Public Archaeology in the Nation’s Capital: The Yarrow Mamout Project (2016)
A unique project in Washington, D.C. was initiated by residents when redevelopment threatened a property once owned by Yarrow Mamout. Freed in 1797, Yarrow was literate in Arabic when he was enslaved in west Africa. He purchased a Georgetown lot in 1800 and upon his death was said to be buried in his garden. While many Georgetown residents at the time were former slaves, Yarrow stands out only because his portrait was painted twice. As with most formerly enslaved property owners, he left only a...

In recent years archaeologists have utilized photogrammetry to document at risk sites and...
Recovering Family History: Archaeological Investigations at the James Holliday House in Annapolis, Maryland (2013)

In 2009, the great-great-granddaughter of James Holliday asked Archaeology in Annapolis to help fill in the blanks about her family’s history, simply because there was very little information from family...

RVA Archaeology and the Changing Discourse of Archaeology in Richmond (2016)

Recognizing that conversations about archaeology did not feature the significant "voice" of archaeologists, the community convened a day-long symposium on the history and archaeology of Shockoe Bottom. This gathering led to the formation of RVA...
