2004 Midwest Archaeological Conference Program
Southeastern Archaeological Conference Bulletin 47 2004 Program and Abstracts of the Fiftieth Midwest Archaeological Conference and the Sixty-First Southeastern Archaeological Conference October 20 – 23, 2004 St. Louis Marriott Pavilion Downtown St. Louis, Missouri Edited by Timothy E. Baumann, Lucretia S. Kelly, and John E. Kelly Hosted by Department of Anthropology, Washington University Department of Anthropology, University of Missouri-St. Louis Timothy E. Baumann, Program Chair John E. Kelly and Timothy E. Baumann, Co-Organizers ISSN-0584-410X Floor Plan of the Marriott Hotel First Floor Second Floor ii Preface WELCOME TO ST. LOUIS! This joint conference of the Midwest Archaeological Conference and the Southeastern Archaeological Conference marks the second time that these two prestigious organizations have joined together. The first was ten years ago in Lexington, Kentucky and from all accounts a tremendous success. Having the two groups meet in St. Louis is a first for both groups in the 50 years that the Midwest Conference has been in existence and the 61 years that the Southeastern Archaeological Conference has met since its inaugural meeting in 1938. St. Louis hosted the first Midwestern Conference on Archaeology sponsored by the National Research Council’s Committee on State Archaeological Survey 75 years ago. Parts of the conference were broadcast across the airwaves of KMOX radio, thus reaching a larger audience. Since then St. Louis has been host to two Society for American Archaeology conferences in 1976 and 1993 as well as the Society for Historical Archaeology’s conference in 2004. When we proposed this joint conference three years ago we felt it would serve to again bring people together throughout most of the mid-continent. -

Human Adaptation in the Ozark and Ouachita Mountains by George Sabo III, Ann M. Early, Jerome C. Rose, Barbara A. Burnett, Louis Vogele, Jr., and James P. Harcourt Prepared by the Arkansas Archeological Survey Fayetteville, Arkansas 1990 Arkansas Archeological Survey Fayetteville, Arkansas 72702 First Printing, 1988; Second Printing, 1990, by the Arkansas Department of Corrections, Wrightsville Third Printing, 1998, by University of Arkansas Printing Services Forth Printing, 2003, by University of Arkansas Printing Services Printed in the United States of America Library of Congress Catalog Card Number 90-80912 ii ABSTRACT This overview provides a synthesis of the current state of knowledge concerning archeological resources in the Ozark Mountain—Arkansas River—Ouachita Mountain subregion of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Southwest Division. Basic information on the environment of the study area is provided, followed by a review of the history of archeological research in the region. Prehistoric culture history is then reviewed according to the conventional framework of Paleo-Indian, Archaic, Woodland, and Mississippi time periods. Historic Na- tive American, European, and American settlement history is also considered. The history of bioarcheological research in the region is summarized, and a suggested framework for future bioarcheological investigations is provided. Bioarcheological data pertaining to the Archaic, Woodland, and Mississippi periods are then reviewed and several interpretations are made. The overview concludes with a synthesis of the archeological and bioarcheological data and interpretations in terms of four prehistoric and five historic period adaptation types. The basic features of each adaptation are identified, along with specification of important data gaps and signifi- cant research questions. -
