  • New Record of Terminal Pleistocene Elk/Wapiti (Cervus Canadensis) from Ohio, USA
    2 TERMINAL PLEISTOCENE ELK FROM OHIO VOL. 121(2) New Record of Terminal Pleistocene Elk/Wapiti (Cervus canadensis) from Ohio, USA BRIAN G. REDMOND1, Department of Archaeology, Cleveland Museum of Natural History, Cleveland, OH, USA; DAVID L. DYER, Ohio History Connection, Columbus, OH, USA; and CHARLES STEPHENS, Sugar Creek Chapter, Archaeological Society of Ohio, Massillon, OH, USA. ABSTRACT. The earliest appearance of elk/wapiti (Cervus canadensis) in eastern North America is not thoroughly documented due to the small number of directly dated remains. Until recently, no absolute dates on elk bone older than 10,000 14C yr BP (11,621 to 11,306 calibrated years (cal yr) BP) were known from this region. The partial skeleton of the Tope Elk was discovered in 2017 during commercial excavation of peat deposits from a small bog in southeastern Medina County, Ohio, United States. Subsequent examination of the remains revealed the individual to be a robust male approximately 8.5 years old at death. The large size of this individual is compared with late Holocene specimens and suggests diminution of elk since the late Pleistocene. Two accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) radiocarbon assays on bone collagen samples taken from the scapula and metacarpal of this individual returned ages of 10,270 ± 30 14C yr BP (Beta-477478) (12,154 to 11,835 cal yr BP) and 10,260 ± 30 14C yr BP (Beta-521748) (12,144 to 11,830 cal yr BP), respectively. These results place Cervus canadensis in the terminal Pleistocene of the eastern woodlands and near the establishment of the mixed deciduous forest biome over much of the region.

  • A Critical Analysis of the Adoption of Maize in Southern Ontario and Its
    A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE ADOPTION OF MAIZE IN SOUTHERN ONTARIO AND ITS SPATIAL, DEMOGRAPHIC, AND ECOLOGICAL SIGNATURES A thesis submitted to the Committee of Graduate Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Faculty of Arts and Science. TRENT UNIVERSITY Peterborough, Ontario, Canada © Copyright by Eric Beales 2013 Anthropology M.A. Graduate Program January 2014 ABSTRACT: A Critical Analysis of the Adoption of Maize in Southern Ontario and its Spatial, Demographic, and Ecological Signatures Eric Beales This thesis centers on analyzing the spatial, temporal, and ecological patterns associated with the introduction of maize horticulture into Southern Ontario – contextualized against social and demographic models of agricultural transition. Two separate analyses are undertaken: a regional analysis of the spread of maize across the Northeast using linear regression of radiocarbon data and a standard Wave of Advance model; and a local analysis of village locational trends in Southern Ontario using a landscape ecological framework, environmental data and known village sites. Through the integration of these two spatial and temporal scales of analysis, this research finds strong support for both migration and local development. A third model of competition and coalescence is presented to describe the patterning in the data. Keywords: Ontario Archaeology, Spread of Agriculture, Maize, Geostastical Analysis, Geographic Information Systems, GIS, Environmental Modeling, Demographic Modeling, Middle Woodland, Late Woodland, Southern Ontario ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS: This study would not have been possible without the generous support of several people and institutions. First and foremost, I would like to express my utmost gratitude to my supervisor, Dr.

    LATE WOODLAND HUNTING PATTERNS: EVIDENCE FROM FACING MONDAY CREEK ROCKSHELTER (33HO414), SOUTHEASTERN OHIO A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Science Staci Elaine Spertzel August 2005 This thesis entitled LATE WOODLAND HUNTING PATTERNS: EVIDENCE FROM FACING MONDAY CREEK ROCKSHELTER (33HO414), SOUTHEASTERN OHIO by STACI ELAINE SPERTZEL has been approved for the Department of Environmental Studies and the College of Arts and Sciences by Elliot Abrams Professor of Sociology and Anthropology Benjamin M. Ogles Interim Dean, College of Arts and Sciences SPERTZEL, STACI E. M.S. August 2005. Environmental Archaeology Late Woodland Hunting Patterns: Evidence from Facing Monday Creek Rockshelter (33HO414), Southeastern Ohio (122pp.) Director of Thesis: Elliot Abrams Intensified use of southeastern Ohio rockshelter environments during the Late Woodland period is significant to upland resource procurement strategies. Facing Monday Creek Rockshelter (33HO414) of Hocking County serves as one illustration of faunal exploitation and lithic procurement patterns associated with Late Woodland logistical organization. The cultural materials recovered during excavation are analyzed with a purpose of understanding the use of rockshelters as specialized task localities. Results of analyses are synthesized with comparative research to delineate broad cultural patterns associated with rockshelter utilization. A pattern includes intermittent seasonal exploitation by small hunting parties or task groups in search of target resources at a known location. It is hypothesized that during the Late Woodland period, aggregation to larger residential settlements within the broad alluvial valleys would have resulted in an increase in those distances traveled to upland settings initiating a functional attribute for rockshelters as temporary hunting stations.

