The site of Swandro is on the eroding coastal fringe of the island of Rousay, Orkney and has been the focus of field training for the next archaeological generation between the University of Bradford, Archaeological Institute UHI and Hunter College, CUNY since 2010. Such sites are a finite resource, endangered by coastal erosion exacerbated by the effects of climate change. The site straddles both the shore and the land and consists of a Neolithic Chambered Cairn and a later settlement dating...

According to 36CFR79, collections recovered with federal funds must be made accessible to the public for research and educational purposes. However, this goal is deceptively difficult to achieve. Collections can be made available to professionals and archaeology students easily enough, but is there a way that we can involve the public in the process? The Veterans Curation Program (VCP), funded by the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), St. Louis District, has become well known for...

Excavation is often the way to mitigate for the loss of cultural resources to comply with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. However, excavation is not always the most practical solution. A case study is presented to demonstrate how alternative mitigations advance the research value of cultural resources, and increase flexibility in land-use decisions by agencies while satisfying the mutual interests of stakeholders. In 2012, four prehispanic Ancestral Puebloan fieldhouses...

This is an abstract from the "Byways to the Past: An American Highway Archaeology Symposium" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

Urban landscapes, those densely populated spaces in which generations of people live, play, work, and die, are complex palimpsest of memories. But not all memories are treated the same or are even chosen to be remembered. My own experiences as an archaeologist living in a modest-sized, rust-belt city for nearly two decades has exposed the never-ending rush of "progress" to erase the past. At both my research sites and my home, I see communities harmed by the trauma of forced erasure of the past...

Some of the least known and best preserved archaeological resources in North America exist within the confines of federal property in the Department of Defense (DoD). The US military acquired large land holdings for the purposes of military training in the early nineteenth century, prior to suburban sprawl in the Northeast. The Army and subsequently the Air Force in a snapshot encapsulated whole communities that evolved in place since colonial times. Those archaeological resources, held in...
