"Where Slavery Died Hard:" The Forgotten History of Ulster County, New York (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Wendy E. Harris. Arnold Pickman.

Diana Wall has inspired our interest in archaeological and historical aspects of African-Americans and women in eighteenth and nineteenth-century America. Using various primary sources we have been exploring the experiences of enslaved men, women and children in Ulster County, New York, informed in part by accounts of the life of one of the most famous women in American history, Sojourner Truth, a renowned abolitionist, feminist and orator, who was born and raised a slave here in the 1790s....

Where to Inhabit First? Interpreting Western Stemmed Tradition Land-Use with the Ideal Free Distribution Model in Lake County, Oregon (2021)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Megan McGuinness.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In the Intermountain West there is mounting evidence that some Western Stemmed Tradition (WST) points are as old, if not older, than Clovis points on the Plains and in the Southwest. Given this, the distribution of WST points may hold the key to understanding how people initially populated the Far West. I use WST point and site location data in Lake County,...

"Whereon ye Ould Foart Stood…:" Geophysical and archaeological investigations at the site of Fort Casimir, New Castle, Delaware (2013)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Wade Catts. Peter Leach. Craig Lukezic.

Fort Casimir, also known as Fort Trefaldighet, was a seventeenth-century fortification situated along the Delaware River. The fort changed hands four times in its short career – built by the Dutch in 1651, captured by the Swedes in 1654, retaken by the Dutch in 1655, and finally seized by the English in 1664. Serving as a focal point of early colonial settlement in the Delaware River valley, its precise location remains both elusive and intriguing to Delaware archeologists. The first attempt to...

Which glass found on American sites was American made? Archaeological collections as resources for glass research (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Ian D Simmonds. Sarah Stroud Clarke. Brandy Culp. Suzanne Findlen Hood. Kelly Ladd-Kostro. Martha Zierden.

How should the curator of the Nathaniel Russell house in Charleston, South Carolina, decide what glass to acquire to better interpret the house for the public? Can she use Colonial Williamsburg as a guide or is Charleston, as usual, a special case? Elsewhere, glass scholars have long known that Henry William Stiegel of Manheim, Pennsylvania manufactured fine lead glass, selling it widely, including in Charleston. How can we broaden our understanding of his production and that of his...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Curtis Schaafsma. Polly Schaafsma.

This is an abstract from the "Tales of the Feathered Serpent: Refining Our Understanding of an Enigmatic Mesoamerican Being" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In many parts of the world including the Americas, snakes are incorporated into symbolic and metaphorical constructs in order to better describe and understand natural and social components of various cosmologies. As a result, their depictions are often enhanced with attributes that depart from...
