Archeological Investigations At The Laredo Cemetery Site (41wb22), Webb County, Texas, Mary Jane Mcreynolds, Laverne Herrington, Ken Rodgers

Index of Texas Archaeology: Open Access Gray Literature from the Lone Star State

Archeological involvement in the exhumation of relatively recent historic cemeteries is a new development in Texas. Traditionally, archeologists have directed their attention toward the burial practices of aboriginal peoples and have shied away from any dealings with the excavations of late nineteenth and early twentieth century cemeteries. This trend has continued despite an ever-increasing awareness of and concern with changing modes of historic and recent tombstone embellishment on the part of archeologists, cultural anthropologists and historians. In practice, tombstones have been studied sporadically but the tasks of relocation and reinterment of the physical human remains have been left to undertakers …
