Epochs ago, a tribe prophesized that foreigners would plunder and dominate their land. The prophecy also warned that if the foreign aggressors did not atone for their sins of cruelty, theft, and murder, they would suffer from great fire and destruction. After five centuries of brutal occupation, a relentless virus with mysterious origins challenges the rulers. Will the repercussions of the invisible invader force the occupiers to make amends for their atrocities, or will the rulers be forced to suffer the prophesized conflagration?
They came by boat from a starving land—and by the Underground Railroad from Southern chains—seeking refuge in a crowded, filthy corner of hell at the bottom of a great metropolis. But in the terrible July of 1863, the poor and desperate of Paradise Alley would face a new catastrophe—as flames from the war that was tearing America in two reached out to set their city on fire.
Various papers on the archaeology of conflict, including battlefield archaeology. The main focus of the volume is confinement, as expressed by a wide variety of contexts. Most obviously these include Nazi concentration camps, which are in need of credible archaeological attention (the editorial points out the dangers of the misappropriation of archaeological and scientific techniques by Holocaust deniers). Other forms of confinement are examined in papers focussing on the archaeology of island defences and siege sites, with the sieges of Leith from 1650 and of Fort William from 1646 both recently being subject to archaeological investigation. Other contributions include a study of shell holes and field defences from the battle of the Bulge (1944).
