Cultural Contexts
3.0 CULTURAL CONTEXTS 3.0 CULTURAL CONTEXTS 3.1 PRE-COLONIAL PERIOD OVERVIEW The following brief, general discussion provides an outline of the prehistoric cultural record of the Delmarva Peninsula as it is currently understood (e.g., Custer 1984a, 1986a, 1987, 1989, 1994; Thomas et al. 1975). The prehistoric archeological record of the Delmarva Peninsula can be divided into five major periods: • the Paleoindian Period (circa 14,000 - 8,500 yrs. BP); • the Archaic Period (8,500 - 5,000 yrs. BP); • the Woodland I Period (5,000 - 1,000 yrs. BP); • the Woodland IT Period (1,000 - 350 yrs. BP; and • the Contact Period (A.D. 1650 - A.D. 1700). 3.1.1 PALEOINDlAN PERIOD Native Americans first inhabited Delaware sometime after 14,000 yrs. BP, based on dates from Paleoindian period sites in the eastern United States (Custer 1989:81-86). It is believed that small family groups of Paleoindians lived a wandering existence, hunting in the shifting woodland and grassland mosaic of the time. Game animals may have included musk ox, caribou, moose, and the extinct mastodon; however, modem game animals, such as white-tailed deer, were also present in the region (Custer 1989:95-98). Skeletal evidence of extinct megafauna (mastodon, mammoth) and large northern mammals (e.g., moose, caribou) has been recovered from the drowned continental shelves of the Middle Atlantic region (Emory 1966; Emory and Edwards 1966; Edwards and Merrill 1977). The Paleoindian stone tool kit was designed for hunting and processing animals. Wild plant foods supplemented the diet. Distinctive "fluted" points, characteristic of the early Paleoindian period, show a preference for high quality stone (Custer 1984b). -

The Delaware Floodplain
The Delaware Floodplain Final Draft Report September 2011 prepared by: Gerald J. Kauffman Andrew R. Homsey Water Resources Agency Institute for Public Administration School of Public Policy & Administration College of Arts & Sciences University of Delaware - www.ipa.udel.edu serving the public good, shaping tomorrow’s leaders Introduction Situated on the Delmarva Peninsula between the Delaware Bay and Chesapeake Bay, Delaware is the lowest state in the United States, with a mean elevation of just 60 feet above sea level. Vulnerable to flooding from rising sea levels and ocean-fueled tropical storm systems, coastal Delaware is one of only three states located on a peninsula. Delaware floods originate along the hilly, rocky Piedmont streams in northern New Castle County and from the tidal bay and Atlantic Ocean. The 100-year Floodplain More than 331 square miles, or 17 percent of Delaware’s landmass, lie within a mapped 100-year floodplain. The distribution of floodplains in the three Delaware counties is similar, ranging from 16 percent to 18 percent of the land. Table 1. Area of the 100-year Floodplain in Delaware County 100-year Floodplain (sq mi) Portion of County Landmass New Castle 67 16% Kent 94 16% Sussex 170 18% Road Miles in Floodplain Approximately 621 road miles are in the 100-year floodplain in Delaware. New Castle, Kent, and Sussex Counties contain 128, 75, and 418 road miles in the 100-year floodplain, respectively. Watersheds with the largest mileage of floodplain roads include the Christina River in New Castle County (44 miles), Murderkill in Kent County (16 miles), and Indian River Bay (106 miles). -
