Spiritual Wellbeing of Cancer Patients: What Health-Related Factors Matter
Translation and Validation of Spiritual Well-Being Questionnaire SHALOM in Lithuanian Language, Culture and Health Care Practice
Awareness of patients' and healthy people's spiritual well-being allows for care professionals to support individual spiritual concerns in a timely and appropriate manner, performing a whole-person approach to care. To date, there have been no validated measures of spiritual well-being for use with healthy or illness-affected Lithuanian people. This paper reports the translation and validation procedures of the Spiritual Well-Being Questionnaire,…
Strandloping as a Resource-Gathering Strategy in the Cape, South African Holocene Later Stone Age: The Verloren Vlei Record
Elands Bay and adjacent coastline near the mouth of the Verloren vlei on the South African Atlantic coast offered Later Stone Age foragers a variety of marine, estuarine, and terrestrial food resources. We suggest that strandloping (beachwalking or beachcombing) by latest Holocene foragers as a regular practice constituted an important component in their repertoire of subsistence activities. Washed-up mussels, seals, birds, whales, and other rece…
Limpet Gathering Strategies in the Later Stone Age Along the Cape West Coast, South Africa
Past archaeological investigations into the impact of shellfish gathering by hunter-gatherers on shellfish stocks, particularly on shellfish size, generally have emphasized long-term change visible in stratigraphic sequences. We propose that short-term exploitation of shellfish by Later Stone Age hunter-gatherers who briefly inhabited the Dunefield Midden (DFM) campsite on the Atlantic Coast of South Africa had impacts, at time scales measured li…
Small Mammal Bones on Later Stone Age Sites from the Cape (South Africa): Consumption and Ritual Events
The Dunefield Midden site, located on the Atlantic coast of South Africa, contains abundant, well-preserved animal bones and other archaeological materials believed to reflect multiple short occupations by hunter-gatherer peoples several centuries ago. The bones of small mammals, constituting a subset of a large assemblage of vertebrate remains, present intriguing patterns with respect to spatial distributions of bones and of cutmarked bones. Pro…
Church Rosters: Is This a Viable Mechanism for Effectively Recruiting African Americans for a Community-Based Survey
In this study population, over 45% who were eligible participated. Rapport established with church representatives and congregations was critical to the sampling process. Using church rosters can be a low-cost, effective recruitment tool. However, key factors to consider when recruiting African Americans in this manner include: trust, study eligibility criteria, roster accuracy, and time, and generalizability
Site Structure and Zooarchaeology at the Boar’s Tusk Site, Wyoming
The Boar’s Tusk site is a Late Prehistoric or Protohistoric short-term probable campsite in southwestern Wyoming. Pronghorn predominates the bone assemblage. Site structure at Boar’s Tusk is compared to campsites of Efe and Ju/’ hoansi foragers of central and southern Africa. Features at Boar’s Tusk were arranged in an oval configuration like the arrangement of dwellings generally seen at Efe and Ju/’ hoansi campsites, but with much greater dista…
A vonlea Phase Winter Fare at Lost Terrace, Upper Missouri River Valley of Montana: The Vertebrate Fauna
The nearly singular subsistence reliance by Late Prehistoric hunter-gatherers in the northwestern Plains on bison (Bison bison) is well-established. In a significant departure from that subsistence adaptation, a group of Avonlea Phase people occupying a floodplain of the upper Missouri River during late winter ca. 1200 radiocarbon years before present (RCYBP) procured a large number of pronghorn (Antilocapra americana). The excavated sample conta…
The Mill Iron Site
This account of the archaeological investigations of Mill Iron, a Paleo-Indian site in southeastern Montana, explores the Goshen complex, a poorly understood late Pleistocene (ca. 11,000 BP) cultural phenomenon that falls between and is overshadowed by the better-known Clovis and Folsom cultures. Drawing on evidence assembled at Mill Iron and other scattered Goshen sites, George Frison and his team show, for the first time, the possible historica…
Ethnicity, Markets, and Migration in the Andes: At the Crossroads of History and Anthropology
Information exchange, rock art and long run economic growth in Australia
The evolution of economic order as applied to the origins of the human species and to early Australian prehistory is discussed. Rock art provides more than a possible illumination of the nature of information exchange, and its research agenda is relevant to the human revolution as a whole

A Pioneer Burial Near the Historic Bordeaux Trading Post
During archaeological excavations within the perimeter of a small Plains Indian burial ground, near the historic Bordeaux Trading Post, eastern Wyoming, the grave of a White frontiersman was found. The largestatured skeleton shows evidence of multiple gunshot wounds and other pathological conditions, as well as some well-preserved clothing and additional items which provide valuable cultural information. The skeleton contributes to a small but gr…
Royalism, Regionalism, and Rebellion in Colonial Peru, 1808-1815
NNE of the most significant themes to emerge in the works of Peruvian historians in the last decade is the insistence that the late colonial period witnessed not an intensification of the conservatism and lethargy traditionally associated with the Viceroyalty of Peru, but a growing tide of revolutionary activity, supported by Peruvians of all races, in pursuit of the goal of national independence. It was no coincidence that this argument, which r…
Silver Production in the Viceroyalty of Peru, 1776-1824
H T ISTORIANS WHO HAVE TURNED their attention to economic conditions in late colonial Peru have tended to accept, with varying degrees of emphasis, the opinion of contemporary commentators that the loss of Upper Peru to the new viceroyalty of the Rio de la Plata in 1776 and the opening of the port of Buenos Aires to direct trade with Spain in 1778 condemned the old viceroyalty to economic decline or, at best, to economic stagnation.' My own previ…
