Minutes of the PANYC General Membership Meeting 22 September 1993
President Anne-Marie Cantwell called the meeting to order at 7:00 PM. In Secretary Dublin's absence, Geismar
recorded meeting minutes.
Treasurer's Report Treasurer Harris reported balance of $1,381.83. Reminders may be sent to lapsed
members.
Secretary's Report Accepted
President's Renort Cantwell thanked Rothschild for procuring meeting room at Barnard after Hunter, the
planned meeting place, became unavailable at the last minute. She spoke to Landmarks regarding the issue of
a site near the Brooklyn Ferry and was assured no archaeological resources would be disturbed. The Poilloneguine house on Staten Island continues to be a problem: as reported at the last meeting, the house was
badly burned (under suspicious conditions) and owner wants to destroy remainder. Archaeology an issue. Postponed from the September Landmarks hearing, but will come up again in October. Landmarks wants.a meeting on
the waterfront; Cantwell will set one up with Geismar, Dublin, and herself. Noted that the Greenwich Village
Trust for Historic Preservation (6th Ave. & Greenwich Street) was planning a talk, 'Greenwich Village Before
Bohemia,' at 1:00 PM on October 23, with Chris Moore one of the speakers, followed by a walk guided by Alan
Newman. Also, a conference on 'Archaeology of the Hudson Valley" to be held at the New York State Museum in
Albany March 4-6, 1994. Cantwell asked Harris to report on situation downtown where Harris and Diane Dallal
were called by Landmarks to assess problem of street excavation on Reade Street within the new Commons-Burial
Ground Historic District, adjacent to the African Burial Ground. While no archaeological deposits were uncovered, the problem of overseeing sensitive city sites and the responsibility of the archaeological community
is an issue. Board's recommendation that Cantwell write a letter to Laurie Beckelman, Commissioner of Landmarks, voicing PANYC's concern and urging that procedures for handling this kind of situation be put in place
was approved.
Awards: Cantwell reminded the membership that there are now two awards, one for a student and the other for
public service. Call for nominations will go out once Public Program date is decided. Nominations for the
Public Service Award require documentation.
Burial Ground: Rothschild reported that issues dealt with by the steering committee, on which she served as
a stand-in this summer, did not involve archaeology. Document went to Congress in August $3 million allocated for memorialization. Yamin noted that a test shipment of 13 skeletons was successfully sent to Washington. Plan is for 50 skeletons to be shipped each Friday till end of October. A major welcome planned at
Howard University on the 23rd of October. Research designs continue to be an issue as does the repository
for artifactual material from the Courthouse block. Suggested a letter be sent voicing PANYC's concerns that
these artifacts ultimately come back to New York City.
Legislation: Question regarding status of proposed archaeology legislation on city property. Geismar, chair
of the committee, was unsuccessful in finding this out in time for meeting (the office of Councilwomen Kathryn Freed; who has offered to sponsor the legislation in the City Council and has put the process in motion,
was closed for the week). Geismar said she would look into the matter further.
Native American Matters: Cantwell reported a Sunrise Ceremony (8:00 AMy) for repatriation or sacred objects
planned in Central Park on October 9 (raindate October 10), sponsored by Elizabeth Sackler's group.
Rothschild highlighted a call from Indian House to boycott Crazy Horse Malt Liquor.

