Dating Methods and Techniques at the John Hallowes Site (44WM6): A Seventeenth Century Example
by Lauren K. McMillian, D. Brad Hatch and Barbara J. Heath

The John Hallowes site (44WM6) in Westmoreland County, Virginia, was excavated between July 1968 and August 1969. No report of the excavations was completed at that time, although an article summarizing the findings was published in Historical Archaeology in 1971, dating the site’s occupation to the period from the 1680s to 1716. From 2010 to 2012, a systematic reanalysis of the site, features, history, and artifacts was conducted by archaeologists at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
