Who: Adam R. Heinrich

What: Archaeology at the Restore Lippincott Homestead Site (28-Bu-921), Burlington County, New Jersey

When Restore Lippincott, a very prominent New Jersey Quaker leader, died in 1741, he passed two enslaved people on to a son. The complex documentary history reveals the family engaged in owning black and Native American laborers as well as hiring indentured and seasonal labor. In 2018, excavations at the Restore Lippincott Homestead site (28-Bu-921) examined an out-building that served as a quarters for these laborers until it burned in the 1720s. The building contained subfloor deposits along with a sub-floor pit containing a range of faunal remains, tobacco pipes, lithic scrapers, a grinding stone, and sewing equipment representing their work and culture.

ASNJ Online Speaker Series: Presentation on Saturday May 16, 2020

UPDATE

For those of you who missed Richard Veit's wonderful presentation "Fever!: The History and Archaeology of the Philadelphia Lazaretto, Quarantine Hospital and Precursor to Ellis Island", in which he discussed the archaeology and history of Philadelphia's Lazaretto, used to quarantine Philadelphians and visitors who contracted the Yellow Fever during the late 18th century through the 19th century, you can now watch it below.

Who: Dr. Richard Veit, Monmouth University, Department of History and Anthropology (Presenter)

What: Fever!: The History and Archaeology of the Philadelphia Lazaretto, Quarantine Hospital and Precursor to Ellis Island

Join the ASNJ next Saturday (May 16) for our Online Speaker Series on Zoom. Presenter Dr. Richard Veit will discuss the History and Archaeology of the Philadelphia Lazaretto!

The Philadelphia Lazaretto, located on the Delaware River in Essington, Pennsylvania, is the oldest surviving lazaretto or quarantine station in North America.  A precursor to Ellis Island, it welcomed new immigrants to Philadelphia for over a century.  It also is a physical reminder of the horrific impact that yellow fever, an acute viral disease spread by the Aedis Aegypti mosquito, had on society in early America. Construction of the grand Georgian edifice began in 1799, in response to the Yellow Fever Epidemic of 1793.  That epidemic killed 5,000 of Philadelphia's inhabitants; nearly ten percent of the city's population.  The Lazaretto was one of several public health initiatives undertaken by the Philadelphia city government in an attempt to prevent further outbreaks of disease.  In 2015, Monmouth University began a long-term archaeological investigation of the site.  Fieldwork is providing new information about the physical layout of the Lazaretto complex and has identified artifact deposits with the potential to provide new information about the lives of the individuals who lived and worked at the site. The Lazaretto is a powerful reminder of how human relationships with other living things, in this case, mosquitoes and the viruses they carry, have shaped and continue to shape society.
