Studies
in Australasian Historical Archaeology
Port Essington:
The historical archaeology of
a north Australian nineteenth-century military outpost
by
Jim Allen
In 1966 Jim Allen undertook the first professional
archaeological excavation of a European site in Australia,
investigating the 1840s military settlement of Victoria, established at Port Essington.
explored the history and archaeology of the short-lived settlement, tackling
for the first time many of the themes which continue to underlie historical
archaeological research - isolation, the responses of poorly equipped and
inexperienced colonists, material culture and trade networks, the impact of
inept government bureaucracies, disease and health, and relations with the
Indigenous population. Allen’s main theoretical thrust
concerned the problems of integrating written and archaeological data, which
remains a central issue in the discipline of historical archaeology in Australasia.
Recognised for 40 years as a pivotal study in Australian
historical and contact archaeology, ASHA’s publication of Port
Essington makes this important and still highly relevant work widely
available for the first time. The volume is published complete with the
original data tables and graphs and is lavishly illustrated, with a
retrospective by Jim Allen (now Emeritus Professor in the School of
Historical & European Studies in La Trobe University). Port Essington
will appeal as a reference book to both students and professional
archaeologists.

Monographs
An Archaeological Guide to British Ceramics in Australia, 1788-1901
By Alasdair Brooks
This volume offers a readable and practical guide to the archaeological
analysis of British ceramics found in Australia
from the beginning of European settlement at Sydney through to Federation. Intended for
students and experienced researchers alike, it presents the latest in
international ceramics research in a manner relevant to Australasian
archaeologists.
The core of the book is a glossary of terms and guide to
the identification of ware, form, and decoration. Additional chapters present
guidelines on field and laboratory methods pertaining to the processing and
cataloguing of ceramics; a review of the history of ceramics analysis in
Australia, North America, and the United Kingdom; a model for ceramics
analysis; and thoughts on the interpretive analysis of ceramics assemblages
based on economy, status, function and meaning.
The most common wares, decorations and forms found on
Australian colonial sites are illustrated in text and on an accompanying CD.
Appendices feature additional information of use in identifying British
ceramics in Australia, including a list of known British manufacturers and
their dates of operation whose materials have been recovered from Australian
sites; a ceramics time line cross-referenced to significant dates from
colonial
