  • A Study of Moundville Copper Gorgets
    A STUDY OF MOUNDVILLE COPPER GORGETS By Jonathan J. Branch A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of a Bachelor of Arts with honors in the Department of Archaeology. 2013 Approved By: ________________________ Advisor: Vincas P. Steponaitis ________________________ Donald C. Haggis ________________________ John F. Scarry 1 ABSTRACT Jonathan J. Branch A STUDY OF MOUNDVILLE COPPER GORGETS (Under the direction of Vincas P. Steponaitis) The topic of Native American copper working during Mississippian times has been included in research into regional iconographic similarities, once interpreted as the Southeastern Ceremonial Complex, as well as investigations into the changing procurement patterns that prehistoric miners and metalsmiths employed when sourcing the metal. Beyond this research that has pointed out iconographic and chemical similarities in copper artifacts, less work has been conducted to compare manufacturing evidence on artifacts from different sites. One exception is Jon M. Leader’s research at Etowah which revealed distinct patterns of copper manufacturing, the most striking of which was the use of templates to construct certain types of ornaments. Using Dr. Leader’s research as a reference point, I conducted an investigation of Moundville’s copper gorgets to discover the manufacturing processes that went into their creation and to test the hypothesis that their similarities in design could be explained by the use of templates. After intensive study, a precise manufacturing sequence was determined for the gorgets but little evidence suggests that they were made with templates. i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I extend my gratitude to Dr.

    Woodland Period Log Tombs in the Ohio River Valley Allegra I.F. Ward Honors Thesis in the Department of Anthropology University of Michigan April 2020 1 Acknowledgements There are many people I have to thank for their help and support through the process of completing my thesis. First, I would like to thank all my friends who assisted me in various ways, such as listening to me talk about my thesis a lot and lifting me up when I felt discouraged. Most importantly, I would like to thank my dear friend, Rachel Smith, for reading every word of my thesis and generously offering crucial edits to improve my writing as a whole. I am also grateful for my family, specifically their reassurance in pursuing what I love and excitement in the path I have chosen. This thesis could not have been completed without the research I conducted at the William S. Webb Museum of Anthropology and the Ohio History Connection. I would like to thank both museums for allowing me to work with their collections and willingness to help me bring this work to completion. The information gathered from the museums’ collections was vital in the development of this project. Additionally, these visits would not have been possible without the generous donations by University of Michigan alumni to the Anthropology Department that provided me with sufficient funding to complete these research stints. I would also like to thank the University of Michigan faculty and staff who assisted me in this process. Specifically, my thesis advisor, Dr. Rob Beck, for his willingness to advise me in this project and continual guidance.

  • The Distribution of Eastern Woodlands and Historic Interface
    For the Eastern Woodlands as much as for the rest of the Americas, Columbus's landfall heralded the beginning of an era of Old and New World contact that ultimately dev- astated Native American peoples and their cultures (Cronon The Distribution of 1983; Crosby 1972; Dobyns 1983, 1993; Milanich 1992; Mil- ner 1980; Ramenohky 1987; M.Smith 1987, 1994; Thorn- Eastern Woodlands ton 1987). Despite a large body of scholarship on the post- contact period, there remains considerable uncertaintv about the magnitude, timing, and causes of profound transfor- Peoples at the Prehistoric mations in sociopolitical systems and population sizes. BY A.D. I 700, the loss of people in eastern North America was and Historic Interface so great that it was apparent to contemporary ob&wers.' A more precise understanding of postcontact changes in indigenous societies requires much work on two scales of analysis. First, fine-grained assessments of particular groups of people are essential for comparative studies of Native American responses to new political, economic, demo- graphic, and ecological settings. Examples of such work, the focus of most archaeologistsand historians, include the other chapters in this volume. Second, broader geographi- cal perspectives are also necessary, because postcontact transformations in Native American societies-cultural up- heaval, societal dissolution and realignment, and popula- tion loss and displacement-were played out across vast regions. As an initial step toward the second goal, we present three maps (Figs. 2.1-2.3) that summarize what is known from archaeological remains about the distribution of East- ern Woodlands peoples. Regions where information is plentiful are apparent, as are those where data are limited or absent.

    RAISED GROUND, RAZED STRUCTURE: CERAMIC CHRONOLOGY, OCCUPATION AND CHIEFLY AUTHORITY ON MOUND P AT MOUNDVILLE by ERIK STEVEN PORTH JOHN BLITZ, COMMITTEE CHAIR ROBERT CLOUSE JASON DeCARO KATHRYN OTHS A THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Anthropology in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2011 Copyright Erik Steven Porth 2011 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Mound P is the largest mound on the western plaza periphery at Moundville in west- central Alabama. Excavations on the western mound flank revealed at least two mound construction episodes and a large amount of modern disturbance. Excavations on the mound summit intersected a large burnt daub structure that was previously indicated by a magnetometer survey. Moundville was depopulated around A.D. 1400 and the occupation of mound summits after this time indicates that leadership positions in the region were still important. Mounds were used as symbols of authority that leaders could co-opt to legitimize their position. A ceramic chronology was developed based on the site’s type-variety system for the mound to determine the date of terminal occupation on the summit of the mound. This revealed that the mound was used lightly during the Moundville IV (A.D. 1520-1650) ceramic phase. Other artifacts from the mound suggest that the pigment complex was in use on the summit but a stone manufacturing industry was not. It is suggested that Mound P was occupied late in Moundville’s history but abandoned prior to the Protohistoric period and the Spanish intrusion into the Southeastern United States.

In the early winter of 1987, a portion of the well known Sawyer site (44RN39) in the City of Salem, Virginia, was subject to bulldozing. Members of the Archeological Society of Virginia were monitoring the site at the time, and several Native American pit features were noted after impact. Salvage excavations were initiated with notification to David Hazzard of the VDHR Threatened Sites Program. As copper artifacts were noted in the pit fill, Hazzard approached the senior author with the possibility of directing the excava- tion. With the ASV volunteers, excavations continued through December 1987 until the site was covered with 8-10' of rubble. The site proved to be protohistoric with glass beads, copper, and iron artifacts recov- ered. Ten Native American pit features were recorded with 4 being fully excavated, 3 being bisected, 2 going unexcavated, and 1 likely a large post. The artifact assemblage included a majority of Dan River series ceramics, small triangular projectile points typed as Madi- son, Clarksville, and Hamilton. Lithics were primarily of chert although quartz and chalcedony were also used. The vertebrate fauna fit well with patterns seen at similar mountain sites.
