This is an abstract from the "Culinary Archaeology" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In history, Barbara Haber has made the distinction between academic food history and culinary history grounded in knowledge of recipes and cooking techniques. This paper uses the case study of the Female Immigration Depot (1848–1887) in Sydney, Australia, to consider what a culinary archaeology would look like. The site, at Sydney’s Hyde Park Barracks, features...

In attending to the life or lives of things, biographical approaches in archaeology focus attention to the vitality of objects in change and to narrative. Torres Strait Islander biographies similarly explore themes around the transformation of things though tend rather more to emphasise place in structuring historical narratives. In Torres Strait, history is emplaced, encountered and generative. This paper traces the pathways of Mualgal (the people of Mua Island, western Torres Strait, NE...

This is an abstract from the "Painting the Past: Interpretive Approaches in Global Rock Art Research" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Dampier Archipelago (including Burrup Peninsula) is one of Australia’s most significant rock art provinces. Recently nominated to the World Heritage List as the Murujuga Cultural Landscape, this talk describes efforts which are being made to directly-date this deep time rock art sequence, by innovative direct...

Working with Yanyuwa elders, we collected seven rock painting samples for radiocarbon dating from Kamadarringabaya rock shelter on Vanderlin Island in the southwest Gulf of Carpentaria (Northern Territory). Hand motifs – prints and stencils – dominate the site, covering the shelter walls and roof, and are said by Yanyuwa to be the hands of the Namurlajanyugku spirit beings. In control experiments, negligible levels of humic acid contamination were shown to be present in the unpainted rock;...

The coffin was the centerpiece of the Victorian-era funeral and the most expensive material purchase made by the family or friends of the deceased. As with all events played out in public, the coffin was subject to the dictates of fashion. Beginning with the origins of mass-produced coffin furniture in eighteenth century England, this paper explores two divergent histories of coffin decoration through the Victorian era. An analysis of materials recovered from Brisbane, Australia looks at...

In May 2017, maritime archaeologists affiliated with the Australian National Maritime Museum (ANMM) and Indonesia’s Pusat Arkeologi Nasional (ARKENAS) conducted a survey and site assessment of HMAS Perth (I), a modified Leander class light cruiser sunk by the Imperial Japanese Navy during the Battle of Sunda Strait in March 1942. When discovered in 1967, Perth’s wreck site was almost completely intact, save for battle damage and subsequent deterioration caused by natural transformative...

J. Whittaker: Ethnographic specimens: 33 hand-thrown and 293 spear thrower spears [unfortunately not illustrated]. Hypothesized diffusion after 10,000 bp, but thrower not used all over Australia. Two length groups of spear thrower spears: 1) average 160 cm, 2) average 260cm. Hand-thrown spears average 267 cm. Mass: Hand-thrown average 740 gm, thrower average 246 gm. Decreased mass allows maximum velocity - led to composite reed spears, with hardwood points. Balance: spear thrower spears:...
