In Every Grain of Sand, There is a Story: The story of Ada K. Damon as a Case Study in Fostering Maritime Archaeological Heritage and Education in Massachusetts. (2017)
In 2015, SEAMAHP and the Massachusetts Board of Underwater Archaeological Resources (MBUAR) partnered with Salem State University, National Park Service (NPS), the Nautical Archaeology Society (NAS) and the PAST Foundation to offer a field school that examined the life and death of Ada K. Damon – a 19th century schooner that has been landmark on the shoreline for over 100 years. This pilot program successfully raised enough awareness and interest that Salem State University requested a second...
In Hot Water: Climate Change and Underwater Archaeology (2016)
Climate change is one of the greatest challenges facing humanity. To date, however, archaeologists are still developing their relevancy and role in informing climate change research, management strategies, and understanding. Coastal and underwater archaeological research has significant potential to offer insights into past human adaptations to climate change, and to provide an anthropogenic lens through which the history of climate change might be viewed. In addition to providing historical...
In Memoriam: Challenges in Historic Burial Ground Conservation (2020)
This is a poster submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Gravestones and monuments from settler burial grounds penetrate the North American landscape; early cemeteries function as historic resources in a myriad of ways, serving as records of ancestry, vernacular art, sociocultural and religious sentiments, and demography. Despite public interest in these sites, most struggle to preserve, maintain, and rehabilitate their spaces and markers....

In Pursuit of Eighteenth-Century Urban Landscapes in the "Old North State:" A Summary and Common Themes of 50+ Years of Urban Archaeology in North Carolina’s Colonial Country-politan Port Towns (2018)
Given their historically modest size and meager populations, one could hardly consider the colonial port towns of North Carolina "urban" by period standards when compared to contemporary Philadelphia or Charleston. Largely due to unique coastal geography, the culturally rural character, and comparatively late development of North Carolina during the colonial era, smaller towns shared common characteristics of design and development that fulfilled regional needs as developed centers, where...

