The Field Museum • Educator Guide Part 1 Page 4 Introduction to The Ancient Americas Exhibition etween the end of the last Ice Age and AD 1500, thousands of distinct societies called the Americas home. These societies created a rich diversity of social systems, languages, art, and religions, independent of—and prior to—the B arrival of Europeans. Through the objects they left behind and the places they lived, you meet a few of the many peoples who lived in pre-Columbian North, Central, and South America, and the Caribbean. As students explore the history of the peoples in the Americas, they will discover the American experience is a human story that applies to all of us today. Step inside The Ancient Americas to uncover the abundant creativity, dynamic relationships, and enduring contributions of early peoples in the Americas. • Discover how people not only survived, but thrived, during the Ice Age, and witness what “cropped up” when gathering and hunting groups experimented with their resources over time. • Find out what happened when people settled in farming villages, and how this changed the lifestyles of early peoples. • Examine different types of leadership in early societies, including how life was altered when more powerful individuals made decisions for whole communities. • Learn about a range of societies that successfully used local resources, created communities, formed governments, built cities, and created monuments in art and architecture. • Explore how and why multi-ethnic empires formed in the Americas, and what life was like in these vast societies. • Investigate how contemporary Indigenous peoples maintain ties to their rich heritages, as they live and work in the modern world. This 19,000 square-foot exhibition features over 2,200 objects, ranging from works of art to everyday objects, maps, dioramas, photographs, videos, and interactive stations. Each gallery in The Ancient Americas also features “Past Meets Present: Voices of Our Peoples” informational panels highlighting themes in the exhibition that are relevant to contemporary Indigenous peoples today. These panels feature full-color portraits and fi rst-person quotes from Indigenous peoples from

Previous col- lections of vegetative Merostachys specimens from El Triunfo, Chiapas, Mexico, were identified as M. pauciflora. However, new flowering collections from the state of Tabasco, Mexico, allowed us to differentiate the Mexican populations from M. latifolia and M. pauciflora. A detailed study of samples from the Tabasco population, and a review of the previous collections from Chiapas, confirmed the existence of a new Merostachys species, which we here describe and illustrate as M.

  • Elizabeth and Harold Hinds
    Elizabeth and Harold Hinds Imholte Hall, University of Minnesota-Morris Imholte Hall, Main Floor Walk-in Display Huichol yarn art. This piece depicts a ceiba tree with a bird. Beside it a man shoots a bow and arrow. Other insect- like forms fly about. These hallucinatory images are traditional for the Huicholes, who used peyote to bring on visions. Originally a traditional art form, yarn paintings became popular as tourist art. This piece was purchased at Tlaquepaque, a town just outside of Guadalajara, in the 1970’s. The story on the back reads: Los Huicholes no conocían el maíz en tiempos antiguos. Una vez un niño se enteró de que había gente allende las montañas “que tienen algo que llaman maíz,” y fue en su busaca. En camino se encontró con un grupo de hombres que le dijeron que (h)iba a comprar maíz y el, confiando, les acompañó. Lo que no sabía es que esa gente eran en realidad hormigas (los insectos en esta ilustración). La Gente Hormiga que ro(b)e todo lo que encuentra. Al llegar la madrugada se despertó. Bajo un gran pino y descubrió que le habían roido (robado) toda la ropa, el cabello e inclusive las cejas, y que solamente le quedaban el arco y las flechas. Oyó que un pájaro se pasaba en un árbol, y le apuntó con una flecha, pues tenía hambre. El pájaro le reveló que era Tatey Kukurú Uimári, Nuestra Madre Paloma Muchacha, la Madre del Maíz. Le dijo que siguiera a su casa, donde le daría maíz. Translation: The Huichol people didn’t know about maize in ancient times.

