Return To The 'Queen City of the West': Preliminary Investigations at the Port of Indianola, Texas (2017)
Indianola, Texas was the commercial gem of the western Gulf of Mexico during the height of its existence, from the late 1850s until its abandonment in 1887. Responsible for much of the commerce entering western Texas and the western territories via the Gulf of Mexico, Indianola has been largely overlooked archaeologically, despite a high potential for the presence of a significant amount of cultural materials. A team of archaeologists from Texas A&M University, the Institute of Nautical...
Return to the West End Site: Zooarchaeological Results from a Tongva Village on Catalina Island (2017)
Native American subsistence practices on the California Channel Islands are characterized by a variety of rich marine sea foods ranging from shellfish to dolphin. Fluctuation in these maritime diets throughout the Holocene has been posited to represent social and ecological phenomena in the ancient past. This poster presents recent zooarchaeological results, as well as the first radiocarbon assays, of a faunal collection that was excavated from the West End Site on Santa Catalina Island in...
Revealing Hidden Histories and Confronting the Segregated Past: the Political and Social Dynamics of Memory in a Coastal Florida City (2018)
Archaeological excavations and presentations are memory-work, offering tactile and visual materials for consideration of the past. In a coastal Florida city, growing rapidly through in-migration of retirees and service industry employment opportunities, there are few aware or concerned over history. Yet the past haunts the Florida Gulf Coast and the expanding interest in heritage includes competitions among historians and archaeologists, residents and tourists, and development interests and...
Revealing La Playa's Cultural Landscape during the Early Agriculture Period through Paleoethnobotanical Research (2024)
This is an abstract from the "13,000 Years of Adaptation in the Sonoran Desert at La Playa, Sonora" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

We employ a paleoethnobotanical approach, analyzing 150 macrobotanical samples alongside ethnobotanical investigations, ethnographic data, and oral tradition...
Revealing the Drowned Past: New Evidence for Buried Underwater Landforms in Walker Lake, NV (2018)
Over the last 15,000 years, Walker Lake, NV has ranged in size from the southernmost branch of Pleistocene Lake Lahontan to a small alkali wetland. These conditions have provided valuable, but varied resources for local populations throughout human occupation. Sites identified during summer 2015 and 2016 illustrate the preservation of sites in environments where both submersion and drying have occurred. Investigations during summer 2017 revealed the presence of numerous landforms under the...

Revisiting "Mission Impossible" and the other Zacatecan Missions of East Texas and West Louisiana (2017)
This presentation will give updates on the following 18th century Zacatecan Missions: Guadalupe, Dolores, and San Miguel. Mission Guadalupe has not been found--some clues to its location will be discussed. Kathleen Gilmore called Mission Dolores, "Mission Impossible," because she had difficulity locating it in the early 1970s. James Corbin of Stephen F. Austin State University (SFA) did eventually locate the site and conducted the major excavations in the mid-1970s and 1980s. A...

This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Although the United States was late to enter the First World War, the waters of the nation became a battlefield from 1917 onward. Ships operating along North Carolina’s coast recurrently fell victim to the unrestricted U-boat campaign. This paper reexplores the topic of the First World War’s impact on the North Carolina coastline. Originally presented at the 2018 Society of...
Revisiting CA-VEN-1 and Millingstone Culture Re-examined (2018)
The concept of Millingstone has long and intriguing history in California Archaeology. Millingstone conjures up visions of early, simple, crude tools, and a confusing legacy. Millingstone Culture is not easy to define, though it is quite consistent throughout its geographic distribution. Millingstone never fit clearly into earlier theoretical paradigms. Millingstone has been variously described as a technology, as a culture, as an adaptation, as a Horizon, as a tradition, as a regional pattern,...
Revisiting Conejo Shelter: Refining Cultural Chronologies of the Lower Pecos, Texas (2018)
The Lower Pecos region of Texas is a remarkable study area, primarily because perishable artifacts (those made of plant materials, bone, and leather) survive in near pristine conditions in its very dry caves and rockshelters. Vaughn Bryant was among the first researchers in the region to use pollen data to build paleoclimatic and ecological chronologies from this region, his dissertation is still one of the most comprehensive analyses of this region’s ecological past. Following this path, my...
Revisiting Josiah Henson's Role in Maryland History. (2016)