In Search of a 17th-Century Iberian Work Horse (2013)
The coastal stretches along Portugal's Algarve are historically notorious for storms in which vessels were lost during return voyages from southern destinations. Archival documents have revealed that an Iberian work vessel, perhaps a little-known but ubiquitous ship type from the Age of Exploration known as the patacho, was wrecked during a storm in the Bay of Martinhal in 1608. As the construction and operation of this particular ship type is virtually unknown, a research project was designed...
In Search of Agrarian Women in the Material Culture of the Post-bellum Sandhills (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Although World War I proved a boon for the suffrage movement, it resulted in the displacement of the agrarian communities of South Carolina’s Sandhills. Beginning in 1917, war preparations centered on the construction of Fort Jackson just outside of Columbia. As the Fort expanded, agrarian families across the Sandhills resisted development. This paper delves into the world of the...
In Search of Freedom: Investigating 19th Century African American Settlement Development in Southern Indiana (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. During the early 19th century, free African Americans began moving from North Carolina to Orange County, Indiana, developing a small farming community in Southeast Township. This community, known today as the Lick Creek African American Settlement, thrived for several...
In Search of La Garita: The Archaeological Discovery of the Spanish Colonial Watch Tower and Powder House (2018)
The location of the Spanish Colonial Watch Tower and Powder House, built between 1808-1809, has been confirmed in San Antonio. These structures represented a significant military post that was, through its span of use, occupied by the militaries of Spain, The Republic of Mexico, The Republic of Texas, The United States, and The Confederate States of America. The long use of the structures ended in the late 19th century when the buildings were demolished and their locations were lost. The City of...
In Search Of....The Lost Kilns Of St. Elizabeths Hospital (2016)
St. Elizabeths Hospital was championed by Dorthea Dix during the 1840s-50s as a model hospital for the treatment of the mentally ill. Starting in 2005, Stantec has conducted archaeological investigations at the Department of Homeland Security’s new home on the Hospital’s West Campus. One of the persistent questions we are asked is: "Where were the kilns?" Annual progress reports to Congress mention the presence of "kilns" but give no clue as to their number, location, or nature. Various field...
In Sickness And In Health: Well-being Of Enslaved Laborers At The Hermitage Plantation (2018)
Prior to the nineteenth century, the practice of medicine was as much an art as it was a science in the Western world. By the antebellum period, European, African, African American, and Native American medical theory and practices intermingled on Southern plantations because of centuries of interaction. This study of the material culture of health and well-being at the Hermitage highlights the extent to which consumption, cultural beliefs, and incipient scientific discourse intersected to shape...
In Situ Digital Documentation of the 1559 Emanuel Point Shipwrecks (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Technology in Terrestrial and Underwater Archaeology" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Since 1996, University of West Florida (UWF) archaeologists have documented the vessels associated with Tristán de Luna y Arellano’s 1559 colonization fleet through standard survey methods. In recent years, with the relative low cost of underwater digital cameras, UWF documentation methods have evolved to include photographs and...
In situ Site Stabilization of HMS Fowey (2015)
HMS Fowey, located in Biscayne National Park, was uncovered and surveyed by the National Park Service (NPS) in 2013, after being damaged by Tropical Storm Sandy in 2012. The objective of the project was to record its current condition and surrounding environment, and to develop an in situ stabilization plan. Geological, geophysical, and oceanographic data were collected at the site and processed by NPS and U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). These data, along with archaeological site information...
In Support of a Holistic Approach to Bioarchaeology: The Distribution of Bacterial Genera by Presence of Material Culture in the Milwaukee County Poor Farm Cemetery (2024)
This is an abstract from the "There and Back Again: Celebrating the Career and Ongoing Contributions of Patricia B. Richards" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Complicating the narrative of the traditional poor farm cemetery, the work of Patricia B. Richards has led to a more humanistic approach to interpreting archaeological data. This study presents oral microbiome data from twenty-five female individuals from the Milwaukee County Poor Farm...
In the Beginning: Stuart Struever and the Lower Illinois River Valley (LIV) (2024)

This introductory paper for the symposium recognizing and celebrating the seminal contributions of Stuart Struever to Midcontinental archaeology begins with his earliest regional project at the Kamp Mound Group. Legend has it that Struever became lost traveling to St....
In the Crossfire of Canons: A Study of Status, Space, and Interaction at Mid-19th Century Vancouver Barracks, Fort Vancouver National Historic Site, Washington (2016)
The U.S. Army’s Fort Vancouver in southwest Washington served as the headquarters for the U.S. Army’s Pacific Northwest exploration and campaigns from 1849 to World War II. During the mid-19th century, members of the military community operated within a rigid social climate with firm cultural expectations and rules of behavior that articulated with Victorian notions of gentility. Excavations of residential areas occupied by junior officers, non-commissioned officers, laundresses, and enlisted...
In the Land of Milk and Honey? Non-Urban Jewish Spaces in Late Nineteenth Century Staunton, Virginia. (2017)
American Jewish history tends to focus on the often insular urban communities of the Northeast. Individuals and families arrived to the United States and settled in places like New York’s Lower East Side, seemingly self-contained enclaves of Jewish economic and social life. This story has become a trope. However, many other Jewish immigrants in the late 19th and early 20th centuries did not follow this pattern. Instead these individuals ended up in small towns, establishing their own...
In the Most Unlikely of Places: Marley R. Brown III, the College of William & Mary, and Foundational Moments in African Diaspora Archaeology (2015)
Through the nineties, there were significant moments in the development of African Diaspora archaeology as a field and as a practice. We were moving our focus from the Main House to the daily lives of captive people and interpreting plantation landscapes differently. We witnessed major archaeological discoveries, such as the African Burial Ground in New York City and the Levi Jordan Plantation in Texas, and it was the beginning of lively debates about the practice of community engagement. These...
