Seneca Village: The Making and Un-making of a Distinctive 19th-Century Place on the Periphery of New York City (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Meredith B. Linn. Nan A. Rothschild. Diana Wall.

In the late 1820s and in the shadow of emancipation in New York State, several African Americans purchased land in what is now Manhattan’s Upper West Side. Pushed by racial oppression and unsanitary conditions downtown and pulled by the prospects of a healthier, freer life and property ownership, they were joined by other members of the African diaspora and built an important Black middle-class community, likely active in the abolitionist movement. The city removed the villagers from their land...

Senkan no Aki no Tsuki: Interpreting Depictions of the Landscape at WWII Heart Mountain Camp (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Clara Steussy.

This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Creative and artistic works provided an important outlet for the 120,000 Japanese Americans confined during World War II. Many of these works incorporate depictions of the natural world. I will investigate the ways in which these depictions were influenced by the natural environment surrounding the camp established at Heart Mountain, and what those influences can tell us about how...

Sensory Perspectives on Maize and Identity Formation in Colonial New England (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Karen B. Metheny.

Food is not just a source of nutrition or the result of chemistry, but a complex sensory experience that can be linked to the creation, transformation, and maintenance of identity. My examination of the role of maize in the lives of colonial New Englanders is grounded in an understanding of 17th-century English culinary practice, close reading of printed and handwritten cookbooks and recipes, and recreation of maize-based foods using period recipes and cooking technology. A study of the sensory...

A Sequence of French Vernacular Architectural Design and Construction Methods in Colonial North America, 1690-1850 (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Wade Tharp.

This study examines published and unpublished historical archaeological research, historical documents research, and datable extant buildings to develop a temporal and geographical sequence of French colonial architectural designs and construction methods, particularly the poteaux-en-terre (posts-in-ground) and poteaux-sur-solle (posts-on-sill) elements in vernacular buildings, from the Western Great Lakes region to Louisiana, dating from 1690 to 1850. Whether European colonists during the...

Sequencing Termination Events: Preparing Hearths for the Ritual Decommissioning of Ancestral Pueblo Pit Structures in the Northern U.S. Southwest (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Susan Ryan.

With the development of a detailed contextual archaeology, we have gained the ability to identify how termination behaviors are related by subtle linkages in time and space. Individual actions that take place within the various portions of a structure are temporally distinct events, but are contextually related via ultimate decommissioning objectives. Each individual behavior qualified the meaning of those that preceded or followed it. Using multiple ancestral Pueblo sites in the Mesa Verde...

The Serenity Farm African American Burial Ground (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Julie Schablitsky.

The Maryland State Highway Administration had an opportunity to delineate and research an unmarked African American burial ground in southern Maryland. Prior to exploring the site, archaeologists reached out to a local descendent community in Charles County who agreed to speak for their ancestors. Throughout the project, archaeologists and the African American community shared in the discovery of the people buried in unmarked graves on the Smith Farm between ca. 1790 and ca. 1810. Forensic and...

Serious Miracles: Semiotic Battlefields of the Spanish Reconquista in 17th Century New Mexico (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Matthew Liebmann.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Historical Memory, Archaeology, And The Social Experience Of Conflict and Battlefields" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Miraculous stories are as common to the battlefield as weapons and shields. Whether in the form of saintly interventions in combat, victory despite overwhelming odds, or religious iconography protecting the virtuous, warriors have reported miracles on the field of battle throughout time...

Sermons in stone (2006)

Served on a Pueblo Soup Plate: Food Preparation, Serving, and Identity in Early Colonial New Mexico (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Adam Brinkman.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Spanish colonists living on estancias and missions in 17th century New Mexico used Pueblo Indian produced goods for their much of their daily practice. This included the use of sandstone cooking griddles, ceramic serving bowls, cooking jars, and soup plates. While the use of Indigenous ceramics in Spanish households has received a significant amount of...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Kristi Miller Nichols. Steve A. Tomka.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Plus Ultra: An examination of current research in Spanish Colonial/Iberian Underwater and Terrestrial Archaeology in the Western Hemisphere." , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. As archaeologists prepared for current excavations associated with the Church and Convento at Mission San Antonio de Valero (41BX6) in San Antonio, Texas, previous archaeological and archival research was revisited to piece together...

Setting Boundaries: Identifying the Homes of Enslaved Field Workers at James Madison's Montpelier (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Christine H Heacock. Matthew Reeves.

During the 2012-2013 field season, the Montpelier Archaeology Department excavated the remains of houses occupied by field workers on the Madison plantation . These structures were not built using sub-surface methods that would leave direct architectural evidence. In the absence of post- in- hole construction or foundations, the determination of building boundaries can be quite challenging for archaeologists. Drawing on the evidence from Montpelier and other examples lacking features directly...

Setting Things Right: Indigenous Archaeology in Sonora, México (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Randall McGuire.

Larry Zimmerman taught us how to do Indigenous archaeology. He told us do not rob graves or lick bones, to ask questions that Indigenous people need answered, to put aside academic capital, to collaborate, to be radical, to listen, to be humble and to atone for the transgressions of our discipline. Such a transgression occurred in the Sierra Mazatan of Sonora, México. In 1902, a party of Yaqui warriors freed hundreds of enslaved Yaquis from haciendas near Hermosillo, and they sought refuge in...

Settlement and Subsistence at the Headwaters of Silver Creek, Western Arizona (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Scott Yost. R. E. Burrillo. Harland Ash.

This is an abstract from the "Recent Archaeological Research by PaleoWest" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Silver Creek drainage in north-central Arizona was a focal point of Ancestral Pueblo population aggregation in the late thirteenth century during a time in which the nearby Colorado Plateau was all but depopulated. With a few notable exceptions, most of the masonry pueblos and villages in the greater Silver Creek area were subsequently...

Settlement Clusters: A Different Way of Conceptualizing Community (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Patrick Cruz.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Velarde Valley of the Northern Rio Grande, New Mexico, has received only limited attention from researchers. The area is known to have been home to several Classic Period Tewa communities, some of which were inhabited right up to the time of Juan de Onate’s settlement of San Gabriel in A.D. 1598. The area is also dense with historic and modern...

A Settlement Pattern Analysis of Yavapai and Apache Archaeological Sites in the Verde Valley Area, Central Arizona (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Linda Neff. Ted Neff. Peter Pilles. Ronald Krug.

Ethnohistoric accounts, historic records, and the archaeological record indicate the Yavapai and Northern Tonto Apache lived a mobile lifestyle during Protohistoric time (approximately A.D. 1300 - 1850) across the diverse environment of the Verde Valley area of Central Arizona, just south of the Colorado Plateau. Due to their subtle, portable, perishable, expedient, and reused material traces across the landscape, archaeologists struggle to merely identify protohistoric sites much less...

Settlement Patterns and Land Use on the Shivwits Plateau: Insights from a Cultural Resources Inventory on the Grand Canyon-Parashant National Monument (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Emily Jonsson. Caitlin Stewart.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Archaeological research on Virgin Branch Puebloan groups has primarily focused on the Moapa Valley and lowland Virgin areas, despite widespread occupation across modern-day southern Nevada, southwestern Utah, and northwestern Arizona.
