Abstract:
Cultural heritage sites that bring forward the African American narrative have served a crucial role in redefining our collective history and, ultimately, reconstructing a national identity that reflects the country’s true diversity. Preservation professionals and grassroots leaders harness the power of place and the influence of historical figures to inspire and advocate for equity, funding, and recognition of our shared cultural legacy. This paper examines a range of Black heritage sites to reinforce the notion that preservation comes in many different forms and can be used as a tool to empower Black communities. Through historic preservation practice, storytelling, and partnerships, the African American Cultural Heritage Action Fund is scaling up the preservation movement to ensure the full American story will be shared with future generations.

Abstract:
Thesis (Ed.D.)--Boston University
This study seeks to contribute to our understanding of the problem of effectively encouraging historical thinking by (a) evaluating, and modifying Wineburg's heuristics for historical thinking for applicability to the problem-solving activities historians use at historic sites; (b) establishing the efficacy of a hypermedia-based education program Tories, Timid, or True Blue? at the Old North Church in Boston, Massachusetts, for encouraging historical thinking in middle- and high-school teachers (c) determining the amplifying effect that the combination of the use of multiple documents and the historic site from which they are derived ha on historical thinking. Results suggest that this combination of activities does lead teacher users to reason in ways that suggest more sophisticated historical reasoning. However, considerable attention is paid to the way in which historians and teachers think differently about the historic sites they encounter and how the overlaps therein might be used a the foundation for encouraging effective partnerships between historians and teacher a co-equal partners in improving history education.

Full text
Abstract:
An understanding of the extent to which materials and energy are free to exchange across boundaries at shipwreck sites is fundamental to the archaeological interpretation of these unique resources. The limited previous work on the dynamics of shipwreck sites suggest that they can act as either near-closed systems (e.g. Mary Rose), or open systems at some state of dynamic/quasi- equilibrium with respect to their surroundings’ (e.g. Stirling Castle). Nonetheless, our understanding of the temporal evolution of shipwreck sites and thus, whether they are open or closed systems, is extremely limited. This thesis presents repeat (intra-annual; annual; and decadal) Multibeam Echosounder (MBES) surveys for five shipwreck sites (the largest published collection of shipwreck site MBES time-series to date) from a range of environments: the Richard Montgomery, tidally dominated (weakly asymmetrical); the Scylla, storm dominated; the Burgzand Noord site, tidally dominated (strongly asymmetrical); the Stirling Castle, dominated by large-scale geomorphological processes; and the Algerian, sheltered. By quantifying the temporal variability (through bed-level change plots) and the Metocean, geological and geomorphological conditions of these wreck sites, the impact of the differing marine environments on the wreck site’s taphonomic pathway was constrained. Through the collation of these MBES time-series the importance of being able to account for the uncertainty of the data when comparing two time steps was realised. To this end, a robust methodology for assessing the uncertainty of the MBES data was developed for the use with marine MBES data. The spatial patterns of scouring and deposition were accounted for through the application of the simple principles of scouring around bluff obstacles (cylinders, cuboids and piers etc.). Those sites which experienced a disturbance during the observation period (e.g. a storm event at the Scylla, sandbank migration at the Stirling Castle and the implementation of physical protection at the Burgzand Noord site) underwent a larger range of bed-level change and altered dramatically in their scour/deposition arrangement. Those sites at quasi-equilibrium (SS Richard Montgomery, Algerian and Scylla for the final time-step) underwent no perceivable net bed-level change over the observation period and had stable scour and deposition features. The comprehension of shipwreck site taphonomy gained through this thesis is fundamental to the efficacy of heritage management, allowing protective measures to be site-tailored and fills a large data- and knowledge-gap in the long term (multi-annual) evolution of scour around marine anthropogenic structures.

Abstract:
Fourteen historic sites in the Eastern United States were evaluated for ways archaeological evidence was used in the development of living history, public education, and other interpretive programs. A wide range of sites, such as outdoor living history museum villages, active urban public archaeology programs, sites associated with well-known archaeologists, and sites where the author had personal experience, were studied.Techniques used to interpret archaeological resources to the public were identified to ascertain which were found to be the most effective in spreading the word about preservation and conservation. Technological advances have expanded interpretive possibilities and allowed innovations not thought possible ten years ago. These advances will continue, and archaeologists will need to stay abreast of innovative techniques in public interpretation in spite of excitement or trepidation. This study may serve as guidelines for museums wishing to establish innovative, but low-budget, interpretive programs.

Abstract. This research delves into the sustainability of tourism at Tour Hassan, a historic building in Morocco, by examining its carrying capacity and implementing GIS-based management strategies. As a significant cultural heritage site, Tour Hassan draws a considerable number of visitors. The study involves a comprehensive assessment of the site's carrying capacity, encompassing visitor flow analysis, infrastructure evaluation, and spatial limitations. Informed management strategies are then devised based on these findings. Leveraging Geographic Information Systems (GIS), data-driven decision-making processes are employed to optimize visitor experiences while safeguarding the historical building's integrity. This case study provides valuable insights into the effective management of tourism in historic sites, ensuring their long-term conservation and sustainable development.

Zurich, Switzerland: International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineering (IABSE), 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.2749/istanbul.2023.0920.

