Hardin David M. Hoffman (Graduate Coordinator) Rick Travis (Dean, College of Arts & Sciences) A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Mississippi State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Applied Anthropology in the Department of Anthropology and Middle Eastern Cultures Mississippi State, Mississippi August 2020 Copyright by COPYRIGHT PAGE William David Harris 2020 Name: William David Harris ABSTRACT Date of Degree: August 7, 2020 Institution: Mississippi State University Major Field: Applied Anthropology Major Professor: Darcy Shane Miller Title of Study: Mississippian Period (1000 – 1700 A.D.) wattle and daub construction in the Yazoo Basin: Comparing energy expenditure using context and construction methods Pages in Study: 182 Candidate for Degree of Master of Arts Native American societies in the Yazoo Basin during the Mississippian Period (ca. 1000 – 1700 A.D.) extensively built platform mounds often associated with “elite” or “sacred” areas, and exotic or energy expensive artifacts. Excessive energy expenditure, or “waste” behaviors, may be explained with costly signaling and bet-hedging, hypotheses stemming from evolutionary theory. I argue that costly signaling may best explain the waste evident in hierarchical and agricultural Mississippian Period societies of the Mississippi Valley. Consequently, I feel that differing levels of energy expenditure may be evident from the remains of perishable construction excavated from mound summits and off-mound contexts. During that time, wattle and daub was a common method of wall construction in the Yazoo Basin, leaving abundant evidence at Mississippian sites. By studying imprints from preserved daub fragments, the use of specific construction methods can be compared between mound and non-mound contexts and relative energy expenditure assessed. DEDICATION This thesis is dedicated to John Connaway and the late Dr. Janet Rafferty, who both showed me that the Past changes as if it were alive today. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis would have been impossible without the help and interest of more people than can be accounted for here. I thank my committee member Evan Peacock, who has led me back to the bright but untrodden path many times, his work as a daub pioneer, and for his abiding support and interest. I thank my major professor D. Shane Miller for taking me on and voicing support when things were tough, and for some excellent classes and fieldwork experiences. I am extremely thankful to Jimmy Hardin who jumped on my committee when Janet passed, for always being willing to listen to my ideas, and for pointing me towards Old World analogues for my work. I thank the late Janet Rafferty who was supportive and knowledgeable about basically everything and helped steer my line of questioning. I could have also not completed this work without the contribution of John Connaway, who’s knowledge, and early daub work this is an extension of in many regards. I am extremely grateful to the Mississippi Archaeology Association and its members, especially Anna Reginelli, Bo Pitts, Tony Payne, Benny and Gena Roberts, Rob Bonney, all of whom contributed essential fieldwork, notes, figures, artifacts, listened to my presentations and gave good support. Jeffrey Alvey, Keith Baca, and Bradley Carlock of the Cobb Institute’s CRM program were enormously helpful at locating old collections and documents. Dr. Tony Boudreaux and my friend Hannah Zechmann at the University of Mississippi, Dr. Ed Jackson at the University of Southern Mississippi, Dr. Jessica Kowalski at the Arkansas Archeological Survey, Meg Cook and Emily Clark at the Mississippi Department of Archives and History, Jason Ervin, Jim Turner, and Lizbeth Velasquez of iii Mississippi Department of Transportation, Jessica Crawford and Nikki Mattson of the Archaeological Conservancy, I thank you all with utmost sincerity, all of you helped make this happen. Finally, I thank my family for their sacrifices and support throughout the entire thesis writing process. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS DEDICATION ................................................................................................................................ ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ........................................................................................................... iii LIST OF TABLES ....................................................................................................................... viii LIST OF FIGURES ....................................................................................................................... ix CHAPTER I.

  • Field-Expedient Weapons, Tools, and Equipment
    FIELD-EXPEDIENT WEAPONS, TOOLS, AND EQUIPMENT As a soldier you know the importance of proper care and use of your weapons, tools, and equipment. This is espe- cially true of your knife. You must always keep it sharp and ready to use. A knife is your most valuable tool in a sur- vival situation. Imagine being in a survival situation with- out any weapons, tools, or equipment except your knife. It could happen! You might even be without a knife. You would probably feel helpless, but with the proper knowledge and skills, you can easily improvise needed items. In survival situations, you may have to fashion any num- ber and type of field-expedient tools and equipment to sur- vive. Examples of tools and equipment that could make your life much easier are ropes, rucksacks, clothes, nets, and so on. 12-1 Weapons serve a dual purpose. You use them to obtain and prepare food and to provide self-defense. A weapon can also give you a feeling of security and provide you with the ability to hunt on the move. CLUBS You hold clubs, you do not throw them. As a field-expedient weapon, the club does not protect you from enemy soldiers. It can, however, extend your area of defense beyond your fingertips. It also serves to increase the force of a blow without injuring yourself. There are three basic types of clubs. They are the simple, weighted, and sling club. Simple Club A simple club is a staff or branch. It must be short enough for you to swing easily, but long enough and strong enough for you to damage whatever you hit.

HOUSEHOLDS AND CHANGING USE OF SPACE AT THE TRANSITIONAL EARLY MISSISSIPPIAN AUSTIN SITE A Thesis presented in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts in the Department of Sociology and Anthropology University of Mississippi by BENJAMIN GARRETT DAVIS May 2019 ABSTRACT The Austin Site (22TU549) is a village site located in Tunica County, Mississippi dating to approximately A.D. 1150-1350, along the transition from the Terminal Late Woodland to the Mississippian period. While Elizabeth Hunt’s (2017) masters thesis concluded that the ceramics at Austin emphasized a Late Woodland persistence, the architecture and use of space at the site had yet to be analyzed. This study examines this architecture and use of space over time at Austin to determine if they display evidence of increasing institutionalized inequality. This included creating a map of Austin based on John Connaway’s original excavation notes, and then analyzing this map within the temporal context of the upper Yazoo Basin.

  • The Arrow Shafts Is Pseudosasa Japonica Or Commonly Called Japanese Arrow Bamboo
    The Japanese Arrow By Godai Katsunaga Intorduction The Ya, or arrow of Japan and was between 34 and 38 inches in length, made of fire hardened bamboo shafts and had a steel arrow head., During this period and earlier arrows used in combat were often marked to identify who owned them, this allowed samurai to get the proper credit for killing an opponent. Period Construction The bamboo used for the arrow shafts is Pseudosasa japonica or commonly called Japanese arrow bamboo. This bamboo grows in slender culms that are packed tightly together, forming a dense hedge, with large, dark green foliage. It is a tough and versatile bamboo that will thrive in shade and in sun while growing to about 15 foot tall and was common throughout Japan. Farmers and other workers harvested the bamboo in the early winter when the plants saps were down. To get the required diameter need to make arrows the plants that were between two and three years in age were preferred. After harvesting, the best bamboo was hand selected and ideally stored for about a year for drying, allowing most of the moisture in the plant material to evaporate. Preparation of each shaft included having the nodes shaved off and then softening the shaft by placing it in hot sand prior to straightening it by hand. After the shafts were straightened, they were exposed to high heat to remove any remaining moisture and harden the natural sugars, creating a stronger bond of the natural fibers; this was known as fire hardening. Fletching was done with hawk, eagle, crane or pheasant tail feathers and could be either three or four flights depending on the arrow head that would be mounted.
