This is an abstract from the session entitled "Considering Frontiers Beyond the Romantic: Spaces of Encroachment, Innovation, and Far Reaching Entanglements" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The early 19th century saw an influx of settlers, miners, and profiteers from both the established United States and foreign nations into the western frontier in search of wealth through the mining and smelting of lead. What they brought with them were consumption...
A Mini-ROV Expedition to the S.S. Tahoe: Citizen Scientists, Engineers, and Archaeologists Exploring the Deep—Together (2017)
The Steamer Tahoe is the most celebrated vessel of Lake Tahoe’s historic past and represents the golden age of recreation and transportation in the region. She was launched with great fanfare on June 24, 1896 and spent the next 40 years in service around the lake. The S. S. Tahoe was scuttled off Glenbrook, Nevada in 1940 where she settled at a depth between 350-470 feet. A multidisciplinary team, including an online community, explored the wreck in June 2016 using an OpenROV drone to record...

Mining the Land, Mining the Sea: Informal Economy and Drinking Spaces in the Resource Extraction Communities of Highland City, Montana and the Isles of Shoals, Maine. (2015)
Frontiers spaces are zones of meeting, interaction, dynamism, and change. Current research has sought to fight the image of frontier spaces as locations needing westward-moving civilization. Instead, examining frontier locales comparatively has proved to be a more effective approach. My doctoral research intends to contribute to the comparative approach in frontier archaeology by examining the way that the actions of frontier inhabitants (including negotiation, conflict, and cohesion) combined...
Minnesota’s Historic Human Remains Project: Research Methods and the Identities of Human Skeletal Remains (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In 2017 the Minnesota legislature awarded a Legacy grant to fund the Historic Human Remains Project. The intent of the project was to identity human skeletal remains discovered in disturbed, undocumented graves, identify living descendants (if possible), and facilitate the reburial process. In certain circumstances, human remains not of American Indian ancestry fall under the...

Misidentification on the American Frontier: Queer Perspectives on Identity Classification in Historical Archaeology (2019)
This is an abstract from the "The Future Is Fluid...and So Was the Past: Challenging the 'Normative' in Archaeological Interpretations" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. As archaeologists we link patterns of performance and daily practice to identity categories. Theses classifications depend on normalized understandings of idealized behaviors. However, the groupings we use to discuss past actors rarely fully encompass the extent of behaviors in which...
Missions, Herds, and Habitat: Analyzing Livestock Dynamics in the Desert Pimería Alta (2024)
This is an abstract from the "The Columbian Exchange Revisited: Archaeological and Anthropological Perspectives on Eurasian Domesticates in the Americas" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Columbian Exchange reshaped ecosystems and societies across the Western Hemisphere, and the Pimería Alta (today Sonora and Arizona) was no exception. The establishment of Spanish colonial missions in the Pimería Alta region beginning in 1687 marked a pivotal...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Revolutionizing Approaches to Campus History - Campus Archaeology's Role in Telling Their Institutions' Stories" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The American West’s urban undergrounds are laced with mystique and lore. Well-known historic undergrounds exist throughout the American West in cities such as Portland, Pendleton, Seattle, Boise, and Butte. Tales exist of secret underground passages to houses of...

"Mo té la": Community-Engaged Plantation Archaeology in French Guiana (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Community Archaeology in 2020: Conventional or Revolutionary?" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Archaeology in French Guiana takes place within a neo-colonial framework in terms of permitting, reporting, and disseminating results. While still a generally public pursuit, archaeological projects rarely deploy explicit strategies for involving stakeholders in research. Furthermore, because archaeology is...
The Mobile River as a Maritime Cultural Landscape (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Archaeologies of Enslavement" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Fieldwork conducted in 2018 concluded that Alabama’s Twelvemile Island Wreck (1BA694) was not that of the slave ship Clotilda; however, archaeologists did uncover evidence that the wreck site is just one component of a historic ship graveyard integral to the broader maritime cultural landscape of the Mobile River. Archival research suggests that ...
A Model And Tools For Investigating The Monterrey Shipwrecks (2015)
Work on the Monterrey shipwrecks, conducted from the NOAA ship Okeanos Explorer and the Ocean Exploration Trust vessel E/V Nautilus, has used some of the most advanced remotely operated vehicles and communication systems ever designed for exploring the deep ocean. Both ships use telepresence as their operational model to enable shore-based scientists to engage in live interdisciplinary scientific exploration over the internet. This not only raises the intellectual capital of the project by...
A Model for Analyzing Ship and Cargo Abandonment Using Economic and Utilitarian Values (2016)
The Civil War shipwreck Modern Greece serves as an example in the development of a theoretical model to analyze value as a means of interpreting shipwreck and cargo abandonment. This model outlines a set of multiple hypotheses to test the economic and utilitarian values associated with the abandonment of a large volume of blockade-runner cargo from this vessel. This project identifies the possibilities for expanding this theoretical framework to address the abandonment of shipwrecks, cargos, and...
A Model for Archaeology: Presenting the Excavation Experience through 3D Printing Stratified Archaeological Sites (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Digital Technologies and Public Archaeology" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. A critical component of public archaeology is being able to experience the excavation. “Doing” is a highly significant element of the discipline and particularly effective for tactile learners of all ages. The Fairfield Foundation is pioneering a process that breaks down barriers to making archaeological contexts accessible,...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Located in the foothills of the Manzano Mountains in southeastern New Mexico, the site of Comanche Springs has been an object of research and excavation spanning five decades. However, the social fabric of the people who once occupied this seventeenth-century colonial settlement remain unclear. Was this relatively isolated population an exemplary ‘hybrid’...
