Trowel XIV Was Greatly Appreciated Trowel Volume XIV 2013 Edited by Chris Coffey, Joseph Cully, Bernard Gilhooly & Rowan Lacey Cover Illustrations: Conor McHale For enquiries please contact: The Editors, Trowel c/o School of Archaeology Newman Building University College Dublin Belfield Dublin 4 Email: [email protected] Web: www.trowelucd.com www.trowelucd.weebly.com Published in 2013 by Chris Coffey, Joseph Cully, Bernard Gilhooly & Rowan Lacey © 2013 The Individual Contributors ISSN Number: 0791-1017. Editors Foreword Welcome to Trowel Volume XIV, student journal of UCD’s School of Archaeology. We are delighted to feature in this 25th anniversary edition twelve articles from undergraduate and postgraduate students as well as graduate scholars from a variety of interest areas. It was particularly nice to see such a positive response from undergraduates interested in making contributions to the journal this year. The decision to open up to this section of the student body was, in part, to celebrate the 25 years in which Trowel has enjoyed their support and readership, but it was also a recognition that undergraduates are key to the future of archaeological research and Trowel has long endeavoured to provide a platform to that end. We wish to take this opportunity to express our thanks to the many authors who have given their time and energy to make contributions to this journal. In addition to the authors of the twelve articles, this volume also contains a book review by Mick Corcoran on Áine Foley’s The Royal Manors of Medieval Co. Dublin: Crown and Community (Four Courts Press, 2013). It also features reflections by Cóilín Ó Drisceoil and Dr. Charles Mount, who have written special pieces on aspects of Irish archaeology over the last 25 years. Thanks are also due to Dr. Aidan O’Sullivan, whose long association with the journal is underscored in his formal introduction to this edition. The editors would also like to extend their gratitude to the staff of the UCD School of Archaeology and a special thank you goes to Conor McDermott for advice freely given to the authors of several incarnations of the journal, not least ourselves. We are also grateful to Prof. Tadhg O’Keeffe whose gracious acceptance to launch Trowel XIV was greatly appreciated. We are indebted to Eion Bairead, who selflessly gave his time to digitise every back issue of Trowel, facilitating an ease of accessibility to the journal on our website (a process which began during the tenure of Trowel XIII) and to Conor McHale, who has provided the artwork for many earlier editions and who has done a wonderful job with the cover of Trowel XIV. A special acknowledgement is due to the Institute of Archaeologists of Ireland and The UCD Archaeology Society for their continued support over the years and further thanks are extended also to Valerie Norton of the HII. The editors are proud to announce that this year also marks the beginning of formal publishing for the journal as Trowel will now be hosted by EBSCO Publishing. This positive departure means that Trowel articles will be accessible to a much wider academic readership than was previously possible and it is hoped that this will impact significantly on the development of Trowel over the ensuing quarter century. To the many of you that have offered support and goodwill over the past few months, thank you. Chris, Joseph, Bernard & Rowan December 2013. 1 Introduction Trowel is unique, and has been for decades, both in Irish archaeology, and beyond. Since it was conceived of, and established (by yours truly as it happens), in the Spring of 1987, and first published in 1988, it has been one of the world's few entirely student-driven archaeology journals, edited by students and written - for the most part - by them. Back then it was churned out on coal- burning computers that had green text on a black screen, and was stored on floppy disks that were actually floppy - and you really had to know where to get published copies. Now it is expertly produced using publishing software and ultimately distributed online to an audience all over the world. Throughout its history though, it has always been about young (for the most part!) archaeologists who were eager to contribute to the debate; to tell stories about the past in the present; to communicate the excitement of archaeology and its extraordinary capacity to explore other worlds and other people's lives. Looking back through past volumes, you can see the names of editors and authors who have since gone on to become some of the leading archaeologists (...excepting yours truly) in Irish archaeology. For most of them, Trowel was their first opportunity to publish, a measure of their eagerness to contribute to their discipline. Indeed at one stage in the early 1990s, an eminent Irish archaeologist commented in print that UCD's Trowel was one of the few venues where scholars were actually asking new questions, rather than simply admiring the richness of Ireland's archaeology. Of course, Trowel has also been about archaeology internationally, and many papers down through the years have also engaged with the landscapes and material culture of places beyond this small island, and that's as it should be. Who knows what Trowel will be like in another 25 years? Hopefully it will still be about people who are intrigued by our material past and who want to communicate that sense of fascination and curiosity to others.

