Can Firing Position of WWII Soldiers Be Determined by Shell Scatters? Preliminary Data from Experimental Archaeology (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. This poster describes results from an experiment designed to determine if there is consistency in the shell scatter patterns of the Colt 1911, Thompson M1A1 Submachine Gun, M1 Carbine and M1 Garand, all common weapons of the American World War II Soldier. Forensic Ballistic evidence has proven to be a valid method of inquiry when determining the movements of...
Can You Hear Me Now? – The History of a Telephone Booth in the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness (2018)
The Frank Church – River of No Return Wilderness is an area that allows its visitors to experience solitude in the nation’s largest wilderness in the lower 48. Often unrealized, is that historically, this rugged landscape had quite an extensive communication network while it was managed as the Idaho Primitive Area. One related historic feature managed by the Payette National Forest is the Coyote Springs Telephone Booth. Telephone communications were developed in the area from the late 1920’s...
Canning and Preserving History at The Borden’s Condensed Milk Factory Site in Torrington, CT (2018)
Gail Borden was a man of persistence and a creative inventor. Were it not for his inquisitiveness and drive in the wake of numerous failures, canned milk and Elsie the cow would never have become irrevocably connected in the minds of millions. Failing to make functional his terraqueous prairie- schooner or to make his desiccated meat-bread palatable, he pursued methods of condensing and preserving milk in sealed containers at several locations in Connecticut. Before his success, bacterial...
Cara Blanca Pool 6: Colonial Logging and the Evolving Landscape (2018)
Cara Blanca, in central Belize, consists of 25 pools that run east to west along the base of a limestone cliff. The Pre-Colombian significance of the pools has been studied by the Valley of Peace Archaeology Project, yet little attention has been paid to their Post-Contact influence on the local and regional landscape. This paper explores the role that Pool 6, a shallow lake centrally located in the line of lakes and cenotes, played in colonial logging operations around Cara Blanca. The 2014...
Care and the Disregard of Care in Medieval Ireland (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Mind the Gap: Exploring Uncharted Territories in Medieval European Archaeology" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In recent years, bioarchaeologists have become interested in developing archaeologies of care. Their goal is to articulate evidence of disease/trauma/impairment on skeletons with social processes that shape healthcare and other forms of assistance. Realizing the full potential of this perspective requires...
Carlisle, NM: The Short Life of an Early Gold-Mine (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Carlisle claim was located January 1881. The mine and town operated as the Cochise Company until 1883 when it was acquired by N. K. Fairbanks, the lard king of Chicago. Within a year, Fairbanks sold the mine and nascent town to a London consortium operating as the Carlisle Gold Mining and Milling Company, Ltd of London. With a 40-stamp mill, hotel,...
Casa Crecida: A Buried Eighteenth Century Spanish Colonial Site in Bernalillo, New Mexico (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Casa Crecida site (LA 114201) represents the remains of a mid to late eighteenth century Spanish Colonial habitation in what is now Bernalillo, New Mexico. Situated on the terrace of the Rio Grande, the site appears to have been abandoned during a major flood around the A.D. 1820s. This poster presents the results of geophysical survey and data recovery...
A Case for Islam: Bioarchaeological Research on the Ottoman Period in Southeast Europe (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Mind the Gap: Exploring Uncharted Territories in Medieval European Archaeology" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The introduction of Ottoman control and the arrival of Islam in Southeast Europe during the late medieval period greatly influenced both historical and modern populations. In spite of this impact, this cultural and religious influence remains a topic understudied in archaeology. With Christianity the dominant...
The Case for Shipwreck Material Culture Studies: Identifying Sixteenth Century Spanish Provisioning Patterns Using Ceramic Analysis from the Emanuel Point II Shipwreck (2024)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Archaeological research related to Tristán de Luna’s 1559-1561 colonization attempt has produced new insights into early colonial Spanish culture as well as broader realizations applicable to the whole field. One such avenue of research focuses on the analysis of material culture pertaining to both the terrestrial settlement and also, the shipwrecks...
Casta, Class, or Race? Social Transformations at the Colonial Port of Veracruz (2018)
The social structure of colonial New Spain underwent large-scale transformations following the Spanish conquest. Changes in social categories of identification evolved through an interplay between religious and civil administrators -- who attempted to control colonial populations -- and local social relationships of interpersonal interaction. I examine social relations and changing categories of identification at the colonial Port of Veracruz. Throughout the colonial period, Veracruz served as a...
Casting Experiment for a Small-Sized Bronze Statue of Buddha Dating to the Tang Dynasty (2019)
This is an abstract from the "From Tangible Things to Intangible Ideas: The Context of Pan-Eurasian Exchange of Crops and Objects" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The four-footed base is a specific structural feature of bronze statues of Buddha in China during the fourth to ninth century BC. This feature appears to have been made using the lost wax method, but experimental methods indicate that the four-footed base was made with the sand mold...
Castle Ballintober, County Roscommon, Ireland: The Castles in Communities Project (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Exploring the Gaelic Social Order through Castle Archaeology" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The Castles in Communities program at Ballintober Castle in County Roscommon, Ireland has been studying the construction sequence of the castle and the newly discovered deserted medieval village in the hinterlands. As we work with the community of Ballintober we are faced with a conundrum of how best to present our results as...

Castles in Communities: Recent Findings in the Field (2018)
The archaeological and anthropological field school Castles in Communities, organized by Foothill College, completed its third field season this past summer at the site of Ballintober Castle, County Roscommon, Ireland. The construction of Ballintober Castle (early 14th century) is attributed to the Anglo-Norman Richard de Burgh, Earl of Ulster. Shortly after its Anglo-Norman occupation, the castle came under Irish control (1381) and has been the property of the O’Conor family ever since. After...
Castles of Conquest or Factionalism and the Creation of Political Landscapes (2019)
This is an abstract from the "The State of the Art in Medieval European Archaeology: New Discoveries, Future Directions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Castles play a significant role in the creation of a social and political landscape. The placement and proximity of castles to each other and to other places in the landscape can be markedly different depending on the political circumstances of their creation. The castles of Germany’s Altmühltal...

Cattle Colonialism: A Comparative Perspective on Chickasaw Territory and Latin America (2021)
This is an abstract from the "Afro-Latin American Landscapes" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Indigenous and enslaved people’s increasing global encounters with cattle in the nineteenth century present unique vantage points from which to understand the diversity of engagements that constituted and created capitalism, settler-colonialism, and Afro-Indigenous Landscapes. The archaeology of Levi Colbert’s Prairie (LCP), in the Chickasaw territory of...
Caught between East and West: Southern Calabrian Political Landscapes and the Mediterranean World, 400–900 CE (2018)
Calabria in the first millennium CE does not fit easily into many of the established narratives that are usually applied either to the western or the eastern Mediterranean, nor yet into standard categories of periodisation, which often carry implicit assumptions related to these narratives. Using material, visual, and textual evidence, this poster explores fifth- to ninth-century southern Calabrian political landscapes, particularly the area around Bova Marina, in their broader Mediterranean...
CCompositional Analysis of Low-Fired Coarse Earthenware Excavated Archaeologically from Two Anguillan Eighteenth- to Nineteenth-Century Plantation Sites (2023)
