| Recovery and Analysis of Jamestown Rediscovery South Churchyard Burials from the 1999 Field Season Douglas Owsley, Karin Bruwelheide, and Rebecca Kardash | |||
1. Introduction Two burials were excavated during the 1999 field season of the APVA’s Jamestown Rediscovery project (Burials 4 and 5). They were located within seven feet of one mailto:apva@apva.org, in parallel alignment, and 69º west of north. Douglas Owsley and Rebecca Kardash examined the burials in situ on September 9, 1999. Chip Clark documented the burials with 35 mm color slides. Following complete excavation, each set of remains was then inventoried and examined to determine the number of elements present, age, sex, ancestry and evidence of skeletal and dental pathology. Douglas Owsley, Karin Bruwelheide and Rebecca Kardash conducted the osteological analysis on June 5 and 6, 2000. |
