This individual, an adult male about 27–33 years old, had been interred in sand beneath a sandstone caprock near the top of a low ridge in a desiccated, open plains setting in Eastern Mon…

Spiritual well-being and psychological type: A study among visitors to a medieval cathedral in Wales
This study explores the theoretical and empirical connections between spiritual well-being and psychological type by drawing on Fisher's model of spiritual well-being as assessed by the Spiritual Health And Life-Orientation Measure and Francis' classification of psychological type as generated by the Francis Psychological Type Scales. Data provided by 2339 visitors to St David's Cathedral in rural west Wales demonstrated that, when the four compo…
Palliative Care Doctors Need Help with Spiritual Wellbeing
Spirituality is widely recognized as a key component of holistic care for palliative care patients. Are palliative care doctors able to include this in their role or should it be done by others? A survey of 300 palliative care doctors in Australia and New Zealand yielded a 52 per cent response rate, providing insight into their ideals, lived experiences and perceptions of help for patients, in four domains of spiritual wellbeing, assessed using t…
Investigating the importance of relating with God for school students’ spiritual well‐being
Fisher’s spiritual well‐being (SWB) questionnaires assessed students’ levels of relationship in four domains, namely with themselves, others, the environment and with a Transcendent Other (commonly called God). Students also reported the extent to which different entities helped them develop relationships in the four domains of SWB. However, emphasis here will be on the transcendental domain of SWB, i.e., relation with God. Levels of perceived he…
Small Mammal Bones on Later Stone Age Sites from the Cape (South Africa): Consumption and Ritual Events
The Dunefield Midden site, located on the Atlantic coast of South Africa, contains abundant, well-preserved animal bones and other archaeological materials believed to reflect multiple short occupations by hunter-gatherer peoples several centuries ago. The bones of small mammals, constituting a subset of a large assemblage of vertebrate remains, present intriguing patterns with respect to spatial distributions of bones and of cutmarked bones. Pro…

Comparing Levels of Spiritual Well-being in State, Catholic and Independent Schools in Victoria, Australia
This article reports on a survey completed by Chaplains, Religious Education and Student Welfare Coordinators in State, Catholic and Independent schools in Victoria. Results from this survey support the model of spiritual well-being, which was seen to be reflected in the quality of relationships that people develop with themselves, others, the environment, and with a Transcendent Other. The staff surveyed generally reported positively on current …

Site Structure and Zooarchaeology at the Boar’s Tusk Site, Wyoming
The Boar’s Tusk site is a Late Prehistoric or Protohistoric short-term probable campsite in southwestern Wyoming. Pronghorn predominates the bone assemblage. Site structure at Boar’s Tusk is compared to campsites of Efe and Ju/’ hoansi foragers of central and southern Africa. Features at Boar’s Tusk were arranged in an oval configuration like the arrangement of dwellings generally seen at Efe and Ju/’ hoansi campsites, but with much greater dista…
A vonlea Phase Winter Fare at Lost Terrace, Upper Missouri River Valley of Montana: The Vertebrate Fauna
The nearly singular subsistence reliance by Late Prehistoric hunter-gatherers in the northwestern Plains on bison (Bison bison) is well-established. In a significant departure from that subsistence adaptation, a group of Avonlea Phase people occupying a floodplain of the upper Missouri River during late winter ca. 1200 radiocarbon years before present (RCYBP) procured a large number of pronghorn (Antilocapra americana). The excavated sample conta…
The Mill Iron Site
This account of the archaeological investigations of Mill Iron, a Paleo-Indian site in southeastern Montana, explores the Goshen complex, a poorly understood late Pleistocene (ca. 11,000 BP) cultural phenomenon that falls between and is overshadowed by the better-known Clovis and Folsom cultures. Drawing on evidence assembled at Mill Iron and other scattered Goshen sites, George Frison and his team show, for the first time, the possible historica…

Ethnoarchaeology among the Efe pygmies, Zaire: Spatial organization of campsites
This paper examines the physical structure of present‐day Efe Pygmy campsites through study of the relationships between behavior patterns and their material residues. Campsites consist of five main components: the perimeter, huts, fireplaces, trash heaps, and the central open area enclosed within the arrangement of huts. Most campsite activities are performed within the perimeter, and exterior fireplaces associated with huts are the focus of a v…
A Pioneer Burial Near the Historic Bordeaux Trading Post
During archaeological excavations within the perimeter of a small Plains Indian burial ground, near the historic Bordeaux Trading Post, eastern Wyoming, the grave of a White frontiersman was found. The largestatured skeleton shows evidence of multiple gunshot wounds and other pathological conditions, as well as some well-preserved clothing and additional items which provide valuable cultural information. The skeleton contributes to a small but gr…

"Critique of Jacques A. Barbier's "The Culmination of the Bourbon Reforms, 1787-1792
Jacques Barbier argues forcefully in recent article in the HAHR that the division of the Ministry of the Indies in 1787 and the abolition of separate colonial ministries in 1790 represented not, as previous commentators have assumed, conservative reaction in Madrid against imperial reform, but the logical culmination of process of ministerial and institutional reorganization which can be traced back to the reign of Philip V.1 He suggests, moreove…
