INA Newsletter, Spring 1990 2 ENDOWMENT SUPPORT FOR INA In 1973, INA was only a dream backed by pledges from founding directors amounting to $50,000 annually for our first three years. INA has in the succeeding 17 years grown into a prominent institute with a solid record of research and publication. Annual expenses have grown to more than $800,000; these do not include funds from Texas A&M University which now pay faculty salaries to most of INA's original academic staff. During these years of growth, one thing has not changed. INA staff salaries remain dependent on annual giving. With a proven record of success, it is time that IN A be able to offer job security to employees who have devoted up to sixteen years of service to the institute. We have, therefore, begun to raise an endowment, starting with the modest goal of $900,000. We are especially pleased that in December we were awarded a Challenge Grant of $225,000 from the National Endowment for the Humanities. Every three dollars we raise will be matched by one dollar from the NEH. In their own words: The NEH grant is both a challenge and an honor: it challenges the recipient institution to make a strong case to its donors and, at the same time, helps in the fund-raising effort by recognizing the institution in the nationwide competition for these awards. INA is to be counted among the few. Of 166 applicants for NEH Challenge Grants, only 41 were successful. And INA received the only award in the state of Texas. The plan for the funds as they are raised and matched is to use them in three major ways. Some will be used to help pay for the Turkish Headquarters we are building. Most of the funds, however, will be put into the Institute of Nautical Archaeology Foundation, created to hold endowment money for INA; the interest from these funds will be used to pay staff salaries and to maintain the headquarters. We have received gifts or pledges totalling $131,000 to date, moving us steadily towards our July 1990 goal of$175,000. The INA Newsletter is our means of keeping INA members informed of the research their donations help make possible, and has never been used to request additional funds from them. In this case, however, we want members to know of this endowment campaign, with the exceptional opportunities matching NEH funds allow. Gifts to the endowment in any amount may be made to the Institute of Nautical Archaeology and sent to it at P.O.

    Navigating the Atlantic World: Piracy, Illicit Trade, and the Construction of Commercial Networks, 1650-1791 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University by Jamie LeAnne Goodall, M.A. Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2016 Dissertation Committee: Margaret Newell, Advisor John Brooke David Staley Copyright by Jamie LeAnne Goodall 2016 Abstract This dissertation seeks to move pirates and their economic relationships from the social and legal margins of the Atlantic world to the center of it and integrate them into the broader history of early modern colonization and commerce. In doing so, I examine piracy and illicit activities such as smuggling and shipwrecking through a new lens. They act as a form of economic engagement that could not only be used by empires and colonies as tools of competitive international trade, but also as activities that served to fuel the developing Caribbean-Atlantic economy, in many ways allowing the plantation economy of several Caribbean-Atlantic islands to flourish. Ultimately, in places like Jamaica and Barbados, the success of the plantation economy would eventually displace the opportunistic market of piracy and related activities. Plantations rarely eradicated these economies of opportunity, though, as these islands still served as important commercial hubs: ports loaded, unloaded, and repaired ships, taverns attracted a variety of visitors, and shipwrecking became a regulated form of employment. In places like Tortuga and the Bahamas where agricultural production was not as successful, illicit activities managed to maintain a foothold much longer.

  • Technologies for Underwater Archaeology and Maritime Preservation
    Technologies for Underwater Archaeology and Maritime Preservation September 1987 NTIS order #PB88-142559 Recommended Citation: U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, Technologies for Underwater Archaeol- ogy and Maritime Preservation— Background Paper, OTA-BP-E-37 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, September 1987). Library of Congress Catalog Card Number 87-619848 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402-9325 (order form on the last page of this background paper) Foreword Exploration, trading, and other maritime activity along this Nation’s coast and through its inland waters have played crucial roles in the discovery, settlement, and develop- ment of the United States. The remnants of these activities include such varied cul- tural historic resources as Spanish, English, and American shipwrecks off the Atlantic and Pacific coasts; abandoned lighthouses; historic vessels like Maine-built coastal schooners, or Chesapeake Bay Skipjacks; and submerged prehistoric villages in the Gulf Coast. Together, this country’s maritime activities make up a substantial compo- nent of U.S. history. This background paper describes and assesses the role of technology in underwater archaeology and historic maritime preservation. As several underwater projects have recently demonstrated, advanced technology, often developed for other uses, plays an increasingly important role in the discovery and recovery of historic shipwrecks and their contents. For example, the U.S. Government this summer employed a powerful remotely operated vehicle to map and explore the U.S.S. Monitor, which lies on the bottom off Cape Hatteras. This is the same vehicle used to recover parts of the space shuttle Challenger from the ocean bottom in 1986.

Ces pratiques commerciales causent une controverse vive et enflammée au sein du monde archéologique. Le principal point de litiges concerne la mise en vente des objets extraits lors de fouille. La mise en marché du patrimoine archéologique éveille les fibres protectionnistes. Cela incite certains organismes à poser des gestes pour la protection du patrimoine. C’est le cas pour l’UNESCO qui fait la promotion depuis 2001 d’une Convention pour la protection du patrimoine submergé. Malgré tous les arguments à l’encontre des compagnies de « chasse aux trésors », cette Convention est loin de faire l’unanimité des gouvernements à travers le monde, qui ne semblent pas prêts à rendre ces pratiques illégales.

COTTON MATHER’S WONDERS OF THE INVISIBLE WORLD: AN AUTHORITATIVE EDITION by PAUL M. WISE Under the direction of Reiner Smolinski ABSTRACT In Wonders of the Invisible World, Cotton Mather applies both his views on witchcraft and his millennial calculations to events at Salem in 1692. Although this infamous treatise served as the official chronicle and apologia of the 1692 witch trials, and excerpts from Wonders of the Invisible World are widely anthologized, no annotated critical edition of the entire work has appeared since the nineteenth century. This present edition seeks to remedy this lacuna in modern scholarship, presenting Mather’s seventeenth-century text next to an integrated theory of the natural causes of the Salem witch panic. The likely causes of Salem’s bewitchment, viewed alongside Mather’s implausible explanations, expose his disingenuousness in writing about Salem. Chapter one of my introduction posits the probability that a group of conspirators, led by the Rev.
