Harvest of the Soft-Shell Clam (Mya arenaria ) by Malaga Island, Maine, Residents From 1865 to 1912 Occurred Primarily in the Fall and Winter Based on Incremental Growth Assessment
Sclerochronological analysis of Mya arenaria shells from archeological sites can provide valuable information on the lifestyles of the sites' inhabitants. Inhabited from ca. 1860 to 1912, Malaga Island, Maine, was the home of a marginalized, mixed-race community of which only scant historical records remain. Our study analyzes M. arenaria shells from three horizons of shell middens at two house sites, utilizing incremental growth assessment, age,…

Magnetic prospecting at a prehistoric and historic settlement in Maine
Magnetic prospecting at a prehistoric and historic settlement in Maine
Magnetic surveys at a prehistoric and historic site in Maine were performed in order to improve understanding of cultural features identified from excavations that detailed cultural characteristics at discrete locations, but failed to define the geometry and extent of subsurface features. The objective of the magnetic work was to non-invasively define this spatial distribution of features. Such information is required to nominate both sites to th…

Landlocked” Salmon and Early Holocene Lacustrine Adaptation in Southwestern Maine
While early Holocene sites are rare in northeastern North America, and by implication early Holocene populations were relatively low, Middle Archaic sites (7000–9000 BP) are particularly abundant in the “Lakes” region of southwestern Maine and southeastern New Hampshire. Since sea level in this region (western Gulf of Maine) was as much as 50 m below present at that time, site abundance in the “Lakes” region may be explained by an unusual set of …
Early woodland ceramic and perishable fiber industries from the Northeast: A summary and interpretation
The previous recognition of Early Woodland period ceramics and associated perishable fiber industries has been limited and less often well reported in the wide Northeast.This paper offers a summary of Early Woodland ceramics and perishables from the Northeast, including discussion of "Vinette I" ceramics, other related and possibly unrelated ceramic forms, perishables reconstructed from negative impressions, and actual perishables preserved in ra…
