This thesis examines domestic life on Fort Boise, Idaho, in the American West during the latter half of the nineteenth century. One of the principal objectives of the thesis is to explore the archaeology of childhood on a military fort. The contributions by children to, and alteration of, the archaeological record (as well as their individual actions) will be described as they relate to recovered assemblages. In addition, the domestic activities of enlisted men, officers, and women will be examined using the historic documents and archaeological record.