  • The Nature of Prehistory
    The Nature of Prehistory In Colorado, mountains ascended past clouds and were eroded to valleys, salty seas flooded our land and were dried to powder or rested on us as freshwater ice, plants rose from wet algae to dry forests and flowers, animals transformed from a single cell to frantic dinosaurs and later, having rotated around a genetic rocket, into sly mammals. No human saw this until a time so very recent that we were the latest model of Homo sapiens and already isolated from much of the terror of that natural world by our human cultures' perceptual permutations and re­ flections. We people came late to Colorado. The first humans, in the over one hundred thousand square miles of what we now call Colorado, saw a landscape partitioned not by political fences or the orthogonal architecture of wall, floor, and roadway, but by gradations in game abundance, time to water, the supply of burnables, shelter from vagaries of atmosphere and spirit, and a pedestrian's rubric of distance and season. We people came as foragers and hunters to Colorado. We have lived here only for some one hundred fifty centuries-not a long time when compared to the fifty thousand centuries that the Euro­ pean, African, and Asian land masses have had us and our immediate prehuman ancestors. It is not long compared to the fifty million cen­ turies of life on the planet. We humans, even the earliest prehistoric The Na ture of Prehistory 3 societies, are all colonists in Colorado. And, except for the recent pass­ ing of a mascara of ice and rain, we have not been here long enough to see, or study, her changing face.

  • TABLE 6.3 Significant Archaeological Sites in North America Older Than 5,000 Years
    TABLE 6.3 Significant Archaeological Sites in North America Older than 5,000 Years Site Name Description Bluefish Located in present-day Yukon Territory, Bluefish Caves is significant because it provides Caves evidence of people in Beringia during the last ice age. The site contains artifacts made of stone and bone as well as butchered animal remains. Most archaeologists accept dates between 15,000 and 12,000 years ago, although some suggest dates in the range of 25,000 years ago. Cactus Hill This site is located in Virginia. It is widely accepted as being older than 12,000 years, but the precise antiquity is uncertain. Some suggest that the site may be as old as 19,000 to 17,000 years, but these dates are contested. Gault This site, located in Texas, was a Clovis camp and was likely first occupied more than 12,000 years ago. The assemblage includes more than one million artifacts, includ- ing several hundred thousand that are more than 9,000 years old. The site is particularly significant for showing the diversity of diet, which, contrary to popular belief, indicates that mammoths and other large game were only a small part of the Clovis diet. The site is also significant in providing what may be the oldest art in North America, in the form of more than 100 incised stones. Meadowcroft Meadowcroft Rockshelter, located in Pennsylvania, is widely considered to contain depos- its that are at least 12,000 years old. Some suggest the deposits may be as old as 19,000 years, but these dates are contested.

  • Archaeological Survey of the Chesapeake Bay Shorelines Associated with Accomack County and Northampton County, Virginia
    ARCHAEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF THE CHESAPEAKE BAY SHORELINES ASSOCIATED WITH ACCOMACK COUNTY AND NORTHAMPTON COUNTY, VIRGINIA VOLUME I By: Darrin Lowery Manuscript Prepared For: The Virginia Department of Historic Resources Portsmouth Regional Preservation Office 612 Court Street Portsmouth, VA 23704 March 2001 ii ABSTRACT This report summarizes the results of an archaeological survey conducted along the Chesapeake Bay shorelines of both Accomack County and Northampton County, Virginia. Accomack and Northampton counties represent the southernmost extension of the Delmarva Peninsula. The study area encompasses the confluence of the Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. A shoreline survey was conducted along the Chesapeake Bay to gauge the erosion threat to the archaeological resources situated along the shoreline. Archaeological sites along shorelines are subjected to numerous natural processes. Aside from erosion, some of the natural processes influencing shoreline related cultural resources include coastal inundation, prehistoric aeolian processes, bioturbation, recent coastal dune formations, chemical processes within tidal marshes, redeposition, and surface “sheet-erosion” or deflation. These natural processes greatly influence the success of an archaeological survey and what data are collected, noted, and observed while conducting a survey. Summaries associated with these natural processes are presented in this report. The report also offers examples, using Delmarva Peninsula archaeological data, which illustrate how these natural processes influence and limit the interpretive value of single analysis or one-time archaeological survey surface data. As a “double-blind” test, the actual locations and cultural chronologies associated with previously recognized and recorded sites were not collected prior to the completion of the survey. By not knowing the previous site data, the present shoreline survey would help assess and gauge the accuracy of the previous single “one-time” archaeological survey data.
