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.

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...

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...

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...

Chert spectral database collected from over 1,000 Lower St. Louis "Dover" and Fort Payne chert samples. Database used to evaluate the chert provenance application of both VNIR and FTIR reflectance spectroscopy techniques. The spectral data was also used to characterize the source for 30 Mississippian chert sword-form bifaces.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Paper / Report Submission (General Sessions)", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. This paper will evaluate the storage and everyday use ceramic assemblages from two 19th-century captive house sites, Cedar Grove and Fanny Dickins. These sites are located within the modern 18,500 acre Ames land base in western Tennessee, which historically was one of the highest producing cotton areas in the US South. Since 2011,...

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...

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...

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...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Glass Beads: Global Artefacts, Local Perspectives", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The University of West Florida has recovered at least 36 glass trade beads since the discovery of the Tristán de Luna y Arellano settlement in 2015. This paper compares the bead assemblage recovered from the Luna settlement site in Pensacola, Florida, with Soto's winter encampment, the Governor Martin site, in Tallahassee,...

Hyper-spectral data obtained from 121 chert samples: 60 Ft Payne (30 from Elco, IL; 30 from Florence, AL), 60 Dover (30 from the Brigham Quarry site, TN; 30 from the Thompson Hollow Quarry site, TN), and a single Mookaite chert sample from Australia used as a control. Also included in the spreadsheet are spectral averages of each sample set from a single location. I sheet is 10 spectra taken from a single Dover chert sample and 4 spectra from three color zones in the Mookaite sample....

PROJECT Brian Greer.

This project created a historic context for the naval stores industry on the coastal plains of South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida that provides guidance for identifying the archaeological signature of naval stores sites and a means of assessment that can be used in making recommendations under Sections 106 and 110 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) for eligibility for the National Register of Historic Places. The document also suggests program alternatives or standard treatments...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Landscapes Above and Below in Southern Contexts (General Sessions)" , at the 2021 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. While the concept of “taskscape” has been introduced and utilized within archaeological and historical study, this theoretical approach has an even greater potential to interpret complex archaeological and cultural maritime landscapes. With Somerset Place, near Creswell, North Carolina as a focus site, the...
