Silenced Undertakers (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Sandra Hollimon.

This is an abstract from the "Silenced Rituals in Indigenous North American Archaeology" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Chumash undertakers were third gender persons and postmenopausal women. The Spanish Mission system significantly disrupted traditional practices, especially through sexual violence as a silencing tool. I examine the impacts of the Spanish colonial effort on Chumash mortuary rituals, with regard to the concept of gendercide.

Silk and Rifles: A Gender Analysis of Blockade Runner Cargos (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Emily A. Schwalbe.

This presentation examines the tension between nineteenth-century Southern gender expectations of upper-class femininity contrasted with the necessities of wartime. It will assess whether this tension is evident in the material record by analyzing the cargo of Confederate blockade runners entering the affluent ports of Wilmington and Charleston. By examining the cargo from blockade runners, as well as looking at historical records, this presentation will draw conclusions about what women wanted...


A Silk Purse from a Sow’s Ear: The History and Archeology of the Monumental Core in Washington, DC (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Charles H Leedecker.

The Monumental Core in the District of Columbia contains some of the nation’s most iconic landscapes, landmarks and memorials. The modern landscape bears little resemblance to the natural environment or the nineteenth-century city. For thousands of years, Native Americans camped along the bank of a tidal creek. After the City of Washington was established in 1790, the creek was transformed first into a canal, then a foul sewer that carried the city’s waste into the Potomac River.  Areas of open...

Similarities and Differences Between Upper Gila and Mimbres Valley Ceramics in Southwestern New Mexico (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Patricia Gilman. Jakob Sedig.

Although both the Mimbres and the Gila valleys are within the Mimbres region and are not far apart, they seem to have rather major differences in the numbers of rooms per room block, the numbers of room blocks per site, and the designs painted on Mimbres black-on-white pottery. In this poster, we report similarities and differences between Mimbres Valley (MV) and upper Gila/western Mimbres (UGWM) pottery designs. We start by defining and quantifying style elements seemingly more common in the...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Raven Garvey.

This is an abstract from the "Novel Statistical Techniques in Archaeology I (QUANTARCH I)" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Reconciling the archaeological record’s coarse grain with the person-to-person information exchanges central to cultural transmission (CT) models will allow us to better tap this powerful body of theory. Previous efforts at reconciliation demonstrated that within- and between-assemblage coefficients of variation (CV) are...

The Sinagua and the Western Pueblo Tradition: Perspectives from Bioarchaeology (2015)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Peter J. Pilles. Kimberly Spurr.

This poster discusses research using metric and nonmetric skeletal data and discrete skeletal...


The Single-Use Vessel: Reuse And Recycling In The Construction Of The Cuban Chug (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Zachary J Harris.

There is no singular theoretical model that explains the life cycle of the Cuban chug. Its creation as a single use vessel is singularly unique to boat construction. The vessel must be strong enough to withstand and ride the Florida Current, constructed of materials that are readily available to the average Cuban citizen, and be able to be transported and launched quickly to avoid detainment by Cuban authorities. Once a chug reaches the territorial waters of the United States its passengers will...


The Sinking of HMAS Sydney: Consequences and Memory (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Claire P. Phelan. Janet Adamski.

All hands on the Sydney were lost, a total of 635 men, one-third of the nation’s Navy. The fate of the Sydney has always remained controversial, due to the lack of survivors. Despite numerous attempts, investigators consistently failed to trace the wreckage of either ship until 2008, when the crew of SV Geosounder located both vessels, thus closing one of the most tragic...


Sisneros and Cisneros: Place-Based Community Development Among Hispanic Homesteaders in Northeast New Mexico (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Erin Hegberg.

In 2016 the Office of Contract Archeology surveyed 9,466 acres of private land in northeast New Mexico. The block survey included several entire homestead allotments belonging to Hispanic families between 1900 and 1940.
