Both sponsored research and review work have resulted in the gradual accumulation of a large number of unpublished manuscripts and limited-circulation reports, now on file with the division's Archaeology Branch. Additional archaeological reports such as dissertations and theses have been added from time to time to aid in state-supported surveys, excavations, and reviews.

Book Synopsis Archaeology in South Carolina by : Adam King
Download or read book Archaeology in South Carolina written by Adam King and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2016-04-26 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rich human history of South Carolina from its earliest days to the present Adam King's Archaeology in South Carolina contains an overview of the fascinating archaeological research currently ongoing in the Palmetto state featuring essays by twenty scholars studying South Carolina's past through archaeological research. The scholarly contributions are enhanced by more than one hundred black and white and thirty-eight color images of some of the most important and interesting sites and artifacts found in the state. South Carolina has an extraordinarily rich history encompassing the first human habitation of North America to the lives of people at the dawn of the modern era. King begins the anthology with the basic hows and whys of archeology and introduces readers to the current issues influencing the field of research. The contributors are all recognized experts from universities, state agencies, and private consulting firms, reflecting the diversity of people and institutions that engage in archaeology. The volume begins with investigations of some of the earliest Paleo-Indian and Native American cultures that thrived in South Carolina, including work at the Topper Site along the Savannah River. Other essays explore the creation of early communities at the Stallings Island site, the emergence of large and complex Native American polities before the coming of Europeans,the impact of the coming of European settlers on Native American groups along the Savannah River, and the archaeology of the Yamassee, apeople whose history is tightly bound to the emerging European society. The focus then shifts to Euro-Americans with an examination of a long-term project seeking to understand George Galphin's trading post established on the Savannah River in the eighteenth century. A discussion of Middleburg Plantation, one of the oldest plantation houses in the South Carolina lowcountry, is followed by a fascinating glimpse into how the city of Charleston and the lives of its inhabitants changed during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Essays on underwater archaeological research cover several Civil War-era vessels located in Winyah Bay near Georgetown and Station Creek near Beaufort, as well as one of the most famous Civil War naval vessels—the H.L. Hunley. The volume concludes with the recollections of a life spent in the field by South Carolina's preeminent historical archaeologist Stanley South, now retired from the South Carolina Institute of Archaeology and Anthropology at the University of South Carolina.
Book Synopsis Time before History by : H. Trawick Ward
Download or read book Time before History written by H. Trawick Ward and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2018-06-15 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: North Carolina's written history begins in the sixteenth century with the voyages of Sir Walter Raleigh and the founding of the ill-fated Lost Colony on Roanoke Island. But there is a deeper, unwritten past that predates the state's recorded history. The region we now know as North Carolina was settled more than 10,000 years ago, but because early inhabitants left no written record, their story must be painstakingly reconstructed from the fragmentary and fragile archaeological record they left behind. Time before History is the first comprehensive account of the archaeology of North Carolina. Weaving together a wealth of information gleaned from archaeological excavations and surveys carried out across the state--from the mountains to the coast--it presents a fascinating, readable narrative of the state's native past across a vast sweep of time, from the Paleo-Indian period, when the first immigrants to North America crossed a land bridge that spanned the Bering Strait, through the arrival of European traders and settlers in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.
