Identifying historically documented ethnic groups in the archaeological record benefits from pragmatic approaches to material culture studies and regional-scale analyses of interaction. Ongoing investigations of the dispersal and migration of Huron-Wendat and other Indigenous peoples of eastern North America as an outcome of colonialism in 17th century are applying archaeometric analysis methods to glass trade beads to trace population movements and exchange networks. Chemical elements calcium,...

This is a poster submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. By the dawn of the eighteenth century, Native Americans in the Southeast (and beyond) had already grown accustomed to items of European manufacture. Of these goods, firearms were undoubtedly the most consequential. The earliest guns given or traded to native peoples were not specifically manufactured for this purpose; however, by this period, England had begun producing muskets according...

This is a poster submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. An archaeological perspective on trade and industry in urban Nebraska has not yet been well defined. Comparative analyses of several collections excavated on the present-day University of Nebraska-Lincoln campus have begun to reveal the intricacies of local industry in conjunction with larger national trends. These collections give us a glimpse into life within the developing urban...

Enormous costs are involved in conducting deep-sea archaeological fieldwork, proper conservation, research and curation of recovered artifacts, followed by publication of the results. With governments facing a dire economic outlook, where will the funding come from to excavate shipwreck sites before they are destroyed by natural and manmade forces?   To help finance projects, Odyssey proposes a model whereby science and commerce are compatible, with the goal of preserving underwater cultural...

In 1783, following the American Revolution, the British government resettled thousands of Loyalists throughout the Bahamas. The mostly American-born Loyalists brought in captivity, a large population of American-born African descent peoples and were given Bahamian land grants to establish a cotton plantation economy. Cotton never faired well and most plantations shifted toward subsistence activities and basic needs until slavery ended in 1838.  Although former plantation owners and emancipated...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Mississippianization of the Midwest unfolded during the late 11th and early 12th centuries as interactions with Cahokia influenced aspects of local community organization, ceremonialism, material culture, and access to exotic raw materials. For local peoples in the northern hinterland regions, these encounters and affiliations also facilitated interactions...

In recent years, public historians have placed increased emphasis on collaborative practice—the need to reach out to an expanded array of community stakeholders, the desire to share authority through co-creative planning processes, and the effort to create engaging experiences for visitors. These developments have been motivated, in part, by an effort to diversify the public history landscape and to incorporate non-white and non-elite histories into public memory. This paper will explore the...

Camp Bowie, near the headwaters of the Colorado River in Brown County, Texas, is surrounded by what the Spanish referred to as "Comanchería," or Comanche Country. The Texas Military Department completed a Traditional Cultural Properties (TCP) survey of Camp Bowie during which, representatives of the Comanche Nation visited a total of 45 sites and identified six locales as TCPs, while defining historic Comanche components for 41 sites. The Mescalero Apache visited a total of 31 sites, including...

During his lifetime, George Washington's Mount Vernon Estate spanned 8,000 acres and encompassed five separate farms, four of which were used for large-scale cultivation of field crops. The exception was Mansion House Farm, where the only cultivation consisted of kitchen gardens, vineyards, and some agricultural experimentation. Yet a substantial number of iron agricultural tools have been found archaeologically. This study addresses the anomaly by focusing specifically on the agricultural hoes...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Roads, Rivers, Rails and Trails (and more): The Archaeology of Linear Historic Properties" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The environmentally-marginal Polynesian hinterland of Manukā, Hawai‘i is composed of interwoven, young, and often barren lava flows. Both historical and traditional accounts depict Manukā as an inhospitable, desolate landscape. Yet, the extant archaeology indicates an expansive use of...

This is an abstract from the "Training Public Archaeologists: Shaping the Future of Archaeology" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In the closing remarks of his 2017 Presidential Address, SHA President Joe Joseph reminded us to "be public archaeologists first, historical archaeologists second." Such a proclamation reflects the growing need for archaeologists to be publicly facing with their work, whether that be through daily interactions, museums,...

Two seasons of East Carolina University’s Program in Maritime Archaeology field school have focused on the Pillar Dollar Shipwreck in Biscayne National Park. Named by locals after Spanish pillar dollar coins, the shipwreck was once a training site for treasure hunters in the 1960s. Despite suffering years of looting and treasure hunting, the shipwreck is remarkably robust with large sections of the structure buried intact. This paper presents the results of excavation and mapping on this...

In the mid-19th century, a practical working knowledge of domestic arts, such as sewing, was necessary to navigate daily life.  However, excelling in these skills was seen as significant not only because of the functional use of the work, but also as associated with desirable personal qualities of neatness, thrift, and morality.  The Industrial School for Girls in Dorchester, MA was established not only to foster marketable trade skills, but also to improve the moral character of the young women...

For archaeologists artifacts are data, objects to be measured, weighed, described, and interpreted.  They are items that can shed light on past political, economic, and social systems.  However, the objects we excavate in the field or study in museums also forge multiple connections and obligations in the present and into the future.   Considering objects in this way allows one not only to better understand the past, but also to more effectively engage the present. More effectively presenting...

The Hudson River has been a thoroughfare for transporting goods since the early seventeenth century. The Industrial Revolution and the subsequent development of railroad lines and the Erie Canal magnified the role of the Hudson River from Albany to New York City as a major economic artery for the new republic. At the same time, the Staffordshire potteries began producing transfer-printed ceramics for the world market. Manhattan’s docks were flooded with all forms of consumer goods. These goods...

Transferprinted ceramics and other objects ingested by fowl provide unique data on the household production associated with a fur trade center in the Pacific Northwest. Gastroliths are an indicator of the use of avifauna at archaeological sites, specifically of the Order Galliformes. The presence of ceramic, glass, and other gastroliths at house sites within Fort Vancouver’s Village provide evidence for the keeping and consumption of domestic fowl including chickens and turkeys. The presence and...

Ashley series pottery archaeologically defines the Indians who lived around Charleston Harbor when the first English settlers arrived in Carolina. Recent excavations and analyses demonstrate a rapid stylistic change in decorative motifs by the mid-seventeenth century, with at least two sub-phases represented in samples from two principal sites; samples from additional sites provide corroborative information and temporal associations into the early eighteenth century. Do these changing motifs...
