Since the inception of the program that began from an archaeological field school on MSU’s campus in 2005,...
Translation of the summary of the Doctorate thesis of Ulrich Stodiek, "Zur Technologie der jungpalaolithischen Speerschleuder." (1994)
J. Whittaker: Ethnographic survey, size ranges. Australian info: successful hunting range 10-30 m. Upper Paleolithic archaeological survey: 123 specimens of hook ends [which include the famous animal carvings, and some pieces considered by others to be complete]. Two hook types: hook, and hook + groove. Surviving pieces are too short to be complete, would be part of more complex tool. Reconstructions and experiments performed: Needed fletching on pine shafts with antler points. Flexibility...
Trash is Treasure: Understanding the Enslaved Landscape in Southern Maryland through Artifact Distribution (2018)
This research will present the findings of an archaeological evaluation focusing on the manipulation of the enslaved landscape throughout Southern Maryland in the 18th and 19th centuries. By analyzing the landscape of slave quarters at Bowens Road II (18CV151) and Smith’s St. Leonard’s (18CV91) more information of Maryland’s plantation landscape can be understood and compared throughout the Middle-Atlantic region. An analysis of artifact distribution focusing on several artifact types throughout...

Travel Dust and Wanderlust: The Queer Routes of Early African American Blues Traditions (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Gender Revolutions: Disrupting Heteronormative Practices and Epistemologies" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The historical emergence of modern queer subcultures is often framed as an urban phenomenon attributed to the anonymity of metropolitan centers. Far less attention has been paid to rural queer ecologies where systems of racial and sexual surveillance coalesced in the Jim Crow Era. Foregrounding the...
Traveling in Time: Connecting the public with local history through hospitality, heritage tourism in Catoctin Furnace (2016)
Located in the picturesque foothills of the Catoctin Mountains, the village of Catoctin Furnace is a burgeoning heritage tourism destination. Recently, work began to renovate the Forgeman’s House, a stone "workers’ cabin" constructed ca. 1817. The primary goal of the project, sponsored by the Catoctin Furnace Historical Society, is to restore the house to its original layout and appearance. The cabin will serve as a short-term/vacation rental, available for visitors to reserve nightly....

Travels and Traverses, Pilgrimages and Passages: Alternative Concepts of Interaction (2017)
When confronted by the presence of non-local ceramics and stone tools, variations in artifact styles, the spatial distribution of settlements and settlement hierarchies, and evidence thought to indicate intergroup conflict, archaeologists typically turn to the general concept of "interaction" to explain these material residues. Furthermore, interaction scenarios sometimes are premised on the notion of inequities in resource access. When cultural behemoths like Cahokia are implicated in scenarios...

Treating Material Culture Data and Biological Data Equally: An Example from the Alameda Stone Cemetery in Tucson, AZ (2018)
In the analysis of historic cemeteries, there are many instances, especially in recent years, of biological data taking precedence over data derived from material culture. In part, this is because analysts can often assign a probability to a biological decision, and material culture decisions do not come with specific probabilities. However, regardless of the nature of the data, all lines of evidence should be considered valid and significant. In the excavation and analysis of the Alameda Stone...

Tree Island Life: Late Archaic Adaptations of a Northern Everglades Community (2018)
The Wedgworth Midden (8PB16175), a Late Archaic tree island site near Belle Glade, Florida, produced large quantities of faunal remains during excavations undertaken by Florida Gulf Coast University in May of 2016. Analysis of these remains allows insight into patterns of resource acquisition and reveals ways in which people adapted to the local environment. Comparison of proportions of taxa from different occupational periods allows us to trace changes in resource use and sheds light on...

Trenches to Rafters: The Archaeology and Architecture of Francois Valle II's Ste. Genevieve Home (2019)
This is an abstract from the "POSTER Session 3: Material Culture and Site Studies" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. This poster details the history of a previously unexamined French Colonial poteaux sur sol structure in Ste. Genevieve, Missouri. Contrary to local oral histories, archaeological evidence from the Sangamo Archeological Center’s 2017 and 2018 excavations indicate that this building was once much grander than the now-modest structure...
Trend and tradition in South Appalachian carved paddle stamps (2017)
The nature of Swift Creek design style has been a research focus of the lead authors for a number of years. In this poster, we broaden the discussion to include the full range of carved paddles, originally identified by W. H. Holmes as integral to the South Appalachian pottery tradition. Within the context of the stylistic principles of Swift Creek, as previously defined, we chart paddle stamping from its earliest beginnings ca 600 BC to the ethnographic present. Our concerns include...
Trends and Perspectives: Heritage At Risk (HARC) (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Trends and Perspectives: Heritage At Risk (HARC)" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Wind, flood, and fire are affecting archaeological sites at seemingly greater rates than previously recorded. Cultural resource managers, researchers, and government agencies are dealing with the effect of stronger and more violent storms on cultural heritage as they try to map and protect archaeological sites both on land and...
Trents Plantation Barbados: Some Comparisons of Data Analyzed Using DAACS and a Long Used Analysis System (2015)
As participants in the DRC we learned the DAACS database system and entered an initial group of 3000 data entries for Trents Plantation, Barbados. At Syracuse University we had been using a database using a combination of Access© and Excel© which had become cumbersome and was in need of being updated. DAACS and the DRC provided an opportunity to learn a new system and to collaborate with a group of colleagues, as well as to input on the new DAACS analysis system. This paper reviews our...
Tri-Closure: A Quick And Easy Way To Create A Local Coordinate System For Underwater Photogrammetric Recording (2017)
To use 3-D photogrammetric models as scientific data, it is essential for archaeologists to use local coordinate systems to constrain their photogrammetric models to 1:1 scale. This enables archaeologists to take measurements directly from their models. Direct Survey Methods (DSM) are often used to create local coordinate systems; however, DSM often requires several days of diving operations, which may become problematic when recording large or deep-water sites. As a quick alternative method,...
The Trials of Trinité: the Discovery and Archaeological Potential of Jean Ribault’s 1565 Flagship (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "From the Bottom Up: Socioeconomic Archaeology of the French Maritime Empire" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. With the 450th anniversary of French colonization at Fort Caroline (Jacksonville, Florida) in 2014, both state and LAMP archaeologists attempted searches to find the remains of Jean Ribault’s four shipwrecks. While these attempts were inconclusive, in 2016 a treasure hunting company found a...
The Triangle Trade and Early Nineteenth Century Rum Distilleries in Bristol, Rhode Island (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Reinterpreting New England’s Past For the Future" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Although the slave trade was outlawed in 1787, Rhode Island merchants continued slave voyages to West Africa and the West Indies into the early 1800s. By then the coastal town of Bristol had surpassed Newport as the busiest slave port in the state. Bristol’s DeWolf family financed 88 slaving voyages from 1784 to 1807, roughly...
The Triangle Wrecks Survey: A Successful Collaboration between a Federal Agency and Local Dive Shop (2016)
Maritime Archaeologists from the Monitor National Marine Sanctuary teamed up with divers from the Roanoke Island Outfitters and Adventures Dive Shop of Manteo, NC, to complete a survey of one of the most popular shipwreck sites in North Carolina. Following an underwater archaeology training course with avocational divers supported by the dive shop, a full site recording of Carl Gerhard, a freighter wrecked in 1929 off of Kill Devil Hills, NC, was undertaken. Interest ballooned beyond just those...
