"Material Culture Studies as an Alternative Mitigation: an Example from the US Route 301 Project" by Rachael E. Fowler and Kenneth J. Basalik, Ph.D. (2016)
Abstract: Additional archaeological fieldwork is not always the most cost effective means of mitigating project impacts to archaeological sites. DELDOT in conjunction with the Delaware SHPO has recently developed a series of alternative mitigations for projects on the US Route 301 Project. One of these alternative mitigations involves material culture studies. The material culture studies are unusual in that they address the material culture from numerous historic archaeological sites...
Material Expressions of Class, Status and Authority Amongst Commissioned Officers at Fort Yamhill and Fort Hoskins, Oregon, 1856-1866. (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The 19th century United States Army was a military institution characterized by a hierarchical system of authoritative, social and economic inequality between members of its different military grades. Although necessary for insuring military discipline this system of inequality also influenced the non-military social lives of officers and their families coloring much of military...
Material Expressions of Rank: Non-Verbal Communication Amongst Commissioned Officers at Fort Yamhill and Fort Hoskins, Oregon, 1856-1866 (2017)
The 19th century U.S. Army was a hierarchically ranked subculture characterized by a caste-like system of institutional inequality. Individual officers were commissioned into hierarchically ranked military classes, known as ranks, that were both authoritatively and socially distinct and within which each officer behaved in accordance with military discipline and a strict set of non-militaristic social norms. This paper examines how commissioned officers at two mid-19th century U.S. Army posts...
Materiality and Meaning in the Formative Gulf Lowlands (2016)
In Formative Mesoamerica the built environments of San Lorenzo and La Venta became unique topographic assemblages combining local and regional materials drawn from riverbeds, salt domes, nearby hills, and distant volcanic peaks. These sites can be viewed as microcosms of their regional landscapes, incorporating natural forms and geographic referents as a way to manifest elite authority over the natural and human worlds. Integrated into these architectural settings were large-scale sculptures...
Measuring Variability in Jaw Harps on Enslaved Sites (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. During excavations of an early 19th-century quarter site for enslaved field laborers at Monticello, archaeologists have recovered four jaw harps. This high quantity stands in contrast to other excavations at sites at Monticello. This paper aims to contextualize this find. We trace temporal and spatial trends in the abundance of jaw harps in a sample of slavery-related sites in North...
Meet the Andersons: Urban Archaeology of the 19th century in Quebec City, Canada (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Comparative Perspectives on European Colonization in the Americas: Papers in Honor of Réginald Auger" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Since 2017, the Anderson site in the Limoilou neighbourhood of Quebec City has been excavated by Université Laval’s historical archaeology field school. The rich material culture of the 19th century recovered since 2018 has created significant local interest in the project....
Microregions and Materiality: Artifact Analysis at Panchmata, India (2017)
Regional, landscape, and spatial analyses in South Asia are often conducted at large scales in order to encompass all potential sites that share a common material culture, polity, or economic system. As these analyses often overlap with culture history designations and simultaneously span multiple geographic and environmental conditions, they can obscure material diversity and human-environment relations. This paper carefully considers scale of analysis and argues that microregions, small areas...
Microscopic and Spectrometric Techniques Applied to Identify Luxury Materials in a Fifteenth-Century Aztec Shield (2019)
This is an abstract from the "From Materials to Materiality: Analysis and Interpretation of Archaeological and Historical Artifacts Using Non-destructive and Micro/Nano-sampling Scientific Methods" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In the collections of the world, only six aztec feathered objects exist: three shields and a headdress in Europe, and two shields in Mexico. Mexico’s National Museum of History conserves one shield, made of mammal hide,...

Mobility, Material Culture, and Metis Identity: A comparison of 19th century wintering camps in the Canadian West (2016)
Relationships between artifact assemblages and cultural identities are complex and difficult to disentangle. The Canadian west during the 1800s provides an interesting historical and archaeological case study that has potential to shed light on the dynamics of settlement, material culture, and the mobile nature of Métis peoples. Based originally in the Red River Settlement, some of the Métis began to expand west after 1845, forming interconnected wintering communities to participate in winter...

Monte Bibele (Monterenzio, Italy): analysing patterns of cultural interaction between Celts, Etruscans and other Italic populations in northern Italy from the 4th to the 2nd century BC (2017)
The site of Monte Bibele, located near Bologna (northern Italy), contains the remains of a settlement on Pianella di Monte Savino and a necropolis on Monte Tamburino, altogether dating from the 5th to the 2nd century BC. According to historical sources, this region was inhabited by Etruscans and other Italic populations, before it witnessed the invasion of Celtic tribes from the 4th century BC onwards. Following these sources, the main consequence of the invasions has to be seen either in the...
