Portuguese finds in Velha Goa (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Brian Wilson.

As the former capital of the Estado da Índia, the Portuguese influence on Goa is evident throughout the region—in its architecture, cuisine, music, religious practices, etc.  In Velha Goa (or Old Goa), perhaps the most striking example of this influence is the well-preserved Catholic churches that dominate the landscape.  However, beyond the few excavations in Velha Goa that centered on these churches, there is a limited archaeological understanding of material culture outside of ecclesiastical...


Post Emancipation Material Culture and Housing on St. Kitts, West Indies (2018)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Todd H. Ahlman.

The post emancipation period in the British Caribbean (post-1834) represented a drastic change for the formerly enslaved Africans on St. Kitts’ sugar plantations as they faced new challenges in their freedom.  This paper presents ceramic and housing data from two structures occupied from the late seventeenth century until the 1850s. Focusing on the period 1800 to 1850, ceramic types and frequencies indicate changes in the acquisition of European ceramics from the era of slavery to the post...


Pots, Pipes & Plantation: Material Culture & Cultural Identity in Early Modern Ireland (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Rachel S. Tracey.

Existing sectarian divides in Northern Ireland are still perceived to originate from the 17th century expansion of British colonial control into Ireland, most resolutely seen in the atrocities of the Northern Irish Conflict, or ‘the Troubles’.  However an explosion of urban historical excavations in recent years has illuminated an archaeological record that appears to contradict dominant political powerhouses and rhetoric. Archaeological investigations throughout the former transatlantic port...


Potsherds, Paving Stones, and Puppets: Possible Paths for an Anarchist Archaeology (2015)
DOCUMENT Citation Only James Birmingham.

This presentation will explain three possible strains an anarchist archaeology might pursue. While I will briefly explain how my own work in the related field of material culture studies relates to anarchist scholarship, the focus will be on exploring what an anarchist archaeology might look like. In brief one focuses on the far past or perceived "past" and what we may learn from it; the next on more recent resistance and alternative political forms; and the final on the contemporary anarchist...


Pottery and Identity: Elites in Puerto Rico (2013)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Charles Cheek.

Late nineteenth century Puerto Rico was a Spanish colony whose economy depended on export crops like sugar and coffee. The elite were often Spaniards and ties to Spain were close because this helped the elite to maintain their control over the labor force. They imitated Spanish elite cultural behavior such as the promotion of thermal baths for improving health. This paper explores the social and economic context for an elite domestic assemblage from a large landowner household that established...
