Session Description (300 word max):
Over the last four decades, David Black has advanced the archaeological understanding of the Maritime Peninsula through fieldwork, research, and writing, mostly focused around the Quoddy Region. At the same time, he was a prodigious teacher, supervisor and mentor to generations of northeastern archaeologists. In this session, we celebrate David’s accomplishments on the occasion of his recent retirement with a series of research papers from his colleagues, students, and friends. We particularly invite papers with a regional focus on the Maritime Peninsula, a topical emphasis on coastal archaeology, or that engage with other of David’s interests, such as collaboration with avocational archaeologists, geoarchaeology, and zooarchaeology.
