Diver-Archaeological Reconnaissance Cooperative (DivARC): Veterans working with Nautical Archaeological Society-New England (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Dan Houlihan. Calvin Mires.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Citizen Science in Maritime Archaeology: The Power of Public Engagement for Heritage Monitoring and Protection" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The process of returning to civilian life after departing military service presents a series of significant challenges to veterans. Often missing from life once back home are opportunities to engage in challenging and meaningful activities of purpose with trusted...

Divergent Heritages: Two Case of Labor Conflict (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Maura A Bainbridge.

Ludlow, Colorado and the Pullman neighborhood of Chicago present two contrasting examples of a postindustrial environment. Both were the sites of significant labor conflicts of the 20th century, but their preservations have taken opposite paths. Today Pullman stands as a National Monument and historic district, while Ludlow is a granite memorial in a so-called ghost town. This paper compares both the material aspects of these postindustrial environments and the publics who interact with them....

Divergent Paths: Reflections on Section 106 and the Archaeology of Nostalgia (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Thomas E. Emerson. Robert F. Mazrim. Duane E. Esarey.

For nearly half-a-century Illinois historical archaeologists have been buffeted by changing disciplinary goals, compliance directives, and academic fluxes. Early efforts in the 1920-50s at Lincoln’s New Salem, French Colonial sites, and pioneer sites were classic "handmaidens to history" designed to materialize significant historic events. The focus shifted dramatically with the NHPA and processualistHistoric emphasis in Criteria D on significance resting solely on material remains. Given the...

Diverse Dining: Post-Emancipation Foodways in Antigua, West Indies (2017)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Alexis K Ohman.

The role of zooarchaeology and foodways in plantation archaeology has aided in teasing out the details of daily life and shifting sociocultural habits during the colonial period. Plantation archaeology has also had a distinct focus on the African diaspora communities. However, the post-Emancipation period complicates the narrative even further as new ethnic communities were brought or drawn to the new labor requirements of plantations at this time. Post-Emancipation Antigua saw an influx of...

Diverse Threats to MAST and its Heritage in Africa : Confronting Historical Amnesia and Salvors; Securing Slim Resources and Social Relevance (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jonathan Sharfman. Justine Benanty. Ricardo Duarte.

In much of the developing world a triumvirate of treasure hunting, politics, and a lack of technical capacity/resources have skewed portrayals of what maritime history is and why it is meaningful. Shipwreck sites in particular have been promoted as the embodiment of the heritage of "the other" with little local relevance. Treasure hunters accordingly go unchecked in their efforts to recover valuable historical cargos—with detrimental effects for the archaeological inventory. This paper will...

Diversity and Strong(er) Objectivity in Historical Archaeology (2020)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Laura E. Heath-Stout.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Gender Revolutions: Disrupting Heteronormative Practices and Epistemologies" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Feminist archaeologists and philosophers of science have long argued that a person’s knowledge is shaped by their identities and their position within society; standpoint theory has specifically contended that marginalized people have an epistemic advantage over their privileged peers in...

Divided: Material Landscapes of Labor in Nineteenth-Century Baltimore City and County, Maryland (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Adam Fracchia.

Like the strikes of the late nineteenth century, especially the Great Railroad Strike of 1877, tensions arising from chronic inequality and marginalization once again led to protests and demonstrations in Baltimore in April 2015. Areas of Baltimore remain alienated along racial and class lines that serve a capitalist process driven by the maximization of profit. This paper examines how this same process resulted in the stratification of immigrant and African American communities in Baltimore...

Dividing Lines: Understanding the Social Spaces of Boundaries at James Madison’s Montpelier (2019)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Myles Sullivan.

This is an abstract from the "Archaeologies of Enslavement" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In the 18th and 19th century, landscape features like fencelines served both utilitarian and socially-charged functions in dividing up spaces on large plantations like James Madison’s Montpelier. In interpreting such boundaries, archaeologists are challenged to understand both the original intent of their construction by planters as well as how these...

Diving In The Desert: A First Look At The Underwater Archaeology Of Walker Lake (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Neil N Puckett.

Underwater investigations of drowned terrestrial sites have become increasingly important to the pursuit of New World, prehistoric archaeology. The Atlantic and Gulf Coast shelves, the rivers of Florida, the Pacific Coast, and the Great Lakes have each provided evidence for human occupations in now inundated landscapes. These pursuits have resulted in invaluable information on human behavior, offered excellent preservation of perishable and datable materials, and often presented uniquely buried...

Diving into the PAST: Developing a Public Engagement Program for Pensacola’s Emanuel Point Shipwrecks (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Nicole Grinnan. Della A Scott-Ireton.

Remnants of Spain’s failed attempt to settle modern-day Pensacola in 1559, the Emanuel Point shipwrecks are legacies of Florida’s long colonial history. Community interest in the sites has been profound since the discovery of the Emanuel Point I wreck in 1992, but challenging dive conditions have limited opportunities for public access. After award of a grant to explore Emanuel Point II in 2014, the University of West Florida (UWF) Division of Anthropology and Archaeology began considering new...

Diving into the Past: The Corsair at Crystal Cove State Marine Conservation Area (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Tricia Dodds.

Crystal Cove State Park is home to many unique cultural resources that tell the story of California’s fascinating past. Its marine conservation area is no less extraordinary. In 1949, a Navy F4U Corsair airplane met its watery grave off the coast of Crystal Cove. Since its rediscovery, this underwater site has been studied and recorded by California State Parks with the assistance of other institutions. In 2014, the California State Parks Dive Team revisited the Corsair to evaluate its current...
