This is an abstract from the session entitled "Considering Frontiers Beyond the Romantic: Spaces of Encroachment, Innovation, and Far Reaching Entanglements" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. This paper examines the history of slavery, abolition, and the transition to nascent colonialism in coastal Sierra Leone from the lenses of the longue durée of history and entanglement concept. It draws on multiple lines of evidence to explore the role of material...

Exhibitions of Gentility at George Washington’s Boyhood Home (2013)
The examination of personal accessories recovered from George Washington’s boyhood home (1738-1774) reveals the family’s efforts to portray their respectability and gentry class identity despite the economic and social anxieties they experienced after the death of their family patriarch. Dedicated analysis of small finds artifacts demonstrate the family’s commitment to genteel behavior and display. Clothing accessories such as powdered wigs and sleeve buttons proclaimed their class, and, on...
Expanding KOCOA’s Potential: The Role of a West Point Military Academy Education on the Second Seminole War Florida (1835-1842) (2015)
The field of conflict archaeology has begun embracing KOCOA as a regular part of battlefield analysis. However, I argue KOCOA can be further expanded to include indirect expressions of warfare and incorporate them into a meaningful discussion of their role in the outcome of conflict. To accomplish this, I develop a model that allows for the investigation of hypotheses about decision-making processes and their effectiveness using the Second Seminole War (1835-1842) in Florida as a case study. In...
Expanding Our Approaches to American Archaeology: An Example from the Greater Chaco Landscape (2023)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2023: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. American archaeology has been in the midst of a transition for many years. Long-suppressed and ignored viewpoints are finally seeing light and interpretations are broadening. In particular, archaeologists are working with Indigenous peoples with new and innovative approaches to understanding the past. As a result, archaeology is changing, although the pace...
Expanding the Dialogue: A Conversation Between Descendent and Archaeologist about Community, Collaboration, and Archaeology at Timbuctoo, NJ (2017)
Meaning is not monolithic. Presented here are different narratives on the interests of archaeologists and descendants. Focus is given to the African American community of Timbuctoo. This project, like many other attempts at community archaeology is not a story of unabated triumphs: rather, these narratives are about the challenges that can emerge through collaboration. This is not meant to demean collaborative archaeology, rather it is to underscore that through pragmatic discourse we can...
Expanding the Historical Archaeology of College Hill: Updates in Excavation, Digital Technologies, and Outreach in Providence, Rhode Island (2017)
The Archaeology of College Hill is a course at Brown University, taught by two graduate students, that aims to train undergraduates in various field methods, documentary research, and readings and discussions of archaeological theory. In 2016, the course underwent several exciting changes. First, it relocated from Brown’s campus, where it had been conducting excavations for several years, to the nearby Moses Brown School. This paper presents the results of two seasons of fieldwork at this new...

Expedition Costa Rica: Cahuita’s Brick and Cannon Shipwreck Sites (2016)
East Carolina University’s Program in Maritime Studies studied two shipwreck sites in Cahuita National Park, Costa Rica. These sites presented unique challenges to the group because of their location, distribution, similarities, unique formation processes, and role as part of a dynamic and protected ecosystem. One site has a brick pile and few scattered artifacts, including cannon, concretions, a grinding stone, and two bottles. The other has 13 pieces of concreted cannon, two anchors, and a few...
Experience Counts: Solutions Historical Archaeologists Can Provide in Response to Climate Change (2016)
For well over a century Historical Archaeologists have been faced with the persistent problem of losing archaeological sites to development. Recently, another challenge has come to the forefront – how these sites are being adversely affected by climate change. Many of the problems encountered were the result of either increased coastal flooding or flooding in areas where former watercourses have been diverted, altered, or filled to accommodate development. In the last decade, requests for...
Experiencing Fort Recovery, Ohio: Balancing Descendent Views in Historic Site Interpretation (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Reflections, Practice, and Ethics in Historical Archaeology" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The Battle of the Wabash (1791) and the Battle of Fort Recovery (1794) in modern day Fort Recovery, Ohio are illustrative of early settler and American Indian conflicts in the expansion of the newly formed American nation. Consequently, the resulting modern battlefield landscape presents an opportunity for public...

An Experimental Approach to Understanding Virgin Branch Puebloan Ground Stone Technology on the Shivwits Plateau (2021)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Ground stone use-wear analyses in the North American Southwest have been increasingly pursued through both collection studies and experimental approaches since at least the 1980s. Although analyses of prehistoric ground stone are common throughout all portions of the North American Southwest, experimental approaches to understanding ground stone technology in...

Experimental Archaeology Applied to Archaeological Investigations in Range Creek Canyon: Emery and Carbon Counties, Utah (2021)
This is an abstract from the "Experimental Archaeology in Range Creek Canyon, Utah" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Archaeological investigations in Range Creek Canyon, in east-central Utah, have led to the identification of 500 prehistoric sites. The majority of sites that can be affiliated are linked to the Fremont Culture, semi-sedentary horticulturalists occupying the region 300–1175 CE. Sites range from long-term habitation sites, artifact...
Experimental Archaeology in Maize Farming at Range Creek Field Station, Utah (2024)
This is an abstract from the "Experimental Pedagogies: Teaching through Experimental Archaeology Part II" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Archaeological evidence in Range Creek Canyon, Utah, shows a heavy reliance on maize farming during the Fremont occupation, 900–1200 CE. Evidence includes numerous corn cobs, ground stone tools, and food storage sites. Since 2013, researchers at the field station have used actualistic maize farming experiments to...
