Archaeochemical Detective Work (2024)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Paper / Report Submission (General Sessions)", at the 2024 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. A familiar scenario in historical archaeology involves the identification of artifacts from minute quantities of associated materials that a first glance appear to be evidence poor. The artifact may be a scrap of fabric, or a generic glass bottle with a stain on the inside surface. Its identification likely depends on a judicious...
Archaeological Remote Sensing Survey of Operation Neptune: The D-Day Landings at Omaha and Utah Beaches, Normandy, France (Legacy 01-131)
This report discusses a 3-year remote sensing survey off the Normandy coast to obtain additional information on U.S. naval losses during Operation Neptune.

Artifacts From The Chinese Quarter Of Jacksonville, OR – The Chemical Story (2016)
Analytical chemistry is a valuable tool in the identification of historical artifacts for which visual inspection is inconclusive. This is often the case with bottles and jars holding unknown materials, especially when the containers themselves provide little or no evidence. Several of the artifacts recovered from the historical Chinese Quarter of Jacksonville, OR, were of this type. They included a variety of medicine bottles and vials with contents that could only be identified through...

The Creation of an In-House, Interactive, Bottle Identification Guide for Students (2017)
During the 2015-2016 school-year, the Lindenwood University Archaeology Laboratory undertook an extensive examination of bottles that had been recovered from our campus excavation project and a donated collection. The data were compiled into a spreadsheet that included manufacturer, date range of production, place of manufacture, and contents of the bottle when discernable. In order to assist future lab workers with the identification of common bottle types and their makers in the Midwest,...

Far From Home: A Proposed Identification of the Winks Wreck, Kitty Hawk, N.C. as the Bristol-Built Steamship Mountaineer (2018)
The Winks Wreck, located a short distance offshore of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, represents a unique facet of the underwater cultural heritage of the Outer Banks. Consisting primarily of two side-lever steam engines — typical of early British rather than American-built steamships — the site is unlike most others found in the region. The identification of the site as the wreck of Mountaineer, built in Bristol in 1835, was first suggested by local diver and researcher Marc Corbett in 2012. Diver...
H.L. Hunley Project: 2004 Archaeological Findings and Progress Report (Legacy 04-106)
This project focused on the ongoing forensic research of the vessel's crew, interment of the remains, completion of the excavation of the submarine's interior, and the documentation of artifacts recovered during the excavation. The objective of the year's work was to gather data sufficient to answer critical questions about the H.L. Hunley crewmen and what happened to them and their vessel.
H.L. Hunley Project: 2004 Archaeological Findings and Progress Report - Report (Legacy 04-106) (2005)
This report discusses the foci of the project in 2004: the ongoing forensic research of the vessel's crew, interment of the remains, completion of the excavation of the submarine's interior, and the documentation of artifacts recovered during the excavation. The objective of the year's work was to gather data sufficient to answer critical questions about the H.L. Hunley crewmen and what happened to them and their vessel.
Identifying and Siding the Stylohyoid Bone for North American Artiodactyls (2017)
The stylohyoid is the largest bone in the hyoid complex surrounding the throat in artiodactyls. There is little published information to allow its identification to species or anatomical side. Our study examined comparative stylohoid bones in order to provide criteria for taxonomic identification, using more than 350 animals representing 13 species present in the continental United States. Based on osteometrics and discrete features, the bone can be distinguished to species for most of these...

Nasty Stuff In Historical Archaeology (2019)
This is an abstract from the "Meaning in Material Culture" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. As it is the purpose of historical archaeology to unearth the unknown, there can be unpleasant surprises. Books have been written on the lurking dangers of artifacts, especially in regard to biological contagion. Chemical toxicity may also rear its ugly head, especially in laboratories like ours, where we focus on the chemical identification of historical...

Proteomics for Silks: Identify and Distinguish B. mori and Other Species (2017)
Silk fibre generally known is made from a species called Bombyx mori, which was domesticated about 2,000 years ago in China. This is reared by human and the process is called sericulture. However there are other wild silk species that are not domesticated but still used in textile making. In an archaeological context, the proof of sericulture could be an index of the cultural and technological development of a location: it implies that there was a developed economy to import or produce silk—and...
