The recent dung-based identification of potential livestock enclosure features at four...


Early New York Oyster Jars (2020)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Chris Pickerell.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Specialized Ceramic Vessels, From Oyster Jars to Ornaments" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Pickled oysters were one of New York’s first and most recognizable exports. The earliest documented mention was in a mid-17th century letter that described how glass bottles containing oysters were shipped to the West Indies. Following this, it appears oysters were regularly stored and shipped in small wooden casks....

DOCUMENT Citation Only Becky Shelton. Bryan Jameson.

In 2014, a dedicated landowner began the search for the home of Cleng Peerson, founding father of Texas’s earliest Norwegian settlement. Subsequently, members of the Texas Archeological Stewardship Network conducted extensive archival research and field investigations. They verified that Peerson had given 160 acres to Ovee Colwick in 1860 in exchange for a place to live his final years, and the landowner owned the property that contained the Colwick homestead. Excavations revealed remains of a...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jose L Casaban. Roberto Junco.

Shortly after the conquest of Mexico, Cortes ordered the construction of a second shipyard on the Pacific coast, known as El Carbón.

An Early Twentieth Century Ceramic Assemblage from a Burned House in Northern Georgia (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Patrick H. Garrow.

Most of the sites we investigate have architectural remains, middens, and features. Artifacts collected from middens often span the history of the site. Features may represent frozen moments in time, but rarely reflect the total material culture of the household and contain artifacts that have been removed from their household and discarded. The site discussed in this paper contains a residence that was destroyed by fire during the second decade of the twentieth century. The house was occupied...

East Meets West: Indigenous Use of Indo-Pacific Cowries on the Great Plains (2020)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Barbara Heath.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Beyond Ornamentation: New Approaches to Adornment and Colonialism" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Indo-Pacific cowrie shells entered North America in the late 17th and early 18th centuries as part of colonial expansion reliant on a global network of trade that commoditized both people and animals. Over the course of the 19th century, Indigenous people of the mid-west and Great Plains incorporated these...

East Tennessee Earthenware: Continuing The Tradition (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Stephen T. Rogers.

The early production of earthenware pottery was concentrated in upper East Tennessee where thirty-three of the forty-five recorded earthenware pottery sites were located.  Centered in Greene County, earthenware production began about 1800s and lasted in several isolated areas until the 1890s.  This continuation of older ceramic traditions previously established in Pennsylvania, Virginia, and especially North Carolina demonstrate the diffusion and evolution of regional variation as potters...


Eastern Virgin Hinterlands: Ancestral Puebloan Settlement in Grand Canyon National Park (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Philip Mink.

Margaret Lyneis, in her 1995 description of the Virgin Branch region, notes that three of the boundaries are quite distinct as they adjoin "non-Anasazi" societies. The eastern boundary is more diffuse, as the Virgin and Kayenta Puebloan traditions intersect in an area that is now part of Grand Canyon National Park. In this paper I will argue that Virgin settlement patterns in the western half of the Grand Canyon are distinct from the Kayenta and follow the upland/lowland pattern described for...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Ana C. Opishinski.

This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. During the early colonial period of New Mexico (1598-1680) secular and religious governing bodies developed simultaneously to manage the colony, the colonists, and the indigenous people already residing in the region. One of the resulting differences between secular and religious households was in labor rules and structure, especially regarding the Pueblos and other conscripted or...
