Jumping the Legal Color Line: Negotiating Racial Geographies in the 19th Century (2015)
The legal status and civil rights of Free Persons of Color in the U.S. were constantly being negotiated throughout the 19th century from state to state, and varied from relative amounts of freedom and legal rights to strict "Black Laws" barely removed from slavery. This paper explores the ways in which Free Black Pioneers utilized the changing state and local boundaries (and with them, quickly changing legal status for Free People of Color) to their advantage, capitalizing on their racial...

Junk Drawers and Spirit Caches: Alternative Interpretations of Archaeological Assemblages at Sites Occupied by Enslaved Africans (2016)
In this paper I examine how archaeologists make sense of the archaeological record at sites occupied by enslaved Africans in the Chesapeake region during the antebellum period. In particular, I offer an alternative explanation for some assemblages of artifacts that are routinely interpreted as African Diasporic spirit caches. In addition to sharing similar cultural belief systems, enslaved Africans experienced comparable levels of privation. Poverty may have motivated some enslaved Africans...
Just Another Brick in the Wall: Brick Looting in the Antebellum Lowcountry of South Carolina (2016)
From the colonial period through the twentieth century, brick looting was a common occurrence in the South Carolina Lowcountry. Most accounts are related to the Revolutionary and Civil wars when brick was stolen from ruins or abandoned structures to repair damaged buildings or construct new ones. This study focuses on the built landscape of Peachtree Plantation in St. James Santee Parish, South Carolina. This 450-acre parcel contains the remnants of the second largest plantation house in the...
"Just At Dawn We Found Ourselves In The Environs Of Princeton:" A Reinterpretation Of The Battle Of Princeton, 3 January 1777 (2016)
After a series of military disasters that threatened to end the Revolution, the Battle of Princeton was the first American victory in the field against British regulars and followed on the success of the first Battle of Trenton ten days earlier. A comprehensive mapping study funded by the American Battlefield Protection Program offers a reinterpretation of the battle through the use of documentary, graphic, and archeological resources, and the correlation of the historical record with the...

JW Fewkes, James "Al" Lancaster, and Beyond: A Century of Preservation Archeology at Mesa Verde National Park. (2018)
Site preservation has been an essential function at Mesa Verde National Park for a full century as well as a major prerogative of the National Park Service since its very inception. Early archaeological investigations at the park and attendant preservation efforts were instrumental in the definition of Ancestral Pueblo culture history by players who themselves were instrumental in the development of the science of North American archaeology. This presentation chronicles some of the remarkable...
The Kaiparowits Puebloans: Kayentan or Virgin Migrants? (2018)
More than 50 years ago archaeologists identified a high-density of Puebloan habitations on the Kaiparowits Plateau in southern Utah. Analysis of pottery from these habitations by James Gunnerson and Florence Lister resulted in conflicting interpretations of cultural affiliation. Gunnerson argued for a Virgin affiliation whereas Lister argued for a Kayentan affiliation. Lister’s interpretation triumphed and the Puebloan occupation of the Kaiparowits was attributed to migration from the south...

Karen Adams and Early Agricultural Period Research: A Synthetic Approach Using Niche Construction Theory (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Enduring Relationships: People, Plants, and the Contributions of Karen R. Adams" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In the last 30 years Early Agricultural period research has documented a series of substantial early farming settlements in four river valleys: the Santa Cruz in the Tucson Basin, the Río Boquilla at La Playa in northern Sonora, the Río Casas Grandes in northern Chihuahua, and the Upper Gila River in...
Karen Adams: Scholar, Collaborator, and Friend (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Enduring Relationships: People, Plants, and the Contributions of Karen R. Adams" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Karen Adams richly deserves recognition as a premier, foundational Southwest archaeobotanist, a status personally and professionally celebrated by the organizers of today’s session in her honor and by her past term as President of the Society of Ethnobiology. Few other researchers in the field approach her...
Kathleen Gilmore and the Archaeological Investigations of La Salle’s Fort St. Louis in Texas (2017)
Archaeological investigations at La Salle’s 1685-89 Fort St. Louis in Texas (41VT4) were conducted in 1950 by the Texas Memorial Museum and again in 1999-2002 by the Texas Historical Commission. Kathleen Gilmore analyzed the artifacts from the 1950 excavations and identified the site as the location of the French colony of Fort St. Louis. The 1999-2002 further confirmed this assessment and recovered much information about a Spanish presidio built over the French settlement. Kathleen was a...
Katsina Runners in Basketmaker II through Pueblo III petroglyphs in the Northern San Juan Basin. (2021)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Runners have always played an important role in Pueblo life, as with all tribes in the Southwest. They carried messages and trade items across great distances between prehistoric villages. Ritual racing around villages and out to sacred shrines have served to inspire the clouds to bring rain and keep the Sun and Moon on track during their annual journeys. A...
Katsinam, Clouds, and Kivas: Evidence for the Origins of the Katsina Culture (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Katsinam are an iconic symbol of the Native American southwest, but the origin of the religion, sometimes referred to as the Katsina cult, has been elusive. In this paper I review earlier research on the origin of the Katsina culture and the conclusions these researchers came to, taking into account the theoretical constructs and assumptions these earlier...
