This is an abstract from the "Maritime Transportation, History, and War in the 19th-Century Americas" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The barque Vicar of Bray, built in1844, was a substantially intact hulk utilized for storage and then as a breakwater both in Stanley and finally at Goose Green in the Falkland Islands. It was one of more than a dozen "intact" 19th and early 20th century wood, iron and steel vessels that formed part of a unique...

A View from Above: The Dynamic Human Landscapes of the East Mountains (2023)
This is an abstract from the "Hill People: New Research on Tijeras Canyon and the East Mountains" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The diverse natural and social environments of the uplands east of Albuquerque have shaped equally diverse and overlapping human landscapes. In this paper, a variety of geospatial analyses are employed to trace the dimensions of East Mountain settlement through time, beginning with the region’s early farming communities...
A View from Phase II: Evaluations of Post-bellum African American Sites on Mulberry Island, Joint Base Langley-Eustis, City of Newport News, Virginia (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Over 230 archaeological sites have been recorded at Joint Base Langley-Eustis in Tidewater Virginia, and most famously include early colonial occupations and Civil War fortifications on Mulberry Island. However, a growing body of cultural resource management work has shed light on the development of a rural post-bellum African American community of farmsteads and tenants on the...
Viewing Ceramic "Types," "Varieties," and "Modes" from a Practice-Based Perspective: Case Studies from the Greater Southwest (2018)
As a student of Jimmy Griffin and Irving Rouse, much of Stephen Williams’ early archaeological research involved the typological analysis of pottery collections from the American Southeast to reconstruct regional culture history. Later, as Director of the Peabody Museum, he played an important role in facilitating the development of a new generation of archaeological and materials science approaches to pottery analysis at Harvard with the construction of the Putnam Laboratory. This paper uses...

Villages on the Edge of the Edge: Reflections on the Changing Economics of Irish Coastal Communities (2016)
Island village communities are both physically detached from, and connected with, mainland urban and foreign economic communities. In the context of 19th to 20th century Irish fishing communities, landlords owned entire islands and ran them as economic enterprises. On the Connemara islands of Inishark, Inishbofin, and Inishturk, tenants often lived in close physical proximity to each other, in villages of a hundred or more people, paying rent to the landlord in exchange for use of stone...
Violence, Silence and Four Truths in American Historical Memory (2018)
Just days before I wrote this abstract, the city of New Orleans finished removing four monuments to the Confederacy and the Lost Cause, inspiring other cities to consider the same. This example of people taking control of the narrative inscribed in their own landscape serves as backdrop to this session in which we reflect on the changing nature of place-based historical memory. I consider the changing nature of America and what it means to be a society that appears to be moving away from a...
Violent Conflict and a Ritual of Memory in the Puebloan Southwest. (2018)
Among Puebloan groups of the American Southwest, oral traditions record mythical-historical stories of the often-catastrophic or violent ends of some of the pueblo ruins that dot the landscape (e.g., Hopi Ruin Legends, by Michael Lomatuway’ma, et al., 1993). In other cases, archaeological evidence points to the continued importance of ruins across centuries of time as repositories of meaning across the landscape (Snead 2008). One small feature from a burned pueblo from Central New Mexico records...
Virgin Branch Puebloan Adaptations on the Colorado Plateau: Recent Excavations at Granary House (AZ A:14:46) (2021)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The upper reaches of the Virgin Branch Puebloan region—particularly, the western Colorado Plateau—has largely remained understudied, partly resulting from difficulties accessing many areas yielding cultural activity. While the majority of data collection has been amassed through surveys, excavations on the western Colorado Plateau have significantly broadened...
Virtual Archaeology: Teaching Archaeology Using Virtual Reality And Game-based Learning (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Despite the importance of field work in teaching archaeology, field opportunities are available to few students due to logistical, financial, or mobility constraints. To address these challenges, we have created a virtual archaeology undergraduate course that uses game-based learning strategies to convey archaeological concepts and technical skills. We present the initial design and...
Virtual Public Archaeology: Using 3D Imaging and Printing to Engage, Educate, and Enthrall the Public (2017)
Three-dimensional (3D) modeling and printing are cutting-edge applications at the frontiers of archaeological data collection and dissemination. Recent advances in 3D modeling, coupled with reduced costs, provides broad access to these technologies, making them increasingly viable tools for archaeologists to share information not only with each other, but also with the public. Two case studies representing this type of public archaeology can be found in the separate efforts currently undertaken...
Virtual Shipwrecks; Photogrammetry and User Interface Design in Archaeological Outreach (2017)
In the past decade, new software has made it easier and less expensive for archaeologists to use the tools of photographers and game designers to produce novel outreach tools with photogrammetry. Among these relatively new applications is the ability to create virtual worlds from photographic and video data. The public can now access a number of archaeological sites through game platforms, like Steam, using VR goggles and mobile devices to experience a site. This paper addresses means of...
Visibility and Accessibility: Performing Archaeology at the Presidio of San Francisco (2016)

The project also includes a robust volunteer program for those who wish to be more involved in discovery, offering the...
Visions Around and Within: A GIS-based Viewshed Analysis of Ancient Ballcourts in Northern Arizona (2024)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. By the eleventh and twelfth centuries AD, the region around modern-day Flagstaff was an emergent ceremonial landscape, evidenced by the proximity of sacred places, important topographic features, and large forms of ritual architecture. The latter included plazas, unroofed great kivas, platformed spaces, and ballcourts, which were engaged by people...
