Plant use and deposition at King’s Reach, a late-seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century site, Calvert County, Maryland
For the past four decades, archaeologists researching the early colonial period of the Chesapeake region have relied on data other than macrobotanical remains to discuss the agricultural practices, dietary staples, and use of plants for medicinal or ornamental purposes. Plant remains from several contexts at King’s Reach (18CV83), the site of two earthfast structures occupied circa 1689–1711, provide information about the agricultural strategies …
Comparative Paleoethnobotanical Study of the Seventeenth-Century Chesapeake
From foraging to farming
Peoples living in the Eastern Woodlands of North America domesticated a suite of small-seeded crops between five thousand and two thousand years ago, making this region one of roughly ten independent centers of domestication across the globe. In the Southern Appalachian region, foraging peoples began cultivating these native crops around thirty-five hundred years ago (during the Late Archaic period [3000-800 BCE]); by the start of the Early Woodl…
New Dates and Carbon Isotope Assays of Purported Middle Woodland Maize from the Icehouse Bottom and Edwin Harness Sites
Accelerated mass spectrometry (AMS) and carbon isotope analyses provide strong tandem methodologies used by archaeologists to evaluate and reevaluate the histories of maize use in the Midwest. In this article, we present newly obtained AMS dates and carbon isotope assays of alleged maize samples from the Icehouse Bottom (40MR23) and Edwin Harness sites (22RO33). Based on original studies, samples were thought to date to the Middle Woodland period…
Food production in the Early Woodland
Open riverbanks and disturbed floodplains are targeted by archaeologists as optimal habitats for the growth of many of the weedy indigenous seed crops in eastern North America, but there is still little evidence for garden locations in the archaeological record. This article combines macrobotanical and geoarchaeological analyses from the Birdwell site (40GN228), located on the Nolichucky River, to give insight into where cultigens were planted an…
It is the little things that count
Originally excavated in 1973, Widows Creek (1JA305) is a deeply stratified, multi-component site located on the Tennessee River in Jackson County, Alabama, with cultural deposits spanning the Early Archaic (ca. 10,000 B.P.) through the Mississippian (ca. 800 B.P.) periods. A recent study of sediment samples curated during the 1973 excavation was carried out to understand changes in the cultural and natural stratigraphy and the potential influence…
Soapstone Vessel Chronology and Function in the Southern Appalachians of Eastern Tennessee
The function and chronology of soapstone vessels in the Eastern Woodlands has been a contentious issue that deserves discussion at a more regional and subregional scale. We provide an overview of the Apple Barn site (40BT90) soapstone vessel assemblage, one of the largest Late Archaic/ Early Woodland collections in the southern Appalachians. Results from residue analysis of pollen, starch, and phytoliths on four vessel fragments reveal the proces…
Farming and Foraging at the Crossroads
The material remains of daily subsistence within Cherokee communities reflect strategies that households enacted while adapting to disruptions associated with European colonialism. Plant subsistence remains dating from the late Pre-Contact period through the end of the Revolutionary War (A.D. 1300–1783) reveal how Cherokee food producers! collectors fed their families as they navigated an increasingly uncertain landscape. Framing our analysis in …
Documenting Subsistence Change During the Pleistocene/Holocene Transition
What’s for Dinner? Investigating Food-Processing Technologies at Dust Cave, Alabama
Many models of hunter-gatherer subsistence have traditionally focused almost exclusively on what people ate. More recently, researchers have begun to ask how these ancient foods were processed and prepared prior to consumption, questions that are best answered by looking at the context in which food remains are uncovered. At the archaeological site of Dust Cave (1Lu496), excellent preservation conditions have resulted in a plethora of cooking fea…
