Human Remains From Mckinstry Mound Two
McKinstry Mound 2 is a burial mound of the Blackduck Culture located in northern Minnesota. The mound had been disturbed many years before it was excavated, complicating the interpretation ofMNI counts. Several possible methods for extracting meaningful MNI information from a disturbed site are explored. Mortuary practices included postmortem disarticulation and dejleshing, creation of openings into the occipital bone, construction of clay funera…
Laurel Culture Human Remains from Smith Mounds Three and Four
Analysis of the human remains from Smith Mounds Three and Four in northern Minnesota suggests the mounds were built around 95 BC by people of the Laurel Culture. Each episode of burial seemed to have contained the dead from a one-year interval of time. Women and subadults under the age of three were underrepresented in the mound and were presumably inte"ed elsewhere at times. Evidence of mortuary practices includes skulls with occipitals removed,…
Punctured Human Bones of the Laurel Culture from Smith Mound Four, Minnesota
Punctured human long bones have been reported at numerous midwestern sites, but none have as large a concentration as Smith Mound Four (21KC3). This northern Minnesota mound was built by the people of the Laurel culture and dates to A.D. 565. Analysis of the bones suggests that they were perforated on the basis of inherited group affiliation for purposes that did not involve marrow extraction and may have related to ideas of spirit release
