Introduction / Kenneth G. Kelly and Meredith D. Hardy -- French Protestants in South Carolina : the archaeology of a European ethnic minority / Ellen Shlasko -- French refugees and slave abuse in Frederick County, Maryland : Jean Payen de Boisneuf and the Vincendière family at L'Hermitage plantation / Sara Rivers-Cofield -- Commoditization of persons, places, and things during Biloxi's second tenure as capital of French colonial Louisiana / Barbara Thedy Hester -- The Moran Site (22HR511) : an early-eighteenth-century French colonial cemetery in Noveau Biloxi, Mississippi / Marie Elaine Danforth -- The greatest gathering : the Second French-Chickasaw War in the Mississippi Valley and the potential for archaeology / Ann M. Early -- Colonial and Creole diets in eighteenth-century New Orleans / Elizabeth M. Scott and Shannon Lee Dawdy -- Colonoware in western colonial Louisiana : makers and meaning / David W. Morgan and Kevin C. MacDonald -- Living on the edge : foodways and early expressions of Creole culture on the French colonial Gulf Coast frontier / Meredith D. Hardy -- La Vie Quotidienne : historical archaeological approaches to the plantation era in Guadeloupe, French West Indies / Kenneth G. Kelly -- Archaeological research at Habitation Loyola, French Guiana / Allison Bain, Réginald Auger, and Yannick Le Roux -- Commentary / John de Bry.
The French colonial presence in the southern United States and Caribbean shaped the history and development of these regions in unique ways. These case studies analyze and assess the French impact throughout this area. This innovative collection of essays brings together archaeological research on French colonial sites from Maryland, South Carolina, the Gulf Coast and Lower Mississippi Valley, the Caribbean, and French Guiana to explore the nature of French colonization. Specific contributions explore foodways, ceramics, plantations, architecture, and colonial interactions with Africans and Native Americans, all with an eye to what makes the French colonial endeavor distinct from better-known British or Spanish experience. Crosscutting the volume are such questions as, how are "French" sites different from those of other nationalities, what is the nature of French colonization, how can archaeology help identify particularly national histories in a given colonial setting, and how was French identity materialized and maintained in the New World?
