This is an abstract from the "Byways to the Past: An American Highway Archaeology Symposium" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

Yarrow Mamout was a Muslim Fulani enslaved in 1752, and manumitted in 1796. He purchased property in Georgetown in 1800, and there is currently an archaeological investigation on his former property. Using original Arabic documents, this research explores the spirituality, literacy and religious tolerance of enslaved African Muslims...


"A Splendid Location": Land Use On An Urban Block in Mobile, Alabama (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Bradford Botwick.

An archaeological and historical study of upper- and middle-class households in Mobile, Alabama provided an opportunity to examine how certain forms of material culture and the built environment served to demarcate social, racial, and economic differences in this city and how these compared with other cities.  The block under consideration and its neighborhood were generally homogenous, with residents being the families of professionals. Notably, most of the properties were rentals; land use,...

Split Lips and Broken Bottoms: Analysis of Glass Fragments from an Urban Context (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Caitlyn I Gorman. Genevieve C Cameron.

This paper examines the results of the chronological analysis of glass tops and bases from several sites along Main Street in St. Charles, Missouri.  Bottle fragments from both intact and disturbed contexts are used to help provide chronological context to these urban site locations.  Further comparison with diagnostic materials from the undisturbed levels, along with possible functional categories of the bottle fragments, will also be discussed relative to possible site functions.


Splitting and Lumping: Decision-making and Meaning in Intentional Artifact Fragmentation and Deposition (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Kathleen Hull.

Drawing on archaeological data from the greater Los Angeles Basin, this paper examines sequences of intentional ground-stone artifact fragmentation and singular or multiple-recombined fragment placement within various feature contexts. Recent studies of putative communal mourning features have indicated an initial suite of intentional artifact fragmentation and treatment practices including pigmentation or burning, but ongoing study of these and other types of features has revealed additional...


"Spoiled Submerged Sites" or "Just Another  C-Filter"?  Accounting for Recent Human Impact in the Archaeological Analysis of BISC-2 (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Dave Morgan. Stephen Lubkemann. Charles Lawson. David Conlin. Andres Diaz.

BISC-2 represents a type of site that is all too familiar to maritime archaeologists: one subject to extensive recent post-deposition disturbance as a result of different forms of destructive human intervention. Too often such sites are dismissed as too "spoiled" to provide reliable insight into the past. We suggest that while regrettable, such recent interventions should not lead us to dismiss such sites as archaeologically irrelevant. Instead they should be addressed through archaeological...


The Sporting Life: Archaeological Evidence of Pensacola’s Red Light District Customers (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jackie L. Rodgers.

Archaeological studies have been conducted upon red light districts across the United States. While these studies have yielded great insight into the lives of prostitutes, relatively little has been recovered from their customers. Three collections from excavations conducted in 1975 and 2000 upon Pensacola, Florida’s red light district have also been studied, with a surprising number of artifacts associated with customers identified. This paper will provide an in-depth analysis of red light...


The Spread of Cholera Throughout North America in 1832 via Inland Waterways (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Nicole Deere.

This is an abstract from the "Shipwrecks and the Public: Getting People Engaged with their Maritime History" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Steamboats and other watercraft were largely responsible for the rapid spread of cholera throughout North America in 1832 via inland waterways. The recent archaeological excavation of Phoenix II in Lake Champlain led to the rediscovery of the steamer’s role in this tragic historic event, and prompted further...


Spread of Maize into Temperate North America (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Kelly Swarts. Miguel Vallebueno. Lisa Huckell. Hernan Burbano. Bruce Huckell.

This is an abstract from the "Subsistence Crops and Animals as a Proxy for Human Cultural Practice" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Maize entered the southwestern United States nearly 2,000 years before maize agricultural practice is visible in the archaeological record on the Colorado Plateau. Previous work found that the early cultivated maize on the Plateau, 2,000-year-old samples from Turkey Pen Shelter, were already at least partially adapted,...
