Sustenance & Style: A Holistic Interpretation of Archaeobotanicals & Artifacts in 19th Century Philadelphia (2020)
This is a paper/report submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Archaeobotanical assemblages can provide a rich and varied perspective on how past communities interacted with plants, their surrounding environment, and each other. As with other artifact types, however, the interpretation of archaeobotanicals is inherently limited due to the specific depositional behaviors and environments necessary for the survival of botanical material....

There Is A Presence In The Absence: Exploring Parallels and Discontinuities Between British Isles and West African Belief Systems In North American Folk Tradition (2022)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Paper / Report Submission (General Sessions)" , at the 2022 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Social scientists of the mid-19th to early 20th century asserted that the mythos and practices of the Black American south were merely a memetic repository of British folk tradition. Later, West African magico-religious folk practices were recognized in the lifeways of Black Americans, with archaeologists exploring the associated...

"Tombstones of the Rudest Sculpture:" Bob Schuyler, Stalwart Champion of Cemetery Studies (2017)
Cemetery studies have been an important minor chord in historical archaeology since the discipline came of age in the 1960s. Generations of students have learned about seriation by reading Deetz and Dethlefsen’s seminal works on colonial New England tombstones (A project where Bob assisted with the fieldwork). More recently, many other historical archaeologists: Baugher, Brown, Cippolla, Crowell, Heinrich Mackie, Mytum, Stone, Tarlowe, and this author, have trod in this same well-worn...

Tracing Connections: Seventeenth-century Derry/Londonderry in global perspective (2023)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Global Materialities: Tracing Connections through Materiality of Daily Life", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The walled city of Derry-Londonderry was a central place in the seventeenth-century Ulster Plantation, designed as a fortified English settlement intended to operationalize English authority over the north of Ireland. Yet it also was a city in which people made their lives, subverting and transcending...
The Trent House Personified: Using Artifact Biographies to Tell the Tale of a Storied House (2023)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Artifacts are More Than Enough: Recentering the Artifact in Historical Archaeology", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Archaeological excavations at the William Trent House in Trenton New Jersey have revealed thousands of pre-contact and historic artifacts reflecting the occupation of this site from deep prehistory to the present. This site is one of the Delaware Valley’s most significant historic sites. This...
Tutankhamun’s Burial Assemblage: Normative or atypical mortuary practices of the Eighteenth Dynasty of ancient Egypt? (2017)
The burial assemblage found in the tomb of Tutankhamun, a pharaoh of the Eighteenth Dynasty (circa 1330 BCE) of ancient Egypt, is one of the most renowned collection of artifacts to survive from antiquity. But does it fit within the normative mortuary practices of the Eighteenth Dynasty? A closer and more comprehensive examination of the material culture found in the tomb of Tutankhamun indicates that several normative patterns were followed; however, many of the artifacts suggests atypical...
A Twitch or a Wink: A Search for Meaning in Coins, Cuffs, and Pottery from a Rural Virginia Assemblage (2018)
There are countless ways to interpret archaeological assemblages. One can take a purely functionalist approach. Plates are for eating and cups for drinking; fasteners keep clothing from falling. However, confronted with a range of symbolically charged artifacts from a Late Colonial through Early Republic period site in Northern Virginia, one is tempted to draw upon our anthropological origins to find meaning. A cuff link commemorating the fox hunt as well as coins and pottery bearing classical...

Los objetivos del análisis fueron identificar los...
Underpinning a Plantation: A Material Culture Approach to Consumerism at Mount Vernon Plantation (2016)
This paper adopts an object-centered, material culture approach that triangulates between three primary sources – George Washington’s orders for goods through the consignment system, inventories from a local, Scottish-owned store, and the archaeological record at Mount Vernon plantation – lending fresh insight into the nature of the mid-eighteenth century consumer revolution and addressing questions about elite and non-elite consumer behavior. By quantifying the robust dataset of Washington’s...

Urban material culture in Copenhagen in the post medieval period (2013)
Refuse dumps in Copenhagen comprise a broad variety of imports from abroad and show that the new world did indeed influence a small capital like Copenhagen in the post-medieval period. The archaeological finds are unique in an international perspective. Well-preserved leather, textile, hair and other organic components supplement the common ceramic material. The finds from several large post-medieval waterfront excavations form a very strong archaeological source material for urban material...
The use of photography to contextualize archaeological finds from the Holocaust (2016)
Studying the Holocaust from an archaeological perspective is a relatively new line of investigation, yet it is very important as many of these camps were hidden by the Nazis to conceal incriminating evidence. There may be knowledge of them, perhaps a few documents or survivors, but what happens when they die? What evidence will we have left concerning their resources, activities, or life conditions? The work done by archaeologists that study the material culture can help put the pieces together...
