*SE New Orleans and Its Environs: Historical Archaeology and Environmental Precarity
Part of: Society for American Archaeology 89th Annual Meeting, New Orleans, LA (2024)
This collection contains the abstracts of the papers presented in the session entitled "*SE New Orleans and Its Environs: Historical Archaeology and Environmental Precarity" at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.
Since New Orleans celebrated its tricentennial in 2018, archaeological research has continued in and around the city at a rapid pace, much of it triggered by federal involvement in construction and infrastructure projects. This session brings together a diverse collection of recent work on historical archaeology in southeastern Louisiana, where environmental precarity and a shared history of extractive economies, from the plantation to the petrochemical, links urban and rural landscapes.
