This fortnight we learned you can take the Loyalist out of the states, but maybe you canât take the states out of the Loyalist. You certainly canât take the cannon out of the dooryard. Tune in to hear Dr. David Black tell us about Sam Bliss, the well armed shopkeeper turned soldier turned well-armed Quoddy Region farmer. And itâs not just weapons, Dave will also tell you about what the Blisses ate and raised on his Island. If youâre interested in Loyalists in New Brunswick, this is an important part of the archaeological record, and our second installment of the âGreat Sitesâ series.

Itâs spooky season here on the New Brunswick Archaeology podcast. Weâre joined by Dr. Chris Wolff to talk about his research about fear as an important aspect of societies past and present. Heâll also give you a primer on the archaeology of Newfoundland and Labrador, share some of his recent work at Stock Cove, and discuss how the peopling of Newfoundland fits into a broader understanding of the colonization of North America. And thereâs even some bonus content about nuclear fallout shelters and drums!

This fortnight, the New Brunswick Archaeology Podcast makes sure you donât feel like youâre up a creek without a paddle. Your hosts, Ken and Gabe, talk about dugouts, birchbark canoes, skin boats, and portage routes in a 13000 year tour of what we know, and especially what we donât, about watercraft. We also introduce our new producer, Emanuel Akel. Finally, weâd like to fondly remember Dick Doyle, friend and archaeologist extraordinaire.

This episode, we talk to Dr. Sue Blair of the University of New Brunswick about the Jemseg Crossing Site (BkDm-14), where she led one of largest scale archaeological excavations ever undertaken in the province. The project was also a pioneering collaborative archaeology project.

Most archaeological research in North America is cultural resource management, or CRM. This type of archaeology is conducted to protect archaeological sites from development, or mitigate the effects of that development on archaeological sites/resources. Your hosts are joined by Trevor Dow of Ecofor Consulting this fortnight to talk about the good, the bad, and the ugly of CRM.

Once upon a time in a secret smokefilled hotel room in Membertou, Darryl Kelman shared some of the deepest secrets of regional archaeology with your humble hosts to share some secret documents and other arcana; there were unspeakable rights, and quite a few unspeakable wrongs, too. We canât share that with you, though. This fortnight Ken and Gabe are joined by Darryl, one of the Maritimesâ own top pocket finds, to talk about the Curse of Oak Island. Darryl shares some tips for archaeologists who want to communicate the extraordinary and real archaeology of the Maritimes without alienating people who may have discovered archaeology via pseudoscientific programming. If you liked our earlier show with Stef Halmhofer, you may enjoy this too.

This is our most immersive ep yet. Thanks to our interviewees: Julia Chebott, Tim Treen, Dawson Burnett, Emily Draiccio, Jacob Couture, Dave MacInnes, Isaac Scott, Kathy Martin, and Iulia Vuia. Weâd also like to thank Donald Soctomah, Natalie Dana-Lolar, Deirdre Whitehead, Kyle Koch, and all of our friends at the Cobscook Institute. Also thanks to all of our other guest faculty: Jerika Heinz (FIEST), Nadine Byers (Amoskeag Health), Madeleine Mcleester (Dartmouth).
