Working Plantations on Sapelo Island: High Point Versus Chocolate (2008)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Nicholas Honerkamp.

Back-to-back archaeological surveys on Sapelo Island, Georgia by the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga have concentrated on two sites: a substantial, intensively occupied plantation dating primarily to the first half of the 19th century (Chocolate) and an earlier, sporadically occupied operation that included a short-lived French component (High Point). This paper compares the archaeological manifestations of slave occupations at both sites and identifies distinct material contrasts...


Working Side-By-Side at the Grassroots Level: the Role of the Non-Profit and Avocationalist (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only stacy poulos.

Often, archaeological endeavors are sparked by one lone man or woman in the community driven by an avocational interest in their cultural heritage. This paper discusses how fostering relationships between multiple non-profits (archaeological/historical societies) and encouraging avocational involvement can revitalize the discipline of archaeology on a local to national level. The collaboration of multiple non-profits in archaeological endeavors has become a common practice in recent years as...

This investigation of historical ceramics is conducted on a collection that dates from 1886 to 1915. Saenger Pottery Works was in operation from c.a.1885 through c.a. 1915. The size, form, and function variability of the ceramics inform about production techniques used and what forms are preferred over others.

DOCUMENT Citation Only Eric C. Drake.

Recent historical analyses of American Indians and wage labor have sought to challenge the "traditional" versus "modernist" dichotomy that has long shaped narratives of Anishinaabe labor history in the Upper Great Lakes.  This paper discusses how collaborative research, involving the archaeological investigation of logging camps and mill sites in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, has aided in challenging the assumptions underlying this narrative form.  More specifically, this paper explores the...


Working Together to Save Our Culture: Creating a Tribal Register of Historical Places (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Robert O'Boyle. Erich Longie. Dianne Desrosiers.

Not long ago, the Spirit Lake Oyate and Sisseton Wahpeton Oyate were a single band, part of the Dakota Nation, living in the homeland we had occupied for millennia.

Today, we are working together to bring our people back together based on the places that matter the most. Together the Spirit Lake Tribe and the...

This is an abstract from the "Cooperative Bodies: Bioarchaeology and Non-ranked Societies" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

Silver and gold were the accepted forms of currency because with the runaway inflation copper coins were of...
