Daniel,
Sounds like you paper would be absolutely perfect ... Please feel
free to join us.
You will need to log in to the SHA site, and find our symposium: Two
Centuries On: Historical Archaeology of the War of 1812. And then
register your abstract, etc. If you have any problems, please drop me
a note.
Deadline is next Sunday, so please proceed ASAP to make sure
everything is good.

>Lasting from only 1812-15, America's "second war of independence" had a
>profound effect on the young nation. While these effects were most obvious
>in relation to contemporary relations with Canada and Great Britain, perhaps
>more profound were its long-term effects on America's relations with Native
>American communities, who largely sided with the British. Despite the
>relatively short-term nature of the conflict, nearly the entire country was
>affected - from the Atlantic Coast to the Mississippi Valley, and from the
>Great Lakes and Old Northwest to the Gulf Coast. This session will provide a
>sampling of current research on War of 1812 sites from a wide variety of
>geographical contexts.
