All the Small Things: Small Finds from the Home Farm Complex

Summary

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Paper / Report Submission (General Sessions)", at the 2024 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.

Small finds from archaeological sites can share a large amount of information about the behavior, consumption patterns, and identity of individuals connected to the site. Recent excavations at James Madison’s Montpelier have centered around the Home Farm Complex. This paper intends to analyze small finds from within the Home Farm Complex, particularly the Field Quarters and the Overseer’s House, through multiple lenses such as social deviance, conformity, individual expression, and leisure.
