Finding The Indigenous – A Study Of Locally Made Earthenware In Early Spanish Manila, The Philippines (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Ellen Hsieh.

The Spanish colonists created the first urban landscape in the Manila area during the late 16th century and certainly changed the lives of the Tagalog people. Although the ethnic-based residential policy makes it possible to compare lives of different groups in the colonial society, there are no archaeological sites representing indigenous settlements in the early colonial period to date. This paper shows that locally made earthenware found in non-indigenous settlements sheds light on the...

Finding the Mikveh: Using technology to confirm oral histories at an early 20th century site in Portsmouth, New Hampshire (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only E. Nadia Kline.

During the summer of 2014, a group of archaeologists, volunteers, and students excavated at a former house site at Strawbery Banke Museum in Portsmouth, NH. Archaeological excavation was undertaken with the goal of locating a mikveh (Jewish ritual bath) in the basement. Physical evidence of this important component of Jewish community life and ethnic identity was undocumented, and the only proof of its existence was from oral histories. A former resident of the house still living in Portsmouth...

Finding the Russian Village at Fort Ross: GPR and Magnetometer Survey (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Glenn J. Farris.

At the Russian American Company settlement of Fort Ross on the California Coast was a village housing a vibrant community of Russians, Native Californians, Native Alaskans, and Creoles. Using a drawing of the village made in 1841, along with various visitors’ accounts and inventories of the settlement, we are able to reconstruct a partial image of this community. However, in order to locate the old village on the ground, a composite research group of students and professors from UC Berkeley,...

Fine-Grained Chronology Reveals Human Impacts on Animal Populations in the Mesa Verde Region of the American Southwest (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jonathan Driver. Karen Schollmeyer.

This is an abstract from the "Research, Education, and American Indian Partnerships at the Crow Canyon Archaeological Center" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In the central Mesa Verde region a combination of numerous excavations and precise chronological control allows us to group selected faunal assemblages into time periods that represent only a few human generations. We examine fauna from eight time periods spanning approximately 700 years in a...

Fine-Scale Investigation of Changes in the Ceramic Production Using Sherd Temper in the Mt. Trumbull Area of the Grand Canyon Parashant National Monument, Arizona (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Sachiko Sakai.

This is an abstract from the "Ceramics and Archaeological Sciences" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This study is a part of an investigation into the adaptation patterns among the small-scale farmers who lived in a very marginal environment in the American Southwest. The examination of the changes in the ceramic production and distribution in the Mt. Trumbull and adjacent areas was conducted using LA-ICP-MS and optically stimulated luminescence...

"Finery and Small Comforts": The intersection of gender, consumerism, and slavery in nineteenth century Virginia (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Lori Lee.

In the context of enslavement, supply constrained individual expression and consumer choice at varying scales. Within a plantation household, supply took the form of provisions selected by the master for enslaved laborers. At the scale of local markets and stores, supply and variable adherence to laws constrained which goods were available to slaves who were able to purchase or trade for them. In this paper, I synthesize historical and archaeological evidence to consider how supply and...

Finest Fare: Faunal Analysis of the Glen Eyrie Midden Assemblages (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Shannon Landry.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "The Glen Eyrie Middens: Recent Research into the Lives of General William Jackson and Mary Lincoln “Queen” Palmer and their Estate in Western Colorado Springs, Colorado." , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Excavations at two middens associated with the Glen Eyrie Estate (sites 5EP7334 and 5EP7352) have yielded a robust assemblage of well-preserved faunal remains. Represented taxa include a...

Finite Element Modelling of the Wreck of USS Arizona (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Tim Foecke.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Hard Science on Hard Steel: Scientific Studies of the USS Arizona" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Finite element modeling (FEM) is a method for predicting the stresses in a body under load. We are building a model of USS Arizona to use as a conservation tool - a virtual way of predicting future degradation and trying out conservation schemes. Results will be shown of initial modeling efforts and how we...

This is an abstract from the "Archaeologies of the Eastern Jemez Mountain Range and the Pajarito Plateau: Interagency Collaboration for Management of Cultural Landscapes" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Southwest Jemez Mountain Landscape Restoration project located in the Jemez Ranger District of the Santa Fe National Forest in New Mexico encompasses approximately 116,000 acres. To increase resilience against undesirable, large-scale fires, a...

Fire on the Mountain: The Use of Earth Ovens for Agave and Pinyon Processing in the Sheep Range, NV (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Spencer Lodge.

This is an abstract from the "Hot Rocks in Hot Places: Investigating the 10,000-Year Record of Plant Baking across the US-Mexico Borderlands" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Hot-rock technology was an integral aspect of prehistoric life in modern day southern Nevada. The utility of earth oven use is exemplified in the Sheep Range, located 20 miles north of Las Vegas, where more than 200 earth oven facilities have been documented across six...

Fire, Ash and Sanctuary: Pyrotechnology as Protection in the Pre-Colonial Northern Rio Grande (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Michael Adler.

Ash deposits are commonly associated with site disuse and termination deposits across the Ancestral Pueblo region of the American Southwest. This paper contextualizes the use of fire, and fire-related products, as part of a larger suite of practices employed to protect past, present and future occupants of villages from malevolent "others" across the pre-colonial northern Rio Grande region.
