Chronological Sequences in Nigerian Ceramics
The Wickliffe Mounds Project
The Wickliffe Mounds site is a Mississippian town and mound centre dated to c. AD 1100–1350. Excavations at Wickliffe Mounds from 1984–1996 have re-evaluated a 1932–1939 semi-professional project and have provided additional data over much of the remaining area of the site. The site was established c. AD 1100 as a small village clustered tightly around a central plaza. From AD 1175 to c. 1350 the Wickliffe people built two platform mounds next to…
Ceramics, Chronology, and Horizon Markers at Wickliffe Mounds
The area around the confluence of the Ohio and Mississippi rivers has become a sharp focus of discussion about late Mississippian developments. The debate largely is based on the presence or absence of artifacts thought to be protohistoric or contact period horizon markers. Late deposits at Wickliffe Mounds (15BA4) have produced two such artifacts: astragalus dice and a head-effigy pot. Close study of the ceramic sequence and associated radiocarb…
Three Thousand Years in Africa
Trade Politics and Native Polities in Iroquoia and Asante
The expansion of Western influence during and after the fifteenth century was a pervasive phenomenon. European seamen, traders, and settlers set off one of the most widespread and complex processes of cultural contact and transfer in human history. Students of acculturation are thus presented with a unique opportunity for controlled observation, that of keeping one variable-the culture of Western Europe-relatively constant while allowing others t…
Models for Pleistocene Extinction
Arguments for Paleoindian overkill of Late Pleistocene megafauna have traditionally emphasized North America with little more than token reference to other areas. Other scholars reject human causation of Pleistocene extinctions, preferring to see in climatic and environmental changes a sufficient explanation for the losses of these forms. This paper discusses the idea of overkill with reference to a computer simulation by Mosimann and Martin (197…
