Characterizing Paleoindian Landscapes of Southeastern Utah (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Transcending Modern Boundaries: Recent Investigations of Cultural Landscapes in Southeastern Utah" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The earliest occupations of the greater Bears Ears area are represented by fluted, unfluted lanceolate, and stemmed projectile point technologies indicative of the Paleoindian period. Historically, this period has not been the focus of discussions pertaining to regional archaeological...
Characterizing the Deceased Mariners of the Swedish Warship Vasa: An Analysis of Personal Possessions Found in Association with Human Remains (2018)
Countless studies have been conducted in reference to shipboard life. Historians have often considered the daily diaries, journals, and correspondences of the individuals who partook of this lifestyle. Meanwhile, archaeologists have considered personal chests of seamen, officers’ cabins, and personal materials scattered across wrecks, but few have considered personal property found with skeletal remains. The reason for this lack of investigation is the preservation of materials. Vasa is an...
CHARCOAL IDENTIFICATION AND AMS RADIOCARBON DATING OF SAMPLES FROM THE RINCON SPRINGS SITE, CALIFORNIA (2009)
Twelve charcoal samples were submitted for identification and AMS radiocarbon dating from the Rincon Springs Site in California. These samples were recovered from three separate trenches excavated in fan deposits. A total of eight radiocarbon dates were obtained.
Charcoal, Pollen, and Statistics: Spatio-Temporal Occupation of the Black Rock Desert Basin (2021)
This is an abstract from the "People, Climate, and Proxies in Holocene Western North America" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Black Rock Desert Basin (HUC-6 160402) comprises the largest basin in northwest Nevada. Covering approximately three billion hectares, this basin contains the Quinn River drainage and the Black Rock and Smoke Creek playas. A radiocarbon database for the basin was assembled from the peer-reviewed and cultural resource...

Charles K. Landis: the Archaeology of the Macro- and Micro-Aspects of Creativity (2013)
Charles K. Landis (1833-1900), a Victorian Period lawyer and realator, was an important factor in transforming the landscape of southern New Jersey. Over a quarter of a century he founded (with Richard J. Byrnes) Hammonton (1857) and Vineland (1861), two successful new agricutltural communities, and in 1881, Sea Isle City, a Jersey shore resort. He attempted during this period to also set up his own county and county seat, Landisville, but that political goal failed. The impact of Landis and his...
Charleston, South Carolina and Beyond (2018)
Charleston, South Carolina, is probably best known as an urban center servicing a plantation economy supported by slave labor, but this is only part of the city's function. The city was an important social, political, and economic port on the Atlantic seaboard, a vital link between interior centers of production and the transatlantic world. Charles Town began as a thriving hub for the Native American trade, as well as for cattle and forest products. This trade connected rural homesteads and...
Charlottes, Commies, and China Dishes: The Abundance of Children’s Toys from The Hermitage (2018)
The lives of children enslaved on American plantations are poorly documented and often overlooked in the archaeological record. Excavations at the Hermitage have produced a large number of toys that can provide valuable insights into the lives of this understudied population. Over half of the toys in the DAACS database are from the Hermitage. This paper looks to compare the toys from the Hermitage to those from the other North American sites in DAACS to better understand why the Hermitage has...
Charting Intention: Place and Power on Virginia’s Earliest Maps (2017)
Nothing makes the intentions and aspirations of a colonizing enterprise more apparent than the maps and charts of the spaces they seek to control, particularly their choices of which geographic and cultural features to represent or assign the power of a name. Because of the obvious value as primary documents, a small handful of maps relating to Virginia in the early contact period are used by historians, anthropologists and archaeologists to place and interpret sites and features on the...
Chasing Rabbits: Investigating Domesticated Leporids at Jefferson’s Monticello (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Recent excavations at Monticello’s South Pavilion provided researchers the opportunity to analyze faunal remains from fill which originated in the plantation’s first kitchen yard and environs. Preliminary analysis suggests food procurement on the site fits patterns seen in newly-established plantations across the Chesapeake region, in which the percentage of wild game brought to the...
Chasing Trail: Documentation and Management of Precontact Trails within Lake Mead NRA (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Archeology at Lake Mead National Recreation Area (NRA) has primarily focused on areas where the Section 106 process has required survey such as areas subject to inundation from Lakes Mead and Mohave, as well as developed areas. This has led to only 5% of the 1.5 million acres that make up Lake Mead NRA being surveyed. Included in the previously surveyed...
Chawan and Yunomi: Japanese Tablewares Recovered from Three Issei Communities in the American West (2017)
Japanese-manufactured ceramics from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries have been recovered from a variety of archaeological sites throughout Western North America, but large collections and in-depth analyses of pre-World War II assemblages are still relatively rare. As a result, standardized formal, temporal, and functional typologies are only just emerging and site comparisons are often difficult. This paper presents a synthesis of ceramic data from three west coast sites...
The Chaíne Opératoire of Late Archaic through Mesilla Phase Assemblages from the Placitas Arroyo Site Complex, Lower Rio Grande Valley, New Mexico (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The chaíne opératoire approach to lithic analysis has rarely been imported from the Old World and applied to analysis of New World lithic assemblages. However, that approach is appropriate for virtually any lithic technology, providing a structured methodology that shifts attention from typological studies to explicitly behavioral analyses, complimenting...
Chebacco: The Boat that Built Essex (2018)
Built to save a struggling New England fishing industry, the Chebacco boats were an amalgamation of ship features that rose to prominence after the time American Revolution. This is the boat that gave Chebacco Parish of Masschusettes, the power and influence to become the famous shipbuilding town of Essex. This talk will briefly cover the history and development, the features that make Chebacco boats unique, and finally, we will look at the Coffin's Beach site which shows the example of a...
Checking In: An Examination of the Pend d'Oreille Hotel (2018)
In 1910, people traveling eastward or westward on the Northern Pacific Railroad, would have had an opportunity to get off the train at Sandpoint, Idaho. These travelers may have been lured in by the promise of jobs in lumber, the picturesque lake with mountains surrounding the town, or the "stories" told about this "party" town. Whatever their reason for choosing Sandpoint, one of the first businesses to greet them was the Pend d’Oreille Hotel. Situated adjacent to the railroad tracks it was...
Chemehuevi Sites in the Western Mojave Desert in the Late Nineteenth Century: Continuation of Desert Adaptations by Chemehuevi Migrants in the Ranching Era (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Expanding Our Understanding of the Mojave Desert: Emerging Research and New Perspectives on Old Data" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This presentation will discuss several sites in the southern Antelope Valley (western Mojave Desert) that were occupied in the late nineteenth century by Chemehuevi family groups. At one of these sites, a traditional circular structure—dwelling—dating from that era was photographed in...
