I must also thank Jerry Lee, senior archaeologist at Mission San Luis. Not only did he allow me into his lab and grant me access to the materials, his oversight of my analysis has made me a more knowledgeable archaeologist of Spanish-mission era and Apalachee Indian materials. To Michelle Gray, fellow FSU anthropology graduate student, whose access to and knowledge of ArcGIS allowed me to produce the artifact distribution maps in Chapter 4. To my wife Sara, who shared late nights and long weekend hours, anniversary getaways, vacation and poolside reading time, all by my side as we completed our post-graduate education together. To my kids who always give me a reason to be a good role model. And to my parents who waited a long time to see me get my college degree. Without the support of all of these people, none of this would have been possible. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS List of Tables ...................................................................................................................................v List of Figures ................................................................................................................................ vi Abstract .......................................................................................................................................... ix 1.

    Metro Cityring – Kongens Nytorv KBM 3829, Excavation Report 16 Phase 4d Late medieval and Renaissance fortification 1350–1600 AD 16.1 Results The presentation of the remains from Phase 4d will be given from two perspectives. Firstly there will be an account of the different feature types – part of a bulwark and the Late medieval moat (Fig. 140 and Tab. 37). After the overall description the features are placed in a structural and historical context. This time phase could have been presented together with either the eastern gate building and/or the Late medieval city wall, but is separated in the report due to the results and dates, interpretations and the general discussion on the changes that have been made on the overall fortification over time. This also goes for the backfilling and levelling of the Late medieval moat which actually should be placed under time Phase 6 (Post medieval fortification and other early 17th century activities), but are presented here due to the difficulties in distinguishing some of these deposits from the usage layers and the fact that these layers are necessary for the discussion about the moat’s final destruction, etc. Museum of Copenhagen 2017 248 Metro Cityring – Kongens Nytorv KBM 3829, Excavation Report Fig. 140.

  • Searching for Viking Age Fortresses with Automatic Landscape Classification and Feature Detection
    remote sensing Article Searching for Viking Age Fortresses with Automatic Landscape Classification and Feature Detection David Stott 1,2, Søren Munch Kristiansen 2,3,* and Søren Michael Sindbæk 3 1 Department of Archaeological Science and Conservation, Moesgaard Museum, Moesgård Allé 20, 8270 Højbjerg, Denmark 2 Department of Geoscience, Aarhus University, Høegh-Guldbergs Gade 2, 8000 Aarhus C, Denmark 3 Center for Urban Network Evolutions (UrbNet), Aarhus University, Moesgård Allé 20, 8270 Højbjerg, Denmark * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +45-2338-2424 Received: 19 June 2019; Accepted: 25 July 2019; Published: 12 August 2019 Abstract: Across the world, cultural heritage is eradicated at an unprecedented rate by development, agriculture, and natural erosion. Remote sensing using airborne and satellite sensors is an essential tool for rapidly investigating human traces over large surfaces of our planet, but even large monumental structures may be visible as only faint indications on the surface. In this paper, we demonstrate the utility of a machine learning approach using airborne laser scanning data to address a “needle-in-a-haystack” problem, which involves the search for remnants of Viking ring fortresses throughout Denmark. First ring detection was applied using the Hough circle transformations and template matching, which detected 202,048 circular features in Denmark. This was reduced to 199 candidate sites by using their geometric properties and the application of machine learning techniques to classify the cultural and topographic context of the features. Two of these near perfectly circular features are convincing candidates for Viking Age fortresses, and two are candidates for either glacial landscape features or simple meteor craters.

