The Emergence and Evolution of Charleston, South Carolina’s (U.S.A.) Colonial Economy
Cattle (Bos taurus) as colonists in South Carolina’s Lowcountry (USA), CE 1670–1900
A case study in animal products and urban site formation processes
Twenty-four zooarchaeological collections from Charleston, South Carolina (USA; ca. 1690s–1820s), suggest choices in the use of animals could extend beyond hierarchical social distinctions, food, and meat utility. The city’s economy incorporated animals and animal products from nonmarket sources for purposes other than meat. Some people raised cattle and smaller livestock on their properties, perhaps slaughtering animals there. Low-meat-utility p…

Preliminary Identification of African-Style Rouletted Colonoware in the Colonial South Carolina Lowcountry
Colonoware, a low-fired earthenware made by enslaved Africans, African Americans, and Native Americans, is a crucial source for exploring the formation and materialization of colonial identities. Yet, the origins and ethnic associations of this enigmatic colonial potting tradition have long been debated. Recent ethnographic studies of African ceramic traditions have led to our reexamination of a surface treatment lately identified on colonoware v…
What is this bird? The quest to identify parrot remains from the Heyward-Washington House, Charleston, South Carolina
Excavations in the 1970s at the ca. 1772 Heyward-Washington House in Charleston, South Carolina, produced a rich and diverse archaeological assemblage spanning the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Among the vertebrate remains are four bones from a large member of the parrot family. We now believe the bird was a blue-fronted or turquoise-fronted amazon parrot (Psittacidae: Amazona aestiva), an animal originating in South America. Over the deca…

Charleston’s Powder Magazine and the Development of a Southern City
Archaeology of Southern Urban Landscapes
The rapid growth and development of urban areas in the South have resulted in an increase in the number of urban archaeology projects required by federal and state agencies. These projects provide opportunities not only to investigate marginal areas between the town and countryside but also to recover information long buried beneath the earliest urban structures. Such projects have also created a need for a one-volume update on archaeology as it …

Reitz, Elizabeth J., Zierden, Martha A. (2014): Wildlife in urban Charleston, South Carolina, USA. Anthropozoologica 49 (1): 33-46, DOI: 10.5252/az2014n1a03, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5252/az2014n1a03
Microstructures of phosphatic porcelain from sintering to vitrification
Eight phosphatic porcelain sherds recovered from various historical sites in Charleston were analyzed by electron microprobe. Some sherds contain sulfur (2.3–3.1wt.% SO 3 ); others contain only traces of this component. The analytical data suggest that the sulfurous sherds are Bow porcelain (London, Bowcock period, ca. 1755–1769). The origin(s) of the low‐S samples remains unidentified; one compositionally resembles “gold‐anchor period” (phosphat…
Landscape and Social Relations at Charleston Townhouse Sites (1770–1850)
Animal Use and the Urban Landscape in Colonial Charleston, South Carolina, USA
Pigs in Charleston, South Carolina
Another's Country
The 18th-century South was a true melting pot, bringing together colonists from England, France, Germany, Ireland, Switzerland, and other locations, in additions to African slaves - all of whom shared in the experiences of adapting to a new environment and interacting with American Indians. The shared process of immigration, adaptation, and creolization resulted in a rich and diverse historic mosaic of cultures. The cultural encounters of these g…
