  • 6 European Colonization in Mississippi
    6 EUROPEAN COLONIZATION IN MISSISSIPPI1 JACK D. ELLIOTT, JR. INTRODUCTION The purpose of this report is to identify the cultural resources of Mississippi pertaining to the Period of European Colonization. The cultural resources include both sites and buildings. The term “sites” is the more inclusive of the two terms. Sites are the places at which past activities occurred and consequently include sites on which are located historic building, sites with archaeological remains, and even sites which were the scenes of past activities, yet at which there are no extant physical remains other than the physical landscape, associated with those events. The Period of European Colonization is separated from the preceding Period of European Exploration by the beginning of permanent European settlement. Permanent settlement is particularly important for the aspect of historic preservation programs that deal with Euro-American culture in that it marks the inception of a time period in which we first find significant numbers of sites and other remains of occupation. Prior to the beginning of permanent European settlement in Mississippi the European presence was confined to merely sporadic expeditions and wanderers that seldomed on the same site for more than a season at most. Such sites have typically been difficult if not impossible to identify. It has only been with the inception of permanent European settlement that we first have settlements that were sufficiently permanent that they can be identified through maps, written sources, and archaeological remains. Consequently, the distinction between the periods of exploration and colonization is more fundamental than that between the period of colonization and the succeeding periods under American jurisdiction.

    The Cabin Re-Interprets the Big House The advent of the Black historical counter-narrative in Natchez, the heart of the Lost Cause South Scott Plencner Northeastern Illinois University, Chicago, IL (2 May 2016) working unpublished historical manuscript For twenty-one years Ser Boxley has been irritating the tourism industry, historical societies, and the National Park Service. “They don’t like me,” he says. Since he moved back to his hometown of Natchez in 1995 after a career teaching and fighting for social justice in Northern California, he has taken up the cause of the past. His plan was to leave the U.S. behind and enjoy his retirement in Africa, but the ghosts that seem to inhabit Mississippi’s ruins took hold of him. While in Natchez, on his way to Africa, he couldn’t look past the glorification of antebellum mansions and Gone with the Wind imagery that permeated his hometown during its annual Pilgrimage festivals. He had been on the frontlines of the civil Civil rights and African American history advocate, Mayor Phillip West, takes a look back at Dunleith mansion. rights movement in San Francisco.
