The Good, the Bad, and the Awkward: The Archaeology Open House as Heritage Process (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Bonnie Clark.

The open house has long been a tool employed by archaeologists who wish to engage or at least inform the public about their field work. Projects that have a strong community mandate would seem tailor-made for this type of activity. Yet if these events are to meet their promise they need to move from mere "show and tell" to more thoughtful and theoretical interventions. That is particularly true for sites with difficult or contested histories. This presentation draws on four seasons of open...


Government Maritime Managers Forum XXVI: "The man who has experienced shipwreck shudders even at a calm sea" (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Victor T Mastone.

While this quote from Ovid is often found at the beginning of shipwreck stories, it is applicable the present political situation facing the protection of heritage. Government managers of submerged cultural resources find themselves between storm and calm on a nearly daily basis. We must balance a diverse set of problems, competing interests, and difficult decisions in response to an ever-increasing need to recognize and accommodate a wide range of appropriate uses. Managers use a variety of...


Heritage Across Time and Space: A Transatlantic Conversation between Catoctin Furnace and Ironbridge Gorge (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Polly Keeler. Margaret A Comer.

It seems obvious to say that an industrial heritage site should have strong ties to all of its communities, past and present alike, but how can each best be represented and included in all aspects of site planning and interpretation? The village of Catoctin Furnace enjoys a strong level of community support; current residents actively participate in a wide variety of archaeological and living history events. The planned museum, however, with its added emphasis on past worker communities,...


Heritage and City Foundations in Nineteenth-Century Havana, Cuba (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Paul Niell.

According to national legend, Havana, Cuba, was founded under the shade of a ceiba tree whose branches sheltered the island’s first Catholic mass and meeting of the town council (cabildo) in 1519. The founding site was first memorialized in 1754 by the erection of a baroque monument in Havana’s central Plaza de Armas, which was reconfigured in 1828 by the addition of a neoclassical work, El Templete. Viewing the transformation of the Plaza de Armas from the new perspective of heritage studies,...


Heritage as Liberation? (2020)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Tiffany C. Cain.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Reckoning with Violence" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In this paper, I argue for heritage as liberation. I openly claim that some forms of heritage practice are inherently more meaningful and effective than others. Such practices include what I call substantive and coalitional archaeologies. I argue that although the Critical Heritage Studies Movement—to which many historical archaeologists...


Heritage Enhances Resilience?: The Solomon Butcher History Project of Custer County, Nebraska (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only LuAnn Wandsnider.

Solomon Butcher was a citizen photographer smitten with what he referred to as the "history project," to photodocument the citizens of Custer County, Nebraska as the frontier receded further west. From 1886-1892, he imaged perhaps one third of the occupants, staging them in front of occupied or recently abandoned sod houses and making them party to his commemoration of a constructed pioneer heritage. When severe droughts hit in the mid-1890s, did this shared pioneer "can-do" heritage sustain...


Heritage in post-modern settings: the case of Japan (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Koji Mizoguchi.

The 'post-modern' condition can be characterized by reflexivity, by which is meant that every social fact is scrutinized as socio-historically constructed. The spread of this 'attitude' fundamentally destabilize the sense of the authenticity of heritage. However, as long as we have to accept this constitutive element of social reality, we have to consider how to come to terms with this and how to better utilize this for the betterment of our relationship with heritage and of our life-world. This...

A Heritage of Health Disparities in the Anthracite Region of Pennsylvania. (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Paul Shackel.

In the late nineteenth century immigrants from Southern and Eastern Europe came to the anthracite coal region of Northeastern Pennsylvania. Many of the newcomers were underpaid, underfed, and lived in substandard housing. The coal industry thrived until the end of WWI and it is virtually non-existent today. The region’s memory of the coal industry focuses on the hard work and sacrifice of the newcomers, and how they survived and made a successful life for themselves and for their offspring....


Heritage preservation efforts in northwest Syria (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Salam Al Kuntar.

As the security situation in northern Syria deteriorated following the beginning of the Syrian Revolution/civil war, members of civil society, heritage activists, and museum workers have placed themselves at risk to safeguard the country’s cultural heritage. This paper discusses two heritage protection projects in the Idlib region in northwest Syria, a region that has fallen out of the control of the Assad regime to opposition groups. The projects are self-initiative efforts by local activists...

Heritage Values and Violent Pasts: A case study to evaluate resources to promote ethical treatment of the dead (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Heidi Bauer-Clapp.

Increasing interest in a heritage of violence and dark tourism raises new questions about social, political, ethical, or economic dimensions of heritage values. In this poster I present a case study of St. Helena to examine diverse interests in violent heritage, in this case the island’s little-known use as a refuge for captive Africans liberated from illegal slave vessels. I evaluate the efficacy of existing resources such as codes of ethics and heritage policies in balancing potentially...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Katherine G Watson.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Fish, Oyster, Whale: The Archaeology of Maritime Traditions", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. North Shields Fish Quay has a long history as a flourishing fishing port. However, by the end of the 20th century, its reputation was of disuse and dereliction. Significant heritage-led regeneration prompted it to emerge as an attractive commercial and residential quarter. This relied heavily on the use of fishing...

Immersive Technology as Meaningful Interpretation and Public Discourse for Archaeology and History (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Thomas Whitley.

We are surrounded these days by endless digital online content that interprets historical and/or archaeological materials for the general public. The resolution and amount of this content is increasing more rapidly than the ripeness of a banana in a brown paper bag. But in many ways, this material seems to represent only the objectives of the archaeologists or historians involved. Being able to digitally re-create, or interpret, the past in new and exciting ways is obviously a good thing. But...

International Repatriation: A Study of Awareness Among US-based Practitioners (2023)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Ellen M. Lofaro. Jenna Domeischel.

This is a poster submission presented at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The practice of repatriation has become increasingly nuanced as people and nations around the world have renewed their demands for the return of their cultural patrimony from international – generally, Western – museums. International repatriation has grown so significantly that a number of federal agencies have developed working groups devoted to the topic, and universities and museums...


Intersectional Violence and Documentary Archaeology in Rosewood, Florida (2013)

The former town of Rosewood was settled in the mid-1800s and by 1900 was a successful, majority African American community.

"Knowledge Without Action…": Shifting Frames of Reference in Archaeology Theory and Practice (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only George Nicholas.

Following 15th-century philosopher’s Wang Yangming’s statement that "Knowledge without action is not real knowledge," I explore the value of knowledge that emanates from evidence-based practice grounded in descendant community’s engagement with heritage, and it subsequent application in two realms. The first is research at the interface of Traditional Knowledge (TK) and Western science; the second a series of community-initiated and -directed studies funded by the Intellectual Property Issues in...
