In his 1991 classic, Fantastic Archaeology: The Wild Side of North American Archaeology, Stephen Williams set out to document the ways in which fraud has masqueraded as truth in North American prehistory. More than just a catalog of the improbable and unfalsifiable, Fantastic Archaeology also served as gateway to scientific archaeology for many in the general public. Smitten with a "weird tale," many in the Cambridge, MA area found their way to Prof. Williams’ Harvard University course upon...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Xinyi Xie.

This is an abstract from the "Behind the Scenes and on the Stage: The Women Who Shaped Archaeology" session, at the 90th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Museums perform as a window that exhibits the archaeological materials from the past to the public, and are often considered as neutral ‘authorities’ showing the ‘truth’. However, recent research doubts the authority of museums, arguing that the materials are interpreted and represented subjectively and selectively....

This is an abstract from the "Behind the Scenes and on the Stage: The Women Who Shaped Archaeology" session, at the 90th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The visibility of female’s efforts to the development of Ecuadorian archaeology is still in progress. Therefore, we begin our conversation with an evaluation of the contributions of female archaeologists working within the domain of bio-archaeology, an arena practiced by mostly women. However, their voices are still...

This is an abstract from the "City and Country in the American West:Post-1848 Historical Archaeologies of Denver and Los Angeles" session, at the 90th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. A remarkably small amount of historical archaeological research and excavation has been conducted within the City of Denver. This is due to what can best be summarized as a lack of interest in the historical origins of Denver and lack of community desire to preserve remnants of that...

The roots of Inca archaeology lie in reports and memoirs of 19th century travel, which culminated in Hiram Bingham’s 1911 Yale Peruvian Expedition. These accounts traced routes that brought international attention to architectural remains of Inca royal estates and religious monuments, providing an early "guide" to would-be travelers and framing the formative years of Inca archaeology. As research proliferated in the past 50 years, some archaeologists have promoted the remains of royal estates as...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Corey Bowen.

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2025: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 90th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Combating pseudoarchaeology in popular discourse requires not only analyzing the rhetoric of its most vocal proponents, but understanding the misconceptions that predispose audiences to listen. Social media may permit a glimpse at those misconceptions in ways that classroom settings and traditional surveys cannot. With four million unique monthly users,...

One of the most popular genres of late-Victorian literature was the Bible Customs book. Often written by missionaries who had lived in Palestine for years, these books were intended to help illuminate the Bible based on observations of the flora, fauna, topography, and especially of the people living in the land in the 19th century. Organized according to subject or by Biblical verse, these books presupposed a connection between the people of Biblical times and 19th-century Palestine. In these...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Jimena Blasco.

This is an abstract from the "Behind the Scenes and on the Stage: The Women Who Shaped Archaeology" session, at the 90th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Since the first historicizations of archaeology in Uruguay, the ‘pioneers’ or ‘fathers of national archaeology’ have been at the center of the story. Without detracting from their merit, their work was sustained and supported by the work of many women who, in addition to carrying out fieldwork, were especially...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Margaret Conkey.

This is an abstract from the "From Middens to Museums: Papers in Honor of Julie K. Stein" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In the scholarly contributions of Julie Stein, her key paper on the impact of worms on archaeological sites is among several that have been foundational to not just geoarchaeology but to those of us dealing with the bioturbation of archaeological sites. In this, she is a direct descendant of Charles Darwin. From this, and...

This is an abstract from the "Behind the Scenes and on the Stage: The Women Who Shaped Archaeology" session, at the 90th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. West Virginia was one of the first states to hire a “state archaeologist” in 1960. Soon after the need for another staff archaeologist was recognized and a woman, Bettye Broyles, was hired in 1963. Bettye spent over a decade excavating pre-contact and historic sites in West Virginia. Her work is evident in the dozens...

In summer of 2016, the authors investigated two northern Wisconsin sites with long legacies of regional recognition as key seventeenth-century interaction locales among Native American communities and French explorers, missionaries, and traders. These historic locations, known as the Fish Creek Village and Shore’s Landing Trading Post, are significant to descendant communities, including local Ojibwe peoples and Wendat diaspora groups. In addition, the locations are some of the first...

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. The study of correspondence, field notes, catalogs and other archival documents has contributed important information to understand the history of some of the first Maya archaeological collections in the United States and Europe. The field and lab work developed by pioneering explorers and researchers, such as Hermann Berendt (1817-1878) and Charles Rau...

This is an abstract from the "Behind the Scenes and on the Stage: The Women Who Shaped Archaeology" session, at the 90th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. In the past five years, the history of women in Spanish archaeology has been explored through two projects: ArqueólogAs (2020-2024) and Herstory (2024-2028). The Herstory project aims to provide a global, comparative, and diachronic perspective on women’s roles and contributions in Spanish archaeology. A key method...
