This is an abstract from the session entitled "Historical Archaeology in the Indian Ocean" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Starting in the late fifteenth century, Iberian sailors plied deeply into Atlantic and Indian Ocean networks of exchange. They brought with them notions of Western European cities and city life. In turn, they built trading enclaves that referenced the plans, designs, and aesthetics of European urban spaces. This paper summarizes new...

Stoneware has long been held by archaeologists as a problematic artifact category.  Stoneware is troublesome to date with any precision, difficult to source, and decidedly less flashy than even the most pedestrian porcelains.  However, a study of the stonewares from the Manila galleon wreck site Baja California, in the form of sherds from large utilitarian storage jars, is an opportunity for gaining additional knowledge about the contents of a ship that, in the late sixteenth century, was in the...

In late 1861 and early 1862 Union naval blockading forces sank a total of twenty-nine whaling and merchant vessels laden with stones at the entrances to the two main channels at Charleston Harbor, South Carolina.  The navy intended for these underwater obstructions to prevent the passage of Confederate blockade runners from entering and exiting the port city.  The two stone fleets did not result in the desired effect wished for by Union strategists, but the historical and archaeological record...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Archaeology and Analysis of the Belvoir Quarter" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The discovery and excavation of a brick and stone slave quarter provides a rare opportunity to study an artifact assemblage produced from the preparation and consumption of meals prepared by, and for, an enslaved community. This paper will present the types of vessels and decorations represented in the thousands of ceramics...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Revolutionizing Approaches to Campus History - Campus Archaeology's Role in Telling Their Institutions' Stories" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. When Leland and Jane Stanford bought the Mayfield Grange property in 1876, it was as a country home. Little was done to the house that had been built by George Gordon in 1864 until 1888, after the death of their only child, Leland Stanford, Jr., when extensive...

ESRI Story Maps are a new strategy for combining geographic information with text, images and multimedia content in an easily shareable web interface.  The technique is especially useful for presenting historic archaeology to the public, as archaeological and archival data can be juxtaposed to present a more complete story.  In this presentation we will exhibit the story map created for the Beech Grove area of the Mill Springs Battlefield and discuss its potential as a public archaeology tool. ...

As the repository and institutional memory of the U.S. Navy, the Naval History and Heritage Command (NHHC) preserves, analyzes, and disseminates historically and culturally relevant resources and products that reflect the Navy's enduring contributions throughout our nation's history. Unique to the Navy among the Department of Defense, the Navy's history program, library, archives, collections, and museums are combined into one Command. Initially, the Underwater Archaeology Branch (UAB) began...

For the past two decades, archaeologists have worked to engage members of the public in archaeological research, preservation, and interpretation. Because of the huge variety in the types of publics engaged in these projects and the approaches of the archaeologists running them, we are continually refining our methods of public archaeology implementation, execution, and evaluation. Despite this variety, we rarely hear directly from program participants. For this panel we have invited public...

This is an abstract from the "Chicanx Archaeology" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. As the oldest center of Hispano/Mexicano culture in the United States, northern New Mexico offers a unique view into this culture’s presence in what is now the continental United States. Due to the centuries-long isolation of the region and the relatively dense population of Spanish speakers, northern New Mexico’s four hundred year-old Hispano/Mexicano culture...

Bird remains are seldom abundant in archaeological assemblages in the Mimbres region of southwest New Mexico. Despite their relatively low frequency, many of the occurrences of bird remains in this area are derived from interesting or unusual archaeological contexts, and provide a wealth of information on cultural practices and local and regional environmental conditions. This study examines data from over 70 archaeological assemblages from the upper Gila area and elsewhere in the Mimbres...

Petersburg, Virginia, is known for the mine explosion that destroyed a Confederate fort and initiated the Battle of the Crater.  This was not the only mining effort on the siege line.  Even before the July 30, 1864, explosion, the Confederate defenders of Petersburg constructed countermines in places where the terrain was susceptible to underground enemy approaches.  The use of LIDAR imagery, map and photographic analysis, documentary research and field survey has revealed two extensive sets of...

Archaeologists have been early adopters of digital technologies relative to other heritage-related professions. But how often are their online communications initiatives informed by audience-based strategic intention? The pervasiveness of online tools makes engagement ever easier, and as a result, a less meaningful measure of influence. Conversely, planning for digital communications is often an uncomfortable and intensive process that results in more effective online initiatives by clarifying...

This is an abstract from the "Constructing Chronologies I: Stratification and Correlation" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This paper discusses the stratigraphic chronology for the Las Capas site in the Tucson Basin, southern Arizona. Las Capas was inhabited by early farmers during the Late Archaic/Early Agricultural period (EAP), which dates from about 2100 cal BC to cal AD 50. Maize and canal irrigation were introduced during this interval....

The myth of the "Southern gentleman" permeates the modern imagination of the historic American South. This archetype is simultaneously "other" and "normative": the concept is saturated in an air of mystery and deep, foreign tradition, yet is often set against studies of traditional American "others" such as women, immigrants, and enslaved peoples. Recent excavations at Graham Hall, an all-male antebellum dormitory on Washington & Lee University’s campus in Lexington, VA, have uncovered a rich,...

The last few years has seen a rise in the development of tools and technology that enable the collection of archaeological data directly into electronic formats using handheld devices such as tablets and smartphones. These applications not only eliminate traditional paper collection issues but also decrease in-field collection errors and reduce post-processing times. This poster will focus on the utilization of Petroglyph, an application specifically developed for the first phase of a research...

Popular music heritage holds a meaningful place in public memory and in the construction of social identities. Sites associated with musical legacies that have significant meaning to a community are often memorialized to emphasize their connection with a particular place. This paper explores the relationship between music, heritage, and placemaking in the historic African-American neighborhood of West Baltimore, where decades of racism, economic decline, and failed urban-renewal plans have...

Ship's bells have long held the fascination of laypeople and scholars alike. Despite this fascination, little information is known about the earleist ship's bells from the 14th through the end of the 17th century. While numerous archaeological examples do exist, these either lack provenance, are fragmented, or do not follow a standarized method for analysis, making diagnostic comparisons exceedingly difficult or impossible. Recognizing this problem, the authors have undertaken the creation of a...
