"So, What Does That Buff Colored Paste Tell You?" The Challenges And Solutions To Finding The Early Colonial Sites In The Delaware Bay Area.
Author(s): Craig Lukezic
Year: 2020
Summary
This is an abstract from the session entitled "“Talkin’ ‘Bout a Revolution”: Identifying and Understanding Early Historic-Period House Sites" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.
Unlike the Chesapeake Bay region, many of the early colonial sites in the Delaware Bay area have been over printed by industrial activities, and urbanism of the 19th century. Combined with the light footprints left by the Swedes, Finns, Dutch, English, Welsh, Natives and Africans of the 17th century, scant evidence survives on the ground from this period. This presentation will review the problems, and describes the collective measures the archaeological community in Delaware has made to recover this period of our heritage.