Full text
Abstract:
<p>Three arch-type as well as 3 cable supported alternatives have been developed for footbridges above historic sites. The two categories of arches and cable supported structures exhibit a completely different behaviour, since the latter are more flexible. The first cable variant is a straight intersection of variable width. In comparison with an arch, it is striking that the deformability is much greater the fundamental frequencies being significantly lower. However, the characteristic values for dynamics, such as the Scruton number and the accelerations of the bridge deck are significantly better. To span the site of 200 m in length, pylons of 46.7 m in height are needed. As a second alternative, a semi-circular suspension footbridge of variable height has been developed. Direct comparison with an arch counterpart is not evident. However, it could be deduced that this structure has a fairly high frequency and is also not sensitive to the important types of vibration. A full elevated walkway around a circular site can certainly be compared to its arch-shaped counterpart. Despite the lower fundamental frequency, the higher flexibility and the increased consumption of steel, the cable-supported structure performs better as for its dynamic behaviour.</p>

Abstract:
The Army is tasked with managing the cultural resources on its lands. For installations that contain large numbers of historic farmsteads, meeting these requirements through traditional archaeological approaches entails large investments of personnel, time and organization capital. Through two previous projects, Engineer Research and Development Center, Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (ERDC-CERL) cultural resource management personnel developed a methodology for efficiently identifying the best examples of historic farmstead sites, and also those sites that are least likely to be deemed eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. This report details testing the applicability of the methodology to regions across the country. Regional historic contexts were created to assist in the determination of “typical” farmsteads. The Farmstead/Ranch Eligibility Evaluation Form created by ERDC-CERL researchers was revised to reflect the broader geographic scope and the inclusion of ranches as a property type. The form was then used to test 29 sites at five military installations. The results of the fieldwork show this approach is applicable nationwide, and it can be used to quickly identify basic information about historic farmstead sites that can expedite determinations of eligibility to the National Register.

Abstract:
The National Park Service (NPS) opened the John Fitzgerald Kennedy National Historic Site (JOFI), in Brookline, Massachusetts in 1969 to commemorate the life of the 35th president, John F. Kennedy, at the home where he was born in 1917. The site was a gift from Rose Kennedy, and the Kennedy family, to the nation. It joined the Park Service initially as part of a unit managed by the Boston Service Group, a regional administrative unit that managed many parks and units that were in development and several small sites. The Administrative History traces the history of the establishment and management of John Fitzgerald Kennedy National Historic Site from efforts to commemorate the house during his presidency through the beginning of the 21st century.

Abstract:
Fort Huachuca Environmental and Natural Resources Division (ENRD) sent funds to ERDC-CERL to develop a historic context that assists Fort Huachuca personnel in identifying the likely history and provenance of numerous historic range features located across Fort Huachuca's training lands. The historic context will be used by cultural resources personnel to evaluate and manage the resources appropriately. Various historic training range features (e.g., structures, fragments, and items left over from previous activities) are located across the ranges of Fort Huachuca, representing its long and storied history. To help identify and catalog these features, ERDC-CERL conducted a field survey of the training ranges in 2016 in or-der to photograph the historic range features. Forty-one historic range features were identified. Researchers conducted archival research, literature reviews, and image analysis of historic and current maps and photographs to identify the 41 historic range features and place them within a chronological context of Fort Huachuca's training ranges. The report concludes with guidance on how to identify and associate sites and features within the overall historic training range chronology and evaluate them appropriately for significance and National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) eligibility.

Abstract:
A number of sites around the United States have used activated carbon (AC) amendments to remedy contaminated sediments. Variation in site-specific characteristics likely influences the long-term fate and efficacy of AC treatment. The long-term effectiveness of an AC amendment to sediment is largely unknown, as the field performance has not been monitored for more than three years. As a consequence, the focus of this research effort was to evaluate AC’s long-term (6–10 yr) performance. These assessments were performed at two pilot-scale demonstration sites, Grasse River, Massena, New York and Canal Creek, Aberdeen Proving Ground (APG), Aberdeen, Maryland, representing two distinct physical environments. Sediment core samples were collected after 6 and 10 years of remedy implementation at APG and Grasse River, respectively. Core samples were collected and sectioned to determine the current vertical distribution and persistence of AC in the field. The concentration profile of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in sediment pore water with depth was measured using passive sampling. Sediment samples from the untreated and AC-treated zones were also assessed for bioaccumulation in benthic organisms. The data collected enabled comparison of AC distribution, PCB concentrations, and bioaccumulation measured over the short- and long-term (months to years).

Abstract:
Pavement performance is a complex issue which depends on many contributing factors. Examining the performance of real-life pavements across the state determines what the actual service lives are for the pavements. For the purposes of this study, only selected LTPP projects were examined, along with a database containing all the historic repair projects completed in Indiana. Pertinent information present in the Indiana Historic Contracts Database was extracted concerning the types of pavement repair and treatments options commonly employed within the state, the time between repairs, etc. These data were used to determine descriptive statistical parameters and was summarized in graph form. Similarly, data about selected LTPP GPS and SPS sites were downloaded from the online website, LTPP InfoPave and a comparative study between companion sites was performed. These data included study site and pavement-related information, such as construction dates, pavement structure details, maintenance and repair history, and pavement distress surveys. These data were used to draw conclusions about the impact of treatment applications, climatic and geologic factors, traffic volume, and pavement structures on pavement performance. Gaps in knowledge about pavement failure modes, distress data, and effectiveness of treatment applications mentioned in the contracts database file hampered efforts to form a complete picture of the effectiveness of treatment options and their timely (or untimely) application. Similarly, details about pavement mixture design and differentiating factors between companion sites prevented researchers from narrowing down the causes leading to the observed pavement distress.
