  • Twenty Questions About Arkansas Indians*
    Twenty Questions about Arkansas Indians* Ann M. Early, Ph.D. & George Sabo III, Ph.D. (Arkansas Archeological Survey) 1. How did the first Indians get to America? The first movement of people into the Americas was part of a global expansion of human populations at the end of the last Ice Age that resulted in the occupation of every major landmass in the world except Antarctica. Archeological finds sug- gest that some Asiatic hunting groups crossed a thousand-mile wide land bridge connecting Siberia with Alaska, while oth- ers traveled in boats across the north Pacific rim to reach North America sometime between 16,500 and 13,500 years ago (between 14,500 and 11,500 bc). These Paleoindians spread very rapidly across the continent, reaching the Mid-South/Ar- kansas region shortly after 11,500bc . 2. What archeological periods are recognized in Arkansas? The Paleoindian period represents the adaptations of those first people to occupy this region at the end of the last Ice Age, from 11,500–8500 bc. Paleoindians were nomadic (moving from place to place throughout the year) and lived mainly by hunting. Next comes the Archaic period (8500–650 bc), during which people gradually settled down in early Holocene (modern, post-Ice Age) environments. These people were hunters and gatherers, but around 5,000 years ago they domesti- cated the first garden plants and a few centuries later constructed the first monumental earthworks. The Woodland period (650 bc–ad 900) witnessed the expansion of gardening and the development of small farming villages. Woodland Indians buried some of their dead under earthen mounds and they also constructed large ceremonial centers, such as the Toltec Mounds site near Little Rock.

Habitat destruction, including loss, change, and fragmentation of habitat, is the leading cause of species extinction. Eastern collared lizards (Crotaphytus collaris collaris) are habitat specialists on glades. Both C. c. collaris and glade habitats are rare and of special concern in the state of Arkansas. Many glade populations have already been extirpated in the Ozarks of Arkansas and Missouri.
