DOCUMENT Citation Only Ann Polk. Michael Polk.

This is a poster submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Following the completion of the Transcontinental Railroad in 1869, there was an immediate need to provide maintenance crews along the line.

Abalone Shell, Broken Pots, Hearths, Windbreaks and Archival Research: Clues to Identifying 19th Century California Abalone Colection and Processing Sites on the Channel Islands (2013)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Judy Berryman.

The Chinese abalone and fisheries in California developed in the late 1850s, flourished, and then delcined in the early 1900s. The majority of California Chinese studies have focused on immigrant populations in established urban Chinatowns. Much less attention has been given to economic strategies and survival mechanisms associated with rural communities, specialized labor camps, or fishing camps. Many of these industries were first developed in the West by Chinese immigrants only to be taken...

Like other western American railroad towns, Sandpoint, Idaho, saw an influx of thousands of Chinese workers during railroad construction in the twilight of the 1800s. Most workers moved on as construction of the railroad continued down the line. Examination of a Chinese laundry excavation provides an interesting snapshot of the lives those workers who stayed and made Sandpoint their home. This business was also a residence and the collection provides an opportunity to study both the private and...

DOCUMENT Citation Only Molly Boeka Cannon. Jon Stein. Nick Lammay. J. Daniel Murphy. Kenneth P Cannon.

This is a poster submission presented at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.

Much of the archaeological assemblage from railroad and mining...
