Hello All!
I realize this is late notice, but I wanted to put it out for consideration...
My colleague Emily Weglian and I would like to put together a session for the
upcoming SHA meeting in January 2011 in Austin, TX (the deadline for submissions
is fast approaching). We want to explore various aspects of historical
neighborhood archaeology. We have been doing work on our college campus,
Cuyahoga Community College in Cleveland, investigating the changing urban
neighborhood from the 1860s to 1960s (when our campus was built). We envision
this session to cover a wide variety of topics, from results of the archaeology
itself to working with students, volunteers, community members, collective
community histories, historical outlines of community development and change,
etc. If you have interest, or would like more information, please contact me
off-list, and we will go from there.
Our tentative title is: Neighborhood Archaeologies: Digging in our own
backyards.
Thanks!
