Mining The Meaning Of Collective Memory And Imagination: The Construction Of Identity In The Puerto Rican Diaspora, Courtney Hooper

An Analysis Of The Morphological Variability Between French Ceramics From Seventeenth-Century Archaeological Sites In New France, Kevin Mock
Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Two regions that typify this distinction are Normandy and Saintonge, which also produced ceramics exported to France’s New World colonies.

In this study, Saintonge and Normandy ceramic artifacts have been examined from the seventeenth century archaeological sites of Ste. Croix Island, Champlain’s First and Second Habitation, …
