B.A. Anthropology and Archaeology, University of Virginia M.A., Anthropology, Southern Methodist University Food Security in Ancestral Tewa Coalescent Communities: The Zooarchaeology of Sapa’owingeh in the Northern Rio Grande, New Mexico Advisor: Professor B. Sunday Eiselt Doctor of Philosophy conferred May 15, 2021 Dissertation completed May 6, 2021 Food security, the measure of access to safe and sufficient food, is a critical global issue, not just because of its effects on health, but also because of the potentially negative consequences that moderate to severe food insecurity can have on mental and social well-being. Archaeology is uniquely situated to inform and articulate with global food security studies and can contribute more by focusing on past lived experiences of social and environmental conditions and events. The experiences of and responses to those conditions, in turn, inform present day policy and humanitarian efforts to help those initiatives align with human food security needs. This study examines how residents of Sapa’owingeh, a Classic Period (A.D. 1350-1600) Tewa pueblo in the northern Rio Grande, experienced coalescence through the impacts of rapid population increase and social reorganization on animal procurement and use. Utilizing Tewa ethnographies and the recent literature on food security, I create models of social institutions and practices and employ common zooarchaeological and mean ceramic dating methods and measures to analyze faunal remains. I estimate the timing and origins of particular Tewa institutions to determine if and how they contributed to food security and community well-being v for village residents relative to the timings of environmental changes based on dendroclimatic reconstructions and changes in momentary population. Faunal patterns reveal that Tewa practices were in effect from the beginning of occupation and peaked with population in the mid-1400s. This suggests that Tewa institutions associated with the management of animals possibly were present during the founding of the village but likely were elaborated over time as population grew. Indices reveal that food security varied and was lowest during the late period, but was, on average, moderate when the population was growing, despite highly variable precipitation that would alter resource availability. Zooarchaeological patterning also reveals that Tewa hunting rules, animal management practices, and ritual institutions were most prominent during peak occupation. As the village population declined, these institutions appear to have failed or diminished, resulting in high food insecurity despite the climatic stability that is apparent in tree- ring data during this time. This patterning indicates that favorable ecological conditions are not enough to ensure community cohesion. Social and religious mechanisms also are required to ensure equitable access to food in good times and in bad. This study shows that both zooarchaeology and ethnography are effective avenues to understand food security in the past, although with limitations. It is an example of how archaeology can contribute the long-term perspective that is needed as world nations struggle to address food insecurity within the context of climate change and environmental variability. vi TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF FIGURES .........................................................................................................................x LIST OF TABLES ....................................................................................................................... xiv CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION .....................................................................................................1 Introduction ...................................................................................................................................1 Defining and Measuring Food Security ........................................................................................2 The Important Role of Institutions in Mitigating Food Stress ......................................................9 Research Questions .....................................................................................................................10 Dissertation Organization ...........................................................................................................12 Summary .....................................................................................................................................13 CHAPTER 2 THE TEWA BASIN AND FOOD SECUIRTY ......................................................15 Introduction .................................................................................................................................15 The Tewa Basin and Lower Rio Chama Valley .........................................................................17 History of Research.....................................................................................................................22 Chama Valley Culture History, Sapa’owingeh, and Tewa Origins ............................................31 Pueblo IV Coalescence and Food Security .................................................................................48 Summary .....................................................................................................................................53 CHAPTER 3 PUEBLO ETHNOGRAPHY AND TEWA FOOD SECURITY ............................55 Introduction .................................................................................................................................55 The Relevance of Ethnographic Data .........................................................................................57 Tewa Animal Uses and Meanings ..............................................................................................59 The Tewa World and Animal Management ................................................................................67 vii Summary .....................................................................................................................................93

From the rio to the sierra: An environmental history of the Middle Rio Grande Basin. General Technical Report RMRS-GTR-5. Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 440 p. Abstract Various human groups have greatly affected the processes and evolution of Middle Rio Grande Basin ecosystems, especially riparian zones, from A.D. 1540 to the present. Overgrazing, clear-cutting, irrigation farming, fire suppression, intensive hunting, and introduction of exotic plants have combined with droughts and floods to bring about environmental and associated cultural changes in the Basin. As a result of these changes, public laws were passed and agencies created to rectify or mitigate various environmental problems in the region. Although restoration and remedial programs have improved the overall “health” of Basin ecosystems, most old and new environmental problems persist.

