This is an abstract from the session entitled "Critical Archaeologies of Whiteness", at the 2024 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The archaeological archive is a largely untapped resource related to the role that race and White supremacy played in the production of archaeological knowledge and methods. As I suggest in this paper, archaeological methods and thought were deeply, even if unconsciously, influenced by plantation logic. Specifically, race determined who...

  The Cattewater Wreck was the first wreck to be protected by the UK Government and was partially excavated in the 1970s. The Tudor wreck is believed to be an unidentified armed merchantman. The Cattewater Wreck Archive Project, funded by English Heritage, recently improved the long term care and management of the archive held in Plymouth City Museum. Modern tools and techniques have been applied to the archive, such as stable isotope analysis of fish remains, allowing new interpretations to be...

The Department of Defense, as a federal landholding agency, is responsible for the management of archaeological and historical resources recovered from lands under its management. As mandated by federal laws, agencies are required to ensure that all archaeological materials and associated records are properly curated to the standards specified in 36 CFR Part 79. In the 1990s, the Department of Defense initiated a national curation program to determine the size, location, and condition of its...

H.B. Nicholson was considered the Tlamatini of Aztec studies. He was also known as a warm and generous professor who dedicated his life to the study of Mesoamerican cultures. His legacy is highlighted by his remarkable collection of articles, books, photographs, and slides acquired over more than five decades. After his death in 2007, Nicholson’s family donated his entire private collection of books, articles, slides, and photographs to the University of California, Los Angeles. Five years ago,...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Archaeology of Urban Dissonance: Violence, Friction, and Change" , at the 2021 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The second decade of the 20th century saw a Great Migration of African Americans to cities like Chicago. The city’s existing African American community expressed concern for the welfare of “our girls” in a strange, potentially dangerous, new place, and worked to ease their transition to a new way of life. This...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Paper / Report Submission (General Sessions)" , at the 2022 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Ordinary ships such as merchant schooners—and most importantly the people involved in their lives—are often missing entirely from discussions and narratives of the 19th century. Their absence is a problem. Not just because it reveals an incompleteness in the record or a focus on specific tiers of society, which it does. But...

This is an abstract from the "Working on the 19th-Century" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. The small port town of New Richmond, Ohio has a rich but neglected history ‒ it was once home to a pioneering family and their progressive academy. The Parker Academy, founded in 1839, was inspired by a vision that moved people beyond racial segregation and promoted unity during a time of extreme division. This school is perhaps one of the first integrated...

The entirety of the archive was inundated with flood water. Learn about the disaster recovery methods used and lessons learned from this catastrophic...

One of the most important, yet often neglected, components of any archaeological project is what happens outside of the field—processing the data. Without meticulously organizing and archiving the data we collect, these fast accumulating pieces of information become no more useful than a pile of papers pushed to the corners of our desks. Worse yet, irreplaceable data could be lost. Shumla Archaeological Research and Education Center is taking measures to avoid this pitfall by developing methods...

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Paper / Report Submission (General Sessions)", at the 2024 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. 3D documentation tools and methods are becoming commonplace in nautical and underwater archaeology, but the means to visualize, preserve, share, publish, and re-use the resultant models and underlying raw datasets are often inaccessible. The OpenHeritage3D platform has built a scholarly framework for the use and re-use of full...
