The historical era of the Caribbean has seen the decline and introduction of various different and opposing cultures. Because of this, the cultural landscape of the Caribbean today is one of the most diverse in the world. However, some of these cultures have been more extensively explored archaeologically than others. A few of the areas of study that have begun to receive more attention in recent years are contact era interaction, indentured labor populations, historical environment and landscape, re-excavation of colonial sites with new discoveries and interpretations, and other aspects of daily life in the colonial Caribbean. This symposium seeks to explore new areas of overlooked peoples, cultures, and activities that have

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} a Southern Woman's Story by Phoebe Yates Pember Phoebe Pember
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} A Southern Woman's Story by Phoebe Yates Pember Phoebe Pember. Phoebe Yates Levy Pember was born on August 18, 1823 to Jewish parents in Charleston, South Carolina. Her father, Jacob Levy, was a successful merchant and because of their wealth and status they socialized with the city’s elite in spite of any anti-Semitism they may have encountered. In 1856, Pember married outside her faith to Thomas Pember of Boston. Their marriage only lasted five years before her husband succumbed to tuberculosis in July 1861. Following her husbands death, Pember moved back in with her parents who fled their new home of Savannah, Georgia for the safety of Marietta, Georgia. However, the time Pember spent at home was not happy as she often quarreled with her father. Thus, in November of 1862, she accepted an offer from her good friend and wife of the Confederate Secretary of War Mary Pope Randolph to serve as chief matron for Chimborazo Hospital in Richmond, Virginia. During Pember’s tenure as matron Chimborazo was one of the largest hospitals in the world; in which its staff treated over 76,000 wounded and ill Confederate soldiers. Although Pember did not practice medicine she was a successful administrator. As chief matron, Pember oversaw the nursing operations in the second of the hospital’s five divisions with limited supervision from a chief medical officer, in which she attended to the dietary needs and the comfort of over 15,000 men. Pember was the first female administrator at Chimborazo and as such faced numerous attempts to undermine her authority.

  • Cultural Resources Remote-Sensing Survey of Halfmoon Reef, Matagorda Bay, Matagorda County, Texas
    CULTURAL RESOURCES REMOTE-SENSING SURVEY OF HALFMOON REEF, MATAGORDA BAY, MATAGORDA COUNTY, TEXAS November 2010 FINAL REPORT By Charles E. Pearson Coastal Environments, Inc. 1260 Main Street Baton Rouge, LA 70802 Texas Archeology Permit Number 5429 Performed under contract with the: Nature Conservancy of Texas Corpus Christi, Texas Coastal Environments, Inc. 1260 Main Street Charles E. Pearson, Ph.D. Baton Rouge, Louisiana Principal Investigator ABSTRACT A Phase 1 marine, cultural resources, remote-sensing survey was conducted of a 1190-acre area located on Halfmoon Reef in Matagorda Bay, Matagorda County, Texas. The study was undertaken by Coastal Environments, Inc., of Corpus Christi, Texas. The area surveyed consists of the majority of Halfmoon Reef, a large sand bank extending into Matagorda Bay. Some portion of Halfmoon Reef is to be selected for a project intended to reestablish oyster beds. The cultural resources survey encompassed several Texas State Tracts identified by the Texas Historical Commission as high probability areas relative to submerged cultural resources. In addition, the area surveyed included the former location of the Halfmoon Reef Lighthouse, which stood from 1858 to 1943. Remote-sensing instruments used consisted of a marine magnetometer, side-scan sonar, and a fathometer. A differential GPS system was used for positioning and navigation. A review of pertinent geological, archeological, and historical records was undertaken prior to the survey to determine the cultural resources potential of the project area. The only cultural features of interest identified in the survey were magnetic anomalies and features identified on side-scan sonar records that appear to represent elements associated with the iron frame foundation of the former Halfmoon Reef Lighthouse.

  • Confederate Women and Narrative Of
    ~Chapter 10 Altars of Sacrifice: Confederate Women and the Narratives of War DREW GILPIN FAUST It is the men, Hector tells Andromache in the sixth book of the Iliad, who "must see to the fighting." From ancient history to our own time, war has centered on men, for they have controlled and populated its battlefields. Even in our era of shifting gender definitions, perhaps the most assertive-and successful--de­ fense of traditional roles has been the effort to bar women from combat. Yet war has often introduced women to unaccustomed responsibilities and unprecedented, even if temporary, enhance­ ments of power. War has been a preeminently "gendering" activ­ ity, casting thought about sex differences into sharp relief as it has both underlined and realigned gender boundaries. I Like every war before and since, the American Civil War served as an occasion for both reassertion and reconsideration of gender assumptions. Early in the conflict, Louisianian Julia Le Grand observed that "we are leading the lives which women have led since Troy fell." Yet because the Civil War was fundamen­ tally different from those that had preceded it, the place of women in that conflict stimulated especially significant examina­ tion and discussion of women's approprif!te relationship to war-and thus to society in general. Often designated the first "modern" or total war because of the involvement of entire pop- 172 Drew Gilpin Faust CONFEDERATE WOMEN AND NARRATIVES OF WAR 173 ulations in its terrible work of death, the Civil War required an "Confederate woman" as a form of false consciousness obscuring extraordinary level of female participation.

Perhaps nowhere was the struggle more complex than in Texas. Some Texans supported the Union, but were concerned about political attacks on Southern institutions. Texas had been part of the United States just 15 years when secessionists prevailed in a statewide election. Texas formally seceded on March 2, 1861 to become the seventh state in the new Confederacy. Gov. Sam Houston was against secession, and strug- gled with loyalties to both his nation and his adopted state. His firm belief in the Union cost him his office when he refused to take an oath of allegianceMarch to the new government.
