DESCRIPTION:\n\n'Creole Synthesis' to 'Racial Modernity': An archaeology\no
 f culture change in the Native and African American Community in Setauket\
 , New\nYork\n\n&nbsp\;The\ntalk is about a historical archaeological study
  of a mixed heritage Native and\nAfrican American community on the north s
 hore of Long Island in New York. The\npurpose of the project is to determi
 ne and document the response of this\ncommunity to an increasingly hostile
  racial environment over the course of the\n19th and 20th centuries. While
  nonwhites consistently faced racial prejudice\,\nthe nature of racism in 
 the early 19th century post-emancipation era of 'creole\nsynthesis' in New
  York was arguably less severe than in the mid-century and\nlater when a '
 racial modernity' took hold. I examine how Native and African\nAmericans a
 djusted the economic and cultural strategies they used to confront\nracism
  at the household level. The discussion will draw from archival and\nmater
 ial culture data related to two archaeological sites associated with\nearl
 y-19th and late-19th century “colored” households in Setauket\, NY. My hyp
 othesis is\nthat if racism did intensify over the course of the nineteenth
  century\, then\nthe data from the two sites should indicate different pat
 terns in the evidence\nof community segregation\, labor practices and weal
 th\, as well as material\nidentity as these "colored" people were further 
 marginalized socially\nand economically through time.\n\n

 <p>The\ntalk is about a historical archaeological study of a mixed heritag
 e Native and\nAfrican American community on the north shore of Long Island
  in New York. The\npurpose of the project is to determine and document the
  response of this\ncommunity to an increasingly hostile racial environment
  over the course of the\n19th and 20th centuries. While nonwhites consiste
 ntly faced racial prejudice\,\nthe nature of racism in the early 19th cent
 ury post-emancipation era of 'creole\nsynthesis' in New York was arguably 
 less severe than in the mid-century and\nlater when a 'racial modernity' t
 ook hold. I examine how Native and African\nAmericans adjusted the economi
 c and cultural strategies they used to confront\nracism at the household l
 evel. The discussion will draw from archival and\nmaterial culture data re
 lated to two archaeological sites associated with\nearly-19th and late-19t
 h century “colored” households in Setauket\, NY. My hypothesis is\nthat if
  racism did intensify over the course of the nineteenth century\, then\nth
 e data from the two sites should indicate different patterns in the eviden
 ce\nof community segregation\, labor practices and wealth\, as well as mat
