7,776-7,800 (8,943 Records)
A Program of multimedia geopysical survey of the entire complex of Mission San Antonio is being conducted over a multiyear period. A great deal of information has been gleaned from non-destrucrtiuve, non-intrusive research allowing achaeologists to focus more clearly on specifiuc areas of interest and provide an inventory to help land managers to preserve as much of this-well preserved archaeological site as possible. The project highlights the benefil of the results of collaboration between...
Some Aboriginal Sites on Green River, Kentucky (1916)
J. Whittaker: (Reprinted 2006 Gustav’s Library, Davenport IA) Reports on burials from "The Indian Knoll" and other sites. Most attention to antler hooks and bannerstones, interpreted tentatively as "netting needles and mesh spacers", experiment shows they work. Atlatl theory considered, but: 1) no definite evidence of atlatls in area 2) atlatl should be one-piece for strength, 3) no points associated [not true, he reports lots of points from burials, including antler point in bone] 4)...

Some experiments in the use of the atlatl (1943)
J. Whittaker: Very accurate and powerful, not as much as bow but good (motion overhand, wrist snap to extend atlatl adds power).

Some Highlights from the Past Two Decades of Archaeological Research in New Orleans (2024)
This is an abstract from the "*SE New Orleans and Its Environs: Historical Archaeology and Environmental Precarity" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. It has been nearly 19 years since Hurricane Katrina nearly destroyed the city of New Orleans, and 14 years since the Deepwater Horizon oil spill created immeasurable damage to the Louisiana coastline. While one would be hard pressed to find much good that came from those events, recovery efforts in the...
"Some interest has been expressed in regard to the diet of the children": The Documentary and Archaeological Implications of Food at the Dorchester Industrial School for Girls. (2018)
The "flora" portion of past diets tends to be an aspect of archaeological assemblages that becomes partially inferred, rather than completely recreated. When they exist, documentary records such as purchase lists and recipes can suggest dietary preferences. Archaeologically recovered macrobotanical assemblages display a concrete portion of consumption practices, but within the constraints of showing a small percentage of plant material that only survives in certain preservation...

Somewhere Between a Savannah River Broadspear and a Model 1855 Rifle: An Archeological Legacy and Recent Research at the Site of the Harpers Ferry Armory (2016)
Harpers Ferry is fortunate to have a rich history of nearly 60 years of professional archeological endeavors. Over half of that has been under the tenure of Regional Chief Archeologist Dr. Stephen Potter. His relentless enthusiasm and support, as well as encyclopedic knowledge, were pivotal in driving new research within the park. Recently, the focus has been on the Armory site. While the Armory is best known for its history of firearm technology, the archeological investigation revealed a...
"Somewhere in No-Man’s Land": Army Camp Hanford and America’s Defense Program (2016)
For four decades, Hanford reactors produced plutonium, generating the fuel for America’s first atomic bombs. In 1950, as the Arms Race increased, the Department of Defense established Anti-Aircraft Artillery sites throughout Hanford to protect the nation’s top secret nuclear facilities. Under the Army’s command, these AAA batteries, base camps and battalion headquarters were home to the men that were "the last defense." This paper will present the historical artifacts recovered from a refuse...

Excavations for the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum were conducted in 2008 and 2009 by Fever River Research and yielded dozens of unique features in downtown Springfield, Illinois. This case study focuses on Feature 35 in the East Parking excavation block that yielded five bottles of Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup....
Sourcing a Secret Recipe: An XRF Study of Barbadian Ceramics (2015)
During the late seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, enslaved African and poor white potters produced redware vessels in eastern parishes across the British Caribbean Island of Barbados. While potters predominantly catered to the burgeoning Barbadian sugar industry, they also crafted domestic vessel forms that emerged as key fixtures in local markets. Despite their economic impact, Barbadian potters are archaeologically invisible: The utilitarian wares they produced are nearly identical to...

The study investigates westward connections at the site as indicated by the potential influx of Edwards Plateau chert. Varieties of Edwards Plateau chert from the...
Sourcing Pensacola Communities of Practice: NAA of Mississippian Pottery on the Northern Gulf of Mexico Coast (2024)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Pensacola variant of the northern Gulf of Mexico Coast was well connected to interior Mississippian groups, yet Pensacola lifeways do not fit broader patterns of subsistence, settlement, and political organization commonly thought of as hallmarks of Mississippian societies. Throughout the Pensacola culture area, people created hybrid cultures by...
South Appalachian Mississippian in the Appalachian Summit: The Pisgah and Qualla Phases in Western North Carolina (2017)
Archaeologists have generally characterized the Pisgah phase in western North Carolina as the manifestation of Mississippian culture in the Appalachian Summit province, dating from A.D. 1000 to 1450, and the precursor to the Qualla phase, which dates from the 1400s through 1800s and is associated with historic Cherokee towns. The Appalachian Summit encompasses rugged topography, sprawling mountain ranges, and some of the tallest peaks east of the Mississippi River, and it is an area with some of...
