Radicalizing African Diasporic Foodways When Academia is Not Enough (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Peggy Brunache.

The process of globalization and migration of Africans and African descent communities has made soul food and other African diasporic foodways very popular in Britain. The mass consumption of music and movies, and even fast food that celebrate these culinary traditions is creating a false sense of historical and culture knowledge. Furthermore, archaeology that centers on the legacy of transatlantic slave trade is still a highly marginalized area of study in British academia. Thus, an...

Reactions to tragedy: familial and community memorials to sudden deaths in Britain and Ireland (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Harold Mytum.

This is an abstract from the "Burial, Space, and Memory of Unusual Death" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Investment in memorials to those who died in tragic circumstances fits within the contemporary commemorative traditions of the time, but also often shows distinct difference in reaction and investment. This paper examines commemoration of deaths from 19th- and early 20th- century occupational accidents to understand the ways in which grieving...

Reconstructing Holocene Wetlands of Northern England: New Paleographic Models in the Humber Estuary (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Eric A. Rodriguez.

With the recent application of paleographic modelling on prehistoric wetland environments, it has been possible to observe not only the landscapes of past societies but also how the dynamic nature of these environs influenced the phenomenology and settlement patterns of such peoples. This paper focuses on two areas from Northern England’s Humber Estuary and describes the interactions between the reconstructed palaeolandscapes of Roos Carr and Ferriby and the shifting settlement patterns from the...

Reconstruction of a replica swivel gun (2013)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Martin J Read. Kester Keighley.

In 1973 a composite wood-iron swivel gun known as a 'Serpentine' was recovered from the Cattewater, Plymouth and a Tudor wreck, known as the Cattewater Wreck, subsequently partially excavated. In 1979 a film was made of the construction of a replica swivel gun by Colin Carpenter which showed the fabrication of the wrought iron gun barrel and oak bed, their fitting and subsequent firing. This film has been digitised by the South West Film & Television Archive.

Recording Historic Shipwrecks at the Speed of Light: An Archaeological Analysis of the ULS-200 Underwater Laser Scanner to Sonar, Video, and Photographic Recording Methodologies (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Michael C. Murray.

Since the beginning of underwater archaeology, the effective recording of sites has always been a challenge. This study will compare the ULS-200 underwater laser scanning device to other traditional archaeological recording methods, seek to quantify the average amount of time it takes to conduct a scan underwater and evaluate its accuracy in resolving an image at different turbidities and ranges. Within its ideal range, the expected outcome is that while it will take an equal or longer amount of...

Recording Modern Shipwrecks as Heritage (2013)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Martin C Newman.

English Heritage, with funding from MEDIN (the Marine Environmental Data and Information Network), undertook a project to extend the coverage of the maritime component of the National Record of the Historic Environment (NRHE) from its previous 1945 cut-off date to the present day bringing it into line with its terrestrial equivalent. This utilised a bespoke database and associated GIS layer to hold the results of desk-based research pulling together information from a variety of sources for both...

Recording the Swash Channel Wreck using high resolution photo mosaics (2013)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Thomas Cousins. Danni Seliger.

The site of the Swash Channel Wreck is that of a large armed merchant ship wrecked in the approached to Poole Harbour on the South Coast of England. The site consists of the almost entire port side of the originating vessels including the bow and stern castles. During 2010 – 2012 the site was subject to an English Heritage funded rescue excavation. The size and nature of the site is such that a recording in a traditional manner would have been prohibitively expensive and an alternative approach...

Remembering the Great Terror: Tangible and Intangible Heritage at Sites of Stalinist Repression (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Margaret A Comer.

This paper will compare and contrast tangible and intangible forms of memorialization and commemoration at two ‘dark heritage’ sites from the period of the Soviet Union’s Great Terror in the late 1930s. Both the Butovo firing range, near Moscow, and the 12th Kilometer, near Yekaterinburg, are mass graves of Soviet citizens shot during Stalinist repression. Both are now sites of individual and public remembrance, with mass ceremonies occurring several times each year. However, the narratives of...

The Rise and Fall of High Morlaggan (2013)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Susan Furness. Fiona Jackson.

The ‘Highland Clearances’ is an evocative term used to refer to the dramatic depopulation of the Scottish Highlands in the late 1700s and early 1800s, in the aftermath of the failed Jacobite rebellion. Although there is good evidence for forced and likely brutal evictions in many areas, the movement of people out of small rural settlements in other parts of the Highlands was less dramatic and more organic. The High Morlaggan Project is a community-led heritage and archaeology project that has...

Rum and Archaeology: A Preliminary Report of the Excavation of the Still House on the Betty’s Hope Plantation, Antigua. (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Charlotte Goudge.

A great deal of research has been undertaken on the slave trade, sugar and the African diaspora, however, the impact of rum has garnered little attention from scholars. Rum was an important social and economic catalyst during the 17th-20th centuries, impacting all strata of society from the lowest slaves to the highest echelons of British society. During the 18th and 19th centuries rum developed from a waste product into highly desirable merchandise that was used as a social lubrication to ease...
