Beads from the African Burial Ground, New York City
Excavation of the African Burial Ground in New York City yielded the skeletal remains of more than 400 individuals. This paper is a preliminary discussion of the beads associated with seven of the burials. The in situ bead configurations of three of the internments are distinctive and appear to be indicative of cultural practices of Africans in 18th century New York. The configurations incude necklaces and possibly wristlets, as well as waistbead…
La Arqueología de la Comunidad Negra Estadounidense en tiempos recientes
Se realiza una revisión de trabajos arqueológicos sobre afro-americanos según estudios de la diáspora y basados en la literatura que define la experiencia negra en Norteamérica. La atención se centra en el establecimiento de la libertad mediante la fundación de comunidades de esclavos fugitivos y asentamientos independientes de personas libres, así como en el uso e interpretación de la historia y teoría de la diáspora africana, en particular por …
The Geography of Resistance
This chapter examines escape routes, churches, iron forges and furnaces, and waterways that make up the pathways to freedom and “the geography of resistance.” It considers the concept of freedom as a place by exploring the connections between freedom and the landscape, and between Black communities and the Underground Railroad. It discusses the obstacles that captives escaping slavery had to hurdle, such as losing the challenges of the terrain an…
Free Black Communities and the Underground Railroad
This enlightening study employs the tools of archaeology to uncover a new historical perspective on the Underground Railroad. Unlike previous histories of the Underground Railroad, which have focused on frightened fugitive slaves and their benevolent abolitionist accomplices, this book focuses instead on free African American communities, the crucial help they provided to individuals fleeing slavery, and the terrain where those flights to freedom…
The Anthropology of Archaeology
Archaeology occupies an important place in historicizing the African American experience – principally where little historical evidence survives. The nature of African American archaeology is such that archaeologists are continually challenged by the unexpected and hampered by the unknown. These are the qualities of the field that alternately inflame and inspire the public. This article examines the constructive outcomes, lasting societal benefit…

The Archaeology of Black Americans in Recent Times
