Pigs and humans have formed a mutualistic and symbiotic relationship since antiquity. In North America, large quantities of pig bones have been recovered from Chinese diaspora sites, indicating the importance of pigs to Chinese immigrant foodways. By analyzing pig dental calculus...

Investigating the Archaeology of Shifting Community Values at Chrisholm Farmstead (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Throughout the 19th century, Amish and Mennonite settlers fleeing persecution settled in the United States. In this study, I focus on families who settled in what is now Butler County, Ohio. For these settlers, there is a robust historic record telling a story of the community shifting from conservative Amish to more liberal Mennonites. I investigate to what...

Irish Immigration and Urban Transformation in a Boston City Neighborhood (2015)
When working class European immigrants first arrived on American shores, they had a profound effect on American cities. Throughout the nineteenth century, the processes of industrialization coupled with Boston’s position as a shipping hub created an influx of low-income laborers in need of housing. The Clough House, a colonial home built around 1715, functioned as a single-family residence for a century before being converted into a tenement for the working class. This poster explores the impact...
Irish Independence in the Crapper? Irish Republican Army Buttons in San Francisco (2017)
This paper examines two Irish Rublician Army buttons discovered in a privy associated with a late 19th century household in San Francisco in order to elucidate how Irish immigrants became Irish Americans on the West Coast. Archaeologits and historians have studied the Irish Diaspora, this they have largely focused on the Northeast. While the Irish Republican Army is familiar to contemporary audiences, many people are unaware of the organization’s 19th century roots in the United States. The...
"Irishness" and Tea Consumption: The Materiality of Ethnicity (2018)
Excavations at the McHugh Site (47WP294), a mid-to-late Nineteenth Century homestead in Wisconsin, resulted in the recovery of a large material culture assemblage. Historical documents reveal the site’s occupants to have been pre-famine Irish emigrants who settled in Ohio before moving to Wisconsin in 1850. However, analyses of the material culture have thus far failed to uncover evidence of an Irish identity distinct from an American identity. This paper presents results of an analysis of the...
Irreducible Reducción: Archaeological Microhistory at Mawchu Llacta, a Planned Colonial Town in Highland Peru (2017)
The Reducción General de Indios (General Resettlement of Indians) in the Viceroyalty of Peru brought about one of the largest mass resettlement programs ever enacted by a colonial power, forcibly displacing some 1.5 million native Andeans to compact towns (reducciones) built around plazas and churches. As a colonial utopic project, the Reducción was to remake the Andean world in the ideal self-image of Spanish civic and religious community. As materialized manifestations in the Andean...

This is an abstract from the "Recent Colonial Archaeological Research in the American Midcontinent" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. By the first quarter of the eighteenth century, the “blue crescent” of French land claims and settlement had spread across North America from the Acadian coast to southern Louisiana. While French colonial settlements existed contemporaneously throughout the middle of the continent, historians and archaeologists have...
Isolation, Innovation, and Fraud: Assessing Failure in Historical Mining and Metallurgy (2024)
This is an abstract from the "The Archaeology of Failure" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Mining and metallurgy are high-risk endeavors, and failure is common. In the first, the extent and nature of ore deposits are unknown, and the second is prone to mishaps due to inadequate temperature control, poor quality ore, and refractory malfunction, among other factors. Thus, failures in this industry—as measured by output—can be easily attributed to...
It's a Date: A Comparison of Pipe Stem and Ceramics Relative Dating at Christiansted National Historic Site (2019)
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Dating techniques, both relative and absolute, are key members of the archaeological toolkit. They serve to chronologically situate the remnants of past peoples, material or otherwise, in the overarching narrative of a place or region. However, not all methods of dating are created equal, and the utility of a particular method for clarifying the historical and...

The first Afrodescendant peoples arrived in the Americas on Spanish ships to the island of Hispaniola in 1492, and by 1502 played an integral role in the development of the colony of Spanish Santo Domingo. Both free and enslaved Afrodescendants undertook most of the labor needed to construct the urban landscapes on the island, as well as the production of...
