  • Pottery Mound, and a Comparison of Jewelry Found at the Two Sites
    THE JEWELRY OF TIJERAS PUEBLO By Lucy C. Schuyler Maxwell Museum Technical Series No. 15 Maxwell Museum of Anthropology MSC01, 1050, 1 University of New Mexico Albuquerque, New Mexico 87131-0001 www.unm.edu/~maxwell 2010 (Revised 2011) Note added November 2011 In November, 2011, five turquoise pieces that had been on display at the Albuquerque Museum of Art and History (Figure A.1) were returned to the Maxwell Museum. These pieces were not available for close examination during my study, so the exact identity of certain artifacts was uncertain (see Page 84). Once the five pieces were returned to the Maxwell Museum, the pendant listed in the report as Catalogue No. 78.67.397 was found to correspond to Catalogue No. 78.67.111, listed as “unavailable for examination.” Likewise, the pendant listed as Catalogue No. 78.67.141B was found to correspond to Catalogue No. 78.67.397. The Tijeras jewelry Excel spreadsheet and master artifact spreadsheet have been updated to reflect the new information. As a result of these revisions, the number of artifacts originally reported is overstated by one. The total collection includes 450 specimens, 390 jewelry artifacts, and 92 pendants.

  • Archaeology Activity Book
    Archaeology Activity Book Illustrations: Heather Brindza Text: Danielle Ellis Layout: Rebecca Conway Appalachian Forest Heritage Area (AFHA) is a non-profit, grassroots organization that promotes economic and community development by linking central Appalachian forest history, culture, natural history, products and forest management into a multi-state heritage tourism initiative. Monongahela National Forest hosts AFHA-sponsored AmeriCorps service at forest sites that enhance natural resources and tourism and connect local communities. The Eastern National Forests Interpretive Association (ENFIA) is a non-profit association that aids and promotes the historical, scientific, and educational activities of the USDA Forest Service. This activity book was made possible through grants and partnership agreements with AFHA AmeriCorps, ENFIA, and USDA Forest Service. Archaeology is the study of material culture left behind by people from the past. Material culture are things created or used by people, like stone tools, a glass bottle, or even an entire building. Archaeologists look for archaeological sites to try to answer questions about the past. A site is where artifacts, features, or ecofacts are grouped together in an area. This means people were in that area in the past, and it’s up to the archaeologist to figure out what they were doing there. Sometimes archaeologists find things that can’t be easily collected or are part of the environment past peoples used. These things are called features. Features are often large, like the foundation of a house, or difficult to collect from the site, like an ashy campfire ring. Feature example: campfire ring Artifacts are things created or used by past peoples.

    Archaeology For Kids! In this Issue: • Ask An Archaeologist • Archaeology Word Search • • Talk Like an Archaeologist • The Making of An Artifact • • Archaeology Scramble • Guess the Artifact • Ask An Archaeologist Do archaeologists dig up dinosaurs? Archaeologists study the material remains left behind by people in the past. They actually do not study dinosaurs and fossils, even though they may come across them by accident while they are digging. That’s when they call a palaeontologist, who study earth’s earliest inhabitants, like dinosaurs and early plants that are now extinct and preserved in layers of the earth as fossils. In the field, archaeologists and palaeontologists may look a lot alike because they use similar methods and sometimes similar tools to uncover the past. Palaeontology, however, teaches us about the history of the earth and its earliest inhabitants, while archaeology teaches us about ancient (and sometimes not-so-ancient) people.
