ABSTRACT Black fanning communities developed in Ohio from the early 1800’s through the 1870’s. The impetus for the development into Ohio was its free state status and it was a short route to Canada, via the Underground Railroad. Early during this period some farmers owned land as large as 2000 acres. However, these were fragmented through inheritance, sales, and loses to others. Today’s black farmers by and large run small-scale farms of 50 to 140 acres. They have not generally been successful at sustaining farming as a business. This research is based upon the agroecoiogical model that examines relationships among people, the environment, agricultural systems, biological diversity, and traditional knowledge. I collected data from 24 African-American fanners in Ohio by observation, multiple interviews, participant observation, and archival research. These data were transcribed from tape, audio and video, and fieldnotes, and coded to computer compatible data utilizing Nud*st 4.0 software. Qualitative data collection and analysis utilized grounded theory methods, systematic and constant comparative. Structured survey data were analyzed by averages utilizing the standard deviations. Agricultural ways of today’s African American fanners are part of a tradition of ecology-based farming and representative of sustainable farming systems. Resource management decisions appear to emanate from concerns about the local ecology, family, ii Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

In general the data examined herein support the idea that agricultural behavior (tradition, knowledge, adaptations) provides a means to establish a cultural identity for African American farmers within a larger social system of which they are a part. iii Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

  • Consumer Identity and Social Stratification in Hacienda La Esperanza, Manatí, Puerto Rico
    THE MATERIAL CULTURE OF SLAVERY: CONSUMER IDENTITY AND SOCIAL STRATIFICATION IN HACIENDA LA ESPERANZA, MANATÍ, PUERTO RICO A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Nydia I. Pontón-Nigaglioni December 2018 Examining Committee Members: Paul F. Farnsworth, Advisory Chair, Department of Anthropology Anthony J. Ranere, Department of Anthropology Patricia Hansell, Department of Anthropology Theresa A. Singleton, External Member, University of Syracuse, Anthropology © Copyright 2018 by Nydia I. Pontón-Nigaglioni All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT This dissertation focuses on the human experience during enslavement in nineteenth-century Puerto Rico, one of the last three localities to outlaw the institution of slavery in the Americas. It reviews the history of slavery and the plantation economy in the Caribbean and how the different European regimes regulated slavery in the region. It also provides a literature review on archaeological research carried out in plantation contexts throughout the Caribbean and their findings. The case study for this investigation was Hacienda La Esperanza, a nineteenth- century sugar plantation in the municipality of Manatí, on the north coast of the island. The history of the Manatí Region is also presented. La Esperanza housed one of the largest enslaved populations in Puerto Rico as documented by the slave census of 1870 which registered 152 slaves. The examination of the plantation was accomplished through the implementation of an interdisciplinary approach that combined archival research, field archaeology, anthropological interpretations of ‘material culture’, and geochemical analyses (phosphates, magnetic susceptibility, and organic matter content as determined by loss on ignition).

  • Forever Free: Abraham Lincoln's Journey to Emancipation," 2 March Through 15 April 2005
    Introduction How was it that a nation founded on ideals of freedom and equality was also, from its birth, home to slavery? The University Libraries of the University at Buffalo were proud to host the traveling exhibition "Forever Free: Abraham Lincoln's Journey to Emancipation," 2 March through 15 April 2005. By tracing Lincoln 's journey from an anti-slavery moderate to the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation, this exhibit explores the events and ideas which gave birth to the Proclamation, which forever transformed our nation. The Emancipation Proclamation was the death blow to the "peculiar institution." Slavery was finally "That on the first day of January, in the year of our Lord one thousand abolished as an American institution with the ratification of the eight hundred and sixty-three, all persons held as slaves within any State or designated part of a State, the people whereof shall then be in Thirteenth Amendment in December 1865. rebellion against the United States, shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free; and the Executive Government of the United States, Organized by the Huntington Library, San Marino, California, and including the military and naval authority thereof, will recognize and maintain the freedom of such persons, and will do no act or acts to the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History, New York City, repress such persons, or any of them, in any efforts they may make for in cooperation with the American Library Association (ALA), this their actual freedom." traveling exhibit was made possible through a major grant from Emancipation Proclamation, 1 January 1863 the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH).

