Dialogues on the Experience of War: Difficult Heritage (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jennifer F McKinnon. Anne Ticknor. Anna Froula.

War in the Pacific: Difficult Heritage recently engaged veterans, veteran families, and WWII survivors on the Pacific island of Saipan in considering how conflict heritage can be seen as universal to humanity and how it can be used to examine the veteran’s experience. The starting point for this consideration was to focus on the historical and contemporary warrior/veteran’s experiences as it relates to collective human experience of war and how we might come to understand and interpret the...


Displacement, Memory, and Community Heritage Work in the Old City of Acre (Israel) (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Evan P. Taylor.

In 2001, the Old City of Acre, a Palestinian quarter of the mixed Jewish-Palestinian municipality of Acre in northern Israel, was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site and state projects are underway to transform the Crusader and Ottoman-era landscape into a tourist attraction. This research asks how residents, most of whom belong to internally displaced families of 1948, are navigating the state heritage project. Memories of displacement  and of the relative safety and autonomy found in the...


Divergent Heritages: Two Case of Labor Conflict (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Maura A Bainbridge.

Ludlow, Colorado and the Pullman neighborhood of Chicago present two contrasting examples of a postindustrial environment.  Both were the sites of significant labor conflicts of the 20th century, but their preservations have taken opposite paths. Today Pullman stands as a National Monument and historic district, while Ludlow is a granite memorial in a so-called ghost town.  This paper compares both the material aspects of these postindustrial environments and the publics who interact with them....


Diverse Threats to MAST And Its Heritage in Africa : Confronting Historical Amnesia And Salvors; Securing Slim Resources And Social Relevance (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jonathan Sharfman.

In much of the developing world a triumvirate of treasure hunting, politics, and a lack of technical capacity/resources have skewed portrayals of what maritime history is and why it is meaningful. Shipwreck sites in particular have been promoted as the embodiment of the heritage of "the other" with little local relevance. Treasure hunters accordingly go unchecked in their efforts to recover valuable historical cargos—with detrimental effects for the archaeological inventory. This paper will...

The Electric Shield: Stopping Thieves & Turning Hearts with New Technologies (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Donny Knowles.

The Bahamas has a long and storied history of strife and adventure on the high seas, likely longer and richer than anyone knows. Our history is being poached; stolen from the ocean floor and shipped off to auction overseas. These aren’t trophies; they are triumphs and graves, gone and forgotten. Entering nautical archaeology as an outsider has shown me what the average Bahamian can do to expel these thieves from the wealth of our waters, and take back what is ours so we can share it with our...


Encounters in the East African Bush: Game Trophies, African Hunting and the (Neo)Colonial Appropriation of Heritage (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Alexandra C Kelly.

This is an abstract from the "Itinerant Bureaucrats and Empire" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. This paper traces growing colonial anxiety surrounding the management of East Africa’s natural heritage through sporadic encounters between white and indigenous hunters, distraught villagers, colonial officials, smugglers and safari tourists. Concerns about the availability of game for sport hunting, the supposed "cruelty" of indigenous hunting...


Engaging the "First Person" in the Past – BACAB CAAS Revisited (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Lewis Messenger, Jr..

Descendant, often indigenous, communities, have felt varying degrees of tension between themselves and archaeologists. Historically this results from an archaeology that often treated ancient cultural materials as specimens to be scientifically analyzed. While seen as contributing to the greater knowledge, the sense of the ancient individual, of the person – those often perceived as direct ancestral kin of descendant communities – is lost. In many cases this has led toward feelings of distrust...

An Evidence-based Reinterpretation of the Brafferton Indian School (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Danielle Moretti-Langholtz. Buck Woodard.

The 1693 Charter establishing the College of William & Mary in Virginia, includes a mandate to educate the "Western Indians." After securing funding for the Indian school from the estate of the scientist Robert Boyle, a magnificent Georgian-style structure was built to house the "Indian boys." The received history about this endeavor maintains that the Indian school at William & Mary was unsuccessful. Documentary evidence from both sides of the Atlantic, as well as archaeological evidence,...

Exploring the Perils and Promise of Community Engaged Archaeology at Xaltocan, Mexico (2021)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Kirby E Farah.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Oral History, Coloniality, and Community Collaboration in Latin America" , at the 2021 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. In the small central Mexican town of Xaltocan, a complex web of written and oral histories, material culture, and modern political and social movements have shaped a local heritage that celebrates the town’s long history. Archaeological research, which has intensified at Xaltocan over the past 30 years,...

