I could not have asked for a better advisor and mentor. More than that, Kandi has been a great friend, and her door has always been open to me whenever I have needed someone to talk to about work, school, or life in general. I would also like to express my deep gratitude to my committee members, Dr. Gerald F. Schroedl and Dr. Michael H. Logan for their input and assistance. Dr. Schroedl has directed me to think about how the data in this thesis fit into the larger picture, and has influenced how I have approached archaeological methods. Dr. Logan has expanded how I conceptualize plant use in human culture, emphasizing that people in the past had a familiarity with plants often beyond modern knowledge. My committee members have significantly helped shape the approach and interpretations of this research. I would like to thank the staff at the Tribal Historic Preservation Office of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians for their support, and I would also like to thank the high school students from Cherokee High School who were a part of the Cherokee field school that produced the samples used in my thesis.John McDade and Eric Kreusch of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park for permitting the archaeological excavations at Smokemont. My special thanks are extended to the staff of the Archaeological Research Laboratory. Not only did they conduct the excavations at Smokemont, but they have also played a substantial role in my archaeological training over the past three years. Dr. Elizabeth DeCorse and Mike Angst have served as v wonderful role models for the importance of engaging descendant communities and the public when conducting archaeological research. Finally, I would like to thank fellow graduate students Gaby Maldonado and Esther Rimer for being such great friends the past three years. And of course many thanks to my sister Dañell Bush, my brother Jason Purcell, and my best friends, Amy Eve and Rosemary Smith, for the limitless support they have provided me throughout my academic career. vi Abstract Smokemont (31Sw393) is a multicomponent site consisting of deposits from Archaic, Woodland, Mississippian, Cherokee, and Euro-American occupations. Located in Swain County in the Smoky Mountains in western North Carolina, two structures have been identified at Smokemont, one as a Mississippian Pisgah phase house, and the other a Contact period Qualla phase house. Beneath the Pisgah house are several Connestee period pit features. Archaeobotanical remains have been collected from Woodland, Mississippian, and Cherokee contexts. Floral analysis of Middle Woodland features indicate some horticultural activity, with wild plants remaining important but supplementary to maize agriculture during the Mississippian and Cherokee occupations. This thesis provides an analysis of the plant remains found in Woodland, Mississippian, and Cherokee features. Archaeobotanical remains from the three components are compared to examine how site function and plant use change through time at this location. Finally, activities at Smokemont will be compared to other sites in the Appalachian Summit to determine if the settlements at Smokemont share trends in plant use found throughout the region. vii Table of Contents Introduction ..................................................................................................................................... 1 The Smokemont Site (31Sw393) ................................................................................................ 3 Chapter 1 Background ................................................................................................................... 6 The Ecological Setting ................................................................................................................ 6 The Cultural Setting .................................................................................................................... 8 Relevant Archaeobotanical Research in the Blue Ridge and the Ridge and Valley Provinces 21 Sites in the Blue Ridge Province .......................................................................................... 22 Sites in the Tennessee Ridge and Valley Province ............................................................... 27 Features and Structures at Smokemont ..................................................................................... 31 Connestee Features (Features 122 and 132) ......................................................................... 31 Pisgah Structures (Structures 2 and 4) .................................................................................. 32 Qualla Structures (Structures 1 and 3) .................................................................................. 33 Chapter 2 Materials and Methods ................................................................................................. 39 Preservation and Recovery ....................................................................................................... 39 Plant Recovery Methods at Smokemont and Comparable Sites ........................................... 44 Identification ............................................................................................................................. 49 Quantitative Methods ................................................................................................................ 51 Chapter 3 Results and Discussion ................................................................................................ 58 Connestee Phase........................................................................................................................ 59 Feature 122............................................................................................................................ 59 Feature 132............................................................................................................................ 68 Discussion ............................................................................................................................. 71 Pisgah Phase.............................................................................................................................. 72 Feature 93.............................................................................................................................. 72 Feature 151............................................................................................................................ 74 Feature 157............................................................................................................................ 81 Discussion ............................................................................................................................. 83 Late Qualla Phase ..................................................................................................................... 87 Feature 87.............................................................................................................................. 87 Test Unit 5............................................................................................................................. 88 Test Unit 7............................................................................................................................. 92 Test Unit 10..........................................................................................................................

Stephen Davis, Jr. – Co-Editor North Carolina Archaeological Council Publication Number 30 2011 Available online at: http://www.rla.unc.edu/NCAC/Publications/NCAC30/index.html CHEROKEE ETHNOGENESIS IN SOUTHWESTERN NORTH CAROLINA Christopher B. Rodning Dozens of Cherokee towns dotted the river valleys of the Appalachian Summit province in southwestern North Carolina during the eighteenth century (Figure 16-1; Dickens 1967, 1978, 1979; Perdue 1998; Persico 1979; Shumate et al. 2005; Smith 1979). What developments led to the formation of these Cherokee towns? Of course, native people had been living in the Appalachian Summit for thousands of years, through the Paleoindian, Archaic, Woodland, and Mississippi periods (Dickens 1976; Keel 1976; Purrington 1983; Ward and Davis 1999). What are the archaeological correlates of Cherokee culture, when are they visible archaeologically, and what can archaeology contribute to knowledge of the origins and development of Cherokee culture in southwestern North Carolina? Archaeologists, myself included, have often focused on the characteristics of pottery and other artifacts as clues about the development of Cherokee culture, which is a valid approach, but not the only approach (Dickens 1978, 1979, 1986; Hally 1986; Riggs and Rodning 2002; Rodning 2008; Schroedl 1986a; Wilson and Rodning 2002). In this paper (see also Rodning 2009a, 2010a, 2011b), I focus on the development of Cherokee towns and townhouses. Given the significance of towns and town affiliations to Cherokee identity and landscape during the 1700s (Boulware 2011; Chambers 2010; Smith 1979), I suggest that tracing the development of towns and townhouses helps us understand Cherokee ethnogenesis, more generally.

