Race and Alienation in Baltimore's Hampden (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Robert Chidester. David Gadsby.

The recent uprising in West Baltimore took place less than two miles from the neighborhood of Hampden, but, with a few notable exceptions, it made little impact there.  Writers and historians have long understood the Baltimore neighborhood of Hampden to be culturally, geographically, and racially  isolated from the city in which it is embedded.  Archaeological investigations performed there have helped to illustrate how class and power relationships changed over time, ultimately reinforcing that...


Race and the water: the materiality of swimming, sewers and segregation in African America (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Paul R. Mullins. Timo Ylimaunu.

Few dimensions of the color line were monitored as closely as access to American rivers, beaches, and swimming pools, which became strictly segregated in the early 20th century. This paper examines the heritage of color line inequalities in Indianapolis, Indiana's waters, where beaches were segregated, African Americans were restricted to a single city pool, and waterways in African-American neighborhoods still accommodate sewer overflows. Despite that history, a new wave of urbanites is now...


Race, Gender, and Consumerism in Nineteenth Century Virginia (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Lori Lee.

This paper uses historical and archaeological evidence to consider which consumer goods were available to enslaved men and women in nineteenth century Virginia. At the scale of local markets and stores, supply and variable adherence to laws constrained which goods were available to slaves who were able to purchase and trade for them. By comparing purchases of enslaved African Americans with purchases of whites at the same store, I assess which goods were accessible to each group. I use...


Race, Health, and Hygiene in a World War II Japanese American Internment Camp (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Stacey L. Camp.

During World War II, approximately 120,000 individuals of Japanese heritage were imprisoned in internment camps in the United States, with 2/3 of the prisoners holding American citizenship. This paper looks at health and hygiene related artifacts found at one such internment camp, the Kooskia Internment Camp, which was located in north Idaho and in operation from May 1943 to May 1945. Hygiene and health products mediated the racial boundaries between not only Anglo American officials and their...


Racism and the Society for Historical Archaeology: Advancing an Anti-Racist Institutional Identity (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Michael Nassaney. Cheryl LaRoche.

Archaeologists are well aware of the ways in which our personal and political lives influence our practice. Since the 1980s the profession has paid increasing attention to the racialization of the past and how white privilege, white supremacy, and racial hierarchy structured the material world and our analysis of it. We have paid less attention to how these conditions continue to structure our institutions. Membership surveys in archaeology demonstrate that our professional societies are...


The Rad Clay Pad that the Spaniards Had: A Geoarchaeological Examination of Sixteenth Century Spanish Forts (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Hannah Hoover.

Academia regularly relies on documentary evidence to interpret the relatively rapid culture changes that occur after contact, often ignoring the more long-term patterns and processes of the indigenous response. Geoarchaeological survey allows for an in-depth study of the changes in cultural deposits diachronically, recreating a narrative that is reflective of a wide range of human experience. This paper examines the ideological shift in the Spanish strategy for colonizing La Florida by utilizing...

Radical Cosmological Ritual Intervention at Poverty Point (2024)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Tristram Kidder. Seth Grooms. Maggie Spivey.

This is an abstract from the "*SE Not Your Father’s Poverty Point: Rewriting Old Narratives through New Research" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Poverty Point site in northeast Louisiana is unique—in size, monumental architecture, artifact content, and history—and the site defies standard functional explanations for hunter-gatherer settlements. In contrast to existing concepts arguing that the site’s monumental constructions were built over...


Radical Heritage Archaeology: A Case Study from the W.E.B. Du Bois Homesite in Great Barrington, Massachusetts (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Whitney Battle-Baptiste. Robert Paynter. Christopher Douyard. Elena Sesma. Anthony Martin. Honora Sullivan-Chin.

Archaeology at the W.E.B. Du Bois Homesite was based on the goals of combining archaeological problem solving with the teaching of field methods and techniques.  It began in the 1980s when the dominant ethic in archaeology was conservation and Cultural Resource Management. Today, the dominant practice of archaeology has been transformed by projects like the New York African Burial Ground  to revolutionized how we think about archaeology’s relationship with the community.  This paper, based on...

Railroad Camps in the High Sierras (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only John P. Molenda.

Railroad construction camps occupied by Chinese laborers have been investigated archaeologically since the 1960s. The upcoming 150 year anniversary of the construction of the first transcontinental railroad has spurred renewed interest in these sites. This paper will discuss what we have learned from previous studies of railroad work camps and how they inform current interpretations, with special emphasis on drawing connections between the archaeological record and theoretical frameworks for...


"Railroaded" - The Wreck of the Schooner Plymouth! (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only David M. VanZandt. James Edward Paskert. Kevin Scott Magee.

An unidentified shipwreck was located in 1996 by CLUE (Cleveland Underwater Explorers) member Rob Ruetschle in Lake Erie, approximately 20 miles off Cleveland, Ohio.  CLUE re-visited and surveyed the shipwreck in 2013. After extensive archival research, CLUE identified the wreck as the two-masted schooner Plymouth, which sank on the night of 23 June 1852, after a collision with the sidewheel steamer Northern Indiana.   Additional historical research relative to the parties involved revealed a...


Railroads and the Lumbering Frontier in Michigan (2020)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Sarah Surface-Evans.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Roads, Rivers, Rails and Trails (and more): The Archaeology of Linear Historic Properties" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The expansion of the lumber frontier in the Great Lakes region was constrained by the ability to move lumber from wilderness to centers of production. Within a brief timespan, from A.D. 1870 to 1900 thousands of miles of rail were laid to access the timber of the northern interior of...


Railroads, America, and the Formative Period of Historical Archaeology: A Documentary and Photographic Investigation into the Historic Preservation Movement (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Lauren Alston Bridges.

The twentieth century, the formative period of historical archaeology, is marked by an ideological shift from the fervent consumerism and industrialism of the nineteenth century, towards a growing institutional concern for the nation’s finite natural and historical resources. A focused case study of twentieth century railroad stations highlights various themes pertinent to the discussion of the role of historical archaeology in the Historic Preservation Movement, which focuses on preservation...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Vincent Gallacci.

This is an abstract from the "Rebuilding The Alexandria Waterfront: Urban Landscape Development and Modifications" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Recent excavations along the waterfront in Alexandria revealed a myriad of large, intact features including wharves, warehouses, domestic structures, and the Pioneer Mill. Photogrammetry was used to create 3D models of several of the individual features. This paper will briefly discuss some of the...


Raising Port Royal: A Geospatial Reconstruction of the Colonial City in 1692 (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Chelsea M. Cohen.

When an earthquake struck in 1692, the shoreline of Port Royal, Jamaica, was interminably altered as the town fell to the sea. Using integrated GIS and 3D modeling, this project aims to reconstruct the pre-earthquake shoreline of Port Royal in elevated space. Historical maps and archival data are georeferenced to align the old shore with remaining features, allowing for an outline of the former area. From there, bathymetric data as well as archaeological excavations are used to extrude...
