British colonists in the New World employed a variety of strategies to cope with their new surroundings. In eighteenth- and nineteenth-century St. George's, Bermuda, settlers embraced the natural abundance of the marine environment while maintaining their reliance on Old World domesticates. Market access, personal preference, and socioeconomic standing greatly influenced the nature of this balance of Old and New World foodstuffs. Faunal assemblages from the Henry Tucker House in St. George's...

Tavern Archaeology in Eighteenth-Century Williamsburg, Virginia (2018)
Taverns in eighteenth-century Williamsburg, Virginia ran the gamut from the refined to repugnant, from those catering to the delicate needs of politicians and colonial elites, to those offering basic room and board to road-weary travelers seeking to escape the elements. As elsewhere, Williamsburg’s varied taverns were central places within the community where people regularly gathered to transact business, argue over politics, exchanged news of the day, plot political action, or just enjoy a...
Teaching An Old Dog New Tricks: New Technology for Heritage Conservation (2018)
With millions of acres under their care, the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) must address woodlots, resource extraction, and other energy and recreation-related tasks. Cultural resources and their management are often forgotten or ignored, yet several technologies are available that all state land management agencies and employees can and should learn to implement in order to address this void in overall land and heritage conservation. This poster will focus...
Teaching Hidden Histories: A VRchaeology Experience of the Miller Grove Community (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Silenced Lifeways:The Archaeology of Free African-American Communities in the Indiana and Illinois Borderlands" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Free African American communities in southern Illinois have complex social histories underwritten by ideas of freedom, slavery and resistance. The compelling dynamics of church, community, and negotiated inter-ethnic experiences faced by our nation’s first generation of free...
Teaching With and For the Recent Past: Applying Contemporary Archaeology Pedagogically (2015)
From abandoned council flats to the World Trade Center site, scholars are attempting to understand the material remains of the very recent past by using the methodology of archaeological "excavation." These archaeologies of the contemporary past make familiar items unfamiliar as they explore material residues of late capitalist, post-industrial societies and beyond, participating in what Holtorf calls the merging of "archaeology in the modern world with the archaeology of the modern world." The...
Teaching Without a Wreck: Using Museum Collections in the Classroom (2017)
Spring 2016 marked the first time maritime archaeology was taught to undergraduates at Harvard University. No diving was required for this introductory class, so in order to give the students the experience of researching and identifying a "wreck site" the class partnered with the Peabody Museum of Anthropology and Ethnology. The museum collection contained a number of models that were not on display due to space constraints. The class therefore used the museum ship models as substitutes for an...

A Teardrop Shaped Foundation In Fairfax County, Virginia (2016)
The Old Colchester Park and Preserve, located in southern Fairfax County, Virginia consists of approximately 145 acres along the Occoquan River. This natural and cultural resource Park was acquired by Fairfax County Park Authority in 2006. Located within the Park along the Occoquan River was the ca. 1754-1830 tobacco port town of Colchester. Systematic and targeted testing over the past four years by Colchester Archaeology Research Team (CART) has yielded numerous artifacts and features. ...
Teasing Out The Details: Re-examining A 19th-Century Boardinghouse Site In Lowell, MA (2016)
Archaeological sites excavated under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 provide scholars a wealth of data at their fingertips. Due to the time and financial constraints of excavation, many collections are initially analyzed, stored in state and local repositories and forgotten. However, both academic and cultural resource management (CRM) collections are an invaluable source of new data. The re-examination of these assemblages can tease out more detailed or nuanced...
Technical Considerations of the Growth and Evolution of the Spanish Colonial Irrigation System in San Antonio, Texas (2018)
San Pedro Springs and the San Antonio River provided an ample water supply which enticed the Spanish to establish missions, a presidio, and villas in the vicinity. Harnessing and diverting the flow of water became one of the important challenges the Spanish faced in developing successful agricultural fields. Construction of the first irrigation ditch began shortly after the founding of Mission San Antonio de Valero. Throughout the Spanish Colonial period and into the very early 1900s, the...

Technological Knowledge And Migrations Of Ancestral Pueblo Communities Of Practice In The Northern Rio Grande Of New Mexico (2018)
This paper seeks to evaluate how successive migrations of ancestral Pueblo people from pre-hispanic villages (AD 1250 – 1400) on the Pajarito Plateau of New Mexico restructured potter communities of practice and community identities as ethnic groups joined their Tewa-speaking relatives at the earliest historic period Rio Grande settlements. Oral histories from descendant communities dating to the 19th and early 20th centuries recount how remaining members of these villages resettled to the south...

Technological Toolkit: Using XRF Analysis to better understand 19th Century Iron Making and its Implications for the Labor Force (2016)
The use of X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) as a tool for analyzing archaeological materials is becoming increasingly common. Recently, various types of iron ore and iron products produced at furnaces in Maryland and Pennsylvania in the 19th century were analyzed using XRF measurements. These measurements were employed to create a representational graph of the elemental composition of iron artifacts in order to identify a connection between the source material and the iron product. Documentary...
Technology and Empire: A Comparative Analysis of British and Dutch Maritime Technologies during the Napoleonic Era (2015)
A study of the Dutch vessel Bato (1806) and British vessel Brunswick (1805) wrecked in Simons Bay, South Africa presents a unique opportunity to compare and analyse the maritime shipbuilding technologies available to these two powerful seafaring nations during the Napoleonic Era (1792-1815). Preliminary research of the material culture record yields data about British and Dutch access and utilization of specific shipbuilding timbers, iron knees, metal sheathings, and variety of fastenings....

Technology As A Tool For Public Experience And Interpretation (2018)
Archaeologists and geographers from the interdisciplinary archaeology program, University of North Carolina Greensboro (UNCG), engage the public in local archaeological projects through multiple methods. Early projects included use of hand-held GPS tied to site information in Belize, and a voiced, animated battle overlay on a modern map. UNCG investigators offer visitors a chance to see how to collect remote sensed data (e.g., GPR, magnetometer, Lidar), I-Pad 3D imaging, and laboratory...
