Current Research and On Going Projects at the J Richard Steffy Ship Reconstruction Laboratory
Part of: Society for Historical Archaeology 2019
This collection contains the abstracts of the papers presented in the session entitled "Current Research and On Going Projects at the J Richard Steffy Ship Reconstruction Laboratory," at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.
Created by J. Richard Steffy in 1976, the Ship Reconstruction Laboratory has taught several generations of nautical archaeologists the fundamentals of the field and participated in numerous projects over the last four decades. Students still learn the traditional reconstruction methodology, while new technology in computer science allows rendering designs in a 3D perspective. Current and former students continue to work alongside each other around the world on various projects learning advanced skills in the process. Nearing the end of the second decade of the 21st millennium, we wish to showcase the current ongoing research at the Ship Reconstruction Laboratory and where it plans on going in the future.
