More than Pots and Pipes: New Netherland and a World Made by Trade

Part of: Society for Historical Archaeology 2022

This collection contains the abstracts of the papers presented in the session entitled "More than Pots and Pipes: New Netherland and a World Made by Trade," at the 2022 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.

The recent publication of The Archaeology of New Netherland: A World Made by Trade, inspired this panel of papers that builds upon many of the themes introduced in the book, including gender roles, relations with Native Americans, characteristic artifacts associated with the Dutch, and an empire based on mercantilism. More than update of the book, however, the session also explores many new directions of research to document the wide expanse of the seventeenth-century Dutch empire of trade and influence documented archaeologically within and beyond the areas of Dutch settlement in North America. This session combines research drawn from academic scholarship and gray literature compliance projects to glimpse this hybrid culture that extended from modern New York state to the Chesapeake and beyond.
