This is an abstract from the "Individuals Known and Unknown: Case Studies from Two Burial Contexts at Colonial Williamsburg" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. As an institution that has contributed to the Black community's historical erasure, Colonial Williamsburg is still working to rebuild trust and right many wrongs. Few projects have made that more apparent than the First Baptist Church excavation and the rediscovery of its burial ground. With...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Compositional analyses are commonplace in prehistoric archaeology. For example, lithic and pottery analysts regularly use geochemical methods to acquire mineralogical and chemical data that allow them to source artifacts. The geographic patterning of sourced artifacts provides archaeologists with a rich dataset from which they infer seasonal procurement...

This is an abstract from the "Ceramics and Archaeological Sciences 2024" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Beginning around the eighth century the volume and scale of exchange between the societies around the Indian Ocean and southeast Asia increased substantially. Archaeological work at the trade port community of Madayi, in the Kerala State, southwest India provides evidence of the integration of this south Indian community into the contemporary...

This is an abstract from the "Recent Research on Glass Beads and Ornaments in North America" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. n 1864, a factory in Briare, France, began producing Prosser Molded beads for African and North American trade. The beads were made using a novel process combining milk as a binding agent to powdered feldspar, calcium fluoride, silica sand, and coloring elements to create a paste that was pressed into molds, then fired in a...

This is an abstract from the "Reinvent, Reclaim, Redefine: Considerations of "Reuse" in Archaeological Contexts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Farmers and gardeners in the Bahamas have long practiced swidden agriculture to replenish the thin soil layers sitting atop limestone bedrock. These methods recycle the organic materials of the landscape to produce something new and generative. In similar fashion, the historical materials that dot the...

This is an abstract from the "Chicanx Archaeology" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. With a pedigree firmly rooted in the evolution of the American automobile, lowriders trace their origins to the low-slung custom cruisers and social clubs of the 1930s and 40s. In effect, Mexican immigrants of that time were drawn to mutual aid societies in their quest for identity, kinship, camaraderie, and support. This thereby fueled the rise of lowriders and...

This is an abstract from the "*SE New Orleans and Its Environs: Historical Archaeology and Environmental Precarity" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Just upriver from New Orleans, Evergreen was just one of the several hundred plantations that flanked both sides of the lower Mississippi River. We have begun archaeological investigations into the lives of the enslaved at Evergreen, but it has become increasingly clear that this work extends beyond...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The removal of the Comanche from northwest Texas in the early 1870s opened the Southern High Plains eastern escarpment region to new pastores (Spanish sheepherders from New Mexico) and Anglo-Americans, who created order out of the landscape through construction of built cultural heritage. An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) was used to document the built cultural...

This is an abstract from the "Archaeology of Medieval Eurasian Steppe Urbanism" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Permanent settlements of the Mongol Empire era on the Mongolian Plateau seem to be rare and only few sites have been explored so far in some detail. Well-known are Karakorum, the capital of the Mongol Yeke Ulus, Avraga near the Kherlen River, and Khirkhira in Transbaikalia. To date, there is no differentiation of settlements by form and...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The popular "object-biography" approach to commodities generally focuses on hegemonic material culture in the hands of unintended consumers, such as the analysis of "European" goods found in "Native" contexts. What this fails to capture, however, is a kind of consumer agency that extends beyond the politics of identity. In other words, what are the structural...

In the mid-nineteenth century Maya refugees fleeing the violence of the Caste War of Yucatan (1857-1901) briefly reoccupied the ancient Maya ruins of Tikal, Guatemala. These Yucatec speaking refugees combined with Lacandon Maya, and later Ladinos from Lake Petén Itza to form a small, multi-ethnic village in the sparsely occupied Petén jungle of northern Guatemala. The following paper will discuss the recent archaeological investigation of the historic refugee village at Tikal, with a focus on...

This is an abstract from the "Culinary Archaeology" session, at the 88th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Communities of practice are negotiated daily through the use of cuisine. In colonial settings, these communities are contested and reformed, as colonists and colonized negotiate their new found roles. Following the abandonment of the first New Mexican colony after the 1680 Pueblo Revolt, the Spanish Crown recolonized New Mexico in 1692. This second New Mexican...

How were mass-produced consumer goods incorporated into everyday expressions of local and national identity in 19th and early 20th century Ireland? While archaeologists have explored the myriad ways that mass-produced goods circulated throughout the British Empire through networks of trade and exchange, less attention has been given to the way specifically British manufactured goods were incorporated into meaningful practices of material consumption within Irish communities. This project...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The economic and communal importance of alcohol production across the Southeastern United States can be traced from colonization to the present day. From colonists' advertisements for wives who could brew beer, to moonshiners outrunning revenuers and Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms agents, to distillery-based tourism in the present day, alcohol production...

This is an abstract from the "Mediterranean Archaeology: Connections, Interactions, Objects, and Theory" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Among the historic urban centers represented on the UNESCO World Heritage List, nearly half are located in states of the Mediterranean Basin. Through the lens of contemporary archaeology, this paper traces how the material fabric of historic urban centers is manipulated to conform to particular ideas and visions...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In July of 1995, the Soufrière Hills volcano began a series of eruptions that would fundamentally alter the communities and landscapes of the small Caribbean island of Montserrat. By the turn of the millennium, two-thirds of the island had been abandoned or destroyed, and a comparable proportion of the population had relocated abroad. This paper presents the...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2021: General Sessions" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Wickiups—sometimes labeled as lean-tos or even misidentified as tipis—are relatively ephemeral, petite wooden structures with a clear presence in the American Intermountain West. Extensive archaeological research has been conducted into wickiups created by Numic peoples and Utes and Apaches in the protohistoric and historic periods. Yet, as with artifacts and...
