In 2014, the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management’s Office of Renewable Energy Program (BOEM) signed a Cooperative Agreement with the South Carolina Sea Grant Consortium to explore potential Wind Energy Areas (WEA) offshore South Carolina’s portion of the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS). The aim of the project is to conduct geophysical and archaeological survey of seafloor 11-16 miles offshore North Myrtle Beach and Winyah Bay to explore the possibility of developing future WEAs. The project consists...

Florida has the largest collection of prehistoric dugout canoes in the world. The state also has a large collection of historic dugouts, some of which pose interesting challenges in terms of identification. In particular, one mysterious and distinctive historic dugout canoe type is exhibited in three examples from south Florida, one from the Everglades, another from the Florida Keys, and the last reportedly found near Key Biscayne. These canoes are characterized by a robust hull, carved thwart...

The US Southwest has attracted numerous adventurers and researchers since the mid-19th Century, including the three individuals noted in the title. Although more than 60 years passed between their respective journeys, their approaches to understanding native Southwest cultures were remarkably similar. Their work melded data and insights from ethnology, anthropology, history and historical documents, and archaeology. The later researchers could not have known when they began their journeys that...

This is an abstract from the "Advances in Interdisciplinary Isotopic Research" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Well-defined patterns in essential amino acid (AAESS) d13C values of autotrophs (plants and protists) and heterotrophs (bacteria and fungi) that can synthesize AAESS de novo provide enhanced discriminatory power to trace energy flow through freshwater and adjacent terrestrial foodwebs. This method may be useful for studying the impacts of...

Domestic space both reflects the social order and contributes to its construction. In early colonial New Mexico, houses and other architecture created arenas in which social interactions among Spanish colonizers and indigenous peoples played out and ethnogenesis took place. Moreover Spanish economic production was household based, occurring primarily at rural ranches and mission compounds; consequently, the built environment at households also framed economic activity. Here, we explore the...

This is an abstract from the "Constructing Bodies and Persons: Health and Medicine in Historic Social Context" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The nineteenth-century lunatic asylum was envisioned as a curative environment, which would administer salutary influences to the mind through the medium of sensory experience. Bucolic vistas and attractively furnished wards, calming music and freedom from the disturbing racket of urban life, appetizing...

This is an abstract from the "Archaeologies of Enslavement" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Places within plantation settlements were created differentially based partially on the geometric organization of settlement spaces. Place-making within settlement spaces impacted how enslaved people covertly and overtly displayed materials with African and Caribbean roots. GIS and R-generated thessian tessellations quantify the geometry of ten such spaces...

This is an abstract from the "Frontier and Settlement Archaeology" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Michilimackinac is well known as a French and British fur trade entrepôt in what is now northern Michigan. Analysis of personal adornment artifacts from a recently excavated fur trader's household revealed that the assemblage included some artifacts more commonly associated with the Spanish, jet beads and a fan stick fragment. Are these artifacts...

Report on archaeological investigations of two Spanish Colonial dams and associated irrigation canals (presas y acequias). The San Antonio de Valero begun in 1719 and the Labores de Arriba (or Upper Labor) begun in 1776. The Valero system supported irrigation for the eponymous Mission Pueblo. The Upper Labor system was for settlers in the Villa de San Fernando. Both systems have their headworks in the upper reach of the San Antonio River within the current Brackenridge Park. The Valero system...

The principal institutions of Spanish contact were, as elsewhere on the Spanish frontier, the mission, the mine, the hacienda, and the military. The mission contact situation, handled by the religious arm of Spanish administration, will be discussed more fully in later pages. The few sections that follow immediately here are an attempt to sketch some aspects of the non-mission aspects of seventeenth and eighteenth-century north Mexican society in order to give a more complete picture of the...

This paper discusses the purpose and meaning of markings found impressed into pottery vessels, beeswax blocks, or carved into silver bars and possibly other trade goods shipped aboard Spanish galleons between 1500-and 1800. The paper will discuss examples recoverd from shipwrecks from the trans-Atlantic and trans-Pacific trade, archival evidence and modern correlations.

This is an abstract from the "The Archaeologies of Contact, Colony, and Resistance" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Missions and indigenous villages are commonly investigated contexts of indigenous action in response to early years of Spanish colonialism in the American Southwest. In New Mexico, colonists’ households were also a venue for interaction and exchange of information between Pueblos and Spanish. Some models of colonial interactions have...

This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In 1626, a ship carrying adventurers to Jamestown, VA, was blown off course and abandoned at Nauset, MA. Another storm in 1863 exposed the putative bark, Sparrowhawk, the earliest European shipwreck found on Cape Cod. An Olympus Delta x-ray fluorescence instrument was used for elemental chemical analysis of artifacts from the wreckage, lumber used in ship construction, and sediment...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. As hunter-gatherer groups manufacture and rejuvenate stone tools at hunting and residential sites, they left behind traces of these behaviors in the form of spatial patterns of discarded lithic debris. GIS modelling of the spatial organization of debitage provides a useful tool for comparing lithic reduction episodes from various hunter-gatherer site types....

The colonial settlement of Hanna’s Town is a vital connection to Pennsylvania’s frontier history. The significance of the Hanna’s Town site to regional heritage is represented by the effort expended by the Westmoreland County Historical Society on archaeological and geophysical projects that have taken place at the site since 1969. However, after numerous investigations, questions remain about layout of the Hanna’s Town settlement. This proposal suggests a model for the investigation and...

The significance of the Hanna’s Town site to regional heritage is represented by the effort expended by the Westmoreland County Historical Society on archaeological and geophysical projects that have taken place at the site since 1969. However, after numerous investigations, not much is known about layout of the Hanna’s Town settlement. This paper will potentially demonstrate that specialized...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Las Canopas (AZ T:12:137[ASM]) is a large prehistoric Hohokam village located on the south side of the Salt River with the site being occupied from the Estrella phase of the Pioneer period (AD 650–675) to the Civano phase of the Classic period (AD 1300–1450). During recent Phase II excavations at the site by Chronicle Heritage, a total of 285 mortuary...
