This is an abstract from the session entitled "Critical Archaeologies of Whiteness", at the 2024 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Most social reformers were Anglo-American middle-class whites, who found they could not impose their privileged racist and classist ideas of “proper” housekeeping, cooking and mothering etc. on poor whites, minorities and immigrants, because participation in reform programs was voluntary. Amazingly, reform women quoted negative as well as...

In northeastern North America our understandings of prehistoric human–plant relationships, the subject of paleoethnobotany, continue to change as more samples are taken, examined, and compared to extant records. The results of these analyses are no longer relegated to the appendices of archaeological site reports, but constitute important contributions to our understandings of Native American lifeways in the Northeast, on their own and in combination with other lines of evidence. This volume is...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Paper / Report Submission (General Sessions)", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The Plymouth Colony is often thought of very differently from that of Massachusetts Bay, the latter intended to be a “City on a Hill” or example for the world, while the former emphasized separation from it. While an over-simplification, the archaeology of these Colonies has largely entailed this distinction, with Plymouth Colony...

Ecologists and archaeologists have long recognized that fires had an important effect on the vegetation of North America prior to the Colonial period. Evidence from areas as widely separated as Alaska (Shackleton 1979), Minnesota (Craig 1972), and Maine (Anderson 1979) shows that fires burned since before the time when humans first emigrated to the continent at the end of the last ice age. It seems likely that the early inhabitants of North America were accustomed to living in environments that...

The New Boston Air Force Station (NBAFS) Archaeological District is a time capsule of New Hampshire and New England history. The 2,826-acre District contains a diverse and wide-ranging array of archaeological sites and structures representative of human occupation of the region beginning with the Archaic Period (10,000-3,000 B.P.) and ending with the use of the land as a bombing range during World War II and the early Cold War periods of U.S. history. The district is like no other archaeological...