Book Synopsis History, Historical Archaeology, and Cultural Resource Management by : Angus Caldwell Sawyer
Download or read book History, Historical Archaeology, and Cultural Resource Management written by Angus Caldwell Sawyer and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author's abstract: Virgil Noble (1996) has noted a deficiency in historical archaeological research within the sphere of cultural resource management, attributable to inadequacies within regulatory agencies, resulting in trite methodological exercises. This thesis demonstrates that another problem can be found in the basic methodology of historical archaeology as translated into practice in compliance archaeology. A review of a data recovery project in Jasper County, South Carolina shows that the necessary relationship between the documentary and archaeological particulars, that are not well codified in the standards for archaeological investigations, led to the creation of a program of study that would likely lead to a flat minimalist study. As such, a more thorough understanding of a sites history and context is needed in order to structure a research design prior to field investigations, subsequent analyses, and interpretations to produce more relevant and meaningful studies.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Addendum I: A Guide to Research Papers in the Archaeology of North Carolina on File With the Archaeology Branch of the North Carolina Division of Archives and History In 1980 the North Carolina Archaeological Council published a bibliography of archaeological papers on file with one of its member institutions. Appearing as Publication 13 in the Council Series, A guide to research papers in the archaeology of North Carolina on file with the Archaeology Branch of the North Carolina Division of Archives and History provided a list of 661 works to those involved with archaeological research or resource management. Most of these works, which cover archaeological projects throughout the state, were unpublished. Since the publication of that bibliography, the Archaeology Branch's file of dissertations, theses, articles, and contract reports on archaeology has grown. In addition, many of the major sources of published archaeological works in North Carolina have been indexed for use in environmental review at the branch. As a result, the number of additional references has led to the compilation of a second bibliography. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Addendum IV, Vol. 23: A Guide to Research Papers in the Archaeology of North Carolina on File With the Archaeology Branch of the North Carolina Division of Archives and History In 1980 the North Carolina Archaeological Council published the first in a series of bibliographies on the archaeology of North Carolina. Appearing as Publication 13 in the Council Series, A guide to research papers in the archaeology of North Carolina on file with the Archaeology Branch of the North Carolina Division of Archives and History contained 661 titles of papers, articles and reports. Most of these works, which cover archaeological projects throughout the state, were unpublished. In 1981 and 1982, the bibliographic series was updated with Addenda I and II, Publications 14 and 17, respectively. Addendum III followed with 230 entries in 1984 as Publication 21. Since the publication of those bibliographies, the Branch's collection of master's theses, articles and research and contract reports has continued to grow, prompting the compilation of the fifth bibliography, Publication 23. Addendum IV represents the receipt, through the cut - off date of March 31, 1985, of 240 titles by 82 authors. As in the preceding bibliographies, the works listed represent a wide variety of research topics, techniques, purposes and formats. The geographical focus varies from surveys of one-acre tracts to overviews of several counties. Papers 'missed' by earlier bibliographies, or received long after their completion have been included if they came in during the accumulation time for this addendum. In each citation we have included the name and address of the individual, institution or agency that performed the work described in the report after manuscript on file. This referencing format supplies the researcher with the information needed to contact the individuals or institutions retaining not only the manuscript cited, but also (presumably) the notes, photographs and artifacts generated by the project in question. Specific inquiries and requests for copies should be addressed to these individuals or institutions. Addresses of most of the contributors have been abbreviated in the citations; a full list of contributors' addresses appears in the appendix.

Book Synopsis Beyond the Walls by : Kevin R. Fogle
Download or read book Beyond the Walls written by Kevin R. Fogle and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2019-03-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Thought-provoking and engaging, Beyond the Walls provides new and relevant theoretical perspectives and specific case studies for archaeologists conducting research related to household archaeology. Essential for both students and professionals.”—Mark D. Groover, author of The Archaeology of North American Farmsteads “From ranching stations in Hawai’i to slave quarters in South Carolina, the essays in Beyond the Walls crosscut time and space to consider the interrelationships between households and the wider regional and global networks in which their residents were enmeshed, presenting new insights relating to identity, consumerism, and modernity.”—Barbara J. Heath, coeditor of Jefferson’s Poplar Forest: Unearthing a Virginia Plantation While household archaeologists view the home as a social unit, few move their investigations “beyond the walls” when contextualizing a household in its community. Even exterior aspects of a dwelling—its plant life, yard spaces, and trash heaps—uncover issues of domination and resistance, gender relations, and the effects of colonialism. This innovative volume examines historical homes and their wider landscapes to more fully address social issues of the past. The contributors, leading archaeologists using various interpretive frameworks, analyze households across time periods and diverse cultures in North America. Including case studies of James Madison’s Montpelier, George Washington’s Ferry Farm, Chinese immigrants in a Nevada mining town and Southern plantations, Beyond the Walls offers a new avenue for archaeological study of domestic sites.
