The LSU Campus Mounds: New Investigations Using Synchrotron Radiation–Based Techniques
In a recent publication, Ellwood et alia (2022) presented results indicating that the LSU Campus Mounds (16EBR6) could be the oldest man-made extant structures in the Americas, that they were built in phases with a hiatus of approximately 2,000 years, and that they were used for ceremonial fires or cremations. In a subsequent publication, McGimsey et alia (2022) expressed their concerns regarding the conclusions presented in the Ellwood et alia p…
The Four Fields of Archaeology
The increase in funding associated with new legislation subsequent to the late 1960s and the introduction of Cultural Resource Management (CRM) research has changed archaeology in many ways. Not the least of these changes is the first full flowering of archaeology's four fields of endeavor (research and report writing, teaching, management, and outreach) to the extent that it is now possible for individuals to devote major portions of their caree…

The Yuchi Town Site (1RU63), Russell County, Alabama: An Assessment of the Impacts of Looting
Yuchi Town is a large, late prehistoric and historic site located in a remote area of Fort Benning, GA. The site has escaped serious impacts from development or military training, but has, in recent years, become the focus of extensive illegal looting. To collect information needed for future management efforts, Fort Benning sponsored an archaeological assessment of the site. The primary focus of this investigation was to document the nature and …

This, too, Will Pass: Moss-Bennett in Perspective
A monarch who suffered many hours of discouragement, urged his courtiers to devise a motto short enough to be engraved on a ring, which should be suitable alike in prosperity and adversity. After many suggestions had been rejected, his daughter offered an emerald bearing in inscription in Arabic 'This, too, will pass' [Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, Little, Brown and Company 1937:509

Further Data and a Date from Cerro Mangote, Panama
In the October, 1956, issue of American Antiquity (Vol. 22, No. 2) a report was made on preliminary excavations made in 1955 at Cerro Mangote, a preceramic site in Panama. During the 1956 season 6 additional weeks were spent at this site with financial assistance from the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. Briefly, the results of this more extensive work were as follows:Approximately 300 cu. m. of material were excavated, an estimated one-thi…
Cerro Mangote: A Preceramic Site in Panama
Until about 25 years ago nearly all that was known of the prehistory of Panama was the result of careful studies based on somewhat haphazard excavation (MacCurdy 1911; Holmes 1888). Almost without exception detailed and often gross provenience data were completely lacking. This unhappy situation was attacked in the late 1920s by Linné (1929). Beginning in the 1930's Lothrop succeeded in outlining and describing a number of culture areas covering …
