managing change to the remains of sunken wooden vessels which allowed for the publication of online guidance on pre-Industrial ships and boats in spring 2011. However, in order to begin to understand the management requirements of metal-hulled ships and boats, English Heritage has commenced a programme of...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Historical Archaeology on the Island of Ireland: New Perspectives" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries in Ireland saw much conflict as the English crown sought to establish its rule throughout the island. The period saw government servants alongside entrepreneurs and adventurers take a greater interest in Ireland. As one consequence, more maps and pictorial images...
