“I Had a Reindeer Called Onni . . .”: Reindeer Stories, Memory, and the Continuation of Reindeer Herding Culture in Northern Fennoscandia (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Exploring Long-Term Pastoral Dynamics: Methods, Theories, Stories" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In recent years, ethnoarchaeological research combining archaeological evidence and traditional knowledge of reindeer herders has added considerably to our understanding of cultural meanings of various reindeer herding practices traceable through the archaeological record. One important aspect brought forward by...

Iceland and the Colonial Project (2013)
This paper revolves around a central dilemma: whether to see Iceland as colonizer or colonized. On the one hand, it was linked to the Danish project of colonialism outside Europe, benefitting from access to exotic goods and influenced by ideologies of race and whiteness. On the other hand, Iceland was itself a dependency of Denmark, and from the nineteenth century, developed a discourse of nationalism and independence. This paper will examine the tensions of Iceland as colonizer/colonized...
Iita before the fall: Mitigation of a unique stratified site in the high Arctic of Greenland (2017)
Iita (Etah), which sits on the north shore of Foulke Fjord in northwestern Greenland, in many ways could serve as a poster child for climate-change-driven destruction of coastal sites. Sitting on an alluvial fan at the base of a steep-sloped kame deposit, the site has rich historic and late prehistoric occupations visible on its surface. But more uniquely for the high Arctic, there are also 1000 years of continuous human use locked in stratigraphically sequenced buried soils, starting with the...

The Impacts of Absence and Displacement on Viking Age Childhood (2024)
This is an abstract from the "The Marking and Making of Social Persons: Embodied Understandings in the Archaeologies of Childhood and Adolescence" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Childhood as a part of social and cultural frameworks is varied and fluid, and the space afforded to and occupied by children will vary in multiple ways according to intersecting lines of social identity. The Viking Age is generally recognized as a period of profound...

In Transition: The Collections and Veterans of the VCP (2023)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Pre-Recorded Video Presentation Paper / Report Submission (General Sessions)", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The Veterans Curation Program (VCP) is both a temporary employment program for veterans and an interim repository for archaeological collections while they undergo rehabilitation. During each session, veteran technicians help care for at-risk artifact and associated archival collections from the U....
Indigenous Experimental Archaeology: A Community-Driven Remembering of Technique (2017)
Archaeologists rely heavily on experimentation to understand the past. Today, we are not the only ones. Indigenous peoples and members of the public are consulting ethnographic and archaeological museum collections, by trial and error investigating techniques of object production. Many of these individuals work with craft specialists, and others are craftspeople themselves. They seek to learn, remember, and reclaim lost or fading skills in an attempt to connect with their pasts. The process...
The Inequalities of Households – Cemetery Management and Social Change in Early Medieval Iceland (2018)
In AD 1000 Icelanders adopted Christianity in an apparently swift and embracive fashion. The new tradition was implemented by discrete households that built private churches and cemeteries on their farms. These cemeteries were in use until the beginning of the 12th century and interred were all individuals of the household, men and women, the old and the young, householders and servants. The establishment, management, and abandonment sequences of these cemeteries reflect the religious, social,...

Integrating Isotope Analysis with Empirical Measures of Vitamin D Status: New Directions in the Study of Diet and Deficiency (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Integrating Isotope Analyses: The State of Play and Future Directions" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Stable isotope analytical techniques are increasingly employed alongside other innovative methods to gain a fuller understanding of past life-histories. Recent developments in biomedical sciences have offered non-invasive means of quantifying vitamin D status in individuals through the determination of 25(OH)D3...
Inter Duo Maria: Rethinking Early Medieval Settlement in the Forth-Clyde Zone through an Environmental Lens (2024)
This is an abstract from the "New Work in Medieval Archaeology, Part 1: Landscapes, Food, and Health" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The twin estuaries of the Firths of Forth and Clyde in southern Scotland boast a wealth of evidence for studying early medieval settlement. The modern population density around Glasgow and Edinburgh has resulted in a relatively large amount of data from rescue excavations and surveys compared to other parts of...
Interim Field Report, Gasir Hinterlands Project 2008, Midden Prospection (field report) (2008)
In June and August 2008 international teams cooperated in carrying out a program of survey, coring, and small scale test excavation on selected sites in the Eyjafjord region in Northern Iceland. This was the first season of a planned multi-season collaborative investigation of the hinterlands surrounding the medieval seasonal trading center at Gásir (Roberts 2004; Roberts et al, 2002- 2006; Harrison et al 2006 – 2008; Harrison, 2006-2008). Prior work at Gásir indicated that this...

Interpreting ‘Irishness’ in the Archaeological Record: A Northern Ireland Perspective (2018)
The northern Irish town of Carrickfergus, in the seventeenth century, was a thriving settlement; home to a mixed population of English and Scottish settlers, in addition to a local Gaelic-Irish population. As such, the excavated material evidence is particularly suited to considerations of how we interpret, and eventually ascribe, identity in the archaeological record. Cultural identity, and expressions of such identity – be that Irishness, Britishness, or Ulster Scottishness – lie at the heart...
