Place and Mobility in Shaping the Freedmen’s Community of Antioch Colony, Texas, 1870–1954
Abstract
Archaeological inquiry into the landscapes produced by free Black Americans has greatly contributed to understandings of how spatial use continued to reflect resistance to racial subjugation during the Reconstruction and Jim Crow eras. In this article, I discuss the community of Antioch Colony, a freedmen’s community located in central Texas, to consider the remaking of Black community in the rural countryside between the years of 1870 and 1954. Using oral histories, historic aerial photography, and historic maps, I examine the ways residents of Antioch Colony adapted their landscape over time to create an empowering environment suitable for their needs in the post-bellum period. Through my analysis, I find that the landscape created reinforced a sense of belonging by allowing people to freely congregate and move through space.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
