"Like rain in a drouth": Omaha, Nebraska's Costly Signaling at the Trans-Mississsippi and International Exposition of 1898 (2013)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Courtney L.C. Ziska.

In the late nineteenth-century, while eastern U.S. cities thrived as magnets of immigration, the lesser-known cities west of the Mississippi struggled to retain what populations they could attract, especially in the face of natural and financial disasters. These cities had to find ways of signaling their strengths in order promote increased settlement and stronger economies, so that they could compete with other cities on both regional and national scales. As this paper will demonstrate, one...

Limbus Infantum: Shrouds, Safety Pins, and the Materiality of Personhood in Juvenile Burials at the Milwaukee County Poor Farm Cemetery (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Brianne E Charles. Eric Burant. Patricia B. Richards.

Of the over 2000 individuals recovered from the Milwaukee County Poor Farm Cemetery (MCPFC), approximately one-third are juveniles under the age of 20. Age categories for the MCIG juveniles were established using a variety of dental, osteometric and nonosteometric methods. The example of juvenile lot 10007, (dental age assessment 5 postnatal months, osteometric age 39 fetal weeks) recovered with diaper fabric, safety pins, and a small angel pin, suggests that a more refined look at juvenile age...

This is an abstract from the "Recent Research at Jornada Mogollon Sites in South-Central New Mexico" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Recent fieldwork at Cottonwood Spring Pueblo and other Doña Ana and El Paso phase sites in New Mexico’s southern Tularosa Basin consistently reveal evidence of pottery manufacture. Pieces of natural and worked limonite have been found in proximity to jar fragments with a yellow coat of paint on their interior and...

A Linguistic Approach to Architecture: Geosemiotics and Performativity of the Built Environment (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Katherine Peterson.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In this paper, I argue that architecture, like language, is symbolic and communicates meaning. Therefore, architecture can be interpreted linguistically. The architecture in the ancient Southwest is no exception. Buildings were designed, built, and used with meaning. Using the theoretical frameworks of geosemiotics and performativity, I will illustrate...

Linking Archaeological and Documentary Evidence for Material Culture in Mid-Sixteenth-Century Spanish Florida: The View from the Luna Settlement and Fleet (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only John Worth.

The recent discovery and archaeological investigation of the 1559-1561 settlement of Tristán de Luna on Pensacola Bay, in concert with ongoing nearby excavations at the second and third Emanuel Point shipwrecks from Luna’s colonial fleet, has prompted new opportunities for research into the material culture of Spain’s mid-sixteenth-century New World empire. In an effort to develop systemic linkages between the material traces left behind in different archaeological contexts, both terrestrial...

Linking Disaster Risk Reduction, Climate Change Action, and Cultural Resource Management for Development (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Ilan Kelman. Anne Garland.

Climate change has taken over a large part of the disasters and development agenda. In examining the theory behind climate change mitigation, climate change adaptation (CCA), disaster risk reduction (DRR), and development, it is apparent that climate change offers little new. Climate change is one factor amongst many influencing hazards, to be considered when improving development and reducing vulnerabilities. This conclusion is reinforced by seeing that actions on the ground to deal with...

The "Linking Hispanic Heritage Through Archaeology" Program: Using National Parks to Engage Latino Youth With Their Cultural Heritage (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Barnet Pavao-Zuckerman. Trica Oshant Hawkins. Stanley Bond.

The National Park Service-sponsored "Linking Hispanic Heritage Through Archaeology" (LHHTA) program was created in response to the NPS’s call to action to "fully represent our nation’s ethnically and culturally diverse communities". The program, a collaboration between NPS, University of Arizona, and Environmental Education Exchange, connects Hispanic youth to their cultural history using regional archaeology as a bridge. The LHHTA goals are to 1. increase awareness of National Parks within...

Lipton Tea Tins Chronology (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Robin Mills.

Embossed Lipton Tea tin cans are a ubiquitous form of material culture found in many sites throughout the Western states and Alaska. Tins dating from the early-20th century through about World War II used paper labels, which almost never survive archaeologically. Tins with paper labels were purchased on eBay, which provided enough information to allow dating of the embossed Lipton tins commonly found in sites.

The Liquid Gold Rush: Oil and the Archaeological Boom (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Andrew J Robinson.

The Gold Rush of the 19th century brought people, jobs, and money to the western US, creating the first major boom. Since then, the US has advanced into other profitable avenues, in particular oil and natural gas. The 20th century saw the dramatic increase in the necessity for oil across the globe, which has led to a new boom, the "Liquid Gold Rush." As technology advanced, such as fracking, in the later part of the 20th and into the 21st Century, archaeology became entwined with oil and its...

A Lithic Analysis of Paraje San Diego, New Mexico, United States (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Paul W. van Wandelen.

For nearly three hundred years of official use, with long periods of unofficial use both pre- and post-dating the road, the Camino Real del Tierra Adentro served as one of the major conduits of transportation in New Mexico. Along the route, campsites, known as parajes, were established to provide adequate stopping points and access to resources for the variety of travelers which used the road. Paraje San Diego, one of the most established of these stopping points in the Jornada del Muerto, was...

Lithic Assemblage Variability at the Regional Level: Raw Material Conditions, Time, and Site Function (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jim Railey.

Several recent excavation projects by SWCA in far southeastern New Mexico have produced an immense dataset on lithic artifacts from 20 sites. This includes attribute data from thousands of individually analyzed lithic artifacts, mostly debitage. The excavated sites collectively cover a large swath across the region, and as such encompass appreciable variation in terms of local raw material conditions, as well as temporal affiliation and site function. Statistical analysis of the dataset was...

A Lithic Cache from the Crane Dune Site (41CR61), Crane County, Texas (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Robert Lassen.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. AmaTerra Environmental, an ERG Company, initially recorded site 41CR61 during a survey of a proposed highway expansion for the Texas Department of Transportation in 2019. The site was situated on a stabilized sand dune, and the presence of a buried dark earth anthrosol bearing multiple cooking features prompted data recovery excavations. During those...

Lithic Communities of Practice at the Missions of La Florida (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Charles R. Cobb. Gifford Waters.

Lithic data have received sparse attention in research on the Franciscan missions of Spanish La Florida. A re-analysis of the collections from three seventeenth-century interior missions reveals that Native Americans continued to rely on a diverse lithic technological tradition well after arrival of friars in their communities and the subsequent importation of metal tools. This pattern is also reflected in historical accounts where, for example, Native Americans were mandated to maintain quotas...
