Oyster shell is one of the most frequently recovered materials from archaeological sites in the Chesapeake, but they are often un- or underutilized in archaeological interpretations.  In an effort to explore what information these shells can provide, Colonial Williamsburg's Environmental Archaeology Laboratory has been engaged in an on-going, multi-site, multi-disciplinary, synchronic and diachronic program of research to investigate how oysters recovered from sites in the Virginia Tidewater can...

During the late-19th and early-20th centuries, the sex trade flourished in New Orleans throughout the city, despite legislative efforts at spatial restriction. Guides to the Storyville red-light district (1897-1917) containing advertisements for both places to buy sex and places to eat and drink suggest that food played a significant role in the business of commercial sex. Landscape analysis using data derived from censes, city business directories, newspapers, and other historical sources...

In the past twenty years, historical archaeology in the American West has developed into a mature field of study. Prior to this time, with a few notable exceptions, historical archaeology in the United States was firmly rooted to the east of the Mississippi. Many budding historical archaeologists in the west went east to become initiated to the discipline. For many of these undergraduate and graduate students, Marley Brown was an embedded westerner, who opened the door of the eastern...

This is a poster submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Out of the 30 dugout canoes located in Lake Phelps, four canoes or canoe fragments have been recovered. Since their recovery in the 1980s, one or more of the dugouts have been on exhibit in multiple places around the state over the years, including such places as the North Carolina Museum of History, the welcome center at Pettigrew State Park, the maritime museum in Plymouth, NC, and the...

During the 17th and 18th centuries, the Lake Champlain-Richelieu River Corridor was a ‘border-zone’, highly contested between the Native and European powers of the Atlantic world.  In the summer of 2012, a team of archaeologists, educators and artists undertook a canoe-based landscape archaeological survey of the region.  The team investigated colonial period forts and Native sites with the goal of discerning whether the placement of sites within the landscape was purely strategic, or whether...

Undocumented migrants crossing the Sonoran Desert must survive the dangers of extreme heat and rugged terrain, while simultaneously avoiding apprehension and physical abuse by the US Border Patrol. A successful migration attempt therefore depends, in part, on the ability to endure or alleviate pain experienced en route. In order to better understand how health concerns play into the strategies and experiences of migrants, this paper presents an analysis of pharmaceutical and aid-related...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Frontiers are dynamic regions of integration and exclusion where identity and culture are negotiated. The relationships between the heartlands of the North American Southwest and many of its resulting frontiers have been explored; however, it is still not clear how interaction between Fremont peoples and those in the greater Southwest influenced identity...

Appearance-related artifacts from the Vanoli Block (5OR30), a late 19th and early 20th century sporting complex in the mining town of Ouray, Colorado, indicate that both the women working in the cribs and their patrons projected a working-class appearance.  An examination of artifacts through the lenses of performance and practice theory is supplemented with historical data regarding class, gender, and costume, and suggests that the sartorial choices made by these women and men emerged from the...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Before, After, and In Between: Archaeological Approaches to Places (through/in) Time" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In 1793, trustees of Liberty Hall Academy – the forerunner of Washington and Lee University (W&L) – built a steward’s house for student dining near the main academic structure. When the latter burned in 1803, the institution moved to its current location. The former campus became a...

     Environmental data collected near prehistoric archaeological sites along the Blackwater River and Bay Complex, Santa Rosa County Florida were used to create a paleoenvironmental reconstruction. Presented here are the methods employed, which include: remote sensing, vibracoring, the analysis of radon isotope tracers using a RAD7 detecting unit, and particle size distribution analysis (PSA) using a Malvern Mastersizer 3000.      Identifying and documenting submarine groundwater discharge...

J. Whittaker: “Velocity-dependent fractures on fluted points reveal fracture rates associated with high-velocity impacts, indicating the use of the spearthrower” No clear evidence of Clovis atlatl, but early dates on hooks from Marmes Rockshelter and Warm Mineral Springs, both 9-10,000 BP, others. Summarizes Clovis and Folsom tool kits and hunting strategies. Problems of classifying points as dart or arrow tips, criticizes Odell’s flake point hypothesis – accidental fractures look similar. ...

The landscapes of sawmill company towns are complex palimpsests formed from an array of practices and structures that influenced daily life. They served as sites of socioeconomic order, industry, inequality, and persistence for a diverse array of inhabitants. This paper will explore the complex and multi-vocal nature of such landscapes through a multi-scalar analysis of the spatial organization and context of a first-generation Japanese American (Issei) community at Barneston, Washington...

The military terrain analysis system KOCOA (Key Terrain, Observation,Cover/concealment, Obstacles, and Avenues of approach), or OAKOC, or OCOKA was developed as part of the burgeoning discipline of military science around the start of the American Civil War. It is now part of the NPS’s American Battlefield Protection Program’s survey methodology, was introduced to conflict archaeology by Scott and McFeaters (2011:115-16) and Scott and Bleed (2011:47-49), and has been used as a tool for...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Advocacy in Archaeology: Thoughts from the Urban Frontier" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Forty years ago, seventeen New York City archaeologists met on a cold Saturday afternoon in an unheated New York University classroom to form a new organization. The organizers were three local archaeology professors and the participants included their graduate students (I among them) and archaeological professionals....

The Milwaukee County Poor Farm Cemetery (MCPFC) is located in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin. This historic cemetery was in use from 1878 to 1974 and interred Milwaukee County’s indigent. The individuals represented consist mostly of poor European immigrants, subsequent generations, institutionalized residents, and the unclaimed deceased. Included in the array material culture recovered during 1991-1992 and 2013 archaeological excavations are newspaper fragments. These primary documents survive in varying...

Nowhere else in our society are we as cognizant of the cultural landscape of our communities as in our historic cemeteries. Burying grounds are not merely components of a community’s physical landscape, but they also reflect the community over time. Markers and monuments are often the only structures that survive as physical testaments to individuals. Florida’s cemeteries are the repositories of last statements and speak to both the individual and collective cultural makeup of the communities...

Beginning in the 1950s, Florida witnessed a fascinating and tumultuous series of events concerning the salvage of historic shipwrecks. Before the Abandoned Shipwreck Act of 1987, many historic shipwrecks in Florida were actively salvaged with little regard for their archaeological value. Currently, Aruba is experiencing similar salvage activity coupled with a lack of comprehensive legislation that protects terrestrial and submerged archaeological sites. This paper draws parallels between...
