Mollusc Remains from an Archaeological Rock Shelter Site on the Buffalo National River, Arkansas, Southeastern USA
Zooarchaeological mollusc assemblages can show communities as they existed prior to any extensive modern impacts, representing an ecological baseline against which current populations can be evaluated. Here data are presented from the Pruitt Shelter sites (Late Woodland-Early Mississippian; ca. AD 700–1300), located on the Buffalo National River (Arkansas), where over 1000 freshwater mussels and over 20,000 gastropods (aquatic and terrestrial com…

The Holly Bluff style
We recognize a new style of Mississippian-period art in the North American Southeast, calling it Holly Bluff. It is a two-dimensional style of representational art that appears solely on containers: marine shell cups and ceramic vessels. Iconographically, the style focuses on the depiction of zoomorphic supernatural powers of the Beneath World. Seriating the known corpus of images allows us to characterize three successive style phases, Holly Blu…
Practicing Archaeology in the Mid-South
Most readers are probably aware that the participation of archaeologists in the Society for Applied Anthropology has historically been minimal to nonexistent. This brief article represents an attempt to rectify this situation and to discuss the role of contract archaeological research in the larger context of applied anthropology. In particular, I highlight what I see as some important issues involved in conducting contract archaeology in the 199…
