Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, an adverse effect to the site resulting from the NMRB project was mitigated through data-recovery excavations and analysis. The portion of these excavations and subsequent analysis entailing all ceramics recovered from Mississippian period features and all Mississippian period ceramics from outside feature contexts are documented in this volume and its appendices. This volume is a companion to that edited by Betzenhauser (2018), which reports all ceramics recovered from Terminal Late Woodland features and features that could be assigned no more specific a component than the Terminal Late Woodland to Mississippian span."--Abstract.

Book excerpt: "[This report] presents qualitative and quantitative data on and initial interpretations of the 3,998 features at East St. Louis that span the Lohmann to early Moorehead phases (AD 1050-1225). The results of the NMRB project lend insight into how social, religious, and political life was structured and changed through time as 'Cahokian Mississippian' waxed and waned. The insights from this project have transformed our understanding of regional culture history and the dynamic interactions that resulted in a new kind of community at the advent of the Mississippian period" -- abstract.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Case studies combine archaeological data and oral tradition to illustrate how the archaeological expression of beliefs and meanings passed down in the oral tradition may be interpreted. Explanations in Iconography: Ancient American Indian Art, Symbol, and Meaning is a significant contribution to the field of archaeology – a contribution in iconography studies that has gradually been coming into its own. Iconography is a rich and fascinating field, as applied to the complex, and heretofore enigmatic, imagery on many ancient Pre-Columbian artifacts. When viewed through the lens of early ethnographic records and American Indian oral traditions, as well as information from knowledgeable American Indian elders, it opens a world of understanding and clarity until recently unknown in the field of anthropological archaeology. It brings us closer to the people who created the artifacts and offers a glimpse into the symbols and beliefs that were important to them. Chapters cover a wide variety of artifacts and imagery from several ancient American Indian cultures. These artifacts include petroglyphs and pictographs (rock art), mounds, engraved shell cups and gorgets, burial architecture and grave furniture, pottery, copper repoussé, and other media. Ancient graphics, engravings, mounds, and all were created to deliver a message to the viewer – and many of those messages are finally coming to light. The artifacts included are from a variety of regions, mainly in the Midwest and Eastern United States. We hope that this volume will encourage others to look more deeply into the meaning behind the ancient imagery and arts and give the past a chance to be known.

Download or read book The Dash Reeves Site written by Andrew C. Fortier and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This newest addition to the American Bottom Archaeology series reports on the Dash Reeves site, an extensive Middle Woodland habitation site that represents a major floodplain village and locality for the production of stone tools. The village area consists of clusters of pits and a dense refuse heap containing hundreds of diagnostic Middle Woodlands artifacts: an extensive collection of lamellar blades and blade cores, projectile points, Hill Lake ceramics, a diversity of flake, blade, and core tools, and several exotic Hopewell-like pieces, including earspool and human figurine fragments. Inhabited between 150 A.D. and 300 A.D., during the Hill Lake phase, Dash Reeves appears to have been an important locus of interaction with peoples far to the south. The production of blades at Dash Reeves, especially those made of local colorful red and blue Ste. Genevieve cherts, possibly served as the focal point of a far-reaching blade-exchange system in the Midwest. America, the American Bottom Archaeology series documents the excavation of sites affected by the construction of Interstate Highway 270 on the Mississippi River floodplain in Illinois counties across the river from St. Louis. The series is cosponsored by the Federal Highway Administration and the Illinois Department of Transportation. Volumes on individual sites are supplemented by a summary volume on the FAI-270 Project's contribution to the culture history of the Mississippi River Valley.

Book excerpt: "This report documents excavations undertaken at the H. Brush site (11MS957), a multicomponent pre-Columbian site located in the uplands of Madison County, Illinois. [...] These excavations yielded important information regarding the Late Woodland, Terminal Late Woodland, and Mississippian occupation of the northern uplands of the American Bottom region. In particular, excavation of the Mississippian occupation, which consisted of 17 features and represented a Late Stirling phase civic node, shed light on the way social, political, and religious power [...] was generated at individual nodal sites; it also emphasized the importance of nodal sites throughout Cahokia's history and in influencing outlying populations" -- abstract.

Download or read book From Cahokia to Larson to Moundville written by A. Martin Byers and published by Univ Tennessee Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 706 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The orthodox view of the Mississippian social world hinges on the ideas that chiefdoms--dominance based hierarchical societies in the Eastern Woodlands of North America--vied for power, often violently bit at times cooperatively, through political and economic avenues. These chiefdoms represented something of a feudal state in prehistoric North America, which lasted up to the contact period with Europeans around 1500 A.D. In From Cahokia to Larson to Moundville, noted archaeologist A. Martin Byers challenges these assumptions and offers a contrasting view by deconstructing the chiefdom model and offering instead an autonomous social world that focused on spiritual renewal and sacred rituals. Byers presents his case through the archaeological record of Cahokia, Larson, and Moundville's monumental earthworks and, in doing so, reveals the Mississippian social community to be more complex, and more cooperative, than previously envisioned. A. Martin Byers, now retired, was a research associate in the Department of Anthropology at McGill University in Montreal.
