Usable Aid: Refugee Resettlement in Post-Partition Delhi (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Erin P Riggs.

This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Previous archaeologies of socialism and the welfare state demonstrate how spaces designed by centralized authorities are often incongruent with the needs of individuals. This paper considers 1947 Partition refugee resettlement in Delhi as a contrasting example, one that exemplifies the potential effectiveness of government investment in public housing. Delhi’s colonies are unique...

Use Of Electronic Diver Positioning In A Challenging Marine Archaeological Environment (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Andrew D. W. Lydecker.

An important consideration in the excavation of an archaeological site is spatial control. Establishing provenience is particularly challenging in a harsh environment such as the Savannah River, where black water, high current, limited dive windows, safety constraints, and limited budgets do not allow traditional archaeological methods to achieve success in a project with the scope of the excavation and recovery of the CSS Georgia. The nature of the Savannah River environment dictates a more...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Bill Auchter.

An examination of an antebellum plantation in Prince George’s County, Maryland can be a case study into how to see a subaltern group (slaves) living within a dominant culture. To do this, three entities will be examined: a place, a slaveholder, and a slave. How are these three elements related and interdependent upon each other as a means to understand the elements individually and as a social group? All three elements occupied the same time and space but would often be described as three...

Thriving shell ornament manufacturing industries in...

The Use of X-Ray Fluorescence to Determine the Composition of American Glassware Artifacts: Analytical Methods and Chronological Insights (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Grace L. Gronniger.

The compositional analysis of American glass has untapped potential to shed light on the chronologies of historical archaeological deposits. This is due to a 1864 patent, which introduced the use of soda-lime glass to U.S. pressed glass manufacturers. By 1880, soda-lime glass displaced lead glass in this industry. Therefore, pressed glass tableware produced before 1864 contains lead, whereas pressed glass tableware produced after ca. 1879 largely lacks lead. This study demonstrates the use of...

Using a Landscape Approach: Case Studies in Section 110 Compliance in Military Installations. (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Kimberly Smith.

Per Section 110 of the NHPA, federal institutions, including military installations, are required to identify and manage the cultural resources found therein. Funding to meet this requirement is typically limited and awarded within a yearly budget, allowing for disjointed surveys from one year to the next. The result is often recommendations based on a singular viewpoint of a site rather than a true reflection of the information the site can provide based on the regional setting and temporal...

Using Assimilationist Tools to Refashion Cultural Landscapes: Allotment on the Grand Ronde Reservation (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Ian Kretzler.

The General Allotment (Dawes) Act of 1887 was passed amid mounting criticism that the federal reservation system was failing to assimilate Native Americans into Euro-American society. On reservations, Native communities grappled with the traumas of dispossession, violence, and food shortages, but they also possessed a degree of freedom to maintain cultural practices and identities. The Dawes Act was designed to terminate these lifeways by tethering Native families to privately owned plots,...

Using Autonomous Underwater Vehicles for Locating and Surveying Battle of the Atlantic Shipwrecks off the Coast of North Carolina (2015)