  • The Bird Cage Theatre Story
    THE BIRD CAGE THEATRE STORY The world famous Bird Cage Theatre, also referred to as The Bird Cage Opera House Saloon. This was a fancy way in the 1880's of describing a combination saloon, gambling hall and a house of ill repute. Well, that was the Bird Cage Theatre and it was known across America by its unreputable reputation. In 1882, the New York Times referred to the Bird Cage as, "the Roughest, Bawdiest, and most Wicked night spot between Basin Street and the Barbary Coast. For nine years it never closed its doors, operating 24 hours a day. During this period, 16 gun and knife fights took some 26 lives. There are still 140 bullet holes through-out the building, marking the ceilings, walls, and floors. Many famous happenings occurred in the barroom, which is indicated by the many bullet holes, but one of the most outstanding occurrences was the brutal killing of the lovely lady of the evening, Margarita. She was sitting on the lap of gambler Billy Milgreen when suddenly Billy's regular girl, another Bird Cage trollop by the name of Gold Dollar, entered the room holding a double edged stiletto. In a fit of fury, Gold Dollar proceeded to cut Margarita's heart out. She almost had the job done when she heard that the Marshall was coming. She then ran through the Bird Cage and out the back door, covered in blood. No murder charges were filed for lack of the murder weapon which she mysteriously disposed of as she fled the back of the Bird Cage.

Carlson The Western is often seen as a uniquely American narrative form, one so deeply ingrained as to constitute a national myth. This perception persists despite its inherent shortcomings, among them its inapplicability to the many instances of filmmakers outside the United States appropriating the genre and thus undercutting this view of generic exceptionalism.

    Tombstone Arizona’s History and Information Journal - September 2014 - Vol. 12 - Issue 09 - ISSN 1942-096X Interesting historical tidbits of news and information from the Town Too Tough to die. Tombstone Epitpah - December 15, 1927 “Oh! Oh! What a Night ‘Twas Says A. H. Gardner, Tombstone, Ariz. That Night Before Christmas “The evening’s entertainment began with a knockout. Johnny Walker – John W. Walker, you understand, then federal court reporter and fresh from Chicago – and I were just about putting the finishing touches to a roast mallard duck supper at the old Kreuder Café on Allen Street when Kreuder met one of his customers at the cashier’s counter and laid him cold with an uppercut that would have at that time done credit to even hard hitting bog Fitzsimmons. There were no frills to the affair. Kreuder just waited until his man came down the aisle, gave one glance at the check he handed to the cashier, and then applied a clenched fist to the point of his customer’s jaw. All was over but the shouting. “The proceedings struck me as not only being odd but as being carried out in a rather cold-blooded, businesslike manner. Being just from New York City, one might think that such an occurrence would have little effect on me. But I had never seen anything in which Kreuder laid low the man which 5 his establishment had just feasted. “Oh, yes! I did forget to tell you why Kreuder took a punch at his customer. It was this way. “I supposed the customer got some peculiar notion that a 50 per cent discount should be made on all T-bone steak dinners which he ate at Kreuder’s for every time a check for 50 cents was handed to him, he erased the ‘0,’ put a ‘2’ in front of the ‘5’ and then put the ‘cents’ mark – ‘c’ – after the ‘25.’ It seemed that the cashier became suspicious, told Kreuder CORNER OF 5TH & ALLEN STREETS about it, and according to the customs of old Tombstone of a quarter-century ago, the customer ‘had it coming to him.’ Forthwith Kreuder was duly bound to see that ‘it’ arrived in true western style.
