The Digital Archaeological Archive of Comparative Slavery (DAACS) is an ongoing Internet-based research and archival initiative of the Thomas Jefferson Foundation meant to advance the historical understanding of slavery and slave-based society in the United States and the Caribbean in the time before the American Civil War. The project was initially founded in 2000 with funds from the Archaeology Department of Monticello, the historical home and plantation of Thomas Jefferson and modern UNESCO World Heritage Site. The project's goals include cultivating collaboration between scholars of multiple disciplines and the sharing and open access of American slavery-related archaeological data.

  • The Digital Archaeological Archive of Comparative Slavery (DAACS) is an ongoing Internet-based research and archival initiative of the Thomas Jefferson Foundation meant to advance the historical understanding of slavery and slave-based society in the United States and the Caribbean in the time before the American Civil War. The project was initially founded in 2000 with funds from the Archaeology Department of Monticello, the historical home and plantation of Thomas Jefferson and modern UNESCO World Heritage Site. The project's goals include cultivating collaboration between scholars of multiple disciplines and the sharing and open access of American slavery-related archaeological data. In addition to organizing and conducting physical excavations of slavery-related archaeological sites throughout the Chesapeake region, the Carolinas, and the Caribbean, the project maintains a free, online, publicly available SQL database of detailed archaeological recordings from sites related to the slavery of Africans in North America and the Caribbean. The data are systematically recorded using a single set of classification and measurement protocols, enabling researchers to perform both cross-site and within-site analyses on available data. (en)
