For three summers, the Shaker Historical Society has been sponsoring a community-based archaeology experience primarily geared for elementary and middle-school aged children. Excavations at two local historical sites have helped to teach these students about their local history, and the importance of archaeology and preservation in their own communities. In this paper we highlight the work we have done, and the outcomes for our students and the larger preservation work it generated in the...
Practicing Indigenous Data Sovereignty On and Off Picuris Pueblo Lands (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Collaborative Archaeology at Picuris Pueblo: The New History" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Over the past decade, a growing number of archaeological projects in North America have incorporated community-based participatory research (CBPR) methods. For Indigenous communities, this collaborative paradigm marks an extension of a more global body of anti-colonial activism and policymaking oriented around Indigenous...

Praxis Communities and Uneven Development: Some Ideas on Maroons, Indigenous Americans, and Hobos (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Historical Archaeology of Capitalism’s Cracks" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. When thinking about ways to explore the American past with the goal of developing radical progressive ways of moving forward into our own histories, the specific perspectives we use and the people we study matter. In my interrogations of the lives of Maroons and Indigenous Americans of the Great Dismal Swamp (VA and NC), and,...
Prayer for Relief: Archeological Excavations within a Portion of the Columbian Harmony Cemetery (Site 51NE049), Washington, D.C. (2016)
The Columbian Harmony Cemetery was established in the mid-19th century to serve the District’s African American community and continued in use until 1960 when approximately 37,000 burials were exhumed and remains were re-interred in the National Harmony Memorial Park in Landover, Maryland. However, the burial removal process at Columbian Harmony Cemetery was not complete; not all burials were exhumed and re-interred. Headstones and other cemetery monuments, entire coffins, coffin fragments and...
Pre- and Post-Katrina Excavations of Charity Hospital Cemeteries: A Window into the Structural Violence of Mid-19th to Early 20th Century New Orleans (2018)
Charity Hospital, established in New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1736, was one of the longest running public hospitals in the United States, finally closing its doors in 2005 following Hurricane Katrina. During the period from 1847 through 1929, two cemetery sites—one located on Canal Street and one on Canal Boulevard—were used for the interment of many indigents treated at the hospital. Excavations of these sites, most of which occurred after Hurricane Katrina and some directly as a result of the...
A Pre-Base History of Randolph Air Force Base in the Cibolo Valley, Texas, 1690-1928 (1998)
This pre-base history describes the area of the Cibolo Valley, Texas where the Randolph Air Force Base is located. Influenced by the development of the city of San Antonio (approximately 18 miles to the southwest), the land was crossed by Spanish explorers, by herders who supplied the Spanish missions, by travelers along the Camino Real, and by speculators in Mexican land grants and Texas land claims. Intense use occurred around the middle of the nineteenth century, first by ranchers, and,...
Pre-Ceramic Subsistence Patterns in the Great Plains (1952)
Suggested sequence of Pre-Ceramic subsistence patterns in the Great Plains Area (circa 9000 B.C. - 1000 A.D.).
The Pre-Ceramic Subsistence Patterns in the Great Plains (1952)
In this document, Richard P Wheeler synthesizes in chart form knowledge of Early Man – or rather of pre-pottery making men – in the Plains area according to inferable subsistence patterns, in chronological order. On this level of anthropological abstraction, the task was not difficult because of the scarcity of known information. Wheeler’s perspective also includes a brief history of the development of American paleontology.
Pre-Columbian Agaves in the Southwestern United States: Discovering Lost Crops among the Hohokam and other Arizona Cultures (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Frontiers of Plant Domestication" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The importance of agaves to Mesoamerica and its cultures has long been recognized, providing food, fiber and beverage. However, their significance to these cultures has overshadowed and distorted the plants’ role for indigenous peoples north of the U.S. - Mexico border. Pre-Columbian farmers grew no less than six and possibly as many as eight or more...
Pre-Contact Land Use of the Gallinas Mountains, Lincoln County, New Mexico (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. SWCA Environmental Consultants is conducting heritage resource surveys across 4,388 acres of lands managed by the Cibola National Forest. These surveys will aid the U.S. Forest Service and the Claunch-Pinto Soil and Water Conservation District of Mountainair, New Mexico, in completing landscape-level treatments designed to protect an unburned forested...
Precontact Domestic Dogs in the Moapa Valley (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Archaeology of the Virgin Branch Puebloan Region" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Since the domestication of the dog (Canis familiaris), they have been granted various roles within human society. Because of the often close relationship with people, domestic dogs were often given similar burial customs as people. Precontact dog burials have been recovered throughout many regions in North America. Although some of these...
Prediction of Human Remains Distribution within WWII Bombardment Aircraft Crash Sites (2017)
Examination of eight WWII bombardment aircraft loss incidents previously resolved by the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) has allowed for the creation of a model that predicts where human remains can be expected to be recovered from within a crash scene based upon each crew member’s duty station. This paper details where each individual was found in relation to the aircraft wreckage at the crash sites, including those criteria for a case to be included in the model and how hypotheses...

Prehispanic Copper Artifacts Found in the Gila National Forest (2021)
This is an abstract from the "Research Hot Off the Trowel in the Upper Gila and Mimbres Areas" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The discovery of a prehispanic copper artifact on a Classic Mimbres site in the Gila National Forest in southwestern New Mexico in 2009 initiated an archaeological investigation to determine if more prehispanic copper artifacts existed in the Mimbres area. This preliminary investigation involved surveying a small sample of...
