Abstract

The Amos Spafford farmstead (33Wo50) of Port Miami in northwest Ohio disappeared from the historical record after the War of 1812. Port Miami, a Franco-American village, was the first U.S. federal customs facility established in Ohio in 1805. It was destroyed in 1812 by a British and Native American detachment led by Captain Peter Latouche Chambers (British 41st Regiment of Foot), the Shawnee leader Tecumseh, and the Wyandot leader Roundhead. Port Miami’s destruction became lost over the years to the historical memory and consciousness of Ohio. Salvage excavations of the Spafford farmstead (1810–1823) in 1977 and its history provide an archaeological window within which to view Port Miami’s obliteration and its recovery to the community heritage of the state.

神秘的废墟:从1812年被遗忘的战争中拯救斯帕福德农场

位于俄亥俄州西北部迈阿密港的Amos Spafford农场(33Wo50)在1812年战争后从历史记录中消失了。迈阿密港是一个法裔美国人的村庄，是1805年在俄亥俄州建立的第一个美国联邦海关设施。它在1812年被一支由彼得·拉图什·钱伯斯上尉(英国第41步兵团)、肖尼族首领特库姆塞和怀安多特族首领朗德海德领导的英国和美洲原住民分队摧毁。多年来，迈阿密港的破坏已经消失在俄亥俄州的历史记忆和意识中。1977年对Spafford农场(1810-1823)的抢救挖掘及其历史提供了一个考古窗口，在这个窗口中，我们可以看到迈阿密港的毁灭和它对该州社区遗产的恢复。

期刊介绍： Published quarterly, this is the only general journal dedicated solely to North America—with total coverage of archaeological activity in the United States, Canada, and Northern Mexico (excluding Mesoamerica). The North American Archaeologist surveys all aspects of prehistoric and historic archaeology within an evolutionary perspective, from Paleo-Indian studies to industrial sites. It accents the results of Resource Management and Contract Archaeology, the newest growth areas in archaeology, often neglected in other publications. The Journal regularly and reliably publishes work based on activities in state, provincial and local archaeological societies.
