Production and Consumption in the Old West: Examining Cottage Industry and Diet at the Nate Harrison Site (2018)
A life-long laborer, Nate Harrison engaged in many industrious activities during his time on Palomar Mountain in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Using historical, photographic, and archaeological evidence, this paper aims to analyze and evaluate the different industries in which Harrison participated and the significance of these activities for the local community. Soil-chemistry studies, faunal analyses, and various archaeologically-uncovered tools present a robust portrait of activity and...
Productive Partnerships: How Municipal Cultural Resource Management (CRM) Programs and Student Research Can Support Each Other (2016)
For decades, Cultural Resource Management (CRM) projects have yielded a wealth of information and artifacts. While some of these projects have been incorporated into academic research, many remain unstudied and unpublished. The situation is especially problematic in municipal and small-scale archaeology programs that are constrained by time, logistics, and budgetary considerations. Fortunately, students are in a prime position to help remedy the issue by working with such programs. The...

Programme to Practice: Public Archaeology Is Feminist Archaeology (2018)
Margaret Conkey and Joan Gero published "Programme to Practice: Gender and Feminism in Archaeology" in 1997 to underscore the ways feminist critiques of science could transform the practice of archaeology. In this paper, we argue that their feminist critique profoundly shaped the practice of public archaeology. We explore the nature of scientific inquiry, multivocality, politics and collaborative forms of knowledge production, and the necessity of making interpretations more meaningful as...

Projectile Points (1940)
J. Whittaker: Size of points is not a good marker for dating "pre-bow" - Pt 87 mm long, 37 wide on arrow still shoots many "too large" pts actually ok for bow and arrow. Experiments with self bow and Basketmaker type atlatl: "Any close degree of accuracy is impossible with atlatl and spear." (uses overhead sweep, full extension) 6 mo practice "can't hit buffalo 1 out of 10 at 30 yards." Bow much more accurate. Dart greater penetration than arrow with same pt. Maximum atlatl throw 81...
Promised Land or Purgatory? The Archaeology of Florida’s Rural African American Towns (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Historical Archaeology of Capitalism’s Cracks" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Florida was once home to dozens of thriving, rural African American towns. These towns were largely destroyed through intersectional violence; the multidimensional ways interpersonal, structural, and symbolic violence interweave across time and space. Only a handful of these communities survived, and they did so by existing at...
Promises and Problems with Electronic Archeological Data and Citizen Science (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Archeology, Citizen Science, and the National Park Service" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Instantly replicable and easily shareable, electronic archeological data passed across the internet are ripe with the tantalizing possibility of increasing the discipline's capacity to gather and analyze information, and to interpret and disseminate the results with great efficiency and, (perhaps) creativity....

Cultural heritage has been presented to the public in a variety of traditional and engaging formats from heritage and archaeological fairs, museum exhibits, movies, plays, school curriculum, conferences, merit badge programs, books, etc.,--- and through artwork. With the preparations and events leading up to San Antonio’s big 300th celebration of the founding in 2018, the recent designation of our five San Antonio Missions as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the archaeology-artist team present an...
Pronghorn and Pine Nuts in the Privy: Foodways of St. Michael’s Mission on the Navajo Nation (2020)
This is a poster submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Near present-day Window Rock, Arizona, St. Michael’s Mission, established in 1898, was the first permanent Catholic mission to the Navajo. A surface survey and excavation of the privy in 1976 unearthed artifacts from the 1910s to 1960s. In 2019, the Northern Arizona University Historical Archaeology Lab re-catalogued and analyzed those artifacts. The fauna and flora, including both wild...
A Proof-of-Concept Study: Can Fishermen Interviews Locate Historic Shipwrecks? Methodology and Preliminary Results (2015)
With immanent energy development off the US mid-Atlantic coast, submerged natural and cultural resources must be located, classified, and protected. Commercial bottom fishermen may be an untapped primary source of local environmental knowledge about shipwrecks and hard bottom morphology (natural reefs). This proof-of-concept study utilizes a sequenced multi-disciplinary methodology: ethnographic interviews, GIS cluster analysis of "hang" locations, side scan sonar surveys, and obstruction...
Propelling Change: A Statistical Analysis of the Evolution of Great Lakes Passenger Freight Propeller Vessels (2018)
During the 19th century, passenger freight propeller vessels were used to transport goods and people to the newly opened Great Lakes region. This migration was fueled and supported by many factors, which have all been well discussed, yet the impacts of these factors on the vessels themselves have not received as much attention. While improvements in technology and steel surely affected how these vessels were built, canals, insurance requirements, and consumer needs would have also impacted these...
"A Proper and Honorable Place of Retreat for the Sick Poor": Bioarchaeology of Philadelphia’s Blockley Almshouse Cemetery (2017)
Philadelphia’s Blockley Almshouse served as one of the primary centers of medical education in nineteenth-century America. Operating between 1835 and 1905, "Old Blockley" was served by some of the era’s most prominent physicians, including the "father of modern medicine" Sir William Osler, and Elizabeth Blackwell, the first woman to earn a medical degree in the United States. Excavation of one of the almshouse’s two cemeteries in 2001 revealed over 400 graves and thousands of anatomical...

A Proposal for Investigating Identity, Class, and Labor in Washington State Worker Settlements (2015)
This paper will propose research to address the formation of ethnic identity and class consciousness as manifested in the material remains of workers and administrators in Washington State working camps. From the mid-1800s to the Great Depression, logging and mining camps and company towns formed a critical part of Washington’s and the Pacific Northwest’s economies. The archaeology of labor-related sites in this region and period has been historically under-researched, and the relationship...
A Proposed Methodology for Assisting with Decisionmaking in Shipwreck Management (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Shipwreck management is complex and affected by many different variables. A methodology for analyzing historic and archaeological shipwreck management will be proposed, and the potential for creating a reference aid for shipwreck management will be discussed. This methodology seeks to understand the motivation behind previous management decisions and ascertain if the decisions are...
A Proposed Methodology for Elemental Analysis using portable X-Ray Fluorescence on Lead (Pb) Projectiles (2018)
As the field of battlefield archaeology continues to evolve, adopting new techniques and technologies, it is important that we as a community strive to collaborate, share, and develop standards for which to compare research. The introduction of pXRF technology to source lead projectiles, differentiating their country of origin by trace elements, was presented in 2014 and created a wave of interest in the technology. Unfortunately, this recent fervor has resulted in projects with varied...
