  • Hello. My Name Is Julie Doucet and I'm an Archaeologist with the Louisiana Division of Archaeology. I'm Happy to Participate
    Hello. My name is Julie Doucet and I’m an archaeologist with the Louisiana Division of Archaeology. I’m happy to participate in this meeting of the Louisiana Association of Independent Schools, and thanks so much to Cathy Mills for inviting me to join her today. I’d like to share with you the educational resources available from the Louisiana Division of Archaeology to introduce archaeology into the classroom. 1 Why archaeology? Archaeology helps us learn about the past. Archaeology, and its parent field anthropology, are sciences that help us understand ourselves as humans and understand our place in this world. Part of being human is to be curious and inquisitive, which generates many questions. Archaeology is one way to find answers to some of these questions; questions like how did our world or our society get to be this way, and why do certain cultures behave the way they do. How do we learn about the past? Space science has given us a glimpse back in time to the birth of our universe, nearly 8 billion years ago. Geology helps us understand how our planet was formed, going back about 4.5 billion years ago. Paleontology focuses on the origin of life on Earth by studying the fossil remains of plants and animals. History and archaeology also study the past, with more of a focus on the human story. History deals mainly with the written record, while archaeology allows us to go further back in time, before writing. Archaeology helps us understand where, when, how and why people lived.

The current tariffs that are in place are not significant enough to make an impact.

  • Louisiana Comprehensive Wildlife Conservation Strategy
    LOUISIANA COMPREHENSIVE WILDLIFE CONSERVATION STRATEGY Louisiana Department of Wildlife & Fisheries September 2005 LOUISIANA COMPREHENSIVE WILDLIFE CONSERVATION STRATEGY FINAL DRAFT SEPT 2005 LA CWCS FINAL DRAFT SEPT 2005 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Louisiana serves as a permanent or temporary home to over 900 species of vertebrate animals and an unknown number of invertebrates. From its diverse coastal marshes to its interior pine-dominated landscapes, the state offers habitat to a variety of wildlife in numbers seldom exceeded elsewhere. These rich areas provide refuge to 24 million migrant songbirds on a typical spring day and 5 million waterfowl during an average winter. They’re home to some 200 rookeries of wading birds and seabirds, some arguably the largest in North America. Biologically diverse as it may be, many of the species and habitats critical to wildlife are declining. Through the development of the Comprehensive Wildlife Conservation Strategy (CWCS), we have reviewed the status of all wildlife species known in Louisiana, and have identified 240 species of concern that need specific conservation attention. This list of 173 vertebrates and 67 invertebrates is not limited to nongame species. Bobwhite Quail, Northern Pintail, and King Rail are examples of hunted species that are also in decline. Data indicate that the take from hunters is not the cause of this decline Alternatively, habitat loss is the true source of the decline of these species and numerous nongame species. Factors that threaten habitat also influence populations of these declining species, and these threats must be addressed in order to stop the declines. As an attempt to meet this challenge, the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) broadened its constituency base in the development of the Louisiana CWCS.

    Unit 3: Exploration and Early Colonization (Part 2) Spanish Colonial Era 1700-1821 For these notes – you write the slides with the red titles!!! Goals of the Spanish Mission System To control the borderlands Mission System Goal Goal Goal Represent Convert American Protect Borders Spanish govern- Indians there to ment there Catholicism Four types of Spanish settlements missions, presidios, towns, ranchos Spanish Settlement Four Major Types of Spanish Settlement: 1. Missions – Religious communities 2. Presidios – Military bases 3. Towns – Small villages with farmers and merchants 4. Ranchos - Ranches Mission System • Missions - Spain’s primary method of colonizing, were expected to be self-supporting. • The first missions were established in the El Paso area, then East Texas and finally in the San Antonio area. • Missions were used to convert the American Indians to the Catholic faith and make loyal subjects to Spain. Missions Missions Mission System • Presidios - To protect the missions, presidios were established. • A presidio is a military base. Soldiers in these bases were generally responsible for protecting several missions. Mission System • Towns – towns and settlements were built near the missions and colonists were brought in for colonies to grow and survive. • The first group of colonists to establish a community was the Canary Islanders in San Antonio (1730). Mission System • Ranches – ranching was more conducive to where missions and settlements were thriving (San Antonio). • Cattle were easier to raise and protect as compared to farming. Pueblo Revolt • In the late 1600’s, the Spanish began building missions just south of the Rio Grande. • They also built missions among the Pueblo Indians of New Mexico.
