Fire up the Uhmw: Deciphering Botanical Residues from Earth Ovens in Pohnpei, Federated States of Micronesia (2017)
In Pohnpei, Micronesia, the uhmw, or earth oven, is one important way of preparing food. These ovens are typically located in cookhouses next to residential sites. Pohnpeians use heated stones on the ground to cook food and cover items with large leaves while cooking. It is clear that umhw are a long-standing Pohnpeian tradition, as multiple examples have been found in the archaeological record. In this paper, we ask what botanical residues from uhmw can tell us about the prehistory and history...

First Government House datasets (2005)
Complete suite of artefact datasets from the First Government House site, as upgraded for the Exploring the Archaeology of the Modern City project. It combines two datasets created for the main series of excavations from 1983 and 1987, and excavations in Young Street and Raphael Place in 1991. The data was originally created by teams working for Anne Bickford and Wendy Thorp.
Fishponds and Aquaculture in the Ancient Hawaiian Political Economy (2017)
The political economy of ancient Hawai'i, prior to European contact in 1778-79, has often been characterized as based primarily on a "staple economy" with highly intensified forms of both irrigated and dryland agriculture. Less appreciated is the role of intensive aquaculture of two species (milkfish and mullet) using several kinds of often extensive fishponds. This paper explores the role and significance of such aquaculture in the late pre-contact Hawaiian political economy, drawing especially...

Formal variation in Australian spear and spearthrower technology (1989)
J. Whittaker: [Actually covers only Central Australia and the northern half of the Northern Territory so some important types and variation not included. A very good study although marred by many typos and almost no illustrations of spearthrowers and spears. One of the best sources on spearthrower mechanics and physics, but the explanations are not always clear. I’ve translated into English as much as I can.] 1. Intro: Variation should be explained by technological and functional factors as...

Garapan and San Roque: Case Studies from Saipan, CNMI (2017)
This paper takes site data from two recently excavated locales on Saipan and discusses the archaeology, physical anthropology, and bioarchaeology of the sites. The goal is to frame these within larger questions of origins, changes in the island's demography through time, and to assess several migration models for settlement of Saipan and the Northern Marianas.
Geographic Variability in the Onset and Intensification of Swidden Cultivation on Viti Levu, Fiji (2017)
At some point between initial colonization and first contact with Europeans, Fijian economies transformed from being dependent upon marine foraging to dependence upon intensive agriculture. The timing and spatial pattern of this transition has beguiled archaeologists because the archaeology of Post-Lapita, "Mid Sequence" archaeology has been so scantily preserved and recovered. We employed geoarchaeological coring of terrestrial soil and sedimentary sequences along a transect from near the coast...
The Global Effort to Train Diving Archaeologists: the UNESCO UNITWIN Network for Underwater Archaeology (2017)
Underwater archaeology, which has emerged as a distinct sub-discipline, has its own specific practical and theoretical debates, issues and history. Education in underwater archaeology, however, is challenging. In practice, the study and professional activity merges maritime sectors and industry with traditional academic archaeology. The UNITWIN Network for Underwater Archaeology aims to increase capacity through international cooperation. The Network is designed to enhance the protection and...
Go West Young Man...Woman and Child?: Investigating Shasta County's population during the Californian Gold Rush (2013)
The gold rush brought many things to California, including statehood, wealth, and prominence, but most noticeabley it brought people. Before the gold rush, California only boasted a population of 162,000 people, but by the end there were more than 380,000 people, the majority being immigrants from different states and countries. The majority of the literature concerning the demographic flux of the gold rush is focused on the area known as the Mother Lode, where gold was initially discovered....

Head Tells Tales – The Life and Times of Rodney, a Convict Transport Vessel Wrecked at Kenn Reefs, Coral Sea (2018)
Archival research, in conjunction with data obtained from a collaborative expedition to Kenn Reefs, Australian Coral Sea Territory, undertaken by the Silentworld Foundation and Australian National Maritime Museum, has revealed the likely wreck site of mid-19th century convict transport vessel, Rodney. Over its lifetime Rodney transported hundreds of convicts and government passengers (free settlers) to Australia. It was one of many privately-owned ships that undertook this work. However, these...
