This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Since the pioneering work of Dr. Luis Barba of UNAM, the Combined Survey Formal (CSF) has had an impact on graduate work in Mexico beginning in 1990. Wondjina Research Institute's (WRI) development of CSF from a Geological/Geophysical/pXRF and, Portable IR systems was from a successful system in geological exploration. WRI developed this system for the time and cost-effective...

For thousands of years people have utilized cave environments in the southeastern United States.  Caves were used for shelter, burials, and religious ceremonies, and were mined for natural resources by both prehistoric and historic people.  Historically, caves in Florida were used for shelter, trash deposition, as quarries, and played a developmental role in Florida’s early tourism. Many of these caves still affect the lives of people in Florida through tourism, recreation, and scientific...

The city of Pensacola, FL has been attempting to create a heritage tourism industry for half a century but has never achieved the same level of success of some of the most notable destinations they were trying to emulate. This is, in part, due to a signifiant level of development in the historic district, much of which is now historic as well, combined with an impressively complex history concentrated in a relatively small area. If Pensacola, and any community in a similar sutation, is to...

Oyster shell is one of the most frequently recovered materials from archaeological sites in the Chesapeake, but they are often un- or underutilized in archaeological interpretations.  In an effort to explore what information these shells can provide, Colonial Williamsburg's Environmental Archaeology Laboratory has been engaged in an on-going, multi-site, multi-disciplinary, synchronic and diachronic program of research to investigate how oysters recovered from sites in the Virginia Tidewater can...

During the late-19th and early-20th centuries, the sex trade flourished in New Orleans throughout the city, despite legislative efforts at spatial restriction. Guides to the Storyville red-light district (1897-1917) containing advertisements for both places to buy sex and places to eat and drink suggest that food played a significant role in the business of commercial sex. Landscape analysis using data derived from censes, city business directories, newspapers, and other historical sources...

This is an abstract from the "Interdisciplinary Approaches to Rock Art Documentation, Research, and Analysis" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The first published account of Arkansas rock art appeared in the late nineteenth century when public museums and other institutions relied on private citizens as well as professional scholars to report all manner of scientific facts and discoveries. The Arkansas state site files include reports of rock art...

In the past twenty years, historical archaeology in the American West has developed into a mature field of study. Prior to this time, with a few notable exceptions, historical archaeology in the United States was firmly rooted to the east of the Mississippi. Many budding historical archaeologists in the west went east to become initiated to the discipline. For many of these undergraduate and graduate students, Marley Brown was an embedded westerner, who opened the door of the eastern...

This is a poster submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Out of the 30 dugout canoes located in Lake Phelps, four canoes or canoe fragments have been recovered. Since their recovery in the 1980s, one or more of the dugouts have been on exhibit in multiple places around the state over the years, including such places as the North Carolina Museum of History, the welcome center at Pettigrew State Park, the maritime museum in Plymouth, NC, and the...

During the 17th and 18th centuries, the Lake Champlain-Richelieu River Corridor was a ‘border-zone’, highly contested between the Native and European powers of the Atlantic world.  In the summer of 2012, a team of archaeologists, educators and artists undertook a canoe-based landscape archaeological survey of the region.  The team investigated colonial period forts and Native sites with the goal of discerning whether the placement of sites within the landscape was purely strategic, or whether...

Late Pleistocene terrestrial archaeological sites now lie submerged in the karstic river systems of Florida. Nowhere is this more apparent than along the Aucilla River where dozens of inundated prehistoric sites are known. One of the most important sites is Page-Ladson, which has yielded some of the earliest unequivocal evidence for pre-Clovis occupation in North America, dating back to 14,550 cal yr B.P. At that time, sea levels had fallen approximately 100 m and people utilized a pond in...

Undocumented migrants crossing the Sonoran Desert must survive the dangers of extreme heat and rugged terrain, while simultaneously avoiding apprehension and physical abuse by the US Border Patrol. A successful migration attempt therefore depends, in part, on the ability to endure or alleviate pain experienced en route. In order to better understand how health concerns play into the strategies and experiences of migrants, this paper presents an analysis of pharmaceutical and aid-related...

Appearance-related artifacts from the Vanoli Block (5OR30), a late 19th and early 20th century sporting complex in the mining town of Ouray, Colorado, indicate that both the women working in the cribs and their patrons projected a working-class appearance.  An examination of artifacts through the lenses of performance and practice theory is supplemented with historical data regarding class, gender, and costume, and suggests that the sartorial choices made by these women and men emerged from the...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Before, After, and In Between: Archaeological Approaches to Places (through/in) Time" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In 1793, trustees of Liberty Hall Academy – the forerunner of Washington and Lee University (W&L) – built a steward’s house for student dining near the main academic structure. When the latter burned in 1803, the institution moved to its current location. The former campus became a...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The goal of the project is to find and map a portion of the submerged Paleo-Suwannee River in the Eastern Gulf of Mexico. The main goals of our research are to find the Suwannee River channel offshore and map any archaeological sites encountered, and produce geological (sedimentological) and habitat (species and landscape) maps of the area at multiple...

This illustrated paper presents over ten years of early American research in Virginia and Maryland. It covers 12 pre-Clovis sites, a summary of hundreds of Pleistocene/Early Holocene artifacts, and relies on various professional papers on this topic. It discusses the change over from blade/core technology to biface/core technology around the Younger-Dryas geological event. The paper shows artifacts that have not been seen in the archaeological literature. Several ongoing site investigations are...

Florida National Parks preserve millions of acres of wetlands, subtropical estuaries and prehistoric waterways interconnecting thousands of tree islands, middens and shell work islands, comprising one of the largest and most complex prehistoric maritime landscapes worldwide. Recursive human and natural dynamics shaped these landscapes over deep time, but they are now beginning to be impacted by rising sea level and climate change. What can we learn from changes on the landscape and human and...

The Turner River Mound Complex is an intensively modified landscape consisting of numerous shell mounds and other shell work features such as ridges, walkways, canals and ponds. Located in the Ten Thousand Islands region of Everglades National Park, a subtropical mangrove estuary, the complex is an unusual example of the prehistoric tradition of shell-built architecture in Southwest Florida. In this project we combine traditional zooarchaeological analyses, stable isotope sclerochronology, and...

This paper presents the preliminary results of a palynological investigation of sediments from Sloth Hole (8JE121), a site in the Aucilla River. The Aucilla River in Northwestern Florida creates a unique preservation environment that has produced rich cultural, faunal and botanical records from the Late Pleistocene to the present. Archaeologists and recreational divers alike have recovered probable Paleoindian-aged bifaces and a possible butchered mastodon fibula from Sloth Hole. In addition, an...
