Aviators Down! Tuskegee Airmen in Michigan (2020)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Wayne R. Lusardi.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Strides Towards Standard Methodologies in Aeronautical Archaeology" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. During the middle years of World War II, Michigan was selected by the U.S. Army Air Force as a place for advanced training of African-American pilots that had graduated from the Tuskegee flight program in Alabama.

Where the Hunters Hunted: Paleoenvironmental reconstruction of the submerged archaeological landscapes of the Alpena-Amberley Ridge, Lake Huron (2015)

In rare cases, such as on the Alpena-Amberley Ridge in Lake Huron, highly visible hunting structures are preserved which offer a unique insight into early hunter-gatherer lifeways, while targeted sediment sample collection provides high-resolution paleoenvironmental information. Since 2011,...
