Augmented, Hyper-mediated and IRL (2018)
While archaeologists are making leaps and bounds integrating digital technologies into their work-flow and interpretive strategies, an over-emphasis on the virtual has left a hole where thinking about how archaeologists, collaborators, stakeholders and the public actually encounter archaeology — IN REAL LIFE. While many post about living in a post-digital age, their is a kernel of truth to how many collaborators, especially youth, conceive of their worlds not as full of new media but as, "always...
August 1989 Meeting Minutes, Ballast House, Blossom Point Field Test Facility (1989)
Meeting Minutes for a 1 August 1989 meeting in regards to the relocation of the Ballast House at Blossom Point, Maryland. The summary in section 7 of the minutes is as follows. Paul McGuff will try to obtain the funds for the research of Architectural, Archaeological, and Historical reports. Moving the house is NOT viable or feasible nor does the stabilization of the shoreline appear to be a feasible option. Fast-track a plan to determine the final outcome of the Ballast House.
The Aura of Things: Locating Authenticity and the Power of Objects (2016)
This paper is about authenticity and the aura, the authority and power of the physical object, historicity and the persistence of the past, and alternatives to scientific archaeology. It is about science fiction, 20th century theorists, 21st century technology, and contemporary landscapes. This paper examines concepts of authenticity and reproduction and how material culture is used in Philip K. Dick’s Hugo award-winning 1962 novel "The Man in the High Castle" as well as in Walter Benjamin’s...
Aurora Site
The Aurora site was previously named the Harris site after the family name of the landowner. Shovel testing was carried out at this site from July 25, 1978 to Aug. 3, 1978. Crews returned and continued shovel testing the following summer from July 25, 1979 to July 30, 1979. Shovel test pits were excavated throughout the test area which encompasses the two separate swampy areas on the Harris farm. A single artifact was uncovered by the SUNY at Albany 1978 summer investigation. This bovid...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Telling a Tale of One Ship with Two Names: Queen Anne’s Revenge and La Concorde" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Through the installation of a demonstration laboratory at the Beaufort North Carolina Maritime Museum, the North Carolina Maritime Museum System and the Queen Anne’s Revenge Project have worked together to increase the educational impact of the Queen Anne’s Revenge (QAR) exhibit. The introduction...
Authority via Mobility: Interpreting Yamasee Ceramics (2018)
Yamasees worked as non-missionized laborers in Spanish Florida, raided for Charleston traders, fought to expand Georgia, lived with Creek Indians, and worked as diplomats and traders in Pensacola. Letters, speeches, and testimony demonstrate that this mobility— often leading them to outnumber local occupants— allowed Yamasees to dictate terms to and take vengeance against other Native Americans as well as Europeans. Despite such authority, pottery assemblages demonstrate the frequent adoption of...
Automated Identification of Archaeological Features in a Regional Lidar Dataset from Southeastern New Mexico (2021)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In 2014, the Carlsbad Field Office of the Bureau of Land Management acquired 372 square miles of high resolution lidar data in an experimental attempt to map archaeological features over a wide area of southeastern New Mexico. The features of interest were burned rock middens with a distinctive topographic signature. If successful, this effort would have had...
Automatic Classification of Mimbres Pottery Styles through Convolutional Neural Networks (2021)
This is an abstract from the "Research Hot Off the Trowel in the Upper Gila and Mimbres Areas" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This poster describes our attempt to address some long-standing questions about Mimbres pottery through convolutional neural network-based classifiers. Over the past few years the field of computer vision has made major strides in classification and segmentation tasks particularly due to the availability of rich training...
Autonomous Landscapes at Fort Mose (2023)
This is an abstract from the "Seeking Freedom in the Borderlands: Archaeological Perspectives on Maroon Societies in Florida" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Fort Mose was the first legally sanctioned free Black community in North America.

These continued and proposed actions -include weapons...
AVENUE OF THE SAINTS, MISSOURI: SUMMARY OF CLIMATE MODELS AND PALEOENVIRONMENT USING STRATIGRAPHIC POLLEN AND PHYTOLITH RECORDS (2010)
Sediment samples, collected from stratigraphic columns from three sites (23Ck57, 23Ck302, and 23Le174), were examined for pollen and phytoliths to provide information concerning the paleoenvironment along the Avenue of the Saints corridor in northeastern Missouri. The time periods represented by these stratigraphic samples include the Late Pleistocene at the base of 23Ck57, the Middle Holocene (6300-5500 BP) at 23Le174, and approximately 3510-2550 BP at 23Ck302. The samples 23Ck57 and 23Le174...
Avian Iconography at Spiro Mounds (2021)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Much of the research and scholarship in Southeastern iconography focused on birds and avian or avian anthropomorphic imagery emphasizes connections to warfare, especially raptors and woodpeckers. While some research has discussed how birds relate to broader patterns in iconography, notable gaps in literature exist pertaining to how birds are integrated into...
Aviators Down! Tuskegee Airmen in Michigan (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Strides Towards Standard Methodologies in Aeronautical Archaeology" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. During the middle years of World War II, Michigan was selected by the U.S. Army Air Force as a place for advanced training of African-American pilots that had graduated from the Tuskegee flight program in Alabama. The potential for Tuskegee Airmen-related archaeological sites worldwide is low. Outside of...

This is an abstract from the "Celebrating 20 Years of Support: Current Work by Recipients of the Dienje Kenyon Memorial Fellowship for Zooarchaeologists" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The final regression of Lake Bonneville during the Pleistocene/Holocene transition resulted in dramatic environmental changes in the Bonneville basin, followed by further environmental fluctuations throughout the Holocene. Recent research of faunal and floral...