  • Maize and Precolonial Africa∗
    Maize and Precolonial Africa∗ Jevan Cherniwchany Juan Moreno-Cruzz Alberta School of Business School of Economics University of Alberta Georgia Institute of Technology August 2017 Abstract Columbus's arrival in the New World triggered an unprecedented movement of people and crops across the Atlantic Ocean. We study an overlooked part of this Columbian Exchange: the effects of New World crops in Africa. Specifically, we test the hypothesis that the introduction of maize during the exchange increased population density and Trans-Atlantic slave exports in precolonial Africa. We find robust empirical support for these predictions. We also examine the effects of maize on economic growth and conflict, and find that it had little effect on either channel. Our results suggest that rather than stimulating development, the introduction of maize simply increased the supply of slaves from Africa during the Trans-Atlantic slave trade.

Among other things, this so-called \Columbian Exchange" led to the movement of both peoples and crops across the Atlantic Ocean.1 While most of this movement took place between Europe and the Americas, it is clear that Africa was also affected in profound ways.

  • A Lesson in Stone: Examining Patterns of Lithic Resource Use and Craft-Learning in the Minas Basin Region of Nova Scotia By
    A Lesson in Stone: Examining Patterns of Lithic Resource Use and Craft-learning in the Minas Basin Region of Nova Scotia By © Catherine L. Jalbert A thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies for partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. Department of Archaeology Memorial University of Newfoundland May 2011 St. John’s Newfoundland Abstract Examining the Late Woodland (1500-450 BP) quarry/workshop site of Davidson Cove, located in the Minas Basin region of Nova Scotia, a sample of debitage and a collection of stone implements appear to provide correlates of the novice and raw material production practices. Many researchers have hypothesized that lithic materials discovered at multiple sites within the region originated from the outcrop at Davidson Cove, however little information is available on lithic sourcing of the Minas Basin cherts. Considering the lack of archaeological knowledge concerning lithic procurement and production, patterns of resource use among the prehistoric indigenous populations in this region of Nova Scotia are established through the analysis of existing collections. By analysing the lithic materials quarried and initially reduced at the quarry/workshop with other contemporaneous assemblages from the region, an interpretation of craft-learning can be situated in the overall technological organization and subsistence strategy for the study area. ii Acknowledgements It is a pleasure to thank all those who made this thesis achievable. First and foremost, this thesis would not have been possible without the guidance and support provided by my supervisor, Dr. Michael Deal. His insight throughout the entire thesis process was invaluable. I would also like to thank Dr.

Flemming Dean, College of Arts and Sciences DeALOIA, SARA ROSE. M.S. August 2004. Environmental Studies Archaeology as Restoration Ecology: A Model from SunWatch Indian Village/ Archaeological Park (33My57)(87 pp.) Director of Thesis: Elliot Abrams This research is intended to demonstrate how SunWatch Indian Village/Archaeological Park presents possibilities for how restoration ecology and archaeology can augment and inform each other by looking at both the site and the environmental restoration at the site from an historical ecology perspective. There are two major themes of this work: first, the application of archaeological data to modern environmental issues and second, the importance of viewing landscapes as both natural and cultural phenomena which interact in a series of complex relationships throughout time. I present a comprehensive overview of the site, providing the paleothnobotanical data collected by previous researchers in order to show how such archaeological data can be used to inform restoration work. The research ends with a presentation of how SunWatch can provide a model for doing this work in other places, as well as a series of questions and criteria necessary for determining when and where it is appropriate.

  • Prehistoric and Early Historic Farming and Settlement Patterns
    Copyright © 1983 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. Prehistoric and Early Historic Farming and Settlement Patterns LYNN MARIE ALEX Our understanding of farming during the long period of human history prior to the advent of written records (prehistory) is largely attributable to the work of two types of scientists: bota- nists and archaeologists. The botanist studies the physical re- mains (seeds, seed impressions, pollen) of early plants and traces the gradual process of their domestication from the original wild forms. The archaeologist aids in the discovery of these remains through the excavation of archaeological sites and provides in- sight into the cultural context in which they were found. Through the work of these scientists, the earliest evidence of cultivation in the New World has been discovered in Mexico and Peru. Most likely, the processes that led to the domestication of plants occurred independently in each of these regions at about the same time. Many of the most common food crops in the mod- ern American diet were first domesticated by pre-Columbian New World peoples. These include vegetables such as white and sweet potatoes; maize (corn); pumpkins; squash; lima, kidney. Copyright © 1983 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved.
