Late Woodland-Emergent Mississippian Occupation and Plant Use at the AE Harmon Site (11MS136)
The 2002 Southern Illinois University Edwardsville field school was conducted at the AE Harmon site (11MS136), located on the bluff above the American Bottom in Edwardsville, Illinois. Artifacts recovered from the plow zone indicate that the site was occupied from the Archaic through Mississippian periods. Sub-plow zone excavations revealed a prehistoric house structure and six pit features. The style of the structure, as well as artifacts recove…
Rethinking the Ramey State
Archaeologists often portray Cahokia as the center of a chiefdom. A minority view is that Cahokia was the center of a state. These competing views are considered here, and an alternative model is presented, that Cahokia might be considered the center of a theater state. This model agrees with other models that Cahokia was an economic and political center, but also emphasizes Cahokia's role as a center of ritual. In the theater state model, the po…
Animal Remains from the Carter Creek Site
The Carter Creek site (11-Md-817) was a village located at the prairie edge in west central Illinois during the early Late Woodland Weaver phase (Esarey et al. 1984). This occupation represents a frontier upland community (Green 1987, 1993). Animal remains recovered from the Carter Creek site are compared to contemporaneous samples from the region in order to test hypotheses proposed by Green (1987, 1993) and Styles (2000). It is found that the “…
White-Tailed Deer Meat and Marrow Return Rates and Their Application to Eastern Woodlands Archaeology
Zooarchaeological hypotheses concerning prehistoric transport, processing decisions, and social stratification are often tested by correlating archaeological element frequencies with indices of the economic utility of carcass parts. Such indices have not been developed for one of the largest and most important mammals in Eastern Woodlands prehistory, the white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus). We present kilocalorie (Kcal) yields and return r…
Beyond optimization
During the last two decades optimization models have often been used by archaeologists to explain animal exploitation. The employment of these models has had both successes and failures. One failure is that optimization models consider animal resource selection solely from an economic point of view. Two alternative ways of exploring animal exploitation are offered here: 1) ethnohistoric analogy and 2) a structural approach. Ethnohistoric analogy …