  • Besant Beginnings at the Fincastle Site: a Late Middle Prehistoric Comparative Study on the Northern Plains
    BESANT BEGINNINGS AT THE FINCASTLE SITE: A LATE MIDDLE PREHISTORIC COMPARATIVE STUDY ON THE NORTHERN PLAINS CHRISTINE (CHRISSY) FOREMAN B.A., University of Lethbridge, 2008 A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies of the University of Lethbridge in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree MASTER OF ARTS Department of Geography University of Lethbridge LETHBRIDGE, ALBERTA, CANADA © Christine Foreman, 2010 Abstract The Fincastle Bison Kill Site (DlOx-5), located approximately 100 km east of Lethbridge, Alberta, has been radiocarbon dated to 2 500 BP. Excavations at the site yielded an extensive assemblage of lithics and faunal remains, and several unique features. The elongated point forms, along with the bone upright features, appeared similar to those found at Sonota sites within the Dakota region that dated between 1 950 BP and 1 350 BP. The relatively early date of the Fincastle Site prompted a re- investigation into the origins of the Besant Culture. The features, faunal and lithic assemblages from twenty-three Late Middle Prehistoric sites in Southern Alberta, Saskatchewan, Montana, Wyoming, and the Dakotas were analyzed and compared. The findings show that Fincastle represents an early component of the Besant Culture referred to as the Outlook Complex. This analysis also suggests a possible Middle Missouri origin of the Fincastle hunters, as well as the entire Besant Culture. iii Acknowledgments The last two years have been the most exhilarating and rewarding of my life. For this I have so many people to thank. First, I would like to thank my parents. They have been and continue to be extremely supportive of my academic and career choices, and they taught me to take pride in my work, follow my dreams and argue my opinion.

  • Diet of Breeding White-Throated and Black Swifts in Southern California
    DIET OF BREEDING WHITE-THROATED AND BLACK SWIFTS IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA ALLISON D. RUDALEVIGE, DESSlE L. A. UNDERWOOD, and CHARLES T. COLLINS, Department of BiologicalSciences, California State University,Long Beach, California 90840 (current addressof Rudalevige:Biology Department, Universityof California,Riverside, California 92521) ABSTRACT: We analyzed the diet of nestling White-throated(Aeronautes saxatalis) and Black Swifts (Cypseloidesniger) in southern California. White- throatedSwifts fed their nestlingson bolusesof insectsmore taxonomicallydiverse, on average(over 50 arthropodfamilies represented), than did BlackSwifts (seven arthropodfamilies, primarfiy ants). In some casesWhite-throated Swift boluses containedprimarily one species,while other bolusesshowed more variation.In contrast,all BlackSwift samplescontained high numbersof wingedants with few individualsof other taxa. Our resultsprovide new informationon the White-throated Swift'sdiet and supportprevious studies of the BlackSwift. Swiftsare amongthe mostaerial of birds,spending most of the day on the wing in searchof their arthropodprey. Food itemsinclude a wide array of insectsand some ballooningspiders, all gatheredaloft in the air column (Lack and Owen 1955). The food habitsof a numberof speciesof swifts have been recorded(Collins 1968, Hespenheide1975, Lack and Owen 1955, Marfn 1999, Tarburton 1986, 1993), but there is stilllittle informa- tion availablefor others, even for some speciesthat are widespreadand common.Here we providedata on the prey sizeand compositionof food broughtto nestlingsof the White-throated(Aerona u tes saxa talis) and Black (Cypseloidesniger) Swifts in southernCalifornia. The White-throatedSwift is a commonresident that nestswidely in southernCalifornia, while the Black Swift is a local summerresident, migrating south in late August (Garrettand Dunn 1981, Foersterand Collins 1990). METHODS When feedingyoung, swifts of the subfamiliesApodinae and Chaeturinae return to the nest with a bolusof food in their mouths(Collins 1998).

