	New Georgia Encyclopedia: Tomochichi (ca. 1644-1739)
		During the summer of 1739 Oglethorpe made an unprecedented journey to Coweta, deep in Indian Territory, to bolster his connections to the Lower Creeks, which resulted in a mutually favorable treaty.
		Tomochichi was unable to partake directly in Oglethorpe's negotiations; instead, he lay at home in his village fighting a serious illness.
		Tomochichi died on October 5, 1739, and while sources differ over his exact age, historians and contemporary observers generally agree that he was in his late nineties.

	Race, Ethnicity and the Archaeology of the Atlantic Slave Trade
		An alternative theoretical framework for the archaeology of ethnicity in the later historical period, based upon a contextual approach to material culture and emphasising the global context of cultural interaction, is presented.
		Archaeology has unique access to the material remains of the past landscapes and artefacts through which ethnicities were expressed and negotiated - a potential which has been investigated by American studies of the archaeology of slavery.
		In 1739 the grotto’s interior walls were spectacularly covered with exotic shells and stones, while the quarry tiles for the floor were brought from Coalbrookdale (Stembridge 1982, 17-19).

	New Georgia Encyclopedia: Archibald Campbell (1739-1791)
		Through his Georgia campaign, particularly his capture of Savannah and Augusta, Campbell achieved one of the few unqualified British successes in the American Revolution.
		Baptized at Inveraray, Argyllshire, Scotland, on August 24, 1739, Archibald Campbell was the third son of Elizabeth Fisher and James Campbell,
		He entered the British army as an engineer, and with the outbreak of the Seven Years War (1756-63), participated in 1757 in raids on the French coast, where he "proved himself an able and gallant officer." He also served in the expeditions to capture the Carribbean islands of Guadeloupe, Dominique, Martinique, St. Lucia, and Grenada.

	Do fundo do mar... Sea bottom: Holland gets its sunken treasure back
		The loss of the Rooswijk in December 1739 was a financial disaster for the Dutch East India Co. and for Holland as a whole, as well as being a catastrophe in human terms.

		Recent discoveries in New World archaeology along with new scientific methods for analyzing data have led to new ideas regarding the origin of the first peoples of the Americas and their time of arrival.
		The traditional theory held that the first Americans crossed the land bridge from Siberia to Alaska around 11,500 years ago and followed an "ice-free corridor" between two large Canadian ice sheets (the Laurentide and Cordilleran) to reach unglaciated lands to the south.

	Archaeolog: Roman Spolia at the Medieval Church of Bourg-St-Pierre, Valais CH
		It is also evident that the ground level has risen where the blocks are reused relative to the original ground plane at cemetery level in which they are now cemented, which suggests late medieval reuse when the church was modified (1739) in both size and axis of placement.
		Although there is a considerable slope gradient from a higher eastern edge to a lower western edge in the town itself, the fact that the roadway has risen 1.3 m over time relative to the cemetery suggests that the old churchyard is closer to the ancient ground level here.
		The most likely chronology of initial spolia use would be a terminus post quem between the 9th c.
