Abstract

We also acknowledge our colleagues who continued the momentum of the Altoona workshop by presenting papers on farmstead site research and preservation issues at CNEHA's 1998 annual meeting in Montreal. These papers served as the impetus for this special double issue of Northeast Historical Archaeology. This issue truly represents a team effort. The authors read and commented on each other's articles and highlighted linkS between the articles in their final manuscripts. In addition, five anonymous reviewers evaluated several of the articles and offered excellent comments. Two reviewers were kind enough to read the majority of the articles, and we appreciate their time and effort. We also offer thanks to Ann-Eliza Lewis for undertaking the enormous task of copy editing all of the revised articles. Finally, special thanks go to Mary Beaudry, former editor of Northeast Historical Archaeology, for initiating this project, and to David Landon, the current editor of Northeast Historical Archaeology, for making this volume become a reality.
