This is an abstract from the session entitled "Reckoning with Violence" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. To be an African American soldier during the First World War was to be a walking contradiction. Jim Crow laws and white supremacist terrorism tormented black families on the homefront while black men, one generation removed from legal slavery, fought and died for the American cause on the battlefields of France. The African American community prayed...
"I WAS born June 15, 1789, in Charles County, Maryland…" Archaeological Investigations at the Josiah Henson Birthplace Site (2018)
In his 1849 autobiography, Josiah Henson, a former slave, preacher, and conductor on the Underground Railroad, recounted a single, brutal event that occurred at La Grange, the plantation on which he was born. Henson’s account related little about everyday life for the enslaved families at La Grange. In 2016, archaeologists from St. Mary’s College of Maryland undertook a Phase I survey at La Grange. A quarter complex and several individual quarters were discovered during the survey. These...

The I-95/Girard Avenue Improvement Project in Philadelphia: An Overview (2016)
The I-95 GIR Improvement Project is one of the largest transportation related undertakings in Pennsylvania, and the project area winds its way through some of the most historically significant neighborhoods along the city’s Delaware River waterfront. From an archaeological standpoint, the project area encompasses an extremely complex series of sub-surface environments and developmental contexts, within which an astonishing quantity and variety of cultural deposits and features continue to...

An Iberian Smuggler and His Ill-Fated Ship: 2013-2014 Field Surveys for the Navio of Pedro Díaz Carlos (2015)
In March of 1608, Captain Pedro Díaz Carlos and crew were returning to Spain from a round trip South American voyage. His small vessel was loaded with sugar and other goods when it was shipwrecked at the southernmost tip of Portugal while crewmembers attempted to unload contraband. Possibly a patacho or small caravela, Carlos’s ship represents a light class of vessels used for both trans-Atlantic voyaging and coastal work for which we have scant archaeological evidence. In addition to...

Iced Isolation: Opportunity and Desolation in America's Northern Frontier (2015)
Beginning 7,000 years ago, humans have engaged Lake Superior’s Southern Shore in different ways. Entrepreneurs, voyagers, immigrants, and society’s periphery have relished, and shattered, in Superior’s raw, unforgiving climate. The region has been a hotbed for cyclical social and economic change as different ethnic and demographic groups clashed in the ice and snow. This paper presents a unique piece of Lake Superior’s landscape, the Keweenaw Peninsula, as an "island of industry in a sea of...
Icelandic Agricultural Heritage and Environmental Adaptation: Osteometrical and Genetic Markers of Livestock Improvement (2016)
In the early settlement of Iceland, Scandinavian pioneers brought their social knowledge alongside herds of livestock to the untamed island and in turn initiated a millennium-long tradition of livestock husbandry and survivorship in a harsh and unpredictable environment. Decades of integrated historical ecological research across Iceland allows for an exploration of the complex human ecodynamics of this marginal European outpost in the North Atlantic. Comparative osteometrical data from multiple...
Icelandic Livestock Improvement on a Millennial Scale: Biometrical Analyses of Caprine Morphology (2015)
The increase in the size of domestic animals across Europe has often been characterized as a result of the Second Agricultural Revolution. However, zooarchaeology has been able to explore incremental improvements to livestock across Europe beginning in the late medieval period. Intellectually connected to Europe but isolated from significant trade routes, Iceland is a unique location from which to explore the various factors at work during the last millennium that lead to notable increases in...
Idaho Gold: An Analysis of the Ophir Creek Brewery, a nineteenth century Chinese Community (2017)
In 1860 gold was found in Pierce, Idaho. By 1870, the population of the Boise Basin alone reached 3,834 individuals, 46 percent of whom were Chinese. Many immigrants settled in Placerville, Idaho. Between 2002-2003 archaeologists at the Boise National Forest conducted excavations at the Ophir Creek Brewery. This work discusses excavations at the Ophir Creek Brewery, a part of town occupied by many of the Chinese immigrants. Analysis of the archaeological materials recovered from the Ophir Creek...
Idaho's Lake Pend Oreille Story (2017)
Lake Pend Oreille is located 30 miles north of Coeur d’Alene in northern Idaho and has many intriguing aspects including the diverse human occupancy and uses of the lake and its surrounding area. The Native American, early European, and WWII naval training station presence demonstrates a varied and long history. The primary focus of this presentation are the Farragut Naval Training Station and Pend Oreille City history and material culture, in addition to the Native American's interaction with...
The Ideal Site (LA 8671): A Mexican Territorial Residential Site Near Placitas, New Mexico (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Historical Archaeologies of the American Southwest, 1800 to Today" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Mexican Territorial period (1821-1846) is perhaps the least-studied historical period within New Mexico. However, one site that is almost always mentioned in culture history overviews is the Ideal Site, LA 8671, excavated by the UNM field school and Dr. J. J. Brody in 1963-1964. However, there was only one publication...
IDENTIFICATION AND AMS RADIOCARBON DATING OF CHARCOAL FROM THE YAMASHITE-2 SITE, 26CK6445, NEVADA (2010)
Charcoal from a burned stick in a layer of adobe rubble overlying the floor of a habitation room at the Yamashita-2 site, 26CK6445, was submitted for identification and AMS radiocarbon dating. The Yamashita Sites are situated in the lower Moapa Valley of Clark County, Nevada, and consist of masonry structures. Previous radiocarbon analysis of charcoal from a burned post base at nearby site 26CK6444 and identified as Populus (cottonwood) yielded a radiocarbon age of A.D. 125-338.
Identification of Coarse Earthenware Potters on Production and Consumption Sites in Charlestown, Massachusetts Using Biometric Identification (2016)
Every so often, the fingerprints of potters are left in the wet clay of coarse earthenware vessels. Many of these evocative "signatures" have been observed on redware that was excavated from the 18th-century Parker-Harris Pottery Site and Three Cranes Tavern Site in Charlestown, Massachusetts. Using a short-range 3D laser scanner to capture this data, a small comparative data set was compiled to determine if these biometric identifiers (finger and hand prints) could be used to directly connect...
