Memory Shards of an Accidental Plains Archaeologist
The gist of my essay's title, Accidental Plains Archaeologist, is obviously swiped from Jesse D. Jennings' interesting memoirs (Jennings 1994). I feel free to do so, inserting the qualifier Plains, since my being an archaeologist is re ally much more accidental than in Jennings' case. The story begins in Lincoln, Nebraska, where I grew up generally unaware of my hometown's unique status in Plains anthropology. On the basis of Kuder Occupational P…

Iowa State University Archaeological Laboratory excavations at the Blosser site (13BN125) in 1969 uncovered six burial features containing artifacts that are unusual for the overall specimen inventory from the central Des Moines River Valley.

The generally successful persistence of many aspects of traditional Amish culture as islands within the mainstream of American society has been well-articulated in general studies by John Hostetler and others. It is also documented in more specific community studies, for example the work of Elmer and Dorothy Schwieder at Kalona, Iow…
Critique [of Wiesel's Memoir and God Outside Auschwitz]
It is not exactly a guarded secret that Jews, for three or four thousand years, have questioned who they were, who they are, and who they are going to be as individuals and as members of the various groups within which they associate. And through those many centuries they have often cried out in anguish and ambivalence to their God. Elie Wiesel, who writes with great power and also great agony, is certainly not the first writer to express these t…
