Subject: SHA 2006 Session on Foodways in Historical Archaeology
Foodways and Historical Archaeology Session
SHA's 2006
I am interested in organizing a session focusing on the ways
in which historical archaeologists are approaching foodways in the
past. Issues that spring to mind as being of interest include: ethnic,
socio-economic, religious, temporal, age, and gender differences, as well
as daily fare in comparison to feasting events, though any others would
certainly be welcome. Papers could include both theoretical and more
research-based perspectives. Throughout my research in foodways there
appears to exist a inherent connection between food and identity and it is
my hope that this relationship can be explored through documentary and
material culture studies (of course including archaeological collections)
in the past to gain a greater understanding of how people's identities
affected their daily lives and their food choices. Please let me know if
you have a potential paper which addresses any of these issues. Thanks so
much.
