A Diachronic Perspective on Colonoware from the J. Joyner Smith Plantation

Author(s): Karen Smith; Brandy Joy

Year: 2016

Summary

Recent work on SC DNR’s Fort Frederick Heritage Preserve, once part of the J. Joyner Smith Plantation in Beaufort County, South Carolina, offers an opportunity to study changes in ceramic consumption through time. Utilizing archaeological samples from several distinct occupations on this Sea Island cotton plantation, we chart changes in colonoware abundance, in particular, and relate them to larger socio-economic changes taking place across the region during the early 19th c. In addition to using DAACS data in our comparative analyses, we draw on a constellation of thoughtful archaeological research on slave settlements in Beaufort County.
