Physical Characterization of Stoneware Ceramic Materials (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Steven Sarich. Timothy James Scarlett.

The Davenport Pottery manufactured earthenware and stoneware in Utah, between 1853 and 1888. This poster uses data from a broad range of analyses, including XRF, INAA, petrography, and mechanical stress testing to develop profiles of the outcomes of technical processes at the pottery shop. These characteristics then provide insight into various key research topics in archaeology, including pottery systematics, life-expectancy and depositional time lag, experimental archaeology, and the...


Plainware Ceramics from the Surface of the 76 Draw Site, Luna Country, New Mexico (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Gordon Rakita. Michele Pierson.

The 76 Draw archaeological site (LA 156980) is located in southwestern New Mexico. This Medio period (A.D. 1200-1400) site is situated within the northern edge of the Casas Grandes interaction sphere just south of Deming, New Mexico. It includes the remains of pueblo-like adobe structures overlain with a scatter of thousands of artifacts including lithic and mixed ceramics. In the summer of 2013, the University of Missouri and University of North Florida surface sampled the site. One purpose of...


Poaching Pots and Making Places: Slavery and Ceramic Consumption in the Shenandoah Valley (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Matthew C. Greer.

The Shenandoah Valley, with its German / Scots-Irish heritage and its focus on small-scale mixed farming, formed a distinctive region within early 19th century Virginia. Here, unique ways of interacting with global markets emerged as residents profited off the sale of agricultural products while simultaneously choosing to purchase locally made earthenwares over imported wares, practices which reproduced local ethnic identities. However, many of the region’s White residents owed Black Virginians,...


The Politics of Pots: Becoming New Communities in the Historic Northern Rio Grande (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Valerie Bondura.

In contemporary New Mexico, the tripartite division of presumed "Anglo", "Indian", and "Hispano" ethnic communities is naturalized in scholarship and in everyday life, but projecting this division into the past elides diverse historical realities. Pueblo, Apache, and vecino notions of community and landscape stand in contrast to the American imaginaries that underpin some historical anthropology and archaeology in the Southwest. This paper considers the archaeological interpretation of...


Popular Plates, Personal Traits: The Biry House and a Ceramic Analysis from Castroville, Texas (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Erin Whitson. Rebekah Montgomery. Zachary Critchley.

The 1840’s witnessed an influx of immigrants flocking into the United States in search of economic opportunity and stability. The Biry family, along with several other Alsatian families, followed suit in 1844. They established the town of Castroville, Texas and continue to celebrate their Alsatian heritage today. While they did find opportunities within Texas, they were also forced to engage in negotiations of national, ethnic, and class identities. This paper reflects on these negotiations by...


Portrait of a Port: Industry and Ideology in El Salvador (1805-1900) (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Lauren Alston Bridges. Roberto Gallardo.

The impact of the Industrial Revolution affected El Salvador far more slowly in the pre-independence period due to the Spanish trade monopoly. Yet Atlantic World demand for commodities such as balsam, cacao, coffee, indigo, and sugar steadily increased through the early Republican period of independence, encouraging entrepreneurs to invest in the technologies of the nineteenth century. Technologies like the steamship and railroad inextricably connected El Salvador to global markets, resulting in...


Portuguese Ceramics from Newfoundland, Canada. (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Sarah R Newstead. Tânia M Casimiro.

This paper will discuss the presence of Portuguese ceramics found on the island of Newfoundland, Canada.  The Newfoundland cod fishery became an important part of European trade networks which expanded across the Atlantic during the early modern period.  A multinational seasonal fishery was established on the island in the sixteenth century, with this seasonal presence being augmented by permanent English and French colonies during the seventeenth century.  An extensive collection of Portuguese...


Possible Functions of a Late Prehistoric Coarseware from the Estuary Zone of Eastern Soconusco (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Timothy Garfin. Sachiko Sakai. Hector Neff.

Recent surveys in the mangrove zone of far-southern Pacific coastal Chiapas, Mexico, identified a coarse pottery, called "sewer-pipe ware," that was initially thought to have been used in sal cocida salt production during historic times. Distributional and excavation data along with functional considerations, however, point to a potentially more interesting hypothesis, namely that "sewer-pipe ware" vessels may be portable kilns or saggars used in the production of Plumbate pottery, a famous and...


Possible Images of Theobroma cacao in the Prehispanic American Southwest (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Patricia Crown.

The discovery of cacao residues in southwestern pottery raises questions about how much southwestern populations knew about Theobroma cacao. A number of possible images of cacao trees and pods suggest that some southwestern people were either familiar with the tree and the fruit that held cacao beans. Comparisons of Mesoamerican and southwestern imagery offer possible parallels in depiction of trees and fruit, and the southwestern material provides potential iconographic models that may be...

Potteries: Ceramics and the 50th Anniversary of the Society for Post-Medieval Archaeology (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Alasdair Brooks.

Ceramics analysis is central to historical archaeology on both sides of the Atlantic; indeed, the Society for Post-Medieval Archaeology [SPMA], which is celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2016, originally grew out of a group dedicated to the study of post-medieval ceramics in Britain.  This poster outlines some key components of SPMA's internationally significant contribution to ceramics analysis in historical archaeology over the last 50 years, as part of the celebration of this significant...


Pottery Function, Cooking, and Subsistence in the Upper Great Lakes: A View from the Middle Woodland Winter Site in Northern Michigan (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Susan Kooiman.

The relationship between subsistence and food-processing technology is a burgeoning topic in archaeology and has the potential to yield new perspectives on resource choice and cuisine in the Upper Great Lakes. This paper presents the results of exploratory functional pottery analysis from the well-dated Winter site, a Middle Woodland habitation in the western Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The analytic data discussed includes those physical properties affecting ceramic vessel performance, as well...


Pottery of the Department of Chinandega, Nicaragua: Sequence, External Connections, Ethnicity, and Migration. (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Clifford Brown.

I summarize the archaeological ceramics recovered from our excavations in the Department of Chinandega, in northwest Nicaragua. Our analysis is still in an early stage, and we have studied mainly collections from sites on the coastal plain, in the southern half of the Department. We have found Late Preclassic ceramic assemblages intimately linked to those described for Quelepa, Chalchuapa, and Santa Leticia in El Salvador. We have also found Terminal Classic to Early Postclassic assemblages with...


Pottery on the Periphery: Postclassic Ceramics from La Laguna, Tlaxcala, Mexico (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Laura Heath.

This poster examines life at the periphery of the Postclassic Mesoamerican World System, discussing the access that rural or peripheral people may have to the larger economic, political, and informational networks of their region. It addresses these questions by presenting an analysis of the Epiclassic and Postclassic period ceramic assemblages from the site of La Laguna, Tlaxcala, Mexico. Almost all of the sherds come from Feature 185, a sheet midden context deposited during the late...


Pottery Production at Cowboy Wash Pueblo: A Central Village on the Ute Piedmont Frontier (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Kelsey Reese. Molly Iott. Katherine Portman. Donna Glowacki. James Potter.

Cowboy Wash Pueblo (5MT7740), south of Sleeping Ute Mountain in the Northern San Juan Region, is the largest and latest pueblo in the Cowboy Wash Community. In collaboration with the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe, Potter and colleagues (2013) recorded a large rubble area (~1000 m2), 13 pit structures, a potential D-shaped structure, and a surprisingly sparse surface assemblage (n=206). They also noted that the east edge of the pueblo is endangered by arroyo cutting. Due to this and because it was...
