Title A name given to the resource Penny Subject The topic of the resource Though pennies seem common, they are an exciting find at archaeological sites! Coins often have visible dates and iconography that are invaluable to interpretation. This penny found in Harvard Yard is no exception. Despite the significant corrosion, its identifying characteristics are still visible. The obverse side features the left-facing profile of a figure wearing a Native American headdress. The reverse side features the words “ONE CENT” encircled by a wreath. These are characteristic of the “Indian Head” penny produced by the United States Mint from 1859 to 1909. Though the date is no longer visible, it must have been created during this time. This penny using Native American imagery is significant to understanding colonialism in the United States. Native American imagery has been systematically used in the United States to shape perception of the relationship between Native Americans and European settlers and their descendants (Davis-Delano et al. 2023). Here, despite being called the “Indian Head” penny, the coin features a Caucasian woman wearing the native headdress (Bullion 2015). By placing this image on the national currency, the idea that settlers have ownership over this aspect of Native American culture was widely dispersed and subsequently communicated this idea of ownership to all that it met. In doing so, the colonial goal of asserting ownership over North America was furthered, a shift in methodology decades after the Indian Removal act of 1830 in which ownership of the land was physically taken (National Museum n.d.). This coin is succeeded by a similar ten-dollar coin created in 1906 that features a Caucasian woman and later by the Native American $1 Coin Program which features Sacagawea and continues today. The former’s iconographic persistence and the latter’s iconographic break may show changes in how Native American imagery is used.

Title A name given to the resource Pewter Shank Button Subject The topic of the resource Religious and class systems are central to our understanding of the material culture of colonial adornment, and looking at this button helps us interrogate the presence of these systems at Harvard (Heath 1999). Pewter (alloyed tin with some lead, zinc, or copper) was a typical material for buttons from the 17th century until the early 19th century (Button Country 2012). This button also has part of the shank snapped off, but it was likely a cast or integral shank – a popular 17th century 2-piece mold method and the most common attachment method of this time (Button Country 2012; Hume 1970, 88; Hinks 1988, 56; Loren 2011, 52). Knowing that this button is likely 17th century fits in with understandings of sumptuary and modesty laws at Harvard and the colonies. This button is simple in design, a tear-shaped, convex, hollowed-out design in plain pewter, suggesting the influence of Puritan regulations on adornment and clothing, and the avoidance of wearing “all lavish dress of excess of apparel whatsoever” (Evans 2010, 75; Loren 2016, 144; “The Lawes and Orders of Harvard Colledge, 1655-1708”). Although it is impossible to now determine who wore this button and in what context, buttons like this would have been wider signifiers of class and social standing in colonial society, especially after the 1651 sumptuary laws were passed (Loren 2011). These laws still attempted to uphold Puritan modesty and sobriety, but they were more lenient in allowing certain adornment for certain people and “gentlemen” (Bagley 2016, 68). This button therefore could have been worn on the clothing of a lower class, less wealthy Harvard student who was still being held to the full severity of the Puritan sobriety and modesty laws.

Title A name given to the resource Piece of amber glass Subject The topic of the resource On a frigid New England winter morning, a sleepy student awoke early for another studious day of academics at the newly-founded Harvard College. A feeling of general ill fell over him as he groomed himself for the day. Attributing it to the cold weather and a bad night’s sleep, he simply carried on as normal. During morning prayers, the student fought back the urge to cough so as not to interrupt the reverent meditation. Throughout the day his cough worsened. When classes concluded, the student was glad to return to his room. Feeling the intense inflammation in his lungs, he turned to self-medication as was common in the early seventeenth century. He pulled out his copy of “Compendium of Meteria Medicae” to find a relief for his troubling symptoms. The book contained recommendations for suppressing coughs, and the student selected the one that he owned. Searching through his small collection of tiny glass bottles of varying shapes and sizes, he picked up a tiny amber bottle, clutching its wide shoulders and narrow base. Taking a sip, he grimaced at the bitter taste. The smoke given off by the candlestick illuminating his room only encouraged more coughing. The student blew it out and retired for the night, hoping a good night’s sleep would be the best medicine.

Title A name given to the resource Pipe Bowl Subject The topic of the resource Discovered within Harvard Yard, this 17th-century clay pipe bowl brings to the surface the nuances of colonial student life. Dated between 1650 and 1680, using Hume’s depictions of the evolution of pipe bowls, the pipe lies as evidence of the silent defiance practiced within the grounds of Harvard College, where tobacco was a discreetly enjoyed contraband (Hume 2001) (Loren 2022). Despite Puritan regulations condemning tobacco as a needless vice, its prevalence among the student body was unmistakable. The pipe’s English origin speaks to a time when the Atlantic was bridged by the trade of such goods, making smoking a widespread, if not an openly discussed, pastime among Harvard's youth. The archaeological record from Harvard Yard, enriched with numerous pipe fragments, suggests that smoking was a clandestine ritual that transcended social boundaries. These fragments reveal a culture of reuse and community—where pipes, likely shared among students, became artifacts of commonality in an environment stratified by class. The craftsmanship of the bowl, indicated by its refined shape and the consistency of the stem hole size, reveals a sophistication in production, pointing to well-established English techniques that had matured by the 17th century (Hume 2001). The white clay, a hallmark of such pipes, was a canvas upon which the social and cultural practices of the time were etched. This pipe bowl from Harvard Yard is not just a relic of individual use but a fragment of a broader narrative. It reflects a historical tapestry where tobacco was intertwined with notions of health, propriety, and camaraderie—a small yet significant thread in the fabric of early American history.
