Archaeology and Architecture of the Overseas Chinese: a Bibliography ARCHAEOLOGY AND ARCHITECTURE OF THE OVERSEAS CHINESE: A BIBLIOGRAPHY Compiled by Peter D. Schulz and Rebecca Allen Emigration from southeastern China over the last few centuries represents one of the most important population movements of modern history. Deriving primarily from Guangdong and Fujian, emigrants were attracted first to Taiwan, then southeast Asia, North America, and Australasia, as well as many other areas of the globe, where they occupied an amazing variety of social and economic roles. This movement has attracted the attention of Western observers since at least the middle of the 19th century, when overseas Chinese (Huáqiáo) immigrants began arriving in the gold fields of California and Australia, and soon aroused the interest of Western social scientists. Beginning with early descriptive studies (Ratzel 1876), these observers have dealt with a variety of issues, including ethnicity, sojourner status, migrant and industrial labor, middleman minorities and entrepreneurial capitalism. In California alone, Huáqiáo immigrants and their descendents played crucial roles in the development of so many industries that one important early historical study (Chinn et al. 1969) devoted considerable effort describing only the major ones. In the mid-1990s, the SHA published a series of bibliographies that documented archaeological references concerning the immigrant experience in North America. This bibliography is intended to be an extension of that series. It is inevitable that any bibliographic effort involving an active area of research will be immediately out of date. For that reason, we are publishing these references on the SHA website, where readers will have immediate and efficient access, and we can periodically update the information. Our focus is the archaeological record and built environment of overseas Chinese immigrants and communities. We have included published and unpublished reports of investigations of archaeology and architecture. While the vast majority of the references included here deal with sites in the western United States and Australia, similar investigations of Huáqiáo material history have been included regardless of geographical location. In the interest of maintaining specific focus for this bibliography, we have not included obviously relevant studies from China, nor strictly historical investigations of the overseas communities. The bibliography also does not include references to the China Trade, even though some investigations deal with gold-rush-era discoveries in California. Likewise, we have omitted studies from southeastern China of material culture, ceramic production, and architecture. Readers may wish to consult other bibliographies that deal with some of these areas. For comparative purposes, we have included a few relevant archaeological and architectural reports on Japanese immigrant societies. This is a fledgling field of study, and the few references that we have been able to find are included at the end of the bibliographic references, under their own subheading.

  • Yolo County Cannabis Land Use Ordinance Draft Environmental
    Ascent Environmental Cultural Resources 3.5 CULTURAL RESOURCES This section analyzes and evaluates the potential impacts of the project on known and unknown cultural resources as a result of adoption and implementation of the proposed CLUO, including issuance of subsequent Cannabis Use Permits pursuant to the adopted CLUO. Cultural resources include districts, sites, buildings, structures, or objects generally older than 50 years and considered to be important to a culture, subculture, or community for scientific, traditional, religious, or other reasons. They include prehistoric resources, historic-era resources, and tribal cultural resources (the latter as defined by AB 52, Statutes of 2014, in PRC Section 21074). This section also analyzes archaeological, historical, and tribal cultural resources. Paleontological resources are discussed in Section 3.7, “Geology and Soils.” Archaeological resources are locations where human activity has measurably altered the earth or left deposits of prehistoric or historic-era physical remains (e.g., stone tools, bottles, former roads, house foundations). Historical (or architectural or built environment) resources include standing buildings (e.g., houses, barns, outbuildings, cabins), intact structures (e.g., dams, bridges, wells), or other remains of human’s alteration of the environment (e.g., foundation pads, remnants of rock walls). Tribal cultural resources were added as a distinct resource subject to review under CEQA, effective January 1, 2015, under AB 52. Tribal cultural resources are sites, features, places, cultural landscapes, sacred places, and objects with cultural value to a California Native American tribe that are either included or determined to be eligible for inclusion in the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR) or local registers of historical resources.

  • Cultural, Paleontological, and Tribal Cultural Resources
    Chapter 7—Cultural, Paleontological, and Tribal Cultural Resources 7.1 Introduction This chapter describes the existing conditions (environmental and regulatory) and assesses the potential cultural, paleontological, and tribal resources impacts of the 2020 Metropolitan Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (proposed MTP/SCS). Where necessary and feasible, mitigation measures are identified to reduce these impacts. The information presented in this chapter is based on review of existing and available information and is regional in scope. Data, analysis, and findings provided in this chapter were considered and prepared at a programmatic level. For consistency with the 2016 MTP/SCS EIR, paleontological resources are addressed in this chapter even though these resources are grouped with geology and soils in Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines (SACOG 2016). Impacts to unique geologic features are addressed in Chapter 9 – Geology, Soils, Seismicity, and Mineral Resources. Cultural resources include archaeological sites or districts of prehistoric or historic origin, built environment resources older than 50 years (e.g., historic buildings, structures, features, objects, districts, and landscapes), and traditional or ethnographic resources, including tribal cultural resources, which are a separate category of cultural resources under CEQA. Paleontological resources include mineralized, partially mineralized, or unmineralized bones and teeth, soft tissues, shells, wood, leaf impressions, footprints, burrows, and microscopic remains that are more than 5,000 years old and occur mainly in Pleistocene or older sedimentary rock units. In response to the Notice of Preparation (NOP), SACOG received comments related to cultural and tribal cultural resources from the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) and United Auburn Indian Community of the Auburn Rancheria.

Reichardt ABSTRACT Purpose of the Study: Hoping to gain a better life for their families, Chinese men immigrated to California at the start of the Gold Rush in the mid-19th century. Despite prejudice and anti-Chinese legislation, the Chinese of California were a major force in the shaping of the American West by building the transcontinental railroad and using their farming prowess to establish California as one of the major agricultural giants of the United States. Once pushed from these roles, they moved into urban centers, settling into ethnic neighborhoods where they could maintain their cultural identities.

Redesign and Revitalization towaRd a PeoPle-fRiendly Main stReet in downtown woodland, Ca l Emmanuel Villegas Senior Project l l UC Davis LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE June 2010 A SENIOR PROJECT PRESENTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE DEPARTMENT OF LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, DAVIS IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENT FOR THE DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF SCIENCE OF LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE ACCEPTED AND APPROVED BY: Mark Francis, Senior Project Advisor Steve McNiel, Faculty Committee Member, Landscape Architecture Gary A. Sandy, Committee Member, Local Government Relations Richard Coss, Committee Member, Psychology ABSTRACT For years people have been making efforts to restore and preserve many of our historical buildings and landscapes in hopes of preserving these settings for the education future generations. Such restoration provides opportunities for current generations to relive and reenact the ways of life of previous generations. Although we try to incorporate these preserved places into society as historical relicts, many are forgotten. The focus of this document is to delineate the measures needed to reinvigorate downtown Main Street in Woodland, California, a historical relict of one of the wealthiest American towns per capita in the late 19th century. Recommendations focus on an altered Main Street design that enhances productivity by shifting the balance from a car-oriented street to a street that accommodates cars and pedestrians in a viable manner and encourages visitors to spend time enjoying the street environment. Furthermore, this document offers suggestions on making Main Street a more livable and enjoyable place by adding several businesses and activities, promoting solidarity between businesses as well as the street’s historic character to town locals as well as people in neighboring towns.
