This is an abstract from the session entitled "Transient legacies of the past: Historical Archaeology in the Intertidal Zone", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. By studying site formation processes we can establish a bridge between the archaeological record and past events, but at the same time we can predict the consequences in the near future. This paper seeks to carry out a comparative study of four intertidal sites (Tejar de San Bernabé, Isla Bruja...
Harbingers of early globalization in a regional context: Shipwrecks of the North Frisian Wadden Sea (2023)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Transient legacies of the past: Historical Archaeology in the Intertidal Zone", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The Wadden Sea can be regarded as a traditional zone of transport geography as defined by Christer Westerdahl, a maritime cultural landscape in its own right, which necessitated a distinctive way to interact with the sea. This is reflected in navigation, shipbuilding, coastal management, and a...
New Radiocarbon Dates and Methods for Elucidating the Extent and Timing of use for Intertidal Fishing Features on the Northwest Coast (2017)
Acquiring accurate and precise dates for archaeological materials and features is fundamental for investigating human history on the Northwest Coast (NWC) of British Columbia, Canada. Remarkably few radiocarbon dates for intertidal features exist in the literature, and they are only associated with features that yield objects which can be directly dated, such as fish traps containing wooden stakes. Various numerical and relative dating techniques have been applied to other types of intertidal...
