White, Red, and Plain Wares in the Tonto Basin: Precursor Correlate of Culture Change (2019)
This is an abstract from the "WHY PLATFORM MOUNDS? PART 1: MOUND DEVELOPMENT AND CASE STUDIES" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. We present a consideration of Roosevelt Black-on-white, recovered from archaeological sites in Arizona's Tonto Basin, as a correlate for Tonto Basin populations’ changing exchange relations as well as emulation through production of locally-produced copies of non-local wares. Implications of broad-scale ceramic exchange,...
Whitehall's Restoration: A Tribute To Horatio Sharpe, A Reflection Of Charles Scarlett (2017)
Colonel Horatio Sharpe, governor of colonial Maryland for sixteen years, left behind a testament to his position and wealth in the form of Whitehall, his plantation home on the Severn River. The home has been through many renovations, but in the 1950s, a man named Charles Scarlett bought the home and passionately attempted to restore it to its original glory. The restoration included building an earthwork fortification that at first glance appears to have been part of the original layout,...
Whiteness in Relation: Black Studies and the Racializing Assemblages of the Antebellum South (2023)
This is an abstract from the "Deepening Archaeology's Engagement with Black Studies" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. For decades, Black Studies scholars have provided powerful, far-ranging critiques of the concept of race and the processes of racialization. Yet, when applied to archaeological case studies, these concepts are often only used to discuss the lives of Africans and their diasporic descendants. However, as Black Studies scholars point...
Whither Seneca Village? (2016)
From its inception in 1997, the Seneca Village Project has been dedicated to the study of this 19th-century African-American community located in today’s Central Park in New York City. We made this long-term commitment because of the important contribution that we think the project can make to the larger narrative of the US experience. Seneca Village belies the conventional wisdom that there were few Africans in the north before the great migration of the 20th century, and that, before...
Whither The Tavern Pattern? (2018)
A rigorous vessel form comparison of two archaeological assemblages in the collections of Plimoth Plantation, those recovered from the Wellfleet tavern site on Great Island, and the Joseph Howland site, located in Kingston, Massachusetts, represented the first careful study of a tavern component in relation to a domestic one. This paper evaluates the original interpretive framework of that early study, framed in terms of occupational differences of site owners, in view of the changing...
Who Died Prematurely?: A Demographic Profile of Middle and Late Period San Francisco Bay Area Juveniles (2024)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This study explores the demographic profile of a Middle and Late Period juvenile burial assemblage from a San Francisco Bay Area site, CA-ALA-329 (bearing the Muwekma Ohlone name of Mánni Muwékma Kúksú Hóowok Yatiš Túnnešte-tka, or Place Where the People of the Kúksú (Bighead) Pendants are Buried). Sex-ratio was established using a proteomics...
Who is "Free" Today?: Negotiating the documentary record of labor history for archaeology (2015)
Beginning with Marx, labor history was founded upon illuminating the role the working class can play in challenging our system of political economy. As vogelfrei (literally "bird-free") or rightless, unprotected bodies condemned to only sell their labor, the lives of the working class have been imagined to inhabit a kind of empty raw inertia propelling mass social change. Labor history has responded to this basic idea throughout its disciplinary history, changing with material, political,...
Who Lies Buried Here? The Campo Santo at the Spanish Colonial San Diego Presidio: Gender, Status, Ethnicity (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Plus Ultra: An examination of current research in Spanish Colonial/Iberian Underwater and Terrestrial Archaeology in the Western Hemisphere." , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Mission San Diego de Alcalá’s records from Spanish and Mexican era San Diego, California coupled with the results of archaeological excavation at Presidio de San Diego offer a unique opportunity to characterize life and death within...
Who Owns the Past? The Murder of James Wakasa and His Memorial Stone (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Eighty years ago, James Wakasa was shot and killed while walking his dog in the Utah desert. Wakasa was one of 120,000 Japanese Americans incarcerated during World War II because of their ethnicity; he had been imprisoned at the Topaz Relocation Center and his killer was a Military Police guard. In a finding that would sound all too familiar even today, an...
Who Tells Your Story? Utilizing Legacy Collections to Serve a Living Culture (2019)
This is an abstract from the ""Re-excavating" Legacy Collections" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Unlike most archaeological collections, those held and curated by the Seminole Tribe of Florida (STOF) represent a living culture, and tribal understanding of those archaeological collections is a fluid, dynamic entity. The unique relationship between the Tribal Historic Preservation Office (THPO) and STOF requires an adherence to and respect of...
Who Was The Woman In The Iron Coffin? (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In 2011, the body of an African-American woman who had died from smallpox was discovered buried in a Fisk metallic burial case in Elmhurst, Queens, New York. Her level of preservation made it necessary to contact the Center for Disease Control to confirm that the virus was no longer viable. Analysis of the woman’s remains provided ground-breaking insights into how smallpox colonizes...
Who Was Where: Georectification and Radiometric Dating of a Mississippian Mortuary Complex (2018)
The Orendorf site is a Mississippian village and mortuary complex located in west-central Illinois. Salvage excavations between 1970 to 1990 have yielded one of the largest and best-preserved skeletal assemblages in the central Illinois River valley. The human skeletal assemblage from the Orendorf site has been ideal for a wide variety of bioarchaeological research, both invasive and non-invasive. Despite the attention given to the individuals, research focusing on the burial contexts and...
Who/What Is In That Vial? (2018)
Archaeologists typically conceptualize the "material" in an integrated analysis of material culture and biological data as artifacts/objects/things recovered through excavation from an historic mortuary setting. However, further explorations of meaning are possible when the definition of material encompasses both what is recovered and produced by archaeologists. Destructive testing, as a component of bioarchaeological analysis, creates additional materialized relationships between the living and...
