In 1969, construction of I-5 through Yreka in northern California, threatened to destroy historic building foundations and archaeological deposits associated with Yreka’s Chinese community. From January to March 1969, State Parks archaeologists conducted a salvage excavation at the location of what was Yreka’s last Chinatown, occupied from 1886 through the 1940s. This was one of the earliest excavations of a Chinese community in California. Archaeologists recorded nine features and cataloged...
"Cursed Be He that Moves My Bones:"The Archaeologist’s Role in Protecting Burial Sites in Urban Areas (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. The pace of development in the northeastern US has resulted in the obliteration of cemetery sites for centuries. As populations swelled and cities expanded, formerly sacred burial locations have become valuable land ripe for development. As a result of loopholes in environmental review laws, gaps in social memory/the...

Cut and Fill-adelphia: Measuring Topographic Change since the 19th Century in Philadelphia (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Urban Archaeology: Down by the Water" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Urban landscapes are some of the most intensely modified contexts in which archaeological sites are located. These modifications can dramatically impact the preservation of sites. Methodologically characterizing such changes allow archaeologists to strategically direct their efforts away from areas where disturbance has erased most...
A Cutt of the Catt’s Ears: The State of Physic in Early 18th Century Williamsburg. (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. During the first half of the 18th century, Williamsburg resident John Custis, Governor’s councilmember and scientific gardener, filled 69 pages of a Commonplace Book with remedies for afflictions ranging from worms and epilepsy to “after pains in the childbed”. Were these receipts—more than 180 of them--- products of Custis’s personal experience and anxiety? A reflection of his...

Cuyamungue and Partnership (2019)
This is an abstract from the "From Collaboration to Partnership in Pojoaque, New Mexico" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The papers in this session illustrate the many benefits that follow from archaeologists and community members working together in partnership. In this paper, I explain why the concept of partnership better-captures the approach we are taking than the related concepts of indigenous and collaborative archaeology. I also describe...
cyberSW: A Data Synthesis and Knowledge Discovery System for Long-Term Interdisciplinary Research on Southwest Social Change (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. A major challenge in using archaeological data at large, regional scales is that information is not digitally curated or synthesized beyond individual projects. A number of recent synthesis projects in the U.S. Southwest show the great potential of these data for addressing important social science questions such as: What promotes the success or failure of...

This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The archaeology of the Japanese Diaspora is an emerging field that focuses on the experiences and material culture of Nikkei (individuals with Japanese heritage) across the world. This paper adds to this growing literature by reporting on the results of fieldwork at the Japanese Camp at the Barneston Townsite (45KI1424). Investigated as part of the Issei at Barneston Project (IABP),...
The Dalles to Sandy River Wagon Road: Overland through the Columbia River Gorge (2015)
Upon reaching the Oregon Cascades, most Oregon Trail pioneers either rafted their wagons down the Columbia River or traveled the Barlow Road overland around the south side of Mt. Hood to the Willamette Valley, both treacherous options. Following the discovery of gold in eastern Oregon, reliable overland travel became an increasing priority, and the state appropriated resources in 1872 to build a wagon road through the Columbia River Gorge. Treacherous slopes, steep grades, and construction of...

Daniel Gookin's Atlantic World: An ESRI GIS Storymap for Archaeology (2016)
Presenting archaeological data to both public and academic audiences in the digital age presents problems and opportunities to make the results of excavation and survey more accessible. In some cases, one class of data is highlighted over another resulting in an unbalanced perspective. The ESRI Story map platform provides a template that can visually represent spatial information, and link this with photographs, artifact catalogs, and primary documents. What is more, Story Maps are set up to be...
Daniel Gookin’s Atlantic World: Comparative Archaeological Landscapes in Ireland and Virginia. (2013)
This poster illustrates an enhanced comparative approach to understanding colonial projects by using the archaeological biography of Daniel Gookin Jr. (1612-1685), an important but relatively unknown figure involved in English plantation projects in Ireland, Virginia, Maryland, and Massachusetts. The study of individual biography provides a framework from which to better situate archaeological sites of the seventeenth-century Chesapeake in the greater Atlantic world. Through creating a broader...
Danish Colonial Healthcare Policy and Enslaved Healing Practices on St. Croix, US Virgin Islands. (2015)
This paper explores the relationship between Danish centrally administered healthcare policy and enslaved populations on the island of St. Croix, US Virgin Islands during the nineteenth century. During the period between 1803 and 1848, a series of plantation medical hospitals were constructed on the island in order to provide medical services to enslaved individuals in an effort to reduce mortality and morbidity rates. This paper will address the preliminary archaeological fieldwork stages of my...
A Danish Colonial Merchant's Residence in Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas: Material expressions of colonialism and the intersection of local and global trade at the Bankhus (2013)
Archaeology at a Danish colonial merchant's residence in Charlotte Amalie projects the complex yet distinct array of consumer goods available in a 19th century Danish Caribbean port town. The walled compound housed a series of 19th and early 20th merchants/bankers and their household servants. This study explores the intersection of micro and macro history as it assesses the material and documentary record of the site. The house and its furnishings were selected for commemorative photo...
Danish Defense of St. Croix (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Military Sites Archaeology in the Caribbean: Studies of Colonialism, Globalization, and Multicultural Communities" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.

The Dardenne Presbyterian Church Archaeological Project (2016)
This paper examines the archaeological remains of the Dardenne Presbyterian Church in Dardenne Prairie, Missouri. Constructed in 1845, the Church served as a gathering ground for residents of the area for both religious and social purposes. During the course of the Civil War, the Church was encountered by Union soldiers who proceeded to burn it down in 1862. Today, the remains of the church can still be found. Through selective shovel testing and excavation, various building materials have been...
Dark Places: Archaeological Investigations of Historic Underground Mines (2015)
Despite decades of research at historic mines, archaeological forays in North America have seldom extended to investigate underground workplaces. The reasons are understandable: underground mines are hazardous environments, and it is also the case that fewer mines are accessible due to environmental remediation. The current underrepresentation of the underground, however, has limited disciplinary insights into the mining life. This paper draws from a set of pioneering studies that draw attention...
