This is an abstract from the session entitled "Plus Ultra: An examination of current research in Spanish Colonial/Iberian Underwater and Terrestrial Archaeology in the Western Hemisphere." , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. San Luis de Talimali (8Le4) was a 17th Century Spanish Mission located in the heart of Apalachee province.

The Fugitive Slave Act and the Refugee Crisis of the 1850s: A View from Lancaster County, Pennsylvania (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Bridging Connections and Communities: 19th-Century Black Settlement in North America" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 exacerbated the refugee crisis of the mid-19th century. While an untold number of enslaved people had fled into the northern US prior to 1850, the provisions of the law made residence in the northern states increasingly dangerous for all African Americans. As...
Full of Water, Full of life: Water, Sustainability and Built Heritage in the 19th to 21st centuries San Pasquale Valley, Calabria, Italy (2018)
In the early 1800s wealthy landowners were granted or purchased lands in the San Pasquale Valley, located 50 km from the provincial capital of Reggio Calabria in southern Calabria, Italy. Internal migration of farmworkers to establish commercial bergamot, olive, grape, and mulberry orchards in this valley created a large and thriving community of farmworker families in the valley who built the landowners’ villas, the overseers’ and farmworkers’ houses, and the farming infrastructure of wells,...

The Function and Use of Metis Status in Late 18th and Early 19th Century Northern Indiana. (2015)
In the broadest sense, Métis refers to the resulting offspring of unions between Native Americans and Europeans, most often the French (Brown 1979, 2008; Devons 1992; Hatt 1969; Kienetz 1983). More specifically, Métis has served as a racial or ethnic term, as well as a socio-cultural term. John B. Richardville was a Métis individual and was able to successfully bridge the gap between the two worlds of his parents and exploit his access to each of them at different times in his life. He was able...
The Function of Woodland Period Shell Rings as Seen at the Mound Field Site (8WA8) (2018)
What purpose did Woodland period shell rings along the Gulf Coast of Florida hold? These unique architectural features have been explained as specific patterns of trash disposal, protection against flooding events, and as barriers from intruders, among other things, but no answers have stood to truly explain their proliferation and significance during the Woodland period. Recent excavations in 2015 by Dr. Mike Russo (National Park Service) and in 2016 by Dr. Tanya Peres (Florida State...

Furman Shoals in Prehistory: Archaelogical Data Recovery At Site 9BI69, Lake Sinclair Project, Baldwin County, Georgia (1994)
Archaeological data recovery was conducted in 1993 and 1994 at site 9Bl69, a stratified prehistoric site on the Oconee River Fall Line, Baldwin County, Georgia. The site had previously been recommended as eligible for the National Register of Historic Places, and the data recovery was necessary to mitigate the impact of erosion and site vandalism. Site 9Bl69 is situated within the Lake Sinclair project lands of the Georgia Power Company. The excavations consisted of two blocks, each four by ten...
Further Notes on the Susanville Atlatl (1941)

Further Studies in Raman Spectroscopy of Fire-Cracked Rock (2017)
Biomolecular organic residue analysis is an increasingly popular avenue of archaeological investigation. It is most frequently performed on pottery, though other substrates such as groundstone and chipped lithics are common. Recently, these methods have extended to fire-cracked rock (FCR). FCR features such as earth ovens are an excellent potential application: a) botanical evidence is not always preserved in the features and b) cracks that form in the FCR during the cooking process may protect...
Fusing Multiple Remote-Sensing Technologies to Identify the Elusive Barricade from the 1814 Battle of Horseshoe Bend (2016)
Horseshoe Bend is the scene of an important and controversial battle that took place during the Creek Wars of 1813-14. Over 800 Creek warriors were killed during the battle, the largest number of American Indian deaths from any battle in United States history. Recent scholarship has shown that this battle and its aftermath were the end of a 60 year struggle for control of the trans-Appalachian interior. These conflicts began with the French and Indian War (1754-63) and continued until the end of...
A Future for Photogrammetry: The Application of the Multi-Camera "SeaArray" to Visualize the Underwater Realm of the National Park Service (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The field of underwater archeology has had few technological advancements with the potential to drastically change how we document, manage, and interpret underwater sites like photogrammetry. Currently the primary application continues to focus on single camera acquisition and the 3D reconstruction of specific isolated underwater features. In order to provide a lasting interpretive...
The Future of Collections Driven Research is Digital: Proper Care for Long Term Preservation and Access (2017)
Existing collections represent a significant untapped potential for future research. Their value is made possible, and often greatly enhanced, by the associated records that provide context about their discovery. Other times, physical collections may be incomplete or lost all together and the information about these collections is all that remains. To ensure that future scholars are able to make use of this information it needs to be properly preserved and accessible for discovery. Paper...
The Future of Maritime Archaeology (2016)
Computers, robots, and the internet are changing maritime archaeology while a global middle class - the consumers of cultural products - is growing fast, at least in Asia and the southern hemisphere. In this context archaeology, including maritime archaeology, appears as a promising field where a young generation of archaeologists is pushing to include multiple publics and narratives about archaeological remains. Public archaeology is trying to make sense of archaeological discoveries and tie...
The Future of Paleogenomics in Archaeology: Insights from a Multidisciplinary Study on Sunflower Domestication (2018)
Ancient DNA (aDNA) methodologies have rapidly developed over the past three decades, and today these tools provide a powerful means to investigate a wide range of archaeological inquiries, including human evolution, animal and plant domestication, and paleoenvironmental reconstructions. In this talk, I will summarize general approaches in paleogenomics research, focusing on concerns and questions from archaeologists. To demonstrate how state-of-the-art paleogenomic techniques can contribute to...

Gainer Historical Cemetery: A Modern Reconnection to a "Lost" Cultural Landscape Not Actually Forgotten. (2013)
The African American Gainer Historical Cemetery is located along the border of Washington and Bay Counties in Florida’s panhandle. An African American community has utilized this liminal space since the arrival of settlers in 1825. The cemetery contains evidence of the persistent use of old African-style customs, such as the utilization of traditional funerary material culture. Conflict and migration in the 19th and 20th centuries physically distanced the freedmen and their descendants from...
Gallivanting Capitalism: Nineteenth-Century European Travelers in the Deserts of the Andean South (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Itinerant Bureaucrats and Empire" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The deserts of southern Peru had remained marginal to the Spanish colonial program and were poorly known and documented at the start of the Republic. Following independence (1821-1824), the southern coast thrived thanks to the increased commercial activity on its shores and the exploitation of fertilizers that could be found in Pacific islands and the...
The Galloping Ghost of the Java Coast: A Cursory Site Assessment of WWII Heavy Cruiser USS Houston (2015)
Between June 9-13, 2014, a joint Dive Exercise between the U.S. Navy and the Indonesian Navy was undertaken on the site believed to be the wreck of USS Houston (CA-30) as part of Cooperation Afloat Readiness and Training Indonesia 2014. The 182m wreck, located in Banten Bay within the territorial waters of Indonesia, sank in combat during the Battle of Sunda Strait, resulting in one of the greatest losses of life associated with a single sinking event in U.S. Navy history. During the exercise,...
