This thesis will discuss the increasing threat that climate change poses to archaeological sites through sea level rise and erosion. This will provide background on the effects climate change will have on site preservation and...
An Examination of Soil Cores and Environmental Reconstruction of the Pumpkin Key Shell Bearing Site (8Cr25) in the Ten-Thousand Islands Region of Southwest Florida
The Ten Thousand Islands (TTI) region of Southwest Florida is marked by shell middens and shell mound sites. Prehistoric populations created these sites through intentionality, and/or refuse deposition. The creation of mounds and middens...
Site discovery is critical to submerged archaeology's contribution to theoretical reconstructions of past peoples. Remote sensing tools help locate human activity and targets, and scientists are continuously devising new methods. Remote...
The Aucilla River Basin consists of archaeological sites temporally ranging from Paleoindian to Mississippian periods. Along with the archaeological sites, quarry outcrops utilized for stone tool production by past populations are...
Half Mile Rise Sink (8TA98) is a submerged prehistoric site located approximately one hundred meters downriver from the Page-Ladson site in the Aucilla River of Northwest Florida. Here, all known Floridian Paleoindian projectile point...
The end of the Pleistocene and subsequent transition into the early Holocene marked a time of great environmental, climatic, and geological flux in Florida. Furthermore, these changes influenced a shift in the technologies of people...
Archaeological excavations in Florida have recovered numerous specimens of megafauna over the past decades. A sample of these specimens have been subject to carbon and oxygen stable isotope analysis to determine individual diet and water...
The geological and hydrological contexts of the Wakulla River Drainage Basin may present the conditions needed to host potentially significant archaeological deposits associated with intact stratigraphy. To date, there is no in-depth...
Numerous pre-Contact fishhooks have been recovered from the Aucilla River in northwest Florida. These specimens have provided evidence of small capture fishing methods such as hook and line fishing, primarily in the form of bone hooks....
Long in the Tooth Paleoclimate Reconstruction Using Legacy Faunal Collections and Stable Isotopes at the Page-Ladson Site (8JE591), Jefferson County, Florida
In the past half century, the remains of terrestrial megafaunal species have been recovered from archaeological sites across the Florida peninsula. Many of these remains have been the subject of archaeological investigations – both...
