Cedar Shakes, Red Clay Bricks, and the Great Fire: Walloon-Speaking Belgians on Wisconsin’s Door Peninsula (2013)
Encouraged by earlier emigrants as well as boosterism by steamship companies, some 60,000 Belgians immigrated to the United States before 1900. A particularly dense concentration of Walloon speakers settled the southern portion of Wisconsin’s Door Peninsula and by 1860 over 60% of this area was Belgian owned. Today, the area harbors the largest concentration of Belgian-American vernacular architecture in North America and is remarkable for the presence of well-preserved agrarian landscapes as...

Here we share our appreciation of Ramenofsky’s clarity of intellect through presentations of research, stories of collaboration, and discussions of her contributions. This paper...
Celebrating the Design Work of Bettye J. Broyles (2021)
This is an abstract from the "Female Firsts: Celebrating Archaeology’s Pioneering Women on the 101st Anniversary of the 19th Amendment " session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Like many archaeologists, the late Bettye J. Broyles discovered what she wanted to do in her twenties while enrolled in college. It was there where Broyles’s archaeological career began to take shape, and by summer of 1954 she had embarked on her first field school. Broyles went on...

The Society for Historical Archaeology, the Society for American Archaeology, and the Register of Professional Archaeologists– in partnership with the American Cultural Resources Association and the Archaeological Legacy Institute (home of The Archaeology Channel) are supporting a nationwide initiative to highlight some of the important things we have...
Celebration and the mining way of life in Magistral del Oro Durango (2017)
In this paper I present the historic and archaeological records, of social gatherings that formed an integral part of the mining way of life and the material culture that represents it. The study is focused on the town of Magistral del Oro, Durango in northern Mexico. This region was forged by mining activity in colonial times. Though the village today has been largely abandoned, traces of both labor and domestic areas still remain. Furthermore, photographs and interviews with people who worked...
Cellar Sumps and Moisture Management: 18th and 19th Century Drainage Features (2018)
During excavations conducted by Thunderbird Archeology on the waterfront in Old Town Alexandria, Virginia multiple building foundations were uncovered near the historic coastline of the port city that contained evidence of groundwater management strategies associated with their earliest occupations. The foundations’ construction dates range from between the second half of the 18th to the first half of the 19th centuries. Drainage features within these foundations include multiple styles of...

Cemeteries of Enslaved Communities in Granville County, North Carolina (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Lewis and Elmwood cemeteries are the final resting places of enslaved individuals from two antebellum plantations in Granville County, North Carolina. Archaeological investigations show both cemeteries share many of the characteristics typical of Black cemeteries beginning in the antebellum era and continuing into the postbellum period. In much of North...
Cemeteries, Settlement Development, and Becoming Hohokam in the Northern Tucson Basin (2017)
The transition from hunting and gathering to increased reliance on farming and the subsequent development of distinct regional cultural traditions represent critical processes in the prehistory of southern Arizona. Previous research at the site of Valencia Vieja in the southern Tucson Basin suggests the development of a distinct Hohokam cultural identity began during the Tortolita phase (Red Ware horizon) when significant population aggregation could be maintained and supported with dependable...
The Cemetery and Architectural Features of the Stadium Locus of Tempe Plaza (AZ U:9:72 ASU) (1991)
In January of 1988, during construction activities in the parking lot of the Arizona State University football stadium, a number of prehistoric features (cultural surfaces and cremations) were encountered. Construction activities were temporarily halted, and salvage excavation was undertaken by the Office of Cultural Resource Management of Arizona State University under the direction of Glen Rice and Paul Minnis (Laurene Montero and Philip Weiss, crew chiefs). Excavation was carried out during...
Cemetery Vandalism: The Selective Manipulation Of Information (2017)
Few universal protocols are in place for cemetery preservation and its associated records. Typically, vandalism is associated with physical objects. Often overlooked are the written records. Despite the potential wealth of information, there is currently no guarantee that the record keeping of a cemetery or individual gravemarkers exists or is accurate. The selective disclosure of information or manipulation of records-or documentary vandalism- can lead to vandalized historical records and...
Cemochechobee
The Walter F. George Lock and Dam is a United States Army Corps of Engineers project located south of Columbus, Georgia on the eastern bank of the Chattahoochee River. Prior to the construction of the dam, there were already obvious indications that the Cemochechobee site (9CY62, formerly 9CLA62) was rapidly being eroded due to the ebb and flow of the Chattahoochee River. Prior to the archaeological salvage of Cemochechobee, the dam had also significantly damaged that portion of the site facing...
