STEWARD THE LAST DAY N OCTOBER 5, i960, Alfred Kroeber died in Paris in his eighty- o fifth year, ending six decades of continuous and brilliant pro- ductivity. His professional reputation was second to none, and he was warmly respected by his colleagues as the dean of anthropology. Kroeber's insatiable curiosity had not been curtailed, his scientific writing had not slackened, and his zest for living was undiminished. His last illness, resulting from, a heart condition which had been in- curred during the Second World War, came less than an hour before his death. The fullness of Kroeber's life was manifest in many ways.1 He xFor much of the personal information, I have drawn upon several unpublished manuscripts written by Kroeber in 1958 and 1959 for the Bancroft Library: "Early Anthropology at Columbia," "Teaching Staff (at California)," and the typescript of an interview. Mrs. Kroeber has rilled me in on many details of his personal life, especially before 1925 when I first knew him, and Professor Robert Heizer has helped round out the picture in many ways. Important insights into Kroeber's childhood and youth are provided by the late Dr.

  • Americanist Stratigraphic Excavation and the Measurement of Culture Change
    Journal of Archaeological Method and Theory, Vol. 6, No. 1, 1999 Americanist Stratigraphic Excavation and the Measurement of Culture Change R. Lee Lyman1 and Michael J. O'Brien1 Many versions of the history of Americanist archaeology suggest there was a "stratigraphic revolution" during the second decade of the twentieth century—the implication being that prior to about 1915 most archaeologists did not excavate stratigraphically. However, articles and reports published during the late nineteenth century and first decade of the twentieth century indicate clearly that many Americanists in fact did excavate stratigraphically. What they did not do was attempt to measure the passage of time and hence culture change. The real revolution in Americanist archaeology comprised an analytical shift from studying synchronic variation to tracking changes in frequencies of artifact types or styles—a shift pioneered by A. V. Kidder, A. L. Kroeber, Nels C. Nelson, and Leslie Spier. The temporal implications of the analytical techniques they developed—frequency seriation and percentage stratigraphy—were initially confirmed by stratigraphic excavation. Within a few decades, however, most archaeologists had begun using stratigraphic excavation as a creational strategy—that is, as a strategy aimed at recovering superposed sets of artifacts that were viewed as representing occupations and distinct cultures. The myth that there was a "stratigraphic revolution" was initiated in the writings of the innovators of frequency seriation and percentage stratigraphy. KEY WORDS: chronology; culture change; stratigraphic excavation; stratigraphic revolution. INTRODUCTION As far as we are aware, Willey (1968, p. 40) was the first historian of Americanist archaeology to use the term "stratigraphic revolution"—in quotation marks—to characterize the fieldwork of, particularly, Manuel 1Department of Anthropology, University of Missouri, Columbia, Missouri 65211.

"We contacted Smithsonian": The Wetherills at Mesa Verde DAVID HARRELL Nearly one hundred years after their involvement with what is now Mesa Verde National Park, the Wetherill family of Mancos, Colorado, remains the subject of disagreement, if not controversy. Praised by supporters as sensitive pioneers in southwestern archaeology but con­ demned by detractors as mercenary, shortsighted pothunters-even vandals-the Wetherills enjoy, or perhaps endure, an ambiguous fame. Despite this ambiguity, however, a number of complimentary tes­ timonials to the family's work have endured: testimonials both ar­ chaeological and literary. Indicative of the former are the number of artifacts obtained by the Wetherills and still on display in various mu­ seums, as well as the official acceptance of the name "Wetherill" for one of the mesas in the national park.! Of particular interest here, David Harrell is a doctoral candidate in the English Department in the University of New Mexico. He is co-editor of an anthology of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century European exploration narratives to be published by the University of New Mexico Press.

