In 1534, the visiting John Leland saw at Sheriff Hutton castle, North Yorkshire, "no house in the North so like a princely lodgings".  Yet scarcely ninety years later, the surveyor John Norden viewed only a "naked carcase", and today, four shattered towers remain from the original structure.  Instead of considering the creation of an elite landscape and the heyday of a great late medieval residence, this paper will outline the transformation of one and the destruction of the other...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Women’s Work: Archaeology and Mothering" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Throughout the nineteenth century the city of New York expanded significantly, its growth fed by large numbers of migrant groups. Many of these groups came from the British Isles and northern Europe, where established systems of charitable institutional care were in place. Consequently, migrants were familiar with the types of...

The Nautical Archaeology Society's first course was  held in 1986. Since then over 10,000 people have attended an NAS Training event in over 20 countries. This attendance involved actually meeting an NAS Tutor and discovering what nautical archaeology was all about. In 2013 UK NAS trainees will be able to learn what nautical archaeology is all about from the comfort of their couch. The NAS E'Learning Programme will offer interactive online lessons to replace the face to face lesssons of the...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Citizen Science in Maritime Archaeology: The Power of Public Engagement for Heritage Monitoring and Protection" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The ocean covers more than 70% of the surface of our planet and the open sea, estuaries and rivers have been used for millennia as the most efficient way to transport large cargoes across the globe. And accidents do happen!! So it is no surprize that "the sea is the...

The new Mary Rose museum opens in early 2013.  It is the latest phase in the story of this remarkable ship built 500 years ago, sunk in 1545 and raised in 1982.  In 1974, it was the second ship to be designated under the Protection of Wrecks Act.   But how and why has this ship been able to progress from a small scale project starting like many others in the UK to being one with international impact?  This paper will start by looking at the vision behind the project and its evolution - from the...

The 1920s and 1930s saw the renewal of large parts of Britain’s housing stock. In Birmingham, England, new housing projects were constructed in the suburbs, each home having three bedrooms, bathroom, indoor lavatory, garden, and local amenities – a contrast to the back-to-back housing in the centre of Birmingham that new suburban homes sought to replace. The back-to-backs were seen as crowded and insanitary, children sharing bedrooms with adults and non-family lodgers. The form and fabric of new...

In 2012 in the United Kingdom there were 61 wreck sites protected under the Protection of Wrecks Act (1973). These wrecks are identified as being the most important historical and archaeological wrecks in UK territorial waters.  Since 2005 the NAS has worked to not only facilitate access to these heritage assets but to also contribute to the research aims of the volunteer custodians. This paper will highlight the opportunity that a diver trail on the Norman’s Bay wreck launched in 2011, offers...

This paper considers the sources of demand for European-manufactured goods among the Native American societies of the Northeast Woodlands in the early seventeenth century.  I propose that among the Wendat-Tionnantate and Attiwandaron societies of southern Ontario, objects perceived to be potent – including many obtained from European sources – fed into local ‘economies of affect’.  These systems involved characteristic cycles of ritual exchange focussed on the accumulation and enchainment of...

Within Public Archaeology, there has been a critical cultural shift towards awareness of the benefit of public engagement online. A tendency towards 'cyber-Utopianism' would suggest that Internet technologies can foster new dialogue, present community-constructed knowledge, underpin new organisational relationships, whilst redistributing access to cultural resources. Although the democratisation of online communication and production have stretched the boundaries of belonging, critical...

The Nautical Archaeology Society Training Programme is often perceived as being a " fun programme for amateaur divers" but that is "not really for professionals".  However over the past 26 years the NAS Training Programme has been utilised by both national and state heritage agencies and also by universities all over the world. The reason being is that the flexible programme allows the teacher to devise a structured course with content that helps build the skills required by...

This is an abstract from the "Frontier and Settlement Archaeology" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Relationships between people and landscapes can be used to inform upon social and behavioural variations. Hurricanes and shifting climactic dynamics around Ocracoke Island in the Outer Banks NC directly affected this relationship. Historically, Ocracoke provided vital trade and communication links from the West Indies to North America. Pilot Town,...

I firmly believe in open-ended research because profound insights unrelated to stated objectives can arise from research projects. This paper explores the nature of indigeneity in our modern world of trans-nationals and international commuters, of being everywhere and nowhere, using the unlikely forum of a modest archaeological research project focusing on the Greenham Common Peace Women’s protests of 1982-1995. Indigeneity is conventionally understood as a relationship to place, or as a...

The station records from the Kinchega Pastoral Estate (western NSW Australia) include book-keeping records for the Estate’s three main homesteads– Kinchega, Kars and Mulculca between 1892 and 1954.  The late 19th-early 20th century is an important period in Australia’s history, with increasing globalisation, commodification, and communications systems. These records cover the consumption practices associated with Australia’s important pastoral industry, at one of the largest holdings in NSW. The...

Current debate in public archaeology has repositioned archaeologists as members of the community, rather than specialists distinct from the public. Although this moves away from privileging archaeological perspectives of the past towards a more dialogical engagement with communities, in practice the motivations and agendas of specialists and public with respect to the archaeological resource are not easily reconciled. An archaeological ethnography example from Crete explores the tensions between...

This is a poster submission presented at the 2024 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In 1997, human bones were discovered ashore Rapparee Cove in North Devon, United Kingdom. Since then, much news coverage and public speculation has suggested that the remains belong either to French soldiers or enslaved African-descended rebels from St. Lucia who had drowned when the London had shipwrecked off the coast two centuries earlier in 1796. A decades-long international custody...

The ruins of the recent past pose a management riddle for those who must decide their fate. Options for action oscillate between removal and eradication on the one hand, and restoration and elevation to the status of heritage object on the other. While some sites have actively embraced a philosophy of continued ruination, this approach must contend with continual calls for stabilisation (or demolition). Ultimately, those who manage such spaces must be seen to be ‘doing something’, beyond...

In a time when social and racial justice and collective action is evermore the crux of African American communities, the importance of public engagement and community archaeology and mapping historical activism is evident. This paper will present initial findings of the archaeological and archival research project at the Parker Academy, founded in 1839 in southern Ohio. This Academy was the first school in Ohio, and the country, to house multiracial coeducational classrooms. Importantly, it was...

Mark Crinson writes of the city as a physical landscape and a collection of objects and practices that both enable recollections of the past, and embody the past through traces of the city’s sequential building and rebuilding. The homes of the people of Vauxhall, an inner-city district of Liverpool, were demolished and rebuilt in successive waves of ‘slum’ clearance during the 20th century, the latest manifestation of the area’s working-class housing being shaped by residents themselves – a...
