Origins of the Iroquois League: Narratives, Symbols, and Archaeology
Spiritual Transformation as Reflected in Late Prehistoric Human Effigy Pipes from Western New York
Chemical Analysis of 17th‐century Red Glass Trade Beads from Northeastern North America and Amsterdam
Seventeenth‐century opaque red (redwood) glass trade beads of different shapes and sizes were made of mixed alkali (mainly soda)–lime glasses and were coloured with Cu, presumably as cuprous oxide or as finely dispersed elemental Cu. During the early 17th century, beads of all shapes were opacified with Sn; cored beads, with uncoloured cores and hence lower Cu levels, also tended to have slightly lower Sn contents than uncored beads. By the mid‐1…
A New Approach to Dating the League of the Iroquois
When did the League of the Five Nations Iroquois originate? This study presents a new approach to answering this age-old question. Compositional data were collected on ceramics (pottery and smoking pipes) from Seneca and Mohawk sites in an attempt to identify and reconstruct exchange and interaction patterns between these two widely separated League members. X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and particle-induced X-ray emission (PIXE) spectrometry were emp…
