For this year’s event, thirteen sponsors supported twenty-eight student presenters by paying their registration and dues ($65 for each sponsorship). The number of sponsored students is indicated in parentheses after the sponsor’s name: Archaeological Services (Roger Moeller) (1) Archaeological Society of Maryland (2) Archaeological Society of New Jersey (2) Archaeological Society of Virginia (2) Archaeological Society of Virginia, Massanutten Chapter (1) Michael Barber (2) Claude Bowen (3) Council of Virginia Archaeologists (10) Dead Guy Books (Mike Madden) (1) Laura Galke (1) Bernard Means (1) Carole Nash (1) Richard Veit (1) MAAC has a reputation as a ‘student-friendly’ conference, and student sponsorship is a further extension of this ethic. By helping remove the economic burden of fees from undergraduate and graduate students, sponsorship encourages the next generation of MAAC archaeologists to become involved in the organization. The sponsorship program also provides an initial point of contact between students, archaeological organizations, and CRM firms. Our original goal was to offer sponsorships to all students presenting in the student paper competitions, and thanks to the interest in the program, we have achieved since the outset. Additional sponsorships are given to randomly selected students who are attending MAAC but not presenting papers. We hope that you will consider joining the Student Sponsorship Program in 2013. To arrange a sponsorship, please contact: Bill Schindler, Ph.D. Assistant Professor Department of Sociology and Anthropology Washington College 300 Washington Avenue Chestertown, MD 21620 Ph: 410.778.8993 [email protected] 2 4 Publish your paper in the Journal of Middle Atlantic Archaeology Journal of Middle Atlantic Archaeology (JMAA) has been the annual publication of MAAC for 27 years. Although it is not a true proceedings of the annual meeting, preference is given to authors who have presented at the meeting. Article topics include historic and prehistoric archaeological site reports, archaeological theory and techniques, conservation practices, analytical procedures from related disciplines, regional syntheses, and book reviews. The Editor, Roger Moeller, works very closely with first-time authors. The Book Review Editor, Dennis Curry, has a knack for matching books with appropriate reviewers. Do not hesitate to contact Roger ([email protected]) with proposed manuscripts or Dennis ([email protected]) with books or topics you would like to review. 5 MAAC Plenary: Friday, March 23, 7:30 PM Research and Recovery Operations on Site of the Civil War Ironclad USS Monitor John Broadwater National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Office of National Marine Sanctuaries Join John Broadwater as he discusses his role in the federal expeditions of the USS Monitor site from 1992 to 2004. These expeditions recovered the USS Monitor's engine and gun turret. The USS Monitor's famous battle with CSS Virginia took place on March 9, 1862, just over 150 years ago. John Broadwater is author of the new book, USS Monitor: A Historic Ship Completes Its Final Voyage, from Texas A&M Press. 6 Session Schedule * denotes a paper entered in the undergraduate student paper contest ** denotes a paper entered in the graduate student paper contest Friday Morning, March 23 Track A (Beach Club C room) Session 1: Archaeology of the 20th Century: Addressing the Recent Past Organized by Richard L. Guercin (USDA Forest Service) As just a bit over ten years has lapsed since the dawn of the new century it is wise to reflect upon its predecessor. Though recent in memory much of the previous century is lost and forgotten. Moreover, development and progress are a greater threat to 20th Century sites than any another in antiquity. Contributing to this is the perception of ubiquity, the idea that the events are too recent, and that the cultural- history of the 20th Century is superiorly documented with the rise of technology. This symposium is dedicated to the ghost towns of industry, vanishing communities whose voices will soon fall silent or already have been silenced, sentinels of conflict, and the small stories that contribute to enriching the record of what is archaeology's recent past. 8:30 AM Towards an Understanding of the 20th Richard J.

  • Pocahontas's Two Rescues and Her Fluid Loyalty
    言語・地域文化研究 第 ₂6 号 2020 103 Pocahontas’s Two Rescues and Her Fluid Loyalty Hiroyuki Tsukada ポカホンタスの二つの助命と忠誠心の揺らぎ 塚田 浩幸 要 旨 ポカホンタスは、二度、ジョン・スミスの命を救った。一度目は有名な助命で、1607 年 12 月、インディアンの首長パウハタンによる処刑の寸前に、ポカホンタスが捕虜スミ スに自分の体をなげうって助命をした。これは、スミスの死と生まれ変わりを象徴的に 意味し、入植者をインディアンの世界に迎え入れる儀式で、ポカホンタスはスミスを救 うというあらかじめ決められた役割を担った。この一度目の助命の真偽については長ら く論争が行なわれてきたが、スミスが 1608 年 6 月の報告書簡でポカホンタスを「比類な き人物」と高く評価できたという事実は、助命が実際に起きたことを示している。その 6 月の時点で、スミスは助命の他に、取引や物資の提供と人質解放交渉の場面でポカホ ンタスと会う機会を持っていたが、それらの場面においては、スミスが「比類なき人物」 と評価することができるほどの行動をポカホンタスがとっていなかったからである。そ して、スミスがその報告書簡でポカホンタスを紹介したのは、入植事業の宣伝のために インディアンとの平和友好をアピールするねらいがあった。つまり、スミスに批判的な 研究者が主張するように、スミスがポカホンタスの人気にあやかって自分の名声をあげ るために助命を捏造したのではなく、助命に感銘を受けたスミスがポカホンタスの人気 を作り上げたといえるのである。 パウハタンは、一度目の助命でポカホンタスをインディアンと入植者の平和友好のシ ンボルとして仕立て上げ、その後の平和的な外交の場面にもポカホンタスを同行させて いた。しかしながら、二度目の助命は、パウハタンの外交方針に逆らって、ポカホンタ ス自身の意思によって行なわれた。1609 年 1 月、インディアンと入植者の関係が悪化す るなか、パウハタンがスミスを本当に襲おうとしているところをポカホンタスがスミス に密告して救った。この二つの助命のあいだの期間、ポカホンタスは入植者と頻繁に会 うなかで理解を深め、パウハタン連合のインディアンとしての忠誠心に揺らぎを生じさ せていたのである。つまり、ポカホンタスは、単なるパウハタンの遣いとしての平和友 好のシンボルであることをやめ、自らを平和友好の使者として確立させるに至ったので ある。 本稿の著作権は著者が保持し、クリエイティブ・コモンズ表示 4.0 国際ライセンス(CC-BY)下に提供します。 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/deed.ja 104 論文 ポカホンタスの二つの助命と忠誠心の揺らぎ (塚田 浩幸) Table of contents 1.

