  • LMS Bulletin No. 5 RESEARCH RESOURCES on LOWER
    LMS Bulletin No. 5 RESEARCH RESOURCES ON LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY ARCHAEOLOGY Compiled by STEPHEN WILLIAMS Peabody Museum Harvard University 1979 i RESEARCH RESOURCES ON LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY ARCHAEOLOGY Introduction One result of Philip Phillips's decade-long research and publication program on the engraved shell from Spiro has been the recognition by LMS staff that important archaeological materials are very widely spread throughout institutions in the United States. Of course, Spiro is a special case, and undoubtedly artifacts from that famous site had a no­ toriety that led them to be much sought after. Also, because of Phil's detailed study and the extensive "matching" of broken fragments from different institutions, these disparate finds have had a value for his research that would not be true for that odd handful of arrowheads hid­ ing in a dusty drawer from somewhere in the Lower Valley with nothing but a county/state geographic attribution. Nevertheless, I am a firm believer in the value of museum collec­ tions, and, as we are dealing with a nonrenewable resource and escalating costs of data, recovery, I can only feel that it behooves us all to try to make the maximum use of the objects and data that have already been recovered. Virtually every collection listed herein could profit from renewed study. For example, although I studied and photographed the Beckwith Collection in Cape Girardeau for the University of Michigan in 1950, I am sure that I would get much more from another look today. One area of data that remains very underutilized is the visual record: the University of Michigan (JBG's files) and Peabody (LMS) files are probably the largest in this area.
