Part of: Society for Historical Archaeology 2020
This collection contains the abstracts of the papers presented in the session entitled "Plus Ultra: An examination of current research in Spanish Colonial/Iberian Underwater and Terrestrial Archaeology in the Western Hemisphere.," at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.
Spanish Colonial/Iberian archaeology in the Western Hemisphere continues to grow and adapt as researchers focus their attention on localized behaviors within larger global contexts. This work does not simply concentrate on one particular set of sites or within specific contexts; rather, they examine a variety of research topics including conquest, warfare, and acculturation; missionization and fortifications; bioarchaeology; shipwrecks; economics and core-periphery interaction; material culture; and other esoteric subjects. This symposium’s purpose is to assemble a broad range of researchers currently conducting Spanish Colonial/Iberian archaeology in the New World, highlight their work, and share their latest findings. A variety of research foci spanning the 16th through the 19th centuries will be addressed integrating both underwater and terrestrial contexts throughout North and South America, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Caribbean Sea.
