In 2012, an abandoned well was discovered beneath the porch at the Cyrus Jacobs-Uberuaga House in Boise, Idaho.

The nearly 16,000 artifacts recovered in 2012 shed light on the house’s earliest occupation by the Jacobs family, from 1864-1907. The Jacobs were one of the founding families of Boise and helped shape...

Perceptions of southern California’s San Fernando Valley have long pertained to its relationship to adjacent Los Angeles, with the region over time characterized as either agricultural hinterland or faceless suburbia. Such stereotypes overlook the numerous historical associations and resources of the region, in the process subverting the identities and "communitas" of valley residents. In 2016 courses taught in the Department of Anthropology at California State University-Northridge (CSUN) have...

Of the three basic necessities humans need to survive – food, clothing, and shelter – clothing is often underrepresented archaeologically as fibers do not typically survive due to environmental challenges. Although often under-analyzed, these small commonly-found artifacts are valuable parts of the archaeological record. Through decorative and utilitarian buttons and fasteners, patterns can be identified to address questions regarding daily life during an occupation of a site. Patterns in the...
