  • Thesis Methods of Dating Glass Beads From
    THESIS METHODS OF DATING GLASS BEADS FROM PROTOHISTORIC SITES IN THE SOUTH PLATTE RIVER BASIN, COLORADO Submitted by Christopher R. von Wedell Department of Anthropology In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Fall 2011 Master‟s Committee Advisor: Jason M. LaBelle Sammy J. Zahran Mary Van Buren ABSTRACT METHODS OF DATING GLASS BEADS FROM PROTOHISTORIC SITES IN THE SOUTH PLATTE RIVER BASIN, COLORADO Morphological characteristics and chemical trace elements counts acquired using Laser Ablation-Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry analyses were documented for glass trade beads from 24 protohistoric archaeological assemblages in the South Platte River Basin. The resulting database was used to provide quantitative descriptions of each recorded assemblage and to characterize the types of glass beads currently reported in the region. Statistical analyses were then conducted to determine if and to what extent morphological and chemical traits change through time. Characteristics of beads in dated contexts were then used to develop a linear regression model in an attempt to determine if it is possible to estimate the age of beads from undated contexts. It is concluded that morphological and chemical characteristics of glass beads in dated contexts can be used to estimate the age of glass beads in undated contexts using linear regression. The results of this thesis demonstrate that morphological characteristics are currently more accurate and precise than chemistry although both methods hold potential for revision and improvement as more dated sites become available to supplement the statistical models. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis was made possible by the encouragement, support, and gentle nudging of many individuals and institutions.

  • Everything Will Be Changed: the Horse and the Comanche Empire
    Everything Will Be Changed: The Horse and the Comanche Empire Stephen Kwas Senior Division Historical Paper Word Count: 2474 “Remember this: if you have horses everything will be changed for you forever.”1 - Attributed to Maheo, Creator God of the Cheyenne Bones of over 1,000 horses lay bleaching under a hot Texas sun, months-old remnants from the last stand of one of the greatest equestrian powers in history: the Comanche. Spanish horses allowed for the Comanche and other tribes of the Great Plains, who had lacked horses for over 15,000 years, to transform their societies. Upon its arrival, the Comanche immediately capitalized on the horse and used it to break the barrier of human physiology—the limits of human endurance which significantly restricted hunting, raiding, and trading—and created a vast trade empire. Many have romanticized this history by arguing that the horse was beneficial to all Comanches.2 This paper, however, argues that the horse brought wealth and power to some Comanches, but also brought slave markets, marginalization of women, constant warfare, and social stratification to their society. The tragic irony was that the horse, the very technology that allowed them to conquer their environment, eventually destroyed the ecological balance of the Plains and made them vulnerable to American invasions. Pedestrianism: Life before the Horse Before European contact, Plains Indians relied on farming as much as hunting and often oscillated between the two.3 Although the bison served as their main source of food, Plains 1 Alice Marriott and Carol K.

  • Charles C. Di Peso, 1920-1982
    MEMORIALS Charles C. Di Peso, 19204982 Charles C. Di Peso died of cancer on 20 November 1982, at the Tucson Medical Center. Di Peso served for 30 years as Director of the Amerind Foundation, a non-profit research center in Dragoon, Arizona, devoted to the study of Native American culture history. His work on the prehistoric and early historic peoples of southern Arizona and northern Mexico is well known and respected. Di Peso belonged to many professional organizations, including the Society for Historical Archaeology, of which he was a founding member. His participation in the Society and in the profession will be greatly missed. Di Peso was born on 20 October 1920, in St. Louis, Missouri to Charles Corradino and Emma Klein Di Peso and grew up in Chicago Heights, Illinois. While still in high school, Di Peso was invited by Paul S. Martin of the Chicago Field Museum of Natural History to participate in an archaeological project in Colorado. The experience confirmed an interest in archaeology, which he pursued at Beloit College, working as a student assistant under Paul S. Nesbitt, director of Beloit’s Logan Museum. In 1941 Di Peso again joined Paul Martin on a Field Museum expedi- tion, this time the Pine Lawn, New Mexico, project. Di Peso graduated from Beloit in 1942 with a B.A. in Anthropology and a B.S. in Geology, and in June he married Frances Teague. From 1942 to 1946 Di Peso served in the United States Air Force as a First Lieutenant, Pilot, and Instructor in Advanced Training Course and Instru- ment Flying.

  • 5MT3 Site Report
    Site 5MT3: A Small Village in the Joe Ben Wheat Site Complex (5MT16722), Yellow Jacket, Colorado Richard H. Wilshusen and Jeannette L. Mobley-Tanaka 2005 Chapter 1 Introduction to the Archaeology of 5MT3 Richard H. Wilshusen and Jeannette L. Mobley-Tanaka Site 5MT3 is one of three sites in the Joe Ben Wheat Site Complex (5MT16722), which was listed to the National Register of Historic Places in 2004 (Lekson 2004). Site 5MT3 has three distinct periods of occupation, which fall within the Basketmaker III, Pueblo II, and Pueblo III periods in the Pecos classification. These occupations date to approximately A.D. 630–660, 1050–1150, and 1150–1275. Although 5MT3 was the second site to be investigated, it was the site that Joe Ben Wheat returned to again and again over a 30-year period of time. There have been several theses and dissertations—as well as various journal articles—that have focused on aspects or artifacts from the site; but there still is the need for a detailed site report. The present report is a preliminary site report that introduces researchers to the research history, archaeological setting, and occupation history of the site. A full site report would require hundreds of pages of descriptive text and at least a preliminary analysis of the artifacts. This is not possible at the present, but we anticipate that this preliminary report will encourage the research necessary to produce a more comprehensive site report. The Pueblo III occupation (5MT3. Figure 1) at the site is the largest and most well revealed of the three occupations.

"""! Abstract Bredthauer, Alison Vanessa (M.A., Anthropology) A Towering Enigma: An Examination of Late Pueblo II and Pueblo III Period towers in the northern San Juan region Thesis directed by Dr. Catherine M. Cameron One of the most impressive structural elements of ancestral Puebloan culture is the masonry tower, a structure most commonly found during the Pueblo III (A.D. 1150-1300) period of northern San Juan region occupation. This time period was associated with dramatic and significant social changes that characterized the decades before the ultimate depopulation of the region in the 1300s. The following thesis research explores both the variability in construction and context of towers in order to better understand how they functioned during this time period.

On the south the boundary is formed by the north slope of the Mesa Verde, the divide between Mud Creek and Navajo Wash, the north slopes of Ute Mountain and the divide between Rincone Canyon and East McElmo Creek. On the west, the boundary is formed by the Colorado State Line, although geographically, the drainage unit continues into Utah. On the north, the boundary follows the divide between Monument Canyon and Squaw and Cross Canyons northeast to a point north and east of Dove Creek, Colorado. The northeast boundary is formed by the 7000 foot contour on a line running from Dove Creek to Puett Reservoir. On the east, the boundary is formed by the divide between McElmo Creek and the Mancos River near the entrance to Mesa Verde National Park.
