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.

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...

Garrity Site
The Garrity site is located in the northwest of the South Bay district. The site was excavated in July of 1979. The fields of the site were divided into five sections.
