Toys in the historical archaeological record of the Smith House (ORYA3)Kramer, Stephen Francis 17 April 2001 (has links)
Excavations performed at the historic Smith House (ORYA3) located in
Dayton, Yamhill County, Oregon, recovered a large collection of artifacts. Categories
of artifacts previously analyzed include flat glass, nails, glass containers, ceramic
hollowware and flatware, brick, bone, metal containers, illumination devices,
currency, footwear, tobacco, and lead balls, shot, and cartridge casings. A category not
analyzed was children's toys. This thesis addresses this category of artifact.
The thesis discusses the historical context of the Smith House, and examines
children, play and toys. The theoretical construct of symbolic anthropology is used to
provide a model for the process of enculturation. Detailed analysis of glass and clay
marbles and of ceramic doll and doll-related artifacts is performed. Proveniences and
associations of these artifacts are undertaken. Appendices provide for a chronology of
doll manufacturing and for a detailed description of artifacts.
Conclusions drawn from the analysis of the toys at the Smith House suggest
that a larger collection of toys and better provenience of collected materials are
necessary in order to apply the symbolic approach to toys as tools of enculturation.
Recommendations for future avenues of research are given. It is suggested that this
analysis provides a basis for future comparison with other historical archaeological
sites. / Graduation date: 2002

Peace and Security in post-Dayton Bosnia and HerzegovinaTabaković, Dženeta January 2016 (has links)
Although it has been more than twenty years since the end of the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the country is still on its path to recovery, which has been very slow and very painful. The unemployment rate is staggering high, the brain drain presents a serious issue, and the country's political system looks like anything but sustainable. The Dayton Agreement may have stopped the war, but it also created a complex political structure that does not encourage the cooperation among the three constituent peoples on the scale as it was envisioned. The aim of this work is to investigate to what extent the Dayton Agreement has solidified the constructed divisions and hatreds between the ethnic groups in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Furthermore, the thesis seeks to examine in which ways the Dayton Agreement facilities and legitimizes the political elites' quest for securitizing the ethnic identity of the respective groups. It will also try to explain the reasons behind the rapid rise of nationalism that led to the brutal war as some of these motives may still reflect the current situation in the post- Dayton period. It does so by providing a theoretical framework, which reflects the constructivist approach that will be reflected upon when examining the empirical data from post-conflict situation in Bosnia and...

The archaeology of the Smith House (ORYA3), Dayton, OregonStone, Helen Delight 11 June 1997 (has links)
Site ORYA3, the Smith House, is located in Dayton, Oregon. The archaeological
project originated because owners of this structure, listed on the National Register of
Historic Places, applied for a demolition permit. The 1859 home, first occupied by two
early Oregon pioneers, Andrew and Sarah Smith, was considered architecturally
significant, an unique example of a territorial period home. In the years since 1859, the
original building construction has not been significantly modified, nor have the grounds
been looted or substantially altered. Dr. David Brauner and the Oregon State University
Anthropology Department began an archaeological project at this location in anticipation
of the destruction, the first time in Oregon that archaeologists have excavated the interior
of a standing house.
The longevity of occupation, site taphonomy, and episodes of floor repair over the
years created a mixed context. The research direction for this thesis matches a statistical
and descriptive analysis of a sample of the material culture with information gathered from
published and unpublished archival data from the Smith house. The thesis examines
cultural material found on this site and provides a basis for comparison with other similar
archaeological sites. Dayton history is discussed, to provide a broad context within which
to interpret the archaeological data. Occupancy background on the various residents is
provided. This thesis provides a general analysis of the 10,609 artifacts and their
associated provenience. This thesis is a cautionary tale for historic archaeologists working
on domestic sites. Examination of material by room points out how little can really be said
based only on artifact presence. On this site, oral and written histories often proved to be
better sources of information than the artifacts on many subjects. / Graduation date: 1998 / Best scan available for figures. Original has a moray pattern.

A methodology for developing a preservation vegetation management strategy for a historic designed landscape : Dayton's Hills and Dale's ParkColvin, Donald A. January 1990 (has links)
Vegetation management techniques have only recently been applied to the preservation of historic designed landscapes mainly because vegetation was not previously recognized as an important component of the historic sites. An example of a lack of vegetation management planning is seen as Hills and Dales Park in Dayton, Ohio. This Olmsted Brothers site design reveals several strong levels of historic significance. Resource managers predominately deal with budget constraints and maintenance priorities which emphasize public health and safety before preservation concerns. The purpose of this study was to develop a methodology to capture the historic character of the Hills and Dales Park and subsequently translate it into a preservation vegetation management plan (PVM). This strategy may be adapted by other researchers for use on additional sites.The primary data sources used in this study originated with historic photographs and digitally captured topographical and early 1900 survey maps. The data were appraised using previous verbal site descriptions documented by (Vernon 1987, 1988), and on site field reconnaissance. Analytical models were developed based on topography, soil, slope/aspect, disturbance, and boundary edge data. Random samples were taken using a variable plot method and a ten factor basal area prism. Field data were collected and used to determine plant species composition, forest types, tree basal area, tree diameter breast height, vegetation physical condition and aesthetic composition of plant groupings. Data were synthesized into recommendations for the Hills and Dales Park vegetation management strategy. Analysis and the proposed PVM scheme were undertaken using Intergraph's Geographic Information Systems spatial modeling software.The PVM strategy for Hills and Dales Park was developed from the above methodology for evaluating vegetation on historic landscapes. Once the site was inventoried and assessed, a sustainable vegetation management strategy was proposed based on proven ecological and silvicultural techniques. This scheme's main objective was to protect the park's historic integrity, sense of place, and historic vegetation composition. / Department of Landscape Architecture
