This is an abstract from the "Local Development and Cross-Cultural Interaction in Pre-Hispanic Southwestern New Mexico and Southeastern Arizona" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Bone tools are not always recognized in a zooarchaeological analysis, and often once identified, the function or use is even more difficult to define. A modified rabbit innominate found by the authors in two Jornada-Mogollon sites presented here is one such example. The...
Alternative Methods To Using Sucrose In Wood Conservation (2020)
This is a poster submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In recent years, conservators have identified risks associated with the use of sucrose as a bulking agent for waterlogged wood. These include shrinkage, color change, failure to support highly degraded wood, and difficulty in detecting microbial bacteria. Experiments are planned to test the results of conservation on wood samples recovered from a Spanish colonization vessel (Emanuel Point...

Altus Air Force Base: Cold War-Era Buildings and Structures Inventory and Assessment (2003)
This report provides an inventory and assessment of the Cold War-era (1945-1991) built environment at Altus Air Force Base (AFB), Oklahoma. Of the 1,056 Cold War-era buildings inventoried at Altus AFB, only 17 (16 buildings and one structure) were further evaluated based on their association with the Cold War missions of Altus AFB. Of the 17 evaluated resources, only one building (Building 285) and one structure (alert apron) were recommended eligible for listing in the National Register of...
Amelia Earhart Versus Castaway Cobbler, The Notorious Bones Of Nikumaroro Island (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Exploring the Recent Past" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The disappearance of the famous aviatrix Amelia Earhart and her navigator Fred Noonan during an attempted around-the-world flight in 1937 remain a compelling mystery. In March 2018, news media worldwide proclaimed that a new analysis of human remains found on Nikumaroro Island in the Pacific shows with ostensible 99% certainty that they were Earhart's. This...
"America in Tears." The Revolutionary Foundations of National Identity Narratives. (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Advocacy in Archaeology: Thoughts from the Urban Frontier" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. What can we learn from urban archaeology about the early formation of American identity that can help us address the many current challenges to social justice? Historical narratives are constantly rewritten to serve various interests of power. Archaeology can help us to see the constructedness of those narratives and...
America Loses a Star and Stripe. The First Full-Scale Battle of the Southern Winter Campaign of 1778-1779, the Battle of Brier Creek, Georgia. (2016)
One of America's bloodiest Revolutionary War Battlefields remained lost and poorly understood until recently. The use of LiDAR mapping and terrain analysis, metal detection, and cadaver dogs, characteristics of a complicated battlefield environ revealed themselves. The Battle of Brier Creek, Screven County, Georgia was the first open land engagement of the British Southern Winter Campaign of 1778-1779. It was also the first Patriot offensive in the South against an overwhelming British force...

An American Dilemma: The Archaeology of Race Riots Past, Present, and Future (2016)
At the center of Myrdal’s An American Dilemma is the understanding that cycles of violence continue to oppress African Americans. His dilemma refers to the inconsistency between this cycle and the national ethos of upward social mobility. The situation remains unchanged for many minorities today. This paper charts how this cycle of violence has transformed through time by drawing upon the author’s ongoing work in Rosewood, Florida and elsewhere. Although an archaeology of American race riots...
American Disruptive Archaeologies: The Theory and Practice of Punk (2015)
In my presentation, I will look at the five most common tenets of Punk Archaeology as an approach to Public Archaeology, citing contemporary examples of each within an American context: • Apply a do-it-yourself (DIY) aesthetic to archaeology projects, especially when funding, personnel, and other kinds of support are lacking. • Study marginalized archaeologies, and conduct the archaeology of cultures and places eschewed by the Academy. • Study the history and archaeology of Punk and Punk...
American Forts and Dakota Burial Mounds: Landscapes of Mourning and Dominion at the Boundaries of Colonialist Expansion (2015)
For hundreds of years, the Dakota landscaped natural liminal zones (high promontories above water) with burial earthworks. These sacred landscapes signaled boundaries between spiritual realms, the living and the dead, and local village domains. During the 19th century, the U.S. Government took ownership of the Dakota homelands in Minnesota and the Dakota Territory leading to violent conflict and decades of war. At the boundary of this conflict forts were built to "sweep the region now occupied...
The American Fur Company's Industrial Fishing Experiment On Isle Royale (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Working on the 19th-Century" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The American Fur Company was in decline by the 1830’s as fashion trends shifted in Europe. To diversify, the AFC expanded into the fishing industry in Lake Superior. This paper focuses on the understudied history of the AFC and early industrial fishing on Isle Royale. Fishing operations took place on the island from 1837-1841. Industrial fishing operations...

American Made: The Development of Ethnic Identities, Racism, and Economic Growth of the Young American Republic (2016)
Ethnic identification in the archaeological record is fraught with pitfalls. The application of ethnic divisions on populations that helped construct the industrial arteries of New York State are a popular lens to view history through. The immigrant populations that gave life and limb to construct the Erie Canal and the New York Railroad system paved the way for the development of the industrial Northeast. This study hopes to evaluate the efficacy of ethnic identification of the archaeological...

American Stoneware, What it Looks Like from an 18th Century Point of View (2016)
Salt-glazed stoneware vessels and sherds found on 19th century sites are generally assumed to be of North American manufacture, unless they are highly decorated, but sherds from 18th century sites are usually identified as German made. American potters, however, made highly decorated vessels in the German style beginning in the early 18th century and many vessels attributed to Europe were made in New York, New Jersey, or Pennsylvania. These vessels can be identified by their pastes and other...
