Midwest Archaeological Conference Occasional Papers No. 4, 2020, 1–26 1 New Perspectives from Lake Koshkonong Robert J. Jeske,1 Katherine M. Sterner,2 and Richard W. Edwards IV1, 3 1Department of Anthropology, University of Wisconsin– Milwaukee; 2Cultural Resource Management, University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee; 3Commonwealth Heritage Group, Milwaukee Historically, the Koshkonong Locality has played a pivotal role in our under- standing of Oneota archaeological culture. To this day, discussions of the topic are heavily influenced by Hall’s (1962) seminal work at Carcajou Point. Hall’s research had a profound impact on succeeding scholars (e.g., Over- street 1976), who have essentially defined Wisconsin Oneota. However, over the last few decades, ongoing research in the Koshkonong Locality and be- yond has necessitated that we modify and, in some cases, significantly alter or abandon some of our long-held assumptions about Upper Mississippi- an lifeways in the eleventh through fifteenth centuries AD. New data, new methods, and new theoretical perspectives have changed our perspective sufficiently that we now need to reconceptualize the termsOneota and Upper Mississippian to include a more nuanced discussion of identity, interregional politics, subsistence, and trade. This introduction will provide the historical and theoretical background for the subsequent articles in this volume. Keywords Oneota; Lake Koshkonong; Midwest Chronology Introduction This volume is not a conclusion of research into Oneota occupations in southern Wisconsin. In fact, it is barely an introduction. University of Wisconsin– Milwaukee (UWM) faculty and students have put in more than 20 years of research focused on a few sites in a small region and have recovered a voluminous amount of data. We have just begun to discern patterns that will need much more scrutiny and testing © Midwest Archaeological Conference Inc. 2020 2 ROBERT J. JESKE, KATHERINE STERNER, AND RICHARD W. EDWARDS IV before we can be confident that we see them clearly. This introduction has two primary purposes. The first is to provide a history of research at Oneota sites in the Koshkonong Locality. The second is to set the background context for the sites that will be discussed throughout this volume. It has long been noted that Wisconsin Oneota material culture tends to cluster at distinct geographic areas across the landscape, which have been termed localities (Overstreet 1997; Willey and Phillips 1958). For more than 80 years, Lake Kos- hkonong has been recognized as one such locality (Figure 1.1; McKern 1945). The Koshkonong Locality is unusual in its degree of isolation, separated by 70 km from other contemporaneous Oneota localities (Overstreet 1997; Schneider 2015). The sites are highly clustered along a small stretch of the northwest shore of the lake (Figure 1.2). Although it is certain that some Oneota ceramic sherds exist on archae- ological sites at other points around Lake Koshkonong, there is little evidence for other extensive Oneota occupations in the immediate region (Goldstein and Rich- ards 1991; Richards and Jeske 2002). Goldstein and Richards (1991:203) note that UWM’s large-scale systematic surveys of the region indicated that “sites of every other time period are found in relative abundance; unless there is something very unusual about Mississippian sites, it is assumed that the lack of sites in some way represents the real prehistoric distribution.” Continued regional survey over the last three decades reinforces their interpretation. An important caveat is the location of four small multicomponent sites containing some Oneota ceramics on the Yahara River, 20–30 km northwest of Lake Koshkonong (Haas et al. 2017). The nature of these sites and their relationship to the Koshkonong Locality are unclear. It is our cur- rent position that these sites represent seasonal special-purpose camps, likely related to the villages in the Koshkonong Locality, but more work is needed to definitively ascertain the relationship between the Lake Koshkonong and Yahara River sites. Even less clear has been a robustly supported interpretation of how people be- tween the eleventh and fifteenth centuries made use of the locality or how they in- teracted with their neighbors. The lack of a long-term, sustained research program at Lake Koshkonong until the twenty-first century has stunted our understanding of how the larger Oneota archaeological phenomenon relates to excavated archae- ological sites in southeastern Wisconsin. Modern Oneota research in southeastern Wisconsin lies on the foundation of Robert Hall’s (1962) seminal volume. His analysis of the ceramic assemblage from Carcajou Point established the accepted typology for eastern Wisconsin Oneota for more than 50 years—defining types such as Koshkonong Bold, Carcajou Cur- vilinear, and others. His three radiocarbon dates from the site were the first in the region. His work established a framework for Oneota origins and dispersion and provided reasoned interpretations of Oneota social organization. At Carcajou Point, Hall (1962:17–18) tentatively identified two types of domes- tic structures that he thought were similar to houses used by a number of Wiscon- sin historic tribes: one he interpreted as a “gabled bark summerhouse” and another as a possible “wigwam.” He also found

Analyzing Late Prehistoric Bison bison Remains near La Crosse, Wisconsin using Historic General Land Office Maps Andrew M. Saleh University of Wisconsin—Milwaukee, USA Abstract: This study used geographic information systems, pre- historic archaeological contexts, and historic General Land Of- fice (GLO) maps to conduct a pilot inter-site analysis involving La Crosse, Wisconsin area Oneota sites with reported Bison bi- son remains as of 2014. Scholars in and around Wisconsin con- tinually discuss the potential reasons why bison remains appear in late prehistoric contexts. This analysis continued that discus- sion with updated methods and vegetation data and provides a case study showing the strength of using historic GLO maps in conjunction with archaeological studies. This research suggests that creating your own maps in coordination with the GLO’s publicly available original surveyor data is more accurate than using the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources’ (DNR) vegetation polygon that cites the same data.

Baumann, Lucretia S. Kelly, and John E. Kelly Hosted by Department of Anthropology, Washington University Department of Anthropology, University of Missouri-St. Louis Timothy E. Baumann, Program Chair John E. Kelly and Timothy E. Baumann, Co-Organizers ISSN-0584-410X Floor Plan of the Marriott Hotel First Floor Second Floor ii Preface WELCOME TO ST. LOUIS! This joint conference of the Midwest Archaeological Conference and the Southeastern Archaeological Conference marks the second time that these two prestigious organizations have joined together. The first was ten years ago in Lexington, Kentucky and from all accounts a tremendous success. Having the two groups meet in St. Louis is a first for both groups in the 50 years that the Midwest Conference has been in existence and the 61 years that the Southeastern Archaeological Conference has met since its inaugural meeting in 1938. St. Louis hosted the first Midwestern Conference on Archaeology sponsored by the National Research Council’s Committee on State Archaeological Survey 75 years ago. Parts of the conference were broadcast across the airwaves of KMOX radio, thus reaching a larger audience. Since then St. Louis has been host to two Society for American Archaeology conferences in 1976 and 1993 as well as the Society for Historical Archaeology’s conference in 2004. When we proposed this joint conference three years ago we felt it would serve to again bring people together throughout most of the mid-continent.

This constant interaction is reflected not only in the cultural materials but also in the genetic composition of the inhabitants of this area. Despite constant interaction, cultural restrictions prevented polities from intermixing and coalescent groups under the same polity formed subgroups grounded in their own identity as a result unique histories (Harle 2010; Milner 2006).
