Archaeologies of the Norman Conquest (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Naomi Sykes. Elizabeth Craig-Atkins. Ben Jervis. Aleksandra McClain.

This is an abstract from the "Mind the Gap: Exploring Uncharted Territories in Medieval European Archaeology" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Despite the long-standing truism in archaeology that the Norman Conquest of England is largely invisible in ‘the stuff of everyday life’, an abundance of material remains dating to the 11th and 12th centuries has been recovered through excavation and still survives above ground. It is now becoming clear that...

Archaeology and Offshore Development: Advancing our Archaeological Understanding through Collaboration with Industry (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Louise Tizzard.

The last 15 years have seen a massive increase in offshore development around the UK which has provided archaeologists the opportunity to find and examine new sites from areas of seafloor, in deeper waters and further from the coastline than was previously possible.   In particular, collaboration between archaeologists, geologists, engineers and other stakeholders has significantly advanced our understanding of preservation of inundated palaeolandscapes over large areas, and the potential for...

Archaeology and Tourism in the Early 20th Century: Pompeii through a Photographic Archive (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Rebecca Salem. Effie F. Athanassopoulos.

Since its rediscovery in 1748, Pompeii has remained a destination for travelers and tourists from around the globe. Originally, a tourist destination during the Grand Tour, mainly in the 17th-18th centuries, Pompeii attracted the educated elite. In the course of the 19th century, the site was transformed into an open-air museum and became accessible to a broader group of visitors seeking an authentic experience. This presentation offers a glimpse at a tourist’s experience in the early 1900s...


Archaeology as Activism: Cultural Heritage, Identity, and Sustainability in Transylvanian Mining Communities (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Lana Dorr. Jada Langston. Sophia Coren. Horia Ciugudean. Colin Quinn.

This is an abstract from the "Advancing Public Perceptions of Sustainability through Archaeology" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Activism through ethical community engagement is now a requirement, rather than an elective, of all scholars. Archaeologists have a responsibility to mobilize our understanding of the past, especially to achieve mutual goals we have with modern community partners with whom we work. As an example, we present a case study...

Beaudry (1950-2020)" , at the 2022 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. During her career and life as a scholar, educator, mentor, colleague and friend, Mary Beaudry inspired us. To her, objects were not mere tools, but elements in discourse, products and conveyors of culture. She encouraged us to think as archaeologists, seeking solution of problems...


Archaeology of a nautical battle: the investigation of the Italian-French brig Mercurio (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Carlo Beltrame.

The Mercurio was a brig of the Italian-French fleet that was sunk by an English brig in the north Adriatic Sea in 1812. Underwater investigation of the site has allowed the research team to document a part of the prow and the stern and to recover about 900 finds. What are the goals of the investigation of a military ship from the beginning of the 19th century? Can it add new information to our knowledge of ship construction; of the equipment, crew, and everyday life aboard a military ship of...


An Archaeology of Belonging: A Theory and its Practice in a Colonial Situation (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Melonie R Shier.

An archaeology of belonging explores a new and developing element in the field of archaeology; using elements of attachment to place with landscape identity as a theoretical tool to look at the colonial and diasporic expansion of non-Amerindian populations into the San Emigdio Hills, South Central California. Although the theme of belonging was recently discussed in the International Journal of Historical Archaeology (published 2012) and some archaeologists have worked with attachment to place...


An archaeology of counter-insurgency: Spanish military trochas and reconcentration camps in Cuba (1895-1898). (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Alberto P. Marti.

During the Cuban War for Independence, blockhouses and defensive lines (the so-called trochas) were constructed in order to divide the island into separate sectors that could be gradually 'disinfected' of insurgents. The non-combatant population was removed from rural areas and resettled in a number of fortified towns where they would be 'protected' by Spanish troops. This counter-insurgency tactic led to the indiscriminate confinement of hundred thousands of civilians and is usually referred as...

The Archaeology of Gossip: Delineating the Space of Interpersonal Performance (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Alexander Brown.

Much of the literature on performance in cultural and political spheres in archaeology over the last 4 decades has focused on social memory. This paper shifts that discussion from the arena of public commemoration and cultural rites to the de facto performances of the domestic sphere. Private, interpersonal interactions are important in the transmission and creation of social memory as well- they place an individual’s social world in the context of shared social memory, and vice versa. Gossip is...


Archaeology of High-Mountain Pastoral Campsites in the High-Pyrenees (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Arnau Garcia. Héctor A. Orengo. Tania Polonio. Josep M. Palet.

This is an abstract from the "Empirical Approaches to Mobile Pastoralist Households" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. European high-mountain landscapes are nowadays characterized by the presence of pastures and grasslands. Archaeological and palaeoenvironmental research conducted during the last decades are picturing these environments as long-term cultural productions, resulting from complex environment-society interactions. Since prehistory,...


Archaeology of Materials: An Overview of Amber Use in Prehistory (2021)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Agne Civilyte.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Amber is still today a material which is highly appreciated in modern societies. To use amber means to be part of the tradition of thousands of years. The topic "amber in prehistory" became very popular in the last decades in European archaeology. It shows a huge potential for understanding the use practices of special materials in prehistoric societies....


Archaeology of Modern Pollution (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Elisabeth Waldhart.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Post-medieval Archaeology and Pollution", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Pollution as part of archaeological sites does not necessarily have to be part of the primary research question or period under study. It can also be part of the taphonomic processes that occur after the site has been abandoned by its former inhabitants, while excavations are taking place there, and when it eventually becomes a site of...


The Archaeology of Pet Taxidermy (2020)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Eric Tourigny.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Mortuary Monuments and Archaeology: Current Research" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The 19th century is considered a watershed for changing human-animal relationships in North America and Europe. During this time, pets occupied increasingly central roles within households, animal welfare institutions became more widespread and animal breeding practices were standardized. In Victorian Britain, public pet...


The Archaeology of Pineapples: An excavation of a Vinery-Pinery in Scotland (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Doug Rocks-Macqueen.

This paper reviews the most recent finds from the multi-year excavation at Aimsfield Walled Garden, the largest walled garden in Scotland (debated), in East Lothian, Scotland. It includes an examination of the surrounding landscape and how this was altered to provide a unique view and projection of power and wealth. The recent excavations of the vinery-pinery are presented to show an example of how pineapples were grown in Scotland in the 1700s and into the 1800s. The connection this site has to...