  • Peru: from the Cusco Andes to the Manu
    The critically endangered Royal Cinclodes - our bird-of-the-trip (all photos taken on this tour by Pete Morris) PERU: FROM THE CUSCO ANDES TO THE MANU 26 JULY – 12 AUGUST 2017 LEADERS: PETE MORRIS and GUNNAR ENGBLOM This brand new itinerary really was a tour of two halves! For the frst half of the tour we really were up on the roof of the world, exploring the Andes that surround Cusco up to altitudes in excess of 4000m. Cold clear air and fantastic snow-clad peaks were the order of the day here as we went about our task of seeking out a number of scarce, localized and seldom-seen endemics. For the second half of the tour we plunged down off of the mountains and took the long snaking Manu Road, right down to the Amazon basin. Here we traded the mountainous peaks for vistas of forest that stretched as far as the eye could see in one of the planet’s most diverse regions. Here, the temperatures rose in line with our ever growing list of sightings! In all, we amassed a grand total of 537 species of birds, including 36 which provided audio encounters only! As we all know though, it’s not necessarily the shear number of species that counts, but more the quality, and we found many high quality species. New species for the Birdquest life list included Apurimac Spinetail, Vilcabamba Thistletail, Am- pay (still to be described) and Vilcabamba Tapaculos and Apurimac Brushfnch, whilst other montane goodies included the stunning Bearded Mountaineer, White-tufted Sunbeam the critically endangered Royal Cinclodes, 1 BirdQuest Tour Report: Peru: From the Cusco Andes to The Manu 2017 www.birdquest-tours.com These wonderful Blue-headed Macaws were a brilliant highlight near to Atalaya.

Ware Macy Mensel with contributions by Nancy Akins Deborah Johnson John Johnson Mollie S. Toll Carl White Submitted by Timothy D. Maxwell Principal Investigator ARCWOLOGY NOTJ3S 99 SANTA FE 1992 NEW MEXICO " . ADMINISTRATIVE SUMMARY In November 1991, and February and March 1992, the Office of Archaeological Studies, Museum of New Mexico, conducted archaeological test excavations at eight sites along U.S. 285, several miles north of its junction with U.S. 84, in southern Rlo Arriba County, New Mexico. The project was conducted at the request of the New Mexico State Highway and Transportation Department, which plans to realign and reconstruct portions of U.S. 285 in the lower Ojo Caliente Valley. All the sites tested during this project are on privately owned land located adjacent to the present U.S. 285 right-of-way, and test excavations were conducted with the permission of the landowners. Sites investigated on this project include a single lithic artifact scatter (LA 831 lo), six lithic and ceramic artifact scatters (LA 83 107, LA 83 109, LA 831 11, LA 831 14, LA 831 18, and LA 83151), and two agricultural field complexes (LA 831 16 and LA 831 17). Dates of occupation and use range from Early to Middle Archaic through Late Archaic-Basketmaker I1 (ca. 4800 B.C.-A.D. 400), and from the Coalition and Classic periods through the early historic period (ca.

  • INTRODUCTION 1. in Explanation of His Point, Sperry Writes: 'It Is Not Just
    Notes INTRODUCTION 1. In explanation of his point, Sperry writes: 'It is not just that the poetry is taken up in isolation from the life of the poet, from the deeper logic of his career both in itself and in relation to the history of his times, although that fact is continuously disconcerting. It is further that in reducing the verse to a structure of ideas, criticism has gone far toward depriving it of all emotional reality'(14). 2. See, in particular, Federico Olivero's essays on Shelley and Ve­ nice (1909: 217-25), Shelley and Dante, Petrarch and the Italian countryside (1913: 123-76), Epipsychidion (1918: 379-92), Shelley and Turner (1935); Corrado Zacchetti's Shelley e Dante (1922); and Maria De Courten's Percy Bysshe Shelley e l'Italia (1923). A more recent, and important, work is Aurelio Zanco's monograph, Shelley e l'Italia (1945). Other studies of note are by Tirinelli (1893); Fontanarosa (1897); Bernheimer (1920); Bini (1927); and Viviani della Robbia (1936). 3. In researching this field of study, Italian critics have found Shelley to be their best spokesman. 4. A work such as Anna Benneson McMahan's With Shelley in Italy (1907) comes to mind. Hers is a more inclusive anthology than John Lehmann's Shelley in Italy (1947) but needs to be brought up to date. 5. There has been a growing recognition of the importance of the Italian element in Shelley's poetry. Significant studies in English since those of Scudder (1895: 96-114), Toynbee (1909: 214-30), Bradley (1914: 441-56) and Stawell (1914: 104-31) are those of P.
