Industrial Times in South American Archaeology
This chapter presents a review of industrial archaeology and a discussion of recent advances in South America. Industrialization in South American countries can be understood by analyzing the uniqueness of local processes, oversea connections, the particularities of its archaeological remains, and other sources. Industrial material culture can be approached through four main themes: globalization and modernization, capitalism and the emergence of…
A new insight into the sheathing of early 19th-century French warships
Materials characterisation has largely been applied to the study of modern shipwrecks, providing valuable data for dating, provenance, and technological assessment. The comparison between vessels from the same period and origin, however, is less common. A comparative approach based on fine-grained data retrieved from intra-fleet warships, for instance, can help to identify their service histories and detect short-term technological or supply-rela…
Compositional, Microstructural, and Microtextural Evolution of an Octahedrite Iron Meteorite During Experimental Forging
Meteoritic iron represents an early metallic resource exploited by human societies. Despite its archaeological significance, the thermo‐mechanical behavior of meteoritic iron during forging remains poorly understood. In this study, forging experiments were conducted on an octahedrite iron meteorite to evaluate its chemical, microstructural, and microtextural evolution under controlled thermal conditions. Samples were forged at three temperature r…
Estudio histórico y arqueológico de sitios costeros del siglo XIX vinculados a la navegación oceánica en Patagones, Argentina
La costa de Patagones reviste interés para el estudio de la navegación y actividades asociadas durante los siglos XVIII y XIX. La información histórica da cuenta de la importancia de este entorno; no obstante, el conocimiento sobre los barcos que surcaron y naufragaron en estas aguas es menos abundante. Las investigaciones arqueológico-históricas desarrolladas en el periodo 2018-2024 han aportado nueva información sobre pecios y otras evidencias …
Estudio preliminar e identificación de un campamento de náufragos en el contexto de la Guerra del Brasil (1825-1828), Partido de Patagones, Buenos Aires
La navegación, la tecnología naval, la vida a bordo y las actividades llevadas a cabo en barcos de época moderna y contemporánea han sido temas ampliamente estudiados dentro de la arqueología marítima y náutica. Sin embargo, el devenir de los náufragos sobrevivientes de accidentes y las correspondientes evidencias materiales en la costa, no fueron abordados en grado semejante. Las investigaciones muestran un desarrollo dispar, destacando los trab…
Identificación de las patentes de Muntz por medio de técnicas de rayos X
This article developed an archaeometric examination of the brass sheathing remains recovered from two mid-19th-century shipwrecks, in Mexico: El Ángel site and the Black Warrior (1858), studied by the Vice-Directorate of Underwater Archaeology (SAS) of the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) in collaboration with scholars from other research centres. The main aim of this research was twofold: on the one hand, to obtain compositi…

La batalla de Carmen de Patagones (1827)
La batalla de Carmen de Patagones fue parte de la guerra entre las Provincias Unidas del Río de la Plata y el Imperio del Brasil (1825-1828). Ocurrió entre finales de febrero y principios de marzo de 1827 y comprendió varios eventos en diferentes sectores de la costa del río Negro, en la actual Provincia de Buenos Aires, República Argentina. En este artículo presentamos la metodología utilizada para evaluar el lugar donde se emplazó la batería co…
Ballasting a Mid-19th Century Chilean Navy Armed Transport
Ballast is essential for vessels to lower their centre of gravity, improve stability, and ease their motion during sailing. During the modern period, heavy materials used for ballasting ships were an issue of particular concern for both authorities and ship owners, subjected to increasing control, regulation, and standardisation. These items represent a very common find in wreck sites and deserve special attention, as their characteristics, distr…
Heritage and the Sea, Volume 1
Industrialisation, Warfare, and Science
For European naval powers, whose economic and political well-being depended on the success of naval enterprises, warships played a fundamental role. Based on a multi-scalar and comparative approach, evidence from post-medieval (or historical) shipwrecks, can contribute to a better understanding of modern technology and society. This article deals with the innovations of British, French, and Spanish warships that sailed from about 1750 to 1815. An…
New remarks on the mid-17th-century gunfounding in Northern Europe
This article deals with the study of an assemblage of scrap bronze guns recovered from the Delta III site, identified as a Dutch merchant ship lost in the port of Cadiz, Spain, about the third quarter of the seventeenth century. This kind of remains is seldom preserved and therefore stands as a unique source for addressing modern bronze gunfounding. Its main characteristics and drawbacks were outlined and discussed on historical and archaeologica…
Lead Isotope Analysis by Tims for Provenance Studies in Archaeology
Lead isotope analysis (LIA) is a valuable means for assessing provenance of raw material used in artefacts from Antiquity. Available data on isotopic composition of Roman-period artefacts (e.g. lead ingots from shipwrecks) and samples from lead sources constitute an outstanding frame of reference to develop these studies. In this work, analysis was performed on five Roman-period lead anchor stocks from Catalonia, Spain. Isotope data were obtained…
The Fougueux (1785-1805)
The 74-gun French ship Fougueux (1785-1805) belonged to the Spanish-French fleet that faced the British in the Battle of Trafalgar on 21 October 1805. This warship was lost off the coast of Sancti Petri after the battle. About two centuries later, an array of iron cannons and wooden remains were studied at this site by the Underwater Archaeology Centre of Andalusia. This paper presents the results of the analysis of the ship’s construction method…
Seeking a common ground for the Nautical Archaeology Digital Library (Nadl). Reflections on science, method, theory and templates
Data sharing is a fundamental process for the advancement of both natural and social sciences. Starting from the idea that computers and the internet have drastically changed the world in the last decades, this paper advocates for the creation of a space where archaeologists from around the world can share information about maritime history and exchange data with colleagues. Following the principles of open access, we argue that raw data publicat…

State of the art of historical archaeology in Argentina
Historical archaeology can be defined as the specialty that deals with the recent human past, in America’s case, since the arrival of the Europeans to the continent, through the material evidence of human activities and other sources of information. Works carried out within this scope deal with multiple topics and from different theoretical perspectives. Many epistemological debates have taken place on the definition of historical archaeology and…