  • Introduction in the Americas, Agreat Diversity of Bamboo Endemic Species Is Found in Brazil, North and Central Andes, Mexico and Central America
    Theme: Environment: Ecology and Environmental Concerns Mexican national living bamboo collection ex situ conservation Ma. Teresa Mejia-Saulés and Rogelio Macías Ordóñez Instituto de Ecología A.C. Carretera antigua a Coatepec 351, El Haya, Xalapa, Ver. 91070 México. email: [email protected]@inecol.mx In the Americas, the highest bamboo diversity and endemism is found in Brazil, the northern and central Andes, Mexico and Central America. In 2003, there were 40 native species of bamboos described for Mexico in eleven bamboo genera. Recent work has brought this number to 56 species. More than the half (34) of the Mexican bamboo species are endemic. The Mexican bamboos grow in tropical dry and perennial forests, mixed pine-oak and pine-fire forests, pine forests, and cloud forests from sea level to 3,000 m elevation. Genera of described Mexican woody bamboos species (and spp number) are: Arthrostylidium(1), Aulonemia(1),Chusquea(22),Guadua(7),Merostachys (1),Olmeca(5),Otatea(11),Rhipidocladum(4). Herbaceous genera are Cryptochloa(1),Lithachne(1),Olyra(2). Many of them have a diversity of rustic uses such as material for roofs or walls, furniture, fences, baskets, walking sticks, handcrafts, beehives, agricultural tools as well as ornamental plants. Live collections at the Botanical Gardens that preserve plant genetic resources are curated for various purposes including scientific education and research. The Francisco Javier Clavijero Botanical Garden at the Instituto de Ecología, in Xalapa, Mexico, houses the Mexican national living bamboo collection. It was stablished in 2003 with the collaborative support of INECOL, Bamboo of the Americas, and the InstitutoTecnológico de Chetumal for the ex situ conservation of Mexican bamboo diversity, research and education.

  • Thank You for Purchasing the Hicoup Granite Pestle and Mortar!
    Thank you for purchasing the HiCoup Granite Pestle and Mortar! Congratulations and Welcome to the Family! We would like to thank you for purchasing the HiCoup Granite Mortar and Pestle. It is with great pleasure that we welcome you into the HiCoup Kitchenware family. HiCoup Kitchenware is a new company whose goal is to provide premiere, professional- inspired kitchenware direct to consumers like you. We design and produce our own products and are always adding more professional level kitchenware to our lineup! We would like to congratulate you for your mortar and pestle selection because you now own one of the finest granite mortar and pestle on the market. The HiCoup Mortar and Pestle was built to last and has been made from high quality granite that will serve you well for years to come. The reason why the granite mortar and pestle has not entirely been replaced by modern electric grinders is that it does indeed produce a more delicious paste. Instead of grinding up the fresh herbs and spices with a metal blade, these ingredients are pounded to release and meld all of their natural oils and juices. The metal blade merely cuts the ingredients up and mixes them. But the heavy stone pestle pounds the ingredients in a way that an electric device cannot. In this short guide, you will learn how to season your new mortar and pestle, tips and techniques on how to use your mortar and pestle, and finally how to care and how to properly clean a granite mortar and pestle so that it will provide you with many years of service.

  • Morphological, Anatomical, and Taxonomic Studies in Anomochloa and Streptochaeta (Poaceae: Bambusoideae)
    SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO BOTANY NUMBER 68 Morphological, Anatomical, and Taxonomic Studies in Anomochloa and Streptochaeta (Poaceae: Bambusoideae) Emmet J. Judziewicz and Thomas R. Soderstrom SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION PRESS Washington, D.C. 1989 ABSTRACT Judziewicz, Emmet J., and Thomas R. Soderstrom. Morphological, Anatomical, and Taxonomic Studies in Anomochloa and Streptochaeta (Poaceae: Bambusoideae). Smithsonian Contributions to Botany, number 68,52 pages, 24 figures, 1 table, 1989.-Although resembling the core group of the bambusoid grasses in many features of leaf anatomy, the Neotropical rainforest grass genera Anomochloa and Streptochaeta share characters that are unusual in the subfamily: lack of ligules, exceptionally long microhairs with an unusual morphology, a distinctive leaf blade midrib structure, and 5-nerved coleoptiles. Both genera also possess inflorescences that are difficult to interpret in conventional agrostological terms. Anomochloa is monotypic, and A. marantoidea, described in 1851 by Adolphe Brongniart from cultivated material of uncertain provenance, was rediscovered in 1976 in the wet forests of coastal Bahia, Brazil. The inflorescence terminates in a spikelet and bears along its rachis several scorpioid cyme-like partial inflorescences. Each axis of a partial inflorescence is subtended by a keeled bract and bears as its first appendages two tiny, unvascularized bracteoles attached at slightly different levels. The spikelets are composed of an axis that bears two bracts and terminates in a flower. The lower, chlorophyllous, deciduous spikelet bract is separated from the coriaceous, persistent, corniculate upper bract by a cylindrical, indurate internode. The flower consists of a low membrane surmounted by a dense ring of brown cilia (perigonate annulus) surrounding the andrecium of four stamens, and an ovary bearing a single hispid stigma.