Finding Our Place: Uncovering Queer Hidden Heritage in the U.S. with the National Park Service (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Leslie Crippen.

LGBTQ history can be traced throughout the vast landscape and diverse material culture of our country, from the tribes of North America, to some of the first-established European forts, to the civil rights struggles that have helped shape our modern world. As part of the National Park Service’s LGBTQ Heritage Initiative, researchers and community members have collaborated to create the Map of Places with LGBTQ Heritage, a visual representation of archaeological and above ground sites that...


Firearm Identification and Cartridge Comparison using Three Dimensional Photogrammetry to Compare Firing Pin Impressions and Tool Marks. (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Scott T. Garrold.

The use and applicability of multi-image photogrammetry was investigated to identify and compare the tool marks left on fired brass cartridges found in archaeological contexts.  The firing marks imprinted on brass handgun and rifle cartridges were used to identify the firearm from which the particular cartridge was chambered and fired. A Nikon DSLR camera and Agisoft Photoscan software were used to create 3D models of cartridge headstamps.  For analysis of tool marks, measurements were taken and...


Friends and Enemies: Heritage Ethnography in the Shadow of the State (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Annalisa Bolin.

Engaged archaeology and public anthropology depend on the goodwill, or at least tolerance, of numerous publics. This is frequently understood to mean local communities and nearby residents, but projects can live or die according to the will of groups less often discussed as part of the target public: authority structures such as permitting agencies or even national governments. How do such organizations figure into the "public" of public scholarship? What happens when research is pressured to...


From Manual to Digital Cataloguing: The The New Street Study, Jamaica (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Dorrick Gray. Michelle Topping.

The Jamaica National Heritage Trust curates archaeological assemblages from excavations conducted in Jamaica over the past 50 years. Until recently, the artifact and context inventories were created on paper. In May 2014 DAACS trained staff from the Jamaica National Heritage Trust in the digitization of the inventory process using the DAACS Research Consortium web-accessible database application. The New Street Collection from Port Royal was chosen as the Trust’s case study site. This DRC...


Gender, Masculinity, and Professional-Avocational Heritage Collaborations (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Siobhan Hart.

Relationships among professional and avocational archaeologists have changed in the last few decades with the increase in collaborative heritage projects worldwide. Professionals and avocationals often work side-by-side on archaeological sites, collaborate on research, and engage in mutual knowledge sharing. However, little attention has been paid to the gendered dimensions of these relationships. Feminist critiques of research and practices within professional archaeology, along with...


Gendered Heritage: Interspaces and Intersubjectivity (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jennifer Campbell.

Ideally, the intersubjectivity of heritage work creates space for the interaction of multiple gendered viewpoints maintaining a collective tension where heritage work flourishes in consideration of multiple lens, multiple meanings, and multiple gendered interpretations. The reality; however, is much further from the rhetoric. In medieval South Asia gender performance was a habituated component of the collective and individual social project. It remains so today. In this paper I work to consider...


Geo-locating Community Memory and Archaeological Heritage Via an Adaptive App (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Jun Sunseri.

The New Mexican dicho "cada cabeza es un mundo," is especially true as hordes of tourists, academics, and others descend on rural northern communities and misunderstandings erupt between keepers of heritage places and those for whom those spaces are invisible. As the result of community-engaged archaeology, partnered research into historically-silenced pasts has led to expanding mandates for project deliverables. One innovation is the development of a smartphone-based historical tour for which...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Carla van Boxtel.

Going Green: Using Environmental Protections to Safeguard the Underwater Cultural Heritage (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Barry Bleichner.

The Caribbean Sea is host to a significant number of colonial-era wrecks and has historically been a prime hunting spot for commercial salvors.  Frequently, salvage of this underwater cultural heritage (UCH) occurred with the blessing of the governing authority or was implicitly endorsed by the courts determining proprietary rights.  Many wrecks are located in ecologically-sensitive areas, however, or serve as substrate for the growth of new underwater habitat.  As such, the wreck sites may...


Good Practice in Digital Commemoration of the Holocaust: An Analysis of COVID-Era Digital Programming at the Time of the 75th Anniversary of Liberation in Europe (2023)
