Nineteenth century California was a nexus point where complex flows of global capital and immigrants with different cultures and aspirations interacted with and transformed one another. Chinese immigrants participated in these events and their presence was distinctly marked on the social and economic landscape of California. This dissertation uses evidence from archaeological excavations and historical research to examine the role of material culture in the intercultural encounters that unfolded in California during this time period. This is accomplished through a focused study of a Chinese immigrant and Chinese American fishing village that was located at Point Alones in Pacific Grove, CA from approximately 1860 to 1906. Specifically, this dissertation untangles some of the social and cultural transformations that occurred in the Point Alones Village by exploring how material culture was actively deployed by Chinese and Chinese Americans living in the village as well as by their non-Chinese neighbors. It explains how both groups highlighted certain aspects of Chinese materiality culled from a more complex and ambivalent material assemblage. This process, which I have termed "selective bundling," articulates hegemonic processes such as identity formation with locally performed actions and events.

520 $a Identity claims that relate to taxonomies of race and gender were actively deployed by both Chinese and non-Chinese individuals to negotiate rights claims and police the socio-cultural boundaries of national belonging. By understanding how these identities were constructed at multiple scales in both discourse and in practice, this dissertation builds a thicker understanding of the material and rhetorical forces that shape culture change.
