Using Scientific Diving as a Tool to Tell the Story of Human History: Bringing the São José Paquete de Africa Into Memory. (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jay V. Haigler. Kamau Sadiki.

Scientific diving is a powerful tool that can be used to tell the story of human history and cultural behavior. On December 3, 1794, the São José Paquete de Africa, a Portuguese ship transporting over 500 captured Africans, left Mozambique, on the east coast Africa, for what was to be a 7,000 mile voyage to Maranhao, Brazil, and the sugar plantations. The ship was scheduled to deliver the enslaved Africans in February, 1795, some four months later. However, the journey lasted only 24 days....


Using the Products of Yesterday's Stewardship to Tackle Today's Questions in Historical Archaeology: Insights from the River Basin Surveys Collections (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Lotte E Govaerts.

Many current practices in American archaeology arose from the mid-20th century River Basin Surveys (RBS). These surveys were part of the Inter-Agency Salvage Program, an unprecedentedly large effort to investigate archaeological sites threatened by extensive dam-building projects. RBS researchers studied mostly prehistoric sites, but the work was also a turning point for historical archaeology, especially of the Great Plains and the American West in general. The research priorities of the RBS...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Lindsey Cochran.

This is an abstract from the "Case Studies from SHA’s Heritage at Risk Committee" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.

Vecino Archaeology and the Politics of Play (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Sunday Eiselt.

Francis Swadesh identified an 18th century vecino cultural pattern, which after American occupation, retracted into the isolated hills and tributary valleys of the northern Rio Grande.  This paper investigates the impacts of the American invasion on vecino culture through a consideration of children’s artifacts and fantasy play.  As children were gradually excluded from the workforce and drawn into the home, they were simultaneously pulled into an expanding commercial market and public...


Vectors of Privilege: The Material Culture of White Flight (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Christopher Matthews.

The achievement gap, "failing" schools, re-segregation and blight, while often seen as problems and signs of people of color in the US, are better understood as the results of modern efforts to enforce white privilege. Thus, as historical research on the building and renewal of American cities proceeds, we need to pay attention to how policies and practices supporting racial advantage were put in place and made material on the landscape. The urban and suburban northeast is an especially good...
