The Hermitage assemblage is a treasure trove of 19th-century material culture.  However, DAACS analyses have revealed that, in addition to hundreds of thousands of 19th century artifacts, over 23,500 fragments of lithic debitage, projectile points, and tools were unearthed from the plantation complex.  This paper examines this lithic assemblage and evaluates whether its presence and distribution is the result of prehistoric Native Americans’ activities at the site or production/curation by the...

      Recent archaeological investigations at the 17th century John Hollister Site in Glastonbury, Connecticut resulted in the recovery of thousands of extraordinarily well-preserved faunal remains.  The diverse assemblage, which includes mammals, birds, fish, and shellfish, was recovered from three large, filled cellar contexts. The food remains provide an unprecedented look at the foodways, animal husbandry strategies, and food procurement activities of Connecticut’s earliest settlers, and...

Throughout history, ocean-going watercraft have been the primary vehicle for global trade, colonization and exploration. Constant wear on ship’s hulls over time, coupled with damage from marine fouling organisms prompted sailors and shipwrights to develop a diverse range of methods and materials to protect their vessels from harm. Nautical sheathing refers to the exterior covering of a ship’s hull with a thin layer of metal or wood to protect the vessel from marine life fouling, and to stabilize...

From June to September 2014, the remains of a previous unknown shipwreck emerged from the sands of Coffins Beach. Named for the Coffin family and not a funerary item, it is a north facing barrier beach, Gloucester, Massachusetts.  Initial field investigation revealed a much older vessel.  Detailed documentary research identified up to 80 shipwrecks occurring in the vicinity since 1635; two thirds occurring prior to 1860, chiefly described as shallops, sloops, and early schooners.  The extant...

This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Recent excavations on St. Catherines Island, GA have uncovered a previously unknown late 18th to early 19th century site. No historic maps or written accounts report any sites or structures in this area. There have been extremely limited excavations related to any sites dating to this time period on St. Catherines Island and this site may be able to bridge a sizable gap in our...

Poydras College was Catholic boys’ boarding school located off of False River near New Roads, Louisiana.  The school was in operation from 1836-1861 with sparse openings during the Civil War before the main building was destroyed by fire in 1881.  This presentation will discuss the historical significance of the college as well as the archaeological methods and the historical research aimed at locating the main building and attempting to place the site in the broader context of early efforts in...

The Nathaniel Clark pottery was established at Marietta, Ohio, in 1808 and is thus one of the first such operations in the region.  Excavations initiated in 2013 have encountered well-preserved features, and have produced a useful sample of product and production debris over three field seasons.  Concurrent documentary research is also providing details on the personal and business contexts of the Clark pottery.  The location of this manufactory at a major regional hub provides insight regarding...

This presentation will provide a preliminary phytolith analysis to address foodways and plant use at the John Hollister Site using samples taken from the site’s well-preserved filled cellars. Phytoliths provide a line of analysis that can reinforce and expand upon traditional macroscopic archaeobotanical analyses due to differences in the ways that seeds and phytoliths preserve. Initial phytolith analysis supports the macroscopic archaeobotanical findings that the people at the John Hollister...

This paper reports on and begins the process of addressing research questions related to the archaeobotanical remains from the 17th-century John Hollister Site in Glastonbury, Connecticut. The site boasts an extraordinary level of botanical preservation and promises to be a significant contribution to the understanding of the period’s regional foodways. Initial results suggest a mixture of indigenous plants and taxa that likely entered the region with early European settlement. This mirrors the...

The National Park Service has recognized a need to identify submerged inundated prehistoric archaeological sites within the Florida Bay region of Everglades National Park (EVER) in order to further develop knowledge of its available cultural resources. Numerous archaeological sites have been found in terrestrial regions of EVER; however very little in known about buried, inundated, or submerged sites. Working in conjunction with RSMAS, a project was developed to identify the parameters necessary...

Beginning with the signing of the Treaty of Fort Jackson and ending with the forced removal of most Creeks on the Trail of Tears, the Tallisi Phase (1814-1836) was a period of tremendous cultural transformation for the Creeks of Southeastern North America. Historical documents suggest the most profound of these changes were alterations in political structure, domestic economies, and demographics. This paper examines the archaeological and historical records to evaluate the impacts of these...

This paper analyzes and compares ceramic diversity and small domestic artifacts from two domestic sites located at Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello plantation. During the first quarter of the nineteenth century, one site was the home of white overseer Edmund Bacon while the other was the location of at least one quarter for enslaved African Americans. Analysis of artifacts recovered from plowzone enhances our understanding of how one of Monticello’s white overseers’ personal items differed from the...
