On the East Coast of North America, nodules of flint often are encountered in ballast piles. Many archaeologists assert an ability to identify visually when these are of European origin. While, anecdotally, this appears to be generally true, most archaeologists cannot articulate the specific factors they employ in making the identification. This project, which builds on Barbara Luedtke’s 1992 work, examines geological terminology, tests the visual identification assertion, and employs XRF and...

The first ale, “She’s a Beaut,” drew inspiration from the Black Drink to...
The Flow of Lithic Production: Debitage Analysis in the Mogollon Highlands, AD550-1000 (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Late Pithouse Period (AD550-1000) was a time of significant material development and social change in the Mogollon region of southwestern New Mexico. Intensive research has been devoted to explaining these changes. These approaches have resulted in a wealth of data concerning architecture, site layout, ceramic design, and incipient hierarchical social...

The plethora of colorful murals on buildings, stone statues, lyrics and sounds of calypso and reggae music, small fishing boats and folklore expand the maritime historical narrative. Themes include dramatic stories about shipwrecks and survivors, nature conservation debates, earthquakes, local wildlife, and fishing adventures. The ECU maritime studies team will present an...
Follow the Pictorial Path: Assessing Rock Imagery and Human Movement at Chaco Canyon (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Interdisciplinary Approaches to Rock Art Documentation, Research, and Analysis" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. A core principle of professional archaeology is the preservation and consideration of context. For studies of rock imagery, this necessitates documenting the context of panels in relationship to the larger cultural landscape. Using landscape theory, I assess the placement of petroglyphs and pictographs at...
Following the Drinking Gourd: Considering the Celestial Landscape (2018)
The world of enslaved African Americans included not only the solid ground beneath their feet and other physical landmarks, but also the sky above them, replete with planets and stars. In a world without maps, compasses or, in many instances, the ability to read directions, the enslaved were dependent upon visual cues for making their way through the landscape. Oral traditions and historical documents reveal that planets and constellations were important guides for finding one’s way,...
Following the Fiber: Agave Tools from Cropping to Crafting (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Textile Tools and Technologies as Evidence for the Fiber Arts in Precolumbian Societies" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Hohokam farmers of southern Arizona grew agave for food, fiber, and probable alcoholic beverages in distinctive and widely preserved fields on dry slopes that were dedicated to this major succulent crop. Specialized tools from Hohokam agricultural and residential contexts allow us to track agave...
Following the Pattern: Using Transferprints to Refine 19th Century Site Chronologies (2018)
Refining site chronologies on predominantly nineteenth century sites is a goal of many historical archaeologists. This paper analyzes transferprint colors and identified patterns recovered from Andrew Jackson’s The Hermitage plantation as one analytical solution. The dataset consists of thousands of sherds excavated from yard spaces and structures built when Jackson acquired the property in 1804, in an area known as the First Hermitage. Using the same approach outlined in the DAACS Hermitage...

This is an abstract from the "The Elemental Analysis Facility at the Field Museum: Celebrating 20 Years Serving the Archaeological Community " session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Adair-Steadman Folsom site (41FS2) functioned as a lithic workshop and campsite between 10,800 and 10,300 RCYBP and is situated ~5 km away from an Edwards chert quarry (41FS12) in the Southern Plains. This research aims to determine potential sources of Edwards chert...
Folsom Projectile Technology: An Experiment in Design, Effectiveness, and Efficiency (2008)
J. Whittaker: Used 25 F points replicated by Patten (80 counting reuse after damage and reshaping), hafted 5 ways, fired with crossbow at 30-35 m/s perpendicularly into beef carcass ribs. Foreshafts on 220 cm, 240 gm shafts to simulate atlatl. Fluting helps hafting - easier to fit convex foreshaft notch interior to flute surface than usual concave notch interior to lenticular point, but labor intensive. Hafted to full length of flutes. Foreshaft types all performed similarly regarding break...
Folsom Technological Organization at the Martin Site, Central New Mexico (2019)
This is an abstract from the "The Paleoindian Southwest" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

Previous studies have noted a preponderance of Edwards chert in the assemblage, sourced to over 600 km away in west central Texas, as well as an emphasis on...
Food and a Frontier Community: History and Faunal Analysis on Samuel H. Smith Site in Nauvoo, Illinois (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Frontier and Settlement Archaeology" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.
