I also thank Dr. Glen Doran and Dr. Bonnie McEwan for their insights and input regarding my thesis study. Carl Halbirt, Archaeologist for the City of St. Augustine, deserves great thanks for providing the study sample. I gratefully acknowledge the assistance of Dr. Rochelle Marrinan and Brian Worthington in the identification of faunal remains. The expertise of Dr. David Steadman of the Ornithology Range at the Florida Museum of Natural History was likewise greatly appreciated. My graduate career would have been a great deal bleaker without the friendship and commiseration of my study-buddy and roommate Meredith Marten. Thank you for all the songs, pep talks, and mutual meltdowns. I could not have completed this effort without the love and encouragement of my parents, Bill and Sally Chambless, and my sister and brother-in-law, Susan and Marcus Kolmetz. Finally, my humble thanks be to God, from Whom all blessings flow. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS List of Tables .................................................................................... vii List of Figures .................................................................................... ix Abstract .......................................................................................... xi 1.

  • Intracoastal Waterway, Jacksonville to Miami, Florida: Maintenance Dredging
    FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY, JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA, TO MIAMI, FLORIDA MAINTENANCE DREDGING Prepared by U. S. Army Engineer District, Jacksonville Jacksonville, Florida May 1974 INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY. JACKSONVILLE TO MIAMI MAINTENANCE DREDGING ( ) Draft (X) Final Responsible Office: U. S. Army Engineer District, Jacksonville, Florida. 1. Name of Action: (X) Administrative ( ) Legislative 2. Description of Action: Eleven shoals are to be removed from this section of the Intracoastal Waterway as a part of the regular main­ tenance program. 3. a. Environmental Impacts. About 172,200 cubic yards of shoal material in the channel will be removed by hydraulic dredge and placed in diked upland areas and as nourishment on a county park beach south of Jupiter Inlet. b. Adverse Environmental Effects. Dredging will have a temporary adverse effect on water quality and will destroy benthic organisms in both the shoal material and on the beach. In addition, some turtle nests at the beach nourishment site may be destroyed. 4. Alternatives. Consideration was given to alternate methods of spoil disposal. It was determined that the methods selected (as described in paragraph 1) would best accomplish the purpose of the project while minimizing adverse impact on the environment. 5.

  • Appendix A: Ceramic Ware Types
    BookID 162632_ChapID BM_Proof# 1 - 13/07/2009 Appendix A: Ceramic Ware Types Eleven different ware types were recovered at the various sites. The definitions for each ware as given below. Deflt: Tin-glazed pottery made in and around Spain and the Netherlands begin- ning in the early sixteenth century (Caiger-Smith 1973:127). The paste of these vessels was often of local clays and, therefore, variable in their color. Decorations consisted of opaque white tin-glazing decorated with cobalt blue hand-painted and transfer-printed designs, which often imitated Chinese import porcelains. Delft was used in domestic wares, decorative tiles, and a variety of other uses. Redware: This ceramic type was made from about 1730 up until 1840. As an artifact category, redware comprises a broad spectrum of specific paste and decoration variations. It is generally manufactured from rather unrefined materials and fired at relatively low temperatures. Decoration may take the form of colored slips, colored glazes, incisions, etc. Since redware bodies tend to be quite porous, interior glazing is common on those vessels intended to hold liquids (Ramsay 1947:128; Fay 1986). The lead glaze on redware affords the vessel a glossy surface finish that may be produced with a low firing temperature (Ketchum 2000:10; Ramsey 1939). Stoneware: Stoneware served as the “daily use” pottery of America, particularly rural America, after its introduction during the last decade of the eighteenth century. Stoneware is a vitreous, but opaque ware, manufactured of a naturally vitrifying fine, but dense clay. The pottery was fired longer and to a higher temperature than earthenwares; a kiln temperature of a least 1200–1250°C must be obtained (Dodd 1964:274–275; Cameron 1986:319).

  • Ceramics at the First Baptist Church of America
    Ceramics at the First Baptist Church of America Chelsea Sokolow The First Baptist Church of America 75 North Main Street Providence, RI 02903 (401) 454-3418 The study of Ceramics is a valuable resource in historical archaeology. The examination of ceramic pieces can aid in dating a site, reveal information about trade and production, as well as provide insight into the social practices surrounding an archaeological site. The variations in style and material composition are linked the geographic origin, the production methods of ceramic artifacts, and are indicators of class status in a community. When a ceramic assemblage is created the first step is to identify the artifacts. The three main attributes from which ceramic pieces are identified consist of the paste, surface treatment, and decoration (in that order). The paste is the type of the clay from which the pieces is made. The surface treatment examines the manner in which the vessel has been covered or glazed. The decoration consists of the methods, motifs, designs, and colors used to decorate the piece. (FLMNH) In general, the quality of the ceramic is directly connected to the composition of the clay and the temperature at which it has been fired. As the availability of high-heat kilns and advanced technology grew during the 18th and 19th centuries, the presence of higher quality ceramics also increased. The higher the temperature at which a piece is fired the less porous it becomes, making it more functionally useful. Discovered at the First Baptist Church of America were various types of ceramics pieces including coarse earthenware, refined earthenware, stoneware, ironstone, and porcelain pieces.

Archaeological and Historic Preservation Consultants Atlanta, Georgia Charleston, South Carolina Jacksonville, Florida MANAGEMENT SUMMARY This project was initiated in August of 2008 by Bland & Associates, Incorporated (BAI) of Jacksonville, Florida. The goal of this project was to identify and record a specific type of historic resource located within rural areas of St. Johns County in the general vicinity of Elkton and Hastings. This assessment was specifically designed to examine structures listed on the St. Johns County Property Appraiser’s website as being built prior to 1920. The survey excluded the area of incorporated Hastings. The survey goals were to develop a historic context for the farmhouses in the area, and to make an assessment of the farmhouses with an emphasis towards individual and thematic National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) potential. Florida Master Site File (FMSF) forms in a SMARTFORM II database format were completed on all newly surveyed structures, and updated on all previously recorded structures within the survey area.

The erosion problem areas are classified as either critical or non-critical and county maps and tables are provided to depict the areas designated critically and non-critically eroded. Many areas have significant historic or contemporary erosion conditions, yet the erosion processes do not currently threaten public or private interests. These areas are therefore designated as non-critically eroded areas and require close monitoring in case conditions become critical. This report, originating in 1989, is periodically updated to include additions and deletions. All information is provided for planning purposes only and the user is cautioned to obtain the most recent erosion areas listing available in the updated critical erosion report of 2016 on pages 4 through 20 or refer to the specific county of interest listed

In addi- tion, inlets act as flushing agents, providi ng renewal of bay waters by ex- change with outer continental shelf waters. Unfortunately, inlets also con- tr~bute significantly to the serious beach erosion problem prevalent along most of Florida's shoreline.
