Abstract

Booker Fish Camp project is an archaeological study applying a multi-method approach to explore the terrestrial and submerged aspects of a twentieth century fish camp in Escambia County, Florida. It explores the dichotomy of a site that is both residential and commercial, and remote yet part of a community. The duality of this land/water and residential/commercial endeavor is explored through an analysis of a large surface trash midden and viewed through the lenses of maritime cultural landscape and waterscape archaeology. The analysis provides a fascinating look at the intertwined relationship of land and water, residence and commerce, and home and community.
