  • PRE-EUROPEAN CULTURAL RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN the PLAINS and SOUTHWEST REGIONS Robert Blasing Department of Anthropology Wichita S
    3 PRE-EUROPEAN CULTURAL RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN THE PLAINS AND SOUTHWEST REGIONS Robert Blasing Department of Anthropology Wichita State University Wichita, Kansas INTRODUCTION The purpose of this paper is to bring together the wide ranging bits of information concerning contact between the people living in the Plains Region and those living in the Southwest Region of North America. Although a precise boundary dividing the Southwest from the Plains cannot be drawn, the break between the subsistence patterns and major cultural trends of each area is quite evident. As Wedel (1950:106) points out, "so far as archeology is an indica­ tion, there is surprisingly little direct evidence of Pueblo in the material culture of subsistence economy of the historic Plains Tribes." Contact and influence between areas can take many forms. It could be migration of an entire population, movement of a single individual carrying cultural traits, trade, dif­ fusion brought about by simple contact and awareness of how another group does things, warfare such as conquest or raid­ ing or by competition and population pressure between groups. A major effect might also be seen through movement of an individual who transmitted one of the decimating diseases introduced by the Europeans. To identify where and to what extent any of these factors are operating is very difficult with the present state of knowledge. Again to quote Wedel (1950:100) "the area is vast! the time span long! and the available information still far too sketchy and uneven." With this in mind! the direction of this paper will not be to evaluate the exact nature of contact, but instead to show what evidence is available, and what general trends and changes over time can be identified.

In the 1860s, near Golden, Colorado was a mining town called Apex that was the last supply stop for gold miners heading for the gold fields. This area was scattered with Indian relics that were looted for decades until 1941when archeologist Cynthia Irwin-Williams dug 13’ deep block pits and recorded 6 soil levels with artifacts from 4 distinct cultures, enabling them to be dated and put in context. In 1955, Disneyland opened in California and was so successful that a Disney-inspired park was built by the Magic Mountain Company on the Apex land that was named after the original mining town.

    OAHP #1655 List of Potential Thesis/Dissertation/Capstone Subjects with State of Colorado Archaeology or Paleontology Collections Needing Re- housing Care, Re-analysis or New Interpretational Opportunities The following tables represent a non-comprehensive list of archaeological and paleontological locations organized by time periods that have been either excavated or tested under the approval of a permit issued by the State Archaeologist of Colorado under the authority of C.R.S. § 24-80-401 to 410 through 8CCR 1504-7. These sites have the potential for their associated collections to be the subject of new research, analysis, interpretation or public exhibition. The collections are housed in various State-approved repositories. Inquiries regarding a site location’s collection can be matched to a repository through an inquiry to the State Archaeologist’s Office. The artifacts/specimens from these sites may need re-housing to current collections care standards and practices. As such, these collections hold the possibly of being the subject of research/curation/educational grant funding opportunities and are therefore encouraged to be considered by students of various levels of higher educational training as the subject of thesis/dissertation or special capstone projects. For inquiries, please contact Todd McMahon, Staff Archaeologist/State Curation Coordinator at 303-866-4607 or at [email protected] History Colorado, Office of the State Archaeologist, 1200 Broadway, Denver, CO 80203 Highlighted Paleo-Indian Period (circa 14,000-8,000