  • Reframing the Plantation House: Preservation Critique in Southern Literature
    WEBB, CYNTHIA MONTGOMERY, Ph.D. Reframing the Plantation House: Preservation Critique in Southern Literature. (2015) Directed by Dr. Scott Romine. 238 pp. This dissertation contextualizes southern narrative critiques of plantation house preservation through the historic preservation movement, from its precursory development in the 1930s through today. Examining literary representations of plantation houses as historic relics in the contemporary moment, I demonstrate how a range of twentieth- and twenty-first century southern writers critique or challenge its architectural preservation. The southern plantation house has been coded in American popular culture as an exemplar of architectural heritage and a symbol of southern history, both of which beckon its preservation. Various modes of preservation, from nineteenth-century plantation fiction’s reminiscence of family homes and heroes to twenty-first century’s thriving tourism industry, figure the plantation owner’s house in romanticized ways that celebrate its architectural aesthetics, present its history through a narrow register of racial relations, and promote its nostalgic embrace. I argue that against prevailing tendencies toward various uncritical ethos of preservation, William Faulkner, Walker Percy, Alice Randall, Attica Locke, Allan Gurganus, and Godfrey Cheshire reframe the plantation house within complex historical and cultural contexts that counter the developing historic preservation movement’s popular following by illuminating the mythologies undergirding the iconic white-columned architecture and their perpetuation through its preservation. Through an interdisciplinary approach, Reframing the Plantation House combines architectural history, historic preservation, and a significant level of textual literary analysis to reveal counter-narratives that unsettle an assumed historical integrity and cultural significance associated with extant plantation houses.

  • A Brief and True Account of the History of South Carolina Plantation Archaeology and the Archaeologists Who Practice It by Linda F
    South Carolina Antiquities, Vol. 36: 1 and 2 A Brief and True Account of the History of South Carolina Plantation Archaeology and the Archaeologists Who Practice It by Linda F. Stine and Natalie P. Adams A Brief and True Account of the History of South Carolina Plantation Archaeology and the Archaeologists Who Practice It Linda F. Stine and Natalie P. Adams INTRODUCTION This paper’s genesis is the perception that archaeologists’ communal memory of the early days of South Carolina plantation archaeology is fading, incomplete or at times overly judgmental. In order to combat this loss, some of the projects, processes and theoretical orientations that affected South Carolina’s plantation studies are explored. Examples of influential forces are the growth of Cultural Research Management (CRM), burgeoning museum and university programs in historical archaeology, and initially the Tricentennial and Bicentennial. Early references have been searched, including much of the "grey literature" and archaeologists and administrators in academia, government and private industry have been interviewed. Interview topics include early theoretical perspectives and how they relate to field and laboratory methods. Statistical methods have not been used in this study; results are interpretive and qualitative rather than quantitative. Instead, examples have been drawn from the literature of the period to illustrate trends in early South Carolina plantation archaeology. THE FIRST PLANTATION EXCAVATIONS IN SOUTH CAROLINA Although large plantation-related CRM projects began in the late 1970s, initial plantation explorations began in South Carolina a decade earlier. In the 1960s and 1970s interest in funding historical archaeology investigations blossomed due to South Carolina and Charleston's Tricentennial (1970) and the U.S.

  • THE KEYSTONE of PLANTATION WEALTH? CASE STUDIES (Under the Direction of Dr
    ABSTRACT Theresa R. Hicks. WHARVES: THE KEYSTONE OF PLANTATION WEALTH? CASE STUDIES (under the direction of Dr. Lynn Harris) Department of History, April 11, 2012. The Bowling Farm Site (001CSR), a multi-component site comprising Native American and European artifact assemblages, a wharf structure, and a shipwreck, represents a unique clue to early North Carolina history. Located on the Cashie River in Bertie County, this site may be seminal to the history of colonial North Carolina settlement and economy, since little is known about colonial settlement in this area. The primary focus of this thesis is to explore the possibility of a potential correlation between the site’s economic history, wharf construction, and the artifact assemblage by comparing Bowling Farm Site to five other plantation wharf sites located in Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. This thesis also aims to promote the importance of archaeology in understanding site history and formation processes on wharf sites while exploring the most appropriate archaeological methodologies to achieve this objective.
