Abstract Illuminating the Lighthouse Abstract Illuminating the Lighthouse: An Historical and Archaeological Examination of the Causes and Consequences of Economic and Social Change at the Currituck Beach Light Station By Bryan Scott Rose November 2017 Director: Dr. Nathan Richards Department of History, Program in Maritime Studies The purpose of this project was to gather historical and archaeological data to illuminate potential relationships between economic and social investment in lighthouse complexes, and enhance an understanding of the multitude of factors that drive the establishment and development of lighthouse communities. The community surrounding the Currituck Beach Light Station in Corolla, North Carolina served as a case study for this thesis. Historical and archaeological information was gathered from several sources and was assessed for correlation. Analysis discovered that most change occurring at the lighthouse compound and community was due to investment in technological advancement. Most recent changes resulted from resource preservation and tourism investments.

Gemperline, PhD Acknowledgements I am indebted to several individuals for their continued support and assistance throughout the research, writing, and editing process. First, I would like to acknowledge my advisor, Dr. Nathan Richards for always providing the technical assistance, academic guidance, and direction for writing I needed to finish this project. Without his guidance, this project would have not been completed in a timely, efficient and professional manner. I must extend my gratitude to Meghan Agresto, the Site Manager of the Currituck Beach Light Station. Many of the historical sources were previously gathered by her and housed in the electronic collection on site. Unfettered access was granted to the site whenever it was requested. I would also like to thank her for allowing me to speak on the topic on occasion. Without her assistance, this thesis would be much less historically accurate. I would like to thank Marlena Barber for her patience, emotional support, and editorial acumen. Her valuable support helped me through the inherant hope, frustrations, worry, procrastination, and finally excitement involved in writing a Master’s Thesis. Without her aid this endeavor would not have been successful. I appreciate the assistance from several other individuals and organizations that were integral to this research. The Outer Banks Historic Center in Manteo, NC provided many sources necessary for an accurate historical narrative. The UNC Coastal Studies Institute in Manteo, NC provided equipment and space to work during post processing. John McCord flew the drone for photographic capture of the site. Nathan Richards, Ryan Bradley, Jim Kinsella, and Adam Parker provided assistance during fieldwork and during the editorial process. Jackie Cameron, Melissa Price, Jeremy Borrelli, and Lauren Christian also aided in the editorial process. I would also like to thank the other members of my committee for their input and support during this process: Dr. Lynn Harris, Dr. Jennifer McKinnon, and Dr. Thad Wasklewicz. Finally, I would like to thank my parents for their investment in my abilities throughout the years: financial assistance during hard times, engineering and craftsmanship from Dad, and artistry and effective communication from Mom. Y’all are the best!

  • A Study of the Chicamacomico Races Battlescape (1-5 October 1861)
    DETECTING ARCHAEOLOGICAL SIGNATURES IN SHALLOW WATER: A STUDY OF THE CHICAMACOMICO RACES BATTLESCAPE (1-5 OCTOBER 1861) By: James Michael Kinsella IV November 2018 Director of Thesis: Dr. Nathan Richards Department of History - Program in Maritime Studies After the Confederate surrender at Forts Hatteras and Clark in August of 1861, the Union took control of Pamlico Sound. Confederate soldiers, however, remained in control of an outpost on nearby Roanoke Island. This was their last line of defense against Union dominance of eastern North Carolina. In September 1861, Union forces set up an outpost at Chicamacomico (present-day Rodanthe on Hatteras Island). Once the Confederates discerned the Union’s presence at Chicamacomico, they launched an attack to retake Pamlico Sound. Both Union and Confederate forces engaged each other on land and at sea. There were few casualties and the balance of power did not shift between the two sides. The “Chicamacomico Encounter” (also known as the “Chicamacomico Affair,” and “Chicamacomico Races”) has been documented in the historical record; however there has not been extensive archaeological study of the battlefield. This may be because it represents a challenge to battlefield archaeologists. The area of conflict is not only inundated with sand and vegetation, but it has also gone through drastic coastal change. Moreover, its marine battlescape is potentially expansive, and lies within exceptionally shallow water -- requiring the adaptation and combination of terrestrial and underwater archaeological surveying techniques to study it. The present study is an archaeological analysis of the battlescape which utilized the principles of KOCOA survey techniques from the American Battlefield Protection Program (ABPP) to reconstruct battlefield behavior, analyze tactics and strategy, and in doing so considered the pros and cons of various surveying and remote sensing methodologies.
