As the SHA celebrates its fiftieth anniversary in 2017, it seems appropriate to remember and reflect on those individuals who have made significant contributions to the discipline at large and to the society in particular. The lives and careers of these key figures, as captured in the pieces reproduced in this volume, reveal a great deal about the history of historical archaeology and the SHA over the last fifty years. Indeed, the developments of the last half-century shed light on the trajectory of the discipline and society since the fourteen-member committee gathered in Dallas in January 1967. Since that time, the society they created has grown to become the primary venue, clearinghouse, and advocate for the research, protection, and preservation of historic-period archaeological resources worldwide. An understanding of what the society and its members have accomplished in its first fifty years will provide insight and inspiration as we look ahead to the next half-century.
