The relationships displayed through actions and monuments within a graveyard are numerous. This study examines the relationships between the living and the dead, between monuments and monuments and with the wider landscape, and different categories of the living who visit the graveyard. It is possible to investigate the powerful symbolic, textual, physical and intra-site landscape connections and avoidances to reveal the ways in which these places, monuments, the dead, and the living were all...
Conservation of artifacts from a Portuguese wreck: An opportunity for learning (2018)
The wreck of the Esmerelda, a Nau from Vasco da Gama's second voyage to India was discovered during survey in 1998 and excavated over two seasons. The Omani Ministry of Heritage and Culture (MHC) worked with Bournemouth University and Blue water recoveries to create the project, the first of it's kind in Oman. The project is now part of the development of a marine archaeological department within Oman training archaeologists within the MHC in the survey, excavation and protection of marine...
Consumption, Survival, and Personhood in Native North America (2013)
For many decades, archaeologists treated European-manufactured material culture recovered from Native American sites as straightforward indicators of cultural loss. Contemporary Native American historical archaeologies take a different tack, placing patterns of consumption on center stage. Rather than typifying European-manufactured material culture as a reflection (or a juggernaut) of cultural change in Native North America, these new approaches use such assemblages to address the nuances of...
Convict Housing at Parramatta, New South Wales, Australia: a study in the context of British workers’ and American slave accommodation (2017)
Parramatta was even more successful than Sydney in the late 18th century, during the early days of the British colony. After a short period of ad hoc settlement around the farm at Rose Hill, Parramatta was laid out as a planned settlement on a grid pattern. Several early convict cabins have been excavated, and early maps and illustrations indicate the settlement’s layout and appearance, with neatly spaced cabins and the Governor’s House as a central focus. This arrangement can be compared with...
Coronation Wreck Visitor Trail - A New Approach to Outreach and Protected Wrecks in the UK (2013)
The Coronation, a 90-gun second rate, is a protected wreck site off Plymouth. In 1691 she foundered in a violent gale. Like the majority of protected wrecks in the UK, there is a wealth of history and archaeology to be gleaned most often by archaeologists. To regular sports divers, the 61 in the UK have often been deemed off limits, encouraging the notion of "ivory towers academics". Not any longer: Ginge Crook, the licensee of the site, has significantly changed this attitude in just...
Cultivating the Next Generation of Maritime Archaeologists: An Anglo/American Approach (2013)
For the past two years the Nautical Archaeology Society (NAS) in the UK, in partnership with the underwater archaeology program at Northwestern Michigan College (NMC) in the USA, has run a field school in and around Lake Michigan focusing on maritime archaeology. These events have drawn students from across North America and Europe by providing a wide range of specialty training courses not found elsewhere in the region. A substantial amount of original research has been generated from these...
Cultural heritage, history and memory in the context of Madagascar (2013)
Cultural heritage, tangible and intangible, distinguishes a nation. Culture is patent in everyday life, through the various activities that man performs, language, traditions, rituals, beliefs it conveys, all the objects he uses. With modernity and globalization, this heritage, its history and memory, is greatly endangered and degrades rapidly. Among different reasons such as ignorance, indifference, destruction, theft, illicit trafficking of cultural property, natural disasters, failure in the...
The Cultural Landscape at Mount Plantation, Barbados: preliminary findings and future directions (2013)
As part of a wider project in Barbados and the UK, archival research, fieldwalking, and remote sensing have been carried out at Mount Plantation, Barbados. It was selected on its potential for two related research directions. First, to yield data related to the 17C transition to a sugar economy. Second, a study of created and transformed landscapes owned by the Lascelles family in Barbados and Yorkshire (UK). The archaeological investigation of Mount has the potential to yield significant...
Culture, Class & Consumption: Ireland in the Early Modern Atlantic World (2018)
Archaeological investigations throughout the northern Irish port town of Carrickfergus have generated a vast collection of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century material culture, reflecting the role of the town as an entrepôt of early-modern Atlantic goods. Carrickfergus was a heterogeneous settlement, with a mixture of Gaelic Irish, Scots, and English identities amongst a network of merchants, sailors, soldiers, and tradesmen. The material culture is illustrative of the changes in attitudes...
The 'Curse of the Caribbean'? The Effects of Agency on the Efficiency of Sugar Plantations in St Vincent and the Grenadines, 1801-30 (2013)
This study estimates agency's impact on the efficiency of sugar plantations using a panel data set compiled from St Vincent and the Grenadines' crop accounts and slave registry returns. Previous work suggests that agency resulted from absenteeism and exerted a large, negative influence on estate efficiency. This contribution uses stochastic frontier models for panel data to estimate the impact of agency while controlling for crop mix, locational variables, and the size of the estate. Analysis...

Day of Archaeology: Large-scale Collaborative Digital Archaeology (2013)
Day of Archaeology (http://www.dayofarchaeology.com) is an annual event which offers a view of the working day of archaeologists worldwide, and answers the question "what do archaeologists do?" On the first event, on July 29th 2011, over 400 people working, studying or volunteering in archaeology contributed blog posts describing their day. The published text is not scripted by the organisers, and only minimally edited. The resulting website presents a behind-the-scenes view of archaeology that...

Dichotomies and Dualities: exploring the landscape impacts of the Great Depression through an archaeological lens (2018)
This paper will present the early results from the landscape strand of a multidisciplinary research project examining the landscape impacts of the Great Depression (1929-39). The goal of this project is to archaeologically investigate the impacts of and responses to the Great Depression in Northeast England, and to analyse these responses as interventions in the built environment, exploring their landscape impact. Early results indicate tensions between changes in wider culture (the coming of...
