Site 8ES1340 is located in downtown Pensacola, Florida, and represents a landscape that functioned as a jail site from the British occupation through the antebellum period. This thesis was designed to use a curational research approach to reanalyze archaeologically produced data to place the site within Pensacola’s colonial and antebellum periods and define its multi-jail function. Through the curational research approach, the cultural materials associated with the 1986 investigation of the site were organized and reprocessed to restore the utility of the collection for contextual reconstruction and broad intrasite analysis. The results confirmed the presence of colonial and antebellum cultural components at the site and the functional life-spans of the two respective jail episodes.
