12,301-12,325 (13,359 Records)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The northwestern Gulf of Mexico outer continental shelf (OCS) includes approximately 38,660,700 acres of submerged land under federal permitting authority, which are in turn subject to Section 106-compliant archaeological survey. Both historic and prehistoric resources must be identified. While historic shipwrecks can occur in any water depth, sea-level curve...
Submerged Skylines: Applications of GIS-Based Visibility Analyses in Reconstructing Submerged Cities (2018)
Reconstructions of submerged urban landscapes hold an important role in understanding the potential past form and function of a site. As these reconstructions grow more prominent, the tools used to manipulate and evaluate these reconstructions become increasingly more important. This project endeavors to expand that tool set by using GIS-based visibility analyses as a means of evaluating reconstructions and using them to contextualize the relationship between port cities and seafarers. Working...

Subordinate Economies Within The Barbadian Sugar Plantation Economy (2015)
Within the Barbadian sugar plantations of the 18th and 19th century, there existed multiple forms of economy. The typical economy, as described by historical texts, consists of sugar plantations exchanging sugar and molasses for goods from England and its North American colonies as well as for slaves from Africa. However, within the sugar plantation complex, a dense and layered sub-economy was impacting and being impacted by the day-to-day operations of the plantations themselves. At the core of...
Subsea Mudflows and Moving Shipwrecks: Submerged Cultural Resource Management on the Mississippi River Delta Front (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. On May 12, 1942, the 500-foot-long, steel-hulled tanker Virginia was sunk by the German U-boat U-507 off the Mississippi River’s Southwest Pass. The shipwreck was discovered in nearly 300 feet of water during a 2001 oil and gas survey and was investigated by a remotely operated vehicle in 2004. A 2006 geophysical survey found that the shipwreck had moved more than 1,200 feet...

Success Stories: the Digital Archaeological Record (tDAR) for Research, Education, Public Outreach, and Innovation (2016)
More public agencies, researchers and other managers of archaeological data are preserving their information in digital repositories and there is an exciting future for research, education, public outreach, and innovation. There is a wealth of primary data and interpretive reports already available in tDAR for reuse in research and education. Researchers can quickly track down digital copies of reports and grey literature for background surveys and comparative analyses. Students can locate...
‘Success to America.’ The Role of British Creamware in the Production of American National Identity. (2016)
Excavations at New York City’s South Street Seaport uncovered an early nineteenth century deposit within the foundation of a small building on the property of a wealthy merchant. Among the artifacts in the deposit was a creamware plate that paid homage to the "sacred" memory of George Washington. Along with this solemn memorial, the imagery on the plate included a neoclassic goddess waving an olive branch towards a mercantile ship on the horizon. Despite the irony, British potters produced many...

The topic of this paper explores material life and economic strategies among rural outliers, defined as rural households that were very successful economically. The examples in the paper are drawn from sites in the South and Midwest. The sites illustrate that for rural households, archaeologists...
"A Sudden Flaw of Wind" -The Politics, Prize, and Pottery of the British Sloop of War DeBraak (2018)
On May 25th, 1798 the British brig-sloop DeBraak was struck by a sudden squall and sank while attempting to put into harbor at Lewes, Delaware. The unpredictable winds of the Delaware Cape may have spelled her demise, but it was the shifting political winds of war between Revolutionary France and England, coupled with the vulnerability of American shipping and a new nation’s demand for manufactured goods, that brought this warship to Delaware’s shores. This paper examines the ceramics...

Sulfur Isotope Ratios of Terrestrial and Coastal Fauna on the Southeastern Coast: A Step toward Resolving Equifinality in Human Paleodiet Reconstructions (2018)
Sulfur isotope ratios in human bone collagen are used in paleodiet reconstructions to distinguish between marine- and terrestrial-based diets, because sulfur isotope ratios in marine organisms are typically higher. However, natural phenomena such as sea spray, rain, and flooding can deposit sea water sulfates on land that are bioavailable to plants and terrestrial animals. Comparing sulfur from archaeological deer and fish-eating raccoons from sites both in close proximity to the coast and...
Sultan: Cleveland’s Grindstone Wreck (2013)
Due to a novice captain’s error in judgment the brigantine Sultan foundered in Lake Erie off Cleveland, Ohio during a storm in 1864. As the brigantine came to rest in shallow water only a few miles from shore with masts exposed, six of the eight crew climbed the rigging in an effort to survive. One by one, however, the crew succumbed to the fury of the storm leaving a sole survivor to be rescued and to share the harrowing tale. The wreck of the Sultan was discovered in 2011 by the...
Sultana: Greatest Maritime Tragedy in United States History: A Nation's Best Kept Secret (2015)
The disaster of Sultana has been recognized as the greatest maritime tragedy in United States history. The wreck has little notoriety, despite its significance, due to historical overshadowing and a terminal resting place in the landlocked state of Arkansas. Efforts for salvage were immediate, but archaeological undertakings have been cautious and sporadic. An unwelcoming landscape and lack of interest and funding have consorted so that as we approach the sesquicentennial anniversary of...
