"With Great Care": High End Porcelain on Black Beacon Hill (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jennifer McCann. Victoria Cacchione.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Meanwhile, In the NPS Lab: Discoveries from the Collections" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. During excavations of the African Meeting House on the north slope of Boston’s famed Beacon Hill, archaeologists collected an intact, gilt decorated porcelain plate from the site’s surface. This plate, with an obscure Latin phrase and boars head emblem, seemed out of place. The maker’s mark on its base puts it...

Within These Walls and Beyond: How the NHPA Saved and Continues to Protect Dry Tortugas National Park (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Bert S. Ho. Larry Murphy.

Dry Tortugas National Park lies approximately 70 miles to the west of Key West in the direct path of the Florida Straits, as the western most terminus of the Florida Keys. Having been desginated initially as a National Monument in 1935, it wasn't until the establishment of the National Historic Preservation Act in 1966 that it truly saw protection from treasure hunters in the pristine reefs, and in a ironic twist, also from the then director of the National Park Service. Shipwrecks and material...

"Without prominent event": the McDonald Site in the Hoosier National Forest (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Joseph P Puntasecca.

The National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) and Section 106 process were enacted to ensure that archaeological knowledge is preserved. One problem this creates is that sites with ambiguous associations to particular occupants or events are offered less protection because their significance is also deemed ambiguous. The McDonald Site (12 OR 509) in the Hoosier National Forest is an example of how an ineligible site can still contribute significant information to local and regional histories....

Without regard for persons: The archaeology of american capitalism (2013)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Christopher Matthews.

In The Archaoelogy of American Capitalism, I examine a diverse range of studies to make the case that the historical archaeology in the United States is well served by a direct analysis of capitalism as a principle context for production, consumption, and cultural experience in America. Whether looking at the fur trade, the Georgian order, the creation of modern cities and industries or the practices of history-making and archaeology itself, I show how the lust for profit and bourgeois...

The Wolf Under the Plaza: Pastoralism and Predation in Spanish New Mexico (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Julia Morris. Severin Fowles.

The nomadic tribes of the Plains—notably, the Comanche and Apache—are typically considered the main obstacles to the northern expansion of the Spanish empire in North America. But early Spanish settlers in New Mexico found themselves up against another formidable foe that has received far less attention in the literature: the wolf. Indeed, for an expanding pastoral society, the wolf posed perhaps the biggest threat to local economic welfare. In this paper, we report on the recent discovery of a...

Women and Children First: The Archaeology of Motherhood and Childhood on San Francisco’s Yerba Buena Cove (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Teresa D. Bulger.

Popular images of the maritime industry in places like San Francisco’s Yerba Buena Cove often focus on men — whether working on docks or ships, or on land at iron works and carpenter’s shops. Less visible in the historical record of these spaces are the women and children also living, and often working, along the waterfront. Historical research on the neighborhood that bordered Yerba Buena Cove in the late-19th-century suggests that most residences were occupied by families, rather than by...

Women as Actors in Systems of Violence: Their Roles and Identities in the Precolonial US Southwest (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Kathryn Baustian. Claira Ralston. Maryann Calleja. Debra Martin.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. When examining violence in archaeological contexts, the roles of females have often been undertheorized or omitted completely. Violence research is quick to identify males as warriors and aggressors but women should not be ignored as actors in past violence. Our perception and interpretation of females as actively engaged in violent interactions in the...

Women in 16thCentury San Juan, Puerto Rico: Material Culture and Gender Role Contradictions (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Julissa A. Collazo López.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Considering Frontiers Beyond the Romantic: Spaces of Encroachment, Innovation, and Far Reaching Entanglements" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. This paper will address women’s role in 16thcentury San Juan, Puerto Rico, through documentary sources produced by the Royal Treasury. Their role made part of the sociocultural transformations that were caused by the intensity of the Spanish conquest in the so called...

Women Warriors among Central California Hunter-Gatherers: Egalitarians to the Last Arrow (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Al Schwitalla. Marin Pilloud. Terry Jones.

This is an abstract from the "Women of Violence: Warriors, Aggressors, and Perpetrators of Violence" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Participation of females in inter-group combat is well-attested in the historic and ethnographic record of central California, but is often overlooked and/or trivialized in contemporary archaeological research. Drawing from the Central California Bioarchaeological Database (CCBD) that includes information on more than...

Women's Leadership and Ritual Specialization in Coast Miwok and Kashia Pomo Cultures (2024)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Sandra Hollimon.

This is an abstract from the "AD 1150 to the Present: Ancient Political Economy to Contemporary Materiality—Archaeological Anthropology in Honor of Jeanne E. Arnold" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Employing theoretical and interpretive frameworks influenced by the research of Jeanne E. Arnold, I examine the roles of women in the ritual organizations of these two Native California cultures. I address the antiquity of these ritual systems and the...

Women's Mobility and Inter-Pueblo Exchange in the Salinas area, AD 1100–1300 (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Matthew Chamberlin.

Katherine Spielmann's work in the Salinas Pueblo area of New Mexico has, among other things, emphasized how ritual and economic interconnectivity among late prehistoric pueblo villages articulates with internal social and cultural changes. One thread of this work, developed by several of her students, has been change in gender relations during the rise of the large towns of the Pueblo IV period (AD 1400–1600), especially involving women's roles in exchange, production, and ceremonial life....

Women’s Time Allocation Trade-Offs in an Intensive Foraging Economy Led to Future Discounting Reproductive Behavior (2021)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Alexandra Greenwald.

This is an abstract from the "Life Is Risky: Human Behavioral Ecological Approaches to Variable Outcomes " session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Population growth during the Medieval Climatic Anomaly (MCA) (1100–600 BP) and into the Late period (~600–180 BP) in Central California drove increased intensification and reliance on low-ranking, low-risk food sources, primarily acorn and small seeds inland, and shellfish and small schooling fish on the bay...
