The LaPointe-Krebs House or "Old Spanish Fort" (archaeological site 22JA526) in Pascagoula, Mississippi, is evidently the oldest standing structure in that state. Archaeological test excavations in and adjacent to the house in 1979, 1992, and 1994, 1995, and 2010 have revealed a complex sequence of colonial-period occupation and building on that site. Apart from some sporadic prehistoric occupation during the Middle Woodland period about two millennia ago, the major occupation occurred between...

Elevated concentrations of heavy metals in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century privy nightsoil samples raise questions related to historical medicine use. Historical evidence of medicinal practices demonstrates the frequent use of heavy metals in medicine. Previous archaeological studies of medicine have used medicine bottles to examine the potential differences in access to medicine across class. However, due to the difficulty of interpreting medicine bottles as evidence of medicine use, the...

Archaeology is defined by its grounding in material objects; without contextual elements of space and place, however, material culture is devoid of much of its meaning and archaeological information. This article focuses upon pre-Columbian objects – including gold, ceramics, and stone artefacts - from a small, localized area of the Chiriquí region of western Panamá in the context of the volcanic landscape. The discussion is intended as a provocative introduction to the archaeology of highland...