    PRESENTATION #1 OF A THREE PART SERIES ON THE ETHNIC SETTLEMENT OF SOUTHWEST VIRGINIA By: Lawrence J. Fleenor, Jr. Copyright and All Rights Reserved March 2019 Introduction to the Series In the Spring of 2019 I was asked to write and dictate a three part series on the three dominant ethnic settlement patterns of Southwest Virginia. They were presented in roughly 45 minute segments, and broadcast so as to be received on cell phones by participants who were in their cars travelling to attend a conference on economic development that was to occur at U. Va - Wise. Most will be driving down the Great Valley of Virginia on I-81, similarly to what our ancestors did. They can think about these historic events as they drive past the places connected with them. The process of ‘writing’ consisted primarily of pulling together material I had been composing and publishing for years. It occurred to me that the current compilation would be of general interest. Therefore, some of the earlier essays will be removed from my web site, and this more globally focused one substituted so that it can be read by the general public. First of all let me say that I am well aware that there were people here before the settlers from the Old World arrived. We all honor our Indian heritage, which is too multifaceted to be included here. I also acknowledge our Black heritage. I appreciate that 40% of the folks who travelled down the Wilderness Road, which is roughly I-81, were Black. For those people interested in Black history I recommend Alex Haley’s Roots, which I cannot equal.

    Defining the Greater York River Indigenous Cultural Landscape Prepared by: Scott M. Strickland Julia A. King Martha McCartney with contributions from: The Pamunkey Indian Tribe The Upper Mattaponi Indian Tribe The Mattaponi Indian Tribe Prepared for: The National Park Service Chesapeake Bay & Colonial National Historical Park The Chesapeake Conservancy Annapolis, Maryland The Pamunkey Indian Tribe Pamunkey Reservation, King William, Virginia The Upper Mattaponi Indian Tribe Adamstown, King William, Virginia The Mattaponi Indian Tribe Mattaponi Reservation, King William, Virginia St. Mary’s College of Maryland St. Mary’s City, Maryland October 2019 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY As part of its management of the Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail, the National Park Service (NPS) commissioned this project in an effort to identify and represent the York River Indigenous Cultural Landscape. The work was undertaken by St. Mary’s College of Maryland in close coordination with NPS. The Indigenous Cultural Landscape (ICL) concept represents “the context of the American Indian peoples in the Chesapeake Bay and their interaction with the landscape.” Identifying ICLs is important for raising public awareness about the many tribal communities that have lived in the Chesapeake Bay region for thousands of years and continue to live in their ancestral homeland. ICLs are important for land conservation, public access to, and preservation of the Chesapeake Bay. The three tribes, including the state- and Federally-recognized Pamunkey and Upper Mattaponi tribes and the state-recognized Mattaponi tribe, who are today centered in their ancestral homeland in the Pamunkey and Mattaponi river watersheds, were engaged as part of this project. The Pamunkey and Upper Mattaponi tribes participated in meetings and driving tours.

  • Storm Winds That Fulfill His Word: Tempests, the Jesuits, and the Evangelization of Florida, 1566-1572 by Frank Mariotti
    3 Storm Winds That Fulfill His Word: Tempests, the Jesuits, and the Evangelization of Florida, 1566-1572 by Frank Mariotti Praise the LORD from the earth, you sea monsters and all depths; Fire and hail, snow and mist, storm winds that fulfill his word; (Psalm 148:7-8 NAB) To enter Florida is to enter the realm of storms. For hundreds of years, Florida has lured migrants to its shores, inviting them to pursue their dreams. But then there are the storms. Pinfilo de Narvaez, Tristan de Luna y Arellano and Angel de Villafane, all sixteenth- century would-be conquistadors, saw their visions of glory dashed in howling winds and heaving seas. In our own century, hurricanes in 1926 and 1928 killed thousands, administering a coup de grace to Florida's fabulous land boom of the Roaring Twenties. Several years later, in 1935, another hurricane sent four hundred people to their graves, while obliterating the so-called "Eighth Wonder of the World," the Key West Extension of Henry M. Flagler's Florida East Coast Railway. Most recently, in 1992, a rampaging Hurricane Andrew made a major contribution to Florida's "State of Rage."1 The Jesuits laboring in Florida between 1566 and 1572, the first of their religious order to evangelize in Spanish America, also saw their share of storms. They devoted pages of their letters to descrip- tions of the perils that they endured on sea and land because of rain, shoals, wind, waves, and tempests. These storm narratives give us keen insights into the interior world of the missionaries.
