Green Stone Pendants of the Florida Middle Archaic: Trade and Lithic Ornament Construction as Evidence for Early Social Difference (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Little Salt Spring mortuary pond is located in south central Sarasota County, Florida. It has been the subject of numerous significant discoveries that have challenged our understanding of the earliest occupations of the Americas. Two green stone pendants recovered from the basin, and dated to the Middle Archaic period (700-500 BP) also test current models ...

Greeting the Dawn: Investigations of Cahokia's East Plaza (2017)
This paper provides an investigation of Cahokia’s East plaza and its associated architectural remains. Defined here as the area bounded by Mounds 31, 36, 38 (Monk’s Mound), and 51, the plaza was initially distinguished by an absence of surface debris, noted during controlled surface collection efforts in the Ramey Tract by Elizabeth D. Benchley and Barbara J. Vander Leest. Based largely on ceramics that were acquired by these investigators, the proposed time of construction has been placed...

Ground truthing Cahokia's Feature X anomaly (2017)
A huge resistivity anomaly discovered several hundred meters NE of Monks Mound was subjected to coring and test excavations in 2012. This testing revealed a series of major prehistoric landscape uses/modifications through time, some quite unexpected. The prehistoric sequence of events at this location, though still in need of further clarification, appear to infer significant shifts in communal priorities through time.
Ground Truthing the Future: Using Contact Era Archaeological Information to Test and Communicate Sea Level Change (2015)
Coastal North Carolina has 3,375 miles of shoreline, much of it fronting low-lying lands increasingly vulnerable to flooding and inundation exacerbated by a long-term process of sea-level rise. This vulnerability has made the area a fruitful laboratory for environmental science studies of sea level change and its environmental and societal effects. But the issue of forecasting sea level rise for public policy and land use management has become controversial due in part to the difficulty of...
Ground-Penetrating Radar and Rapid Site Identification and Characterization: Examples from the Theodore Turley Home Site, Nauvoo, Illinois (2016)
Nauvoo, Illinois, is among the most important sites in the history of the Latter-day Saint movement in the United States. Since the 1960s, Nauvoo has been the site of significant historical and archaeological research and interpretation. With an estimated 1 million visitors annually, the competing needs to preserve the archaeological assets and the continued desire to improve the visitor experience necessitates the most accurate knowledge of these buried resources possible. This presentation...
Ground-Penetrating Radar Prospection for 17th Century Archaeological Sites (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "“Talkin’ ‘Bout a Revolution”: Identifying and Understanding Early Historic-Period House Sites" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Early colonial archaeological sites often exhibit low artifact densities during walkover or other early-phase field investigations. Furthermore, numerous feature classes may be present but not sampled by traditional testing strategies. These are detectable with geophysical surveys,...
Ground-truthing a Historic Database: Chequamegon Bay Archaeological Survey 2016 (2017)
In summer of 2016, the authors investigated two northern Wisconsin sites with long legacies of regional recognition as key seventeenth-century interaction locales among Native American communities and French explorers, missionaries, and traders. These historic locations, known as the Fish Creek Village and Shore’s Landing Trading Post, are significant to descendant communities, including local Ojibwe peoples and Wendat diaspora groups. In addition, the locations are some of the first...
Ground-Truthing GRP Results at A New Hampshire Burial Ground: Narrowing the Divide Between "Anomaly" and Graveshaft. (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Independent Archaeological Consulting followed up the ground-penetrating radar survey with a 100% recovery of a burial ground in Rochester, New Hampshire. The GPR survey enumerated 198 anomalies consistent with the shape and depth of burial shafts, but IAC discovered only 89 graveshafts. Non-grave anomalies ranged from gravel veins to buried stumps and rotten roots. The GPR results...

The Growing Pains and Resulting Benefits in our Transition to Mobile Data Collection (2018)
Technology has made construction monitoring and shovel probing faster, easier, and more consistent. In this paper, I’m going to demonstrate how our office evolved from paper forms, to GPS recording, to tablets and phone apps to simplify most fieldwork. The change is not without its issues, but the result is faster, cheaper, and a whole lot better.
Growing the Scorched Ground Green: Confronting the Past and Looking Towards the Future of California’s Ecology (2018)
In the last several years the topic of Native American land use and land rights has gained renewed interest in academic, political, and public discourse. This paper explores how late Nineteenth and early Twentieth Century Euro-American discourse about the preservation and conservation of nature led to the creation of National Parks at the expense of the indigenous groups who inhabited it. Focusing primarily on California Indians, I examine historical, theoretical, and archaeological data...
Growing up at Coalwood: An Analysis of Children's Material Culture at Coalwood Lumber Camp (2017)
Coalwood was a cordwood lumber camp operated by Cleveland Cliffs Iron Company in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula at the turn of the twentieth century. Workers were encouraged to live there with their families to blunt labor tension and save the costs of boarding houses and dining facilities. Many children lived in the camp; in 1910 there were at least 43 children at Coalwood. Most workers were Finnish immigrants and all but five children were either Finnish immigrants or the children of Finnish...

Guarding the Past: 20th Century Archaeology on Military Lands (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Military Sites" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Camp Crowder is a Missouri Army National Guard Training Site located in Neosho, Missouri. Originally called Fort Crowder, it was built in 1941 as a training site for the US Army Signal Corps. The Army acquired individual properties in 1938 and construction of the camp started in early 1940. Numerous farmsteads were left abandoned throughout the southern portion of...
Guerrero and Beyond: New Collaborations in the Study of the Maritime Cultural Landscape of the Upper Florida Keys (2018)
The historical and archaeological record associated with the Guerrero are but one aspect of the broader maritime activity that has taken place over time and resulted in many shipwrecks in the upper Florida Keys. The University of Miami’s underwater archaeology program was honored to be able to collaborate with both the National Park Service and NOAA’s Office of National Marine Sanctuaries on the Guerrero Project and assist in the survey and search for the Guerrero and the HMS Nimble, as well as...
Guerrilla Foursquare: The appropriation of commercial location-based social networking for archaeological engagement and education (2013)
One aspect of the emerging field of digital archaeology involves the use of digital geo-technologies to create and disseminate location-based archaeological information to both academic and non-academic audiences. Although archaeological projects often lack the resources or expertise necessary to create tailor-made applications, existing services fulfilling a similar purpose can often be repurposed for archaeological projects. A specific case-study using the foursquare service will help shed...
