DOCUMENT Citation Only Matthew S Kaczor.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Paper / Report Submission (General Sessions)", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Cuban migration to the United States is a complex topic, politically and historically. Due to political repression, economic hardships, and promise of freedom in the U.S, Cuban people have been migrating in waves of thousands for over 60 years. Cuban citizens have made the journey both by air and sea, legally and illegally,...

Dissertation that examines the non-destructive application of visible/near-infrared and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy to chert sourcing. The study also examines the provenance of material used to manufacture a sample of Middle Mississippian sword-form bifaces.


The Application of Relfectance Spectroscopy to Chert Provenance of Mississippian Symbolic Weaponry
PROJECT Uploaded by: Ryan Parish

Determination of the source of chert artifacts ties past peoples to specific locations on the landscape either through direct or indirect procurement strategies allowing researchers to visualize interactions with both resources and people. However, due to inherent variability accurate provenance data often remains elusive. The reliance upon chert provenance data obtained through macroscopic techniques is problematic and emphasizes the importance of continued research and development of...


Beautifying the Bleak: Ornamental Landscaping at German POW Camp D-D, Fort Campbell, KY (2022)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Nichole Sorensen-Mutchie. Ronald Grayson.

This is a poster submission presented at the 2022 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Approximately 1,000 German soldiers were held as prisoners of war at Camp D-D from 1943-1946. During their confinement, POWs would plant ornamental vegetation to beautify the otherwise sterile landscape. Although partially destroyed, portions of Camp D-D have not been impacted by subsequent land use. Recent pedestrian survey of the site has revealed extant non-native, ornamental...


Chert Spectral Database (2013)
DATASET Ryan Parish.

The spreadsheet consists of three booklets. The first reports all visible/near-infrared spectra recorded on all 1,050 chert samples analyzed in the project. The second reports all middle-infrared reflectance spectra recorded for the 1,050 chert samples. The third booklet reports both visible/near-infrared and middle-infrared spectra non-destructively recorded upon 30 Mississippian sword-form biface artifacts. Rows represent an individual sample/artifact while columns are the wavelength...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Elizabeth J Reitz. Carla S Hadden. Hayden R Smith. Grant Snitker. Martha A Zierden. Angelina G Perrotti.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "The Emergence and Development of South Carolina Lowcountry Studies: Papers in Honor of Martha Zierden" , at the 2022 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. We approach the emergence and evolution of Charleston (South Carolina) from the perspective of landscape modifications associated with fires, livestock, commodity production, and cultural dynamics by exploring two distinct nodes in the colonial economy: urban Charleston and...


Evaluating Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy as a Non-Destructive Chert Sourcing Technique
PROJECT Uploaded by: Ryan Parish

The visual and chemical similarity between some chert types and individual outcrops within the same geologic formation often hinders accurate provenance determination. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) reflectance micro-spectroscopy is a non-destructive method demonstrating potential application in chert sourcing. Prior to analysis of archaeological assemblages the accuracy of the technique and analytical methodology must be tested. The current study examines a sample database of two visually...


From Flats and Fords to Causeways and Canals: Carolina Rice Plantations and the Construction of the Lowcountry (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Emily A Schwalbe.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Paper / Report Submission (General Sessions)", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Rice agriculture in colonial and antebellum North America transformed the coastal landscape between the Cape Fear River in southeastern North Carolina and the St. Johns River in northern Florida through the still-visible irrigation canals hand dug by enslaved Africans. These distinctive features and associated history of rice...