Laurie Beckelman, commissioner

Dear Commission Beckelman:
I am writing about serious concerns that PANYC (Professional
Archaeologists of New York City) has about the protection of the
African Burial Ground and the Commons Historic District.
This past August, Con Edison crews were performing emergency work
on Reade Street in this Historic District. This work involved
below ground activities that could have disturbed and destroyed
any human remains that may have been there.
Since the city has
no regulations in place to protect the site in such emergeancy
situations, two professional archaeologists, who happen to work
in lower Manhattan, monitored the site at the request of New York
City Landmarks Preservation Commission. They did this on a
volunteer basis out of their concern for New York's
archaeological past in general and the Burial Ground in
particular. This incident made us realize the serious need for
established procedures to protect the African Burial Ground and
the Commons Historic District in any such future emergency
situations that involve below ground work. As you know,
emergencies can and do happen 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
We understand that the city is working on protocols for
protecting the District.
We urge you include in these protocols
ways to ensure that the city will have appropriate and adequate
archaeological expertise in place and available to handle
emergencies such as the one this past summer. We will be happy to
work with the Commission in developing such protocols.
Finally, we would like to express our appreciation for the work
that the Commission has been doing not only to protect the
archaeological concerns of this Historic District but of the city
as a whole.
Sincerely yours,
Anne-Marie Cantwell, PANYC President

excavations have been of such consequence that they have have
formed the basis of doctoral dissertations, masters' theses, and
scholarly and popular articles. The results of the analyses of
the sites have added significantly to our understanding and
appreciation not only of Greenwich Village but of our city as a
whole.
We are concerned that the proposed construction work in the back
yard of this rowhouse might destroy equally important
archaelogical evidence in the form of privies, cisterns, etc. and
we ask that you consider the impact of the construction work on
any potential archaeological resources.
Thank you for your continuing support of New York City's

Expert says-cemetery dig will end.
intime for-arts center construction
By CARYL R.LUCAS
-But
The head of an archaeological team digging Up remains
from a 19th century cemetery inNewark said yesterday the
project would be completed in time for next, month's
groundbreakingof the Newersey-Perfornalng Arts Center.
Barry Greenhouse, whose consulting firm hired th
team to excavate 50 graves at the old Trinity Episcopal

be relocated and the area paved over for the NJPAO.

"My understanding is that there is a concern that the
20 percent sampling requirement isnot adequate," Greenhouse said. "IfIt were up to a few people, I'm sure they
would want 100 percent sampling"
'llowever, Greenhouse added the excavation of the
chufth cemetery off Rector Street will conclude in time for
the NJPAC groundbreaking.
The Project began in May, when workers demolished
the abandoned Military Park Hotel to clear a major portion
of the 12-acre site that isato accommodate the comnplex
.1 The Past four weeks, Greenhouse said, workers have
uncovered remains from 50 graves, and some empty grave
shafts. He added relics found include a few headstones, medallions, false teeth, a woman's hair comb, buttons, coffin
nails and glass plates.
I.Greenhouse said the 20 percent of graves to be examined by archaeologists was a "sound numbet to provide a
suficient analysis."
-
sonme of the researchers disagreed.
"You either do archaeology or you don't do archaeology. None of this In-the-middle stuff," said Michael Swan-ton, one of 10 crew chiefs at the three-quarter-acre site.
Under state and federal guidelines, the archaeologists
and anthropologists will examine other materials they uncover, with all the remnains to be returned to the church,
said Gall 1. Thompson, vice president of design and constuction for the NJPAC. Federal law requires such study at
all government construction sites to preserve articles of historic value.
Trinity, Cathedral, the church's forerunner that sold
the downtown plot to the state earlier this year, had bodies
dsinterred and moved to the city's Fairmount Cemetery in
1966 to make way for a parking lot.
Dean Petero Sabune of Trinity Episcopal Church said
the cathedral's members were buried in the cemetery from
1809 to 1897.
He said records show 100 to 250 bodies were buried
there, some in a section that was excavated in 1941 to build
church offices, an auditorium and gymnasium Remains of
about 45 bodies were moved to another cemetery at that.
time, added the church dean.
Responding to the concerns expressed by some of the'
archaeologists, Thompson said, "We are just as concerned
the remains don't be bulldozed. We have really done everything to take all perspectives into milnd:'
Thompson added, "We are absolutely committed in
meeting the state's requirements in excavating the cemetery Indoing the sampling. We also will respect the church's
wishes."
