The work of Charlotte Beck and George T. Jones dramatically advanced toolstone provenance studies from how to conduct field survey, to how to prepare samples for laboratory analysis. Building on their pioneering work, this paper details the beginning of our efforts in sourcing fine-grained volcanic (FGV) toolstones in the Upper Columbia River area of the interior Pacific Northwest. Handheld portable x-ray fluorescence (HHpXRF) instrumentation was used to non-destructively analyze the FGV...

Prehistoric Production or Enslaved Curation?: An Evaluation of the Temporal and Spatial Distributions of the Lithic Assemblage at The Hermitage. (2018)
The Hermitage assemblage is a treasure trove of 19th-century material culture. However, DAACS analyses have revealed that, in addition to hundreds of thousands of 19th century artifacts, over 23,500 fragments of lithic debitage, projectile points, and tools were unearthed from the plantation complex. This paper examines this lithic assemblage and evaluates whether its presence and distribution is the result of prehistoric Native Americans’ activities at the site or production/curation by the...

Preliminary Analysis of Faunal Remains from the 17th-Century John Hollister Site, Glastonbury, Connecticut (2018)
Recent archaeological investigations at the 17th century John Hollister Site in Glastonbury, Connecticut resulted in the recovery of thousands of extraordinarily well-preserved faunal remains. The diverse assemblage, which includes mammals, birds, fish, and shellfish, was recovered from three large, filled cellar contexts. The food remains provide an unprecedented look at the foodways, animal husbandry strategies, and food procurement activities of Connecticut’s earliest settlers, and...
A Preliminary Analysis of Lead Sheathing and Waterproofing Evidence from Queen Anne's Revenge (1718) (2018)
Throughout history, ocean-going watercraft have been the primary vehicle for global trade, colonization and exploration. Constant wear on ship’s hulls over time, coupled with damage from marine fouling organisms prompted sailors and shipwrights to develop a diverse range of methods and materials to protect their vessels from harm. Nautical sheathing refers to the exterior covering of a ship’s hull with a thin layer of metal or wood to protect the vessel from marine life fouling, and to stabilize...
A Preliminary Autopsy on Coffins Beach, Gloucester, Massachusetts (2017)
From June to September 2014, the remains of a previous unknown shipwreck emerged from the sands of Coffins Beach. Named for the Coffin family and not a funerary item, it is a north facing barrier beach, Gloucester, Massachusetts. Initial field investigation revealed a much older vessel. Detailed documentary research identified up to 80 shipwrecks occurring in the vicinity since 1635; two thirds occurring prior to 1860, chiefly described as shallops, sloops, and early schooners. The extant...

Preliminary findings of a previously unknown historic site on St. Catherines Island, GA (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Recent excavations on St. Catherines Island, GA have uncovered a previously unknown late 18th to early 19th century site. No historic maps or written accounts report any sites or structures in this area. There have been extremely limited excavations related to any sites dating to this time period on St. Catherines Island and this site may be able to bridge a sizable gap in our...
A Preliminary Investigation Of Poydras College (2015)
Poydras College was Catholic boys’ boarding school located off of False River near New Roads, Louisiana. The school was in operation from 1836-1861 with sparse openings during the Civil War before the main building was destroyed by fire in 1881. This presentation will discuss the historical significance of the college as well as the archaeological methods and the historical research aimed at locating the main building and attempting to place the site in the broader context of early efforts in...
Preliminary Observations on the Nathaniel Clark Earthenware Pottery at Marietta, Ohio. (2016)
The Nathaniel Clark pottery was established at Marietta, Ohio, in 1808 and is thus one of the first such operations in the region. Excavations initiated in 2013 have encountered well-preserved features, and have produced a useful sample of product and production debris over three field seasons. Concurrent documentary research is also providing details on the personal and business contexts of the Clark pottery. The location of this manufactory at a major regional hub provides insight regarding...
Preliminary Phytolith Analysis at the John Hollister Site (2018)
This presentation will provide a preliminary phytolith analysis to address foodways and plant use at the John Hollister Site using samples taken from the site’s well-preserved filled cellars. Phytoliths provide a line of analysis that can reinforce and expand upon traditional macroscopic archaeobotanical analyses due to differences in the ways that seeds and phytoliths preserve. Initial phytolith analysis supports the macroscopic archaeobotanical findings that the people at the John Hollister...

Preliminary Report on the Archaeobotany of the John Hollister Site (2018)
This paper reports on and begins the process of addressing research questions related to the archaeobotanical remains from the 17th-century John Hollister Site in Glastonbury, Connecticut. The site boasts an extraordinary level of botanical preservation and promises to be a significant contribution to the understanding of the period’s regional foodways. Initial results suggest a mixture of indigenous plants and taxa that likely entered the region with early European settlement. This mirrors the...
