Structural Analysis of the Warwick  (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Piotr T Bojakowski.

 The remains of the Warwick are one of the largest and most coherent fragments of an early 17th century English ship. Notwithstanding the historical designation of the vessel as the "magazine" ship, the Warwick was far from being an ordinary freighter. As the analysis of its structurecontinues, it appears this ship was a finely crafted and finished vessel and a powerful fighting machine. It was built in a more traditional style, perhaps a style going back to such notable examples as the Mary...


Structural Considerations for Understanding Historical Tablet Weaving (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Sarah Goslee.

During the many centuries during which tablet weaving has been practiced, back at least to the 9th century BC, ever-inventive weavers have developed a multitude of complex techniques. Clear and consistent methods of describing the structural attributes of tablet-woven bands enable the historian and reenactor to communicate clearly. Relating structural attributes to potential methods of production allows both the accurate reproduction of historical bands and the recognition of subtle features...

Structural racism and archaeological practice - the archaeology of razed African American industrial communities. (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Robert DeMuth.

The coal company towns found throughout West Virginia and Central Appalachia were compact, racially diverse communities housing African Americans, white americans, and various european immigrant groups.  However, when the industry contracted after World War II, racial firing practices meant that many African American families were forced to leave the area. These newly vacant lots were often repurposed for further industrial use, effectively destroying the material record of many of the African...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Archaeological Research of the 17th Century Chesapeake" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. At the Coan Hall Site (44NB11) on Virginia’s Northern Neck, extensive excavations and multi-year GPR surveys have contributed to the identification of key aspects of entangled seventeenth- and eighteenth-century landscapes. One of the most intriguing features located by these efforts is a large, oval palisade that is...


Stuck in the Middle: A Technological Organization Study on an Underwater Paleoindian Assemblage (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Morgan Smith.

Unfluted lanceolate point types in the Southeast United States, including Suwannee, Simpson, Quad, and Beaver Lake, are poorly understood. A lack of robust unfluted point assemblages found in secure context in association with radiocarbon datable material has made interpreting these types difficult. However, a few sites in the Southeast contain unfluted lanceolate points within relative stratigraphic sequences or associated with extinct fauna. Based on this evidence from these sites, these...

A Study of George White through Flight and Light (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only C. Broughton Anderson. Annie He. Bianca Godden. Samantha Sise. Alicia Crocker.

Imaging is a critical part of the archaeologist’s toolkit. Likewise, the capture, manipulation, enhancement, and interpretation of images has been the subject of significant research in computing over the past 20 years. This project brought together five students studying archaeology and computing to collaborate on fieldwork—and the hardware and software that supports that fieldwork—to engage in an exploration of the life of George White, a freed slave and property owner in Madison and Jackson...


A Study of Indigenous Daily Life Integrating Geophysical and Archaeological Methods at the San Antonio Missions (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Melissa A Agnew.

The San Antonio Missions were established along the San Antonio River in the 18th century by the Spanish in order to convert the native populations to Christianity and to buffer the French settlements to the east. These colonial institutes brought Spanish Catholic priests and indigenous groups together under one roof, merging cultural practices and beliefs. The missions are now a UNESCO World Heritage site and a vital part of San Antonio’s history and tourism industry. This paper presents a...

A Study of the Effects of Two Poly-Ethylene Glycol Pretreatments in the Conservation of Waterlogged Wood (2020)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jonathan L Henneberry.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Current Research at the Conservation Research Laboratory at Texas A&M University" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Waterlogged wood can be a challenging material to successfully conserve due to its frailty, ability to discolor, and ease with which it shrinks and warps. In an effort to minimize these issues, an experiment was devised to evaluate the use of an ethanol-based PEG solution versus a water-based...

A Study of Two Limestone Roads at the Nathan Boone Homestead Site (23SC2155) (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Brianna L Patterson.

Over the course of two field schools held by Lindenwood University, students have unearthed two limestone roads at the Nathan Boone homestead site (23SC2155) in Saint Charles, Missouri. Nathan Boone was the youngest son of Daniel Boone. The Boone family traveled to Missouri in 1799. Limestone, a local building material, was commonly used on the frontier. The two limestone roads at the Nathan Boone site share a close proximity but seem to be meant for separate purposes. Each road has a distinct...


Style and Sustenance: A Comparative Investigation of Cattle Husbandry, Beef Butchery, and Gentry Cuisine in Eighteenth-Century British Colonial Virginia and Connecticut (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Dessa E. Lightfoot.

Cattle husbandry systems in Colonial Virginia and Colonial Connecticut diverged greatly from a shared British origin. Husbandry choices were not made in isolation, but instead this divergence was the result of a complex interplay between colonial goals, social organization, and changing British culinary fashions.  Did the role of beef in regional Virginian and Connecticuter cuisines vary from contemporary British uses?  Did they vary significantly from each other?  By exploring the history of...

The Subculture of the U.S.Army during WWII and Its Impact on the Construction of a New Airbase in the Aleutian Islands, Alaska (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Christopher Roe.

This presentation reviews my MA thesis which examined how the subculture of a military organization can influence the construction of a new facility. During World War II, the U.S. Army had an upper class of commissioned officers who had access to many resources and a lower class of enlisted personnel who had limited resources. The U.S. Army also segregated African American and female soldiers, each group being restricted in unit assignment, work done, and separation from other white or male...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Nicole Grinnan.

This is an abstract from the "Case Studies from SHA’s Heritage at Risk Committee" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. While many studies have focused on understanding and mitigating the effects of climate change on terrestrial archaeological heritage sites, far fewer have sought to explore impacts on submerged sites. New shoreline dynamics, changes in salinity, ocean acidification, and rising water temperatures are all serious potential issues for...
