Abstract: | The study of structures plays an important role in the global investigation of the archaeology of urban poverty. At Hungate,
the built environment is central to our analysis of this “slum” neighborhood. By piecing together the long-term details for
the construction, ownership, occupation, and adaptation of domestic structures in the form of sophisticated interdisciplinary
plot histories, we can provide depth to the development of neighborhoods which came under the scrutiny of reformers such as
Benjamin Seebohm Rowntree at the beginning of the twentieth century. |