    NJS: An Interdisciplinary Journal Winter 2021 396 Misadventures in Archaeology: The Life and Career of Charles Conrad Abbott Carolyn Dillian and Charles A. Bello. University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, 2020 276 pages, 32 illustrations ISBN: 978194905705 DOI: https://doi.org/10.14713/njs.v7i1.240 Charles Conrad Abbott is remembered today--when he is remembered at all--as a marginal figure in the history of American archaeology. Abbott advocated in the second half of the nineteenth century for the now discredited and outlandish notion that there was an American Paleolithic akin to that only then recently recognized in Europe. Abbott was a dilettante whose privileged status as an educated and elite white male allowed him to espouse and promote the American Paleolithic at the highest levels of academia, despite having no formal training or education in archaeology. On the battlefield of ideas about the past, he was vanquished by the leader of a newly emerging professional class of archaeologists seated not in the halls of academia but rather in government offices: the Smithsonian Institution’s William Henry Holmes. Holmes ably demonstrated that Abbott’s “paleoliths” from his farm in New Jersey that superficially represented hand axes from Late Paleolithic France and England were, in fact, early stages in the production of stone tools. The dethronement of Abbott’s American Paleolithic--and Abbott’s status as a leader in American archaeology--is, of course, central to the fascinating and well-written biography of Abbott, Misadventures in Archaeology: The Life and Career of Charles Conrad Abbott (hereafter Misadventures), by two archaeologists with an extensive background in the archaeology of New Jersey, Drs.

The official records and correspondence of the Bureau of American Ethnology, from its founding in 1879 to its dissolution in 1965, form the central col- lection of the Archives. These records not only tell the story of the Bureau but also trace developments in every field of American anthro- pology for nearly a century. The records of.the first thirty years (1880 to 1910), when the Bureau was the undisputed center of anthropo- logical activity in the western hemisphere, are particularly critical for examining the professional development of American anthropology. From 1879 to 1906 outgoing correspondence is filed in various series of letterbooks, some according to official -- John Wesley Powell, Frank Hamilton Cushing, W.J.

FOOTNOTES FOR THE HISTORY OF ANTHROPOLOGY Putnam, Boas, and Holmes-- Establishing Anthropology at the Field Columbian Museum Donald McVicker North Central College The Chicago World's Columbian Exposition of 1893 brought Franz Boas to Chicago as chief assistant to Frederick Ward Putnam, head of the Fair's Department of Ethnology. When the Field Columbian Museum was founded at the end of the Fair, Boas remained in Chicago to work for the new Museum. Howev- er, in February of 1894 Boas "declined to work for the Museum any longer under the present terms" (FMA:Boas to Skiff 2/19/94}, and left the Museum in ·May of that year. Why Boas left the Museum, and the impact of his departure on the development of anthropology in Chicago has been a matter of speculation for decades. Nearly twenty years ago Donald Collier (1972:8} wrote It is intriguing to speculate on the course of American anthropology if Boas, who is generally considered the greatest of its founders, had remained at Field Museum and had taught at the young University of Chicago.

  • Anthropology and the Expeditionary Imaginary: an Introduction to the Volume
    Anthropology and the Expeditionary Imaginary: An Introduction to the Volume ANTHROPOLOGY AND THE EXPEDITIONARY IMAGINARY AN INTRODUCTION TO THE VOLUME Martin Thomas and Amanda Harris Anthropologists as Explorers Felix Driver opens Geography Militant (2001), his foundational study of exploration and empire, by quoting Claude Lévi-Strauss on the hubris of explorers. For the doyen of structural anthropology, explo- ration had by the twentieth century degenerated into ‘a trade’ where the object was not to discover unknown facts but to cover as much distance as possible and assemble ‘lantern-slides or motion pictures, preferably in colour, so as to fill a hall with an audience for several days in succession’.1 Driver observes that for Lévi-Strauss, ‘the calling of the anthropologist was something altogether more noble’ than that of the explorer. The former pursued a course of disciplined observa- tion while the latter disseminated ‘superficial stories’.2 The scientifi- cally trained Lévi-Strauss felt duty-bound to differentiate himself from these commercial travellers. The proposition that anthropology is antithetical to the ethos of adventurism raises questions that are investigated in the pages ahead. Why this insistence upon a dichotomy so flimsy? Why dis- count the call of adventure when it acted as a siren for countless anthropologists? To understand the concerns voiced by Lévi-Strauss, we need to acknowledge that they are more than an assertion of aca- demic superiority. The anxieties from which they stem reveal much about anthropology’s formation as a discipline; they are the residue of a complex and at times quarrelsome nexus between exploration, Expeditionary Anthropology Teamwork, Travel and the ''Science of Man'' Edited by Martin Thomas and Amanda Harris https://www.berghahnbooks.com/title/ThomasExpeditionary 2 Martin Thomas and Amanda Harris imperial expansion and the ‘science of man’.
