  • Local and “Global” Perspectives on the Middle Woodland Southeast
    Archived version from NCDOCKS Institutional Repository http://libres.uncg.edu/ir/asu/ Local and ‘‘Global’’ Perspectives on the Middle Woodland Southeast By: Alice P. Wright Abstract During the Middle Woodland period, from 200 BC to AD 600, south-eastern societies erected monuments, interacted widely, and produced some of the most striking material culture of the pre-Columbian era, but these developments are often overshadowed by the contemporaneous florescence of Hopewell culture in Ohio. I argue that the demonstrable material links between the Middle Woodland Southeast and Midwest demand that we cease to analyze these regional archaeological records in isolation and adopt multiscalar perspectives on the social fields that emerged from and impacted local Middle Woodland societies. In synthesizing recent research on Middle Woodland settlement, monumentality, interaction, and social organization, I make explicit comparisons between the Middle Woodland Southeast and Ohio Hopewell, revealing both commonalities and contrasts. New methodological approaches in the Southeast, including geophysical survey techniques, Bayesian chronological modeling, and high-resolution provenance analyses, promise to further elucidate site-specific histories and intersite connectivity. By implementing theoretical frameworks that simultaneously consider these local and global dimensions of Middle Woodland sociality, we may establish the southeastern Middle Woodland period as an archaeological context capable of elucidating the deep history of the Eastern Woodlands

    HUMAN BIOLOGICAL VARIATION AND BIOLOGICAL DISTANCE IN PRE-CONTACT FLORIDA: A MORPHOMETRIC EXAMINATION OF BIOLOGICAL AND CULTURAL CONTINUITY AND CHANGE By MARANDA ALMY KLES A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2013 1 © 2013 Maranda Almy Kles 2 To the two people in my life who made this possible: my husband, Joseph Kles, and my mother, Marion Almy. 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This dissertation would not have been possible without the support and guidance of many people, probably more than I list here. Firstly I would like to acknowledge my co-chairs Dr. Michael Warren and Dr. John Krigbaum who have helped me become the biological anthropologist I am through their mentorship from my undergraduate years onward. Also, many thanks to Dr. Kenneth Sassaman for piquing my interest in anthropology in his General Anthropology course and second for helping me go from the daughter of an archaeologist to a biological anthropologist who better understands the complexities of the archaeological record. Secondly, I want to acknowledge the people who have provided insight and input on my research. Dr. George Luer, his input and support have helped me immensely. I appreciate the invaluable information provided by Donna Ruhl, Louis Tesar, Dr. Robert Austin, and Dr. David Dickel about sites and collections. Dr. Jerald Milanich, who has been a mentor in various ways and who showed me many years ago that you can blend archaeology, history, and biological anthropology. I am also indebted to Katie Miyar for traveling with me to collections, allowing me to stay in her house while working, and providing me with a supportive ear through this process.

    UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA LABORATORY OF ARCHAEOLOGY SERIES REPORT NUMBER 36 WOODLAND PERIOD ARCHAEOLOGY OF THE GEORGIA COASTAL PLAIN KARL T. STEINEN DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY AND ANTHROPOLOGY WEST GEORGIA COLLl;GE ATHENS GEORGIA ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESEARCH DESIGN PAPER NO. 12 1995 University' of Georgia Laboratory of Archaeology Series Report No. 36 Georgia Archaeological Research Design Paper No. 12 WOODLAND PERIOD ARCHAEOWGY OF THE GEORGIA COASTAL PLAIN By Karl T. Steinen Department of Sociology and Anthropology West Georgia College December, 1995 · 1 Preface This report was initiated in the Fall of 1993 and completed in the Spring of 1994. I have tried to use as wide a range of published and unpublished sources as possible. No attempt was made to complete an overview of all of the differing interpretations of the Woodland Period on the Georgia Coastal Plain that have been presented. Such a summary is outside of the scope of this report. However, I have tried to present discussions of the data, much of it incompletely reported, to allow the reader to understand what are the larger and more pressing questions concerning the Woodland. Details can be found in the individual reports and publications that are cited. When I began writing this report I envisioned developing a more detailed description of materials and culture. Mter a short period of research I realized that much of what has been written in the past, including my own work, is very impressionistic and speculative in nature. We really know very little about how people actually lived during this nearly 2,000 year period. Aside from the Chattahoochee River drainage and part of the Flint we know little beyond incompletely reported ceramic collections.
