Los Ojitos (LA 98907) is a Hispanic New Mexican site occupied between 1865 and 1950 on the Pecos River in eastern New Mexico. Excavators recovered micaceous brownware sherds alongside American goods in household deposits and refuse scatters surrounding historic structures. A single ceramic type encompasses all micaceous wares found in the region: Middle Pecos Micaceous Brownware, dating AD 800–1300. A lack of typological guidelines for distinguishing prehistoric and historic micaceous sherds...
Micaceous Mindsets: Chemical Characterization of Classic Period Utility Wares at Multiple Sites Along the Rio Grande (2024)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Micaceous utility wares are commonly found at Ancestral Pueblo villages along the Rio Grande and adjacent areas, yet they have received comparatively little attention relative to the contemporary well-studied glaze wares. Compositional studies show that glaze ware vessels and their ingredients were often transported across the landscape, driven by a mix of...

Micro Currencies Can Rapidly Appear Among Energy Maximizers: A Case Study from the Southern Sierra Nevada Foothills (2018)
A recent, large-scale archaeological investigation in the southern Sierra Nevada foothills revealed the development of a locally circumscribed steatite bead-making industry. Made from a local steatite source, these rough, thin, square beads are accompanied by the entire range of production debris and bead making tools, collectively dating to the post-Mission historic period. I argue these steatite beads represent a micro-currency developed as an energy maximizing response to decreased...
Micro-regional Archaeology Underwater: Approaches to Documenting Submerged Prehistoric Sites. (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Love That Dirty Water: Submerged Landscapes and Precontact Archaeology" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. It is now widely recognized that key portions of the global archaeological record can only be found underwater. While submerged prehistoric sites can yield crucial evidence and often preserve organic remains and other features rarely encountered on land, they pose unique challenges. To investigate these...

Microbes On A Seventeenth-Century Salted Beef Replica And Their Effects On Health (2018)
Seventeenth-century cookbooks, sailors’ records, and data from archaeological faunal remains were used to replicate salted beef for the Ship Biscuit & Salted Beef Research Project. Samples of salted beef and brine were taken out regularly and tested for microbes at the USDA Agricultural Research Service laboratory in College Station, Texas. Our team, using selective plating techniques, isolated the microbes for downstream DNA sequencing of the 16s rRNA gene. This paper presents the taxonomic...
Microbial Ecology of Gulf of Mexico Shipwrecks (2015)
Microbiomes associated with wooden and steel shipwrecks were investigated using next generation sequencing. Samples were derived from in situ biofilm monitoring platforms deployed for ~4 months, and sediment collected ~2-5 m from shipwrecks. The goal of the investigation is to determine rates of recruitment and community structure at sites located within and outside of areas impacted by the Deepwater Horizon spill (DWHS). Sediments will elucidate the influence of shipwrecks on the geochemistry...

Mid-19th-Century Irish-American Foodways in New York City: Evidence from the Five Points Site in Lower Manhattan (2013)
The Five Points Site was part of a multi-ethnic, working class neighbourhood located in lower Manhattan; the site was excavated by John Milner Associates in the 1990s. Claudia Milne and I identified and analysed the faunal remains from features associated with first generation Italian-Americans, Central European Jewish-Americans, and Irish-Americas. This presentation will focus on the faunal remains from the Irish-American contexts which date to the 1850s. Analyses based on species and body...
Mid-20th century colonialism in Nigeria: Exploring the Impact of Archaeology and Museums during the final years of the British Empire in West Africa (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In 1953, three colonial archaeologists would perform extensive fieldwork in the sacred city of Ile-Ife, Nigeria. In cooperation with the Ooni (King) of the city, the researchers embarked on a mission to acquire and understand the resplendent artworks of Ile-Ife, revive and reinvent aspects of the city's cultural heritage, and develop a new museum to centralise the discoveries being...
Mid-Nineteenth Century Clay Smoking Pipes From Fort Hoskins And Fort Yamhill, Oregon (2018)
Soldiers stationed at two remote Pacific Northwest military forts, Fort Hoskins (1856-1865) and Fort Yamhill (1856-1866), Oregon, led a monotonous life in the wet, dreary western Oregon coastal mountain range. The repetitive nature of military life for these men was relieved by what was considered at the time a pleasure and a distraction, the smoking pipe. Fortunately for these soldiers it was the peak of European and American manufacture of clay smoking pipes in variety, quality and artistry....

Middle Archaic Period Settlement Patterns and Subsistence Strategies in the lower Salt River Valley of Arizona (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Archaic period sites are rare in the lower Salt River Valley of south-central Arizona. Logan Simpson Design recently identified two middle Archaic period sites on the Holocene floodplain of the Salt River. Evidence suggests that the two sites were short-term riparian resource procurement and processing locales that were protected from flooding (and...
