Confirming Unilocal Residence in Native North America
Some scientists have been reluctant to cite the coded entries of the Human Relations Area Files, especially concerning marriage and residence, because the codes are largely based on normative statements rather than empirical data. In this article, HRAF assertions about postmarital residence among Crees and Mvskoke Creeks are tested against empirical databases. For Crees, 97.6 per cent of early historical first marriages were found to be patriloca…
How Many Frogs Does It Take to Leap around the Americas? Comments on Anderson and Gillam
In modeling the colonization of the Americas, Anderson and Gillam (2000) employ size estimates for vanguard forager bands that are of dubious reproductive viability in light of human incest prohibitions and variable sex ratios at birth
Evaluating Five Models of Human Colonization
Five patterns for the human colonization of unoccupied regions are tested for viability by the use of a new stochastic band simulation program, called ETHNOPOP (c), that incorporates four demographic variables: (1) sex ratio at birth, (2) distribution of sibships, (3) maternal risk of giving birth, and (4) risk of death; as well as three cultural variables: (1) marriage choice, (2) polygyny, and (3) marriage pool. It was discovered that small col…
Beta-globin gene cluster haplotypes in two North American indigenous populations
Haplotypes derived from five polymorphic restriction sites were determined in 50 Carrier-Sekani and 70 Mvskoke chromosomes, and the results were integrated with those previously obtained for 11 South American Indian populations. Eleven haplotypes were identified in the Mvskokes, while five were observed in the Carrier-Sekani. As in South American natives, haplotype 2 (+----) and 6 (-++ -+) were the most prevalent among the Mvskoke (46% and 30%, r…

A description of the traditional structure of Creek and Seminole formal names (appellations) and nicknames illuminates the forms and frequencies of names appearing on historical censuses since the seventeenth century. Personal names were permuted within the Mvskoke cultural system and were transformed into English names primarily by literation, translation and homophonization in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries

Putting Anthropology Back Together Again
Cladistic theories of human evolution, derived from biological theories of speciation, are currently being advanced to explain worldwide distributions of language, culture, and physical type. Such theories are weak and inconsistent, and inappropriate for describing evolution within the boundaries of human species. Ethnogenetic theory, based on the idea that each human society and culture is built from elements derived from two or more antecedent …

The Developmental Cycle of Cheyenne Polygyny
P OLYGYNY, WHICH IS THE MARRIAGE of a man to two or more women at the same time, has been reported for nearly all Native American societies. In all cases, however, only a small minority of men can participate in such arrangements, since the number of adult men and adult women in a human population is usually about the same. In North America, as elsewhere, polygyny is made possible by the marriage of women at a younger age than men, so that there …
La coopération scientifique américano-soviétique
In January 1989, the United States and the Soviet Union signed a new agreement on cooperation in basic scientific research. This agreement replaced an earlier one for cooperation in science and technology, which was allowed to lapse in 1982 by the United States because of the invasion of Afghanistan, the exile of Academician Sakharov, and the imposition of martial law in Poland. The two agreements differ in important ways. This article describes …

The Dialects of Cheyenne Kinship
The kinship practices of the Cheyenne Indians, as they have developed from 1838 to the present, help inform two current issues in kinship studies. First, Cheyenne kinship provides yet another example of the fit, or lack thereof, between biological and social relationships, the issue of genealogical constraint (Hirschfeld 1986:218). Second, the Cheyenne case calls renewed attention to the importance of variability in kin term usage (Spoehr 1947; H…
Cheyenne Political History, 1820-1894
Ethnographic descriptions of traditional Cheyenne politics written in the twentieth century are inconsistent with historical accounts written by Cheyennes and others who actually observed the events of the nineteenth century. To explain Cheyenne political events properly, the classic ethnographic picture of a stable and integrated system dominated by Council Chiefs must be rejected in favor of a dualistic model which shows uterine forces (Council…
The Culture Concept as Ideology
Anthropology's culture concept is intimately related to theories of instinct in biology. The ideological function of both concepts is to preserve traditional Christian-Cartesian views about human uniqueness. L. H. Morgan differed from the Boasians both in arguing against "instinct" and in refusing to use the culture concept. The Boasians used the culture concept as an ideological device to discredit the Morganian Washington school and to establis…

Cheyenne names and cosmology
Cheyenne personal names reflect the structure of formal cosmology, both in the kinds of names selected and their frequency of appearance. A quantitative and statistical analysis of the 1880 U.S. Census shows a congruence between ethnobiology and the sex and ages of name-bearers and confirms ethnographic assertions about naming and name changing from 1810 to the present.

An Ethnohistorical Perspective on Cheyenne Demography
Administrative censuses of the Southern Cheyenne Indians from 1880,1891, and 1900 permit family reconstitution, identification of residence groups, and comparisons of fertility between monogamous and polygynous women, when the records are approached by ethnohistori cal methods. This approach includes an awareness of the aboriginal adoption practices, kinship system, and naming practices. It is argued that the biases and distortions of administrat…

The Mind of Lewis H. Morgan [and Comments and Reply]
A careful restudy of Morgan's writings (including unpublished manuscripts) has led to several rather obvious conclusions that would be not be starling were it not for the fact that scholarly writings since Engels about Morgan's personality and thought have presented such polarized contentions. (1) Morgan was not a "functionalist"-determinist, thus neither materialist nor idealist. (2) He was neither pro- nor anti-Darwinist and never addressed him…

The Exploitation of Women in Evolutionary Perspective
In the previous issue of Critique of Anthropology, I tried to lay a philosophical and theoretical foundation for a scientific analysis of social evolution.Essentially, I suggested an empirical approach to Marxist anthropology, and I urged the application of criteria of radical materialism in the evaluation of our most prominent concepts and theories.In particular, I criticized certain libertarian notions among Marxists, especially Engels and Hind…

Le changement technique et les «Agency costs»
Technological Change and Agency Costs. A Growing Dilemma for Soviet Central Planners. Growth rates in the Soviet economy have slowed significantly in recent years. It appears that input growth rates cannot be increased substantially, so the burden of reversing the retardation falls, in large measure, on technological change. Yet the Soviet economic system is notoriously weak in generating and diffusing improved technology. These weaknesses are we…
Evolution And Historical Reductionism
In response to Hoebel's criticism (1980) of the use of a dialectical model to interpret Cheyenne history, this article examines Hoebel's own views on kinship, politics, and social change. It is argued that Hoebel confuses descent with residence, and is committed to a methodology which necessarily gives inconclusive results. Most importantly, it is argued that Hoebel's theoretical perspective, characterized as “historical reductionism,” imposes a …

The Ornithology of Cheyenne Religionists
Three kinds of Cheyenne religionists—priests, "war doctors," and healers—have had specialized knowledge about the significance of birds in Cheyenne culture. The apprenticeships of these religionists have allowed the continual reinterpretation of birds as religious symbols and the inauguration of new ornithological information. Historically, two important periods for the introduction of new birds into Cheyenne taxonomy and ritual were in the early…