  • Fortification Renaissance: the Roman Origins of the Trace Italienne
    FORTIFICATION RENAISSANCE: THE ROMAN ORIGINS OF THE TRACE ITALIENNE Robert T. Vigus Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2013 APPROVED: Guy Chet, Committee Co-Chair Christopher Fuhrmann, Committee Co-Chair Walter Roberts, Committee Member Richard B. McCaslin, Chair of the Department of History Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Vigus, Robert T. Fortification Renaissance: The Roman Origins of the Trace Italienne. Master of Arts (History), May 2013, pp.71, 35 illustrations, bibliography, 67 titles. The Military Revolution thesis posited by Michael Roberts and expanded upon by Geoffrey Parker places the trace italienne style of fortification of the early modern period as something that is a novel creation, borne out of the minds of Renaissance geniuses. Research shows, however, that the key component of the trace italienne, the angled bastion, has its roots in Greek and Roman writing, and in extant constructions by Roman and Byzantine engineers. The angled bastion of the trace italienne was yet another aspect of the resurgent Greek and Roman culture characteristic of the Renaissance along with the traditions of medicine, mathematics, and science. The writings of the ancients were bolstered by physical examples located in important trading and pilgrimage routes. Furthermore, the geometric layout of the trace italienne stems from Ottoman fortifications that preceded it by at least two hundred years. The Renaissance geniuses combined ancient bastion designs with eastern geometry to match a burgeoning threat in the rising power of the siege cannon. Copyright 2013 by Robert T. Vigus ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis would not have been possible without the assistance and encouragement of many people.

    Trade & Travel in the Apalachee Province A Lesson Plan for Grade Levels 1 & 2 Mission San Luis Education Department 2100 West Tennessee Street Tallahassee, FL 32304 www.missionsanluis.org [email protected] ©Mission San Luis Education Department Trade & Travel in the Apalachee Province A Lesson Plan for Grade Levels 1 & 2 OVERVIEW This lesson will focus on Florida’s Spanish and Apalachee heritage, emphasizes the story of early Spanish exploration, and touches on Florida’s current demography. This activity increases student’s awareness of Florida’s early Spanish exploration, cartography, and geography. GOALS 9 The students will be introduced to the naval routes of early Spanish explorers. 9 The student will understand the significance of consequences of early European exploration. 9 The student will become aware that their community has important historical roots. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND lorida’s documented material history of native people dates back more than 12,000 years. In 1513, a new era in Florida history began with the arrival of Juan Ponce de Léon. His convoy of Fexplorers was the first group of Europeans to document such a landing and gave a name to Florida – La Florida. Soon, Spain, England, Portugal, and France were all attempting to set up colonies in the New World in order to create great empires. The legacy of Spanish Florida was further established by Pedro Menéndez when he founded St. Augustine, the oldest continuously inhabited settlement in North America. During the 1600s, called “The Mission Period,” Franciscan friars led Spanish expansion outward from St. Augustine and created more than 100 mission settlements across Florida.

    Created and produced by the Museum of Florida History 500 South Bronough Street Tallahassee, Florida 32399-0250 For information: 850-245-6400 ~ museumoffloridahistory.com 2020 Artie the Alligator Looks for a Moat Written and illustrated by Lydia Malone, Museum Educator Artie the alligator and his seven brothers and sisters loved story time with Mama. Mama told them stories about giant fish in the ocean, bobbing boats sailing on the sea . and far away castles made of stone. Some castles had rings of water around them called moats. And, sometimes, castles had their very own fire-breathing dragon. Excited, Artie quickly swam across the pond to tell his friend Terry the turtle all about castles and dragons. He swam away so fast, Mama did not get a chance to tell Artie that dragons were imaginary creatures. Artie wanted to visit a castle to swim in the moat and look for a dragon! So off he went on his next adventure. Artie swam up the river, keeping his eyes open for a castle. After a while, he spotted some very tall, round shapes. Could this be a castle? Artie tried to get a better look at the castle with red stones and high walls, but there were trees and bushes surrounding it. No water for a moat, he thought. So he continued on his way. Next, Artie saw a tall, spiky tower in the middle of a small lake. Artie swam toward the tower eagerly. This looked like a castle and moat to him! Artie waited and waited for a dragon to appear.
