DATASET Megan Conger.

This dataset contains information for 104 AMS radiocarbon dates from nine Attiwandaron and Tionontate sites in southern Ontario, Canada. Contextual information and information regarding how samples are related to one another is included. This same dataset will be uploaded to CARD (the Canadian Archaeological Radiocarbon Database) after a 2-year data embargo (in 2025).

Archaeological research conducted in the former, now land-filled Gold Rush waterfront of San Francisco has defined a rapidly developed port infrastructure and substantial remains of discarded material culture that comprises a several block wide and deep macro-site. Buried ships, collapsed buildings, pilings from wharves and piers, and discarded cargoes buried by urban expansion and the filling of the are have emerged periodically due to redevelopment since 1907 and discoveries continue well...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Landscapes Above and Below in Northern Contexts (General Sessions)" , at the 2021 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Usually considered a macro-scale phenomenon, world-system expansion is enacted at the local scale, in the context of local sociopolitical histories.

This dissertation establishes a new timeframe for Indigenous participation in world-system expansion in southern Ontario, Canada ca. AD 1550–1650, by investigating how and when people living in three different Indigenous Nations in southern Ontario engaged with the expanding European world-system. This will be accomplished by: 1- Establishing an absolute timeframe for the initiation and development of Indigenous-European interaction through Bayesian chronological modeling of high-precision AMS...
