  • Monongahela Indians
    As part of the U.S. 219 Meyersdale Bypass project, and in keeping with the provisions of the Na- tional Historic Preservation Act, an archaeological survey of the project area was conducted to determine the impact of the roadway construction on cultural resources. The survey identified 68 archaeological sites, of which 21 were evaluated for their eligibility to the National Register of Historic Places. Eight of these sites were ultimately selected for intensive data recovery excavations. The artifacts recovered from the archaeological excavations belong to the State of Pennsylvania and are permanently stored at the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. This booklet presents some of the results of research and excavations conducted as part of the project. Special thanks to the communities of Meyersdale and Summit Township, Pennsylvania for their support, interest, and contribution to the success of the archaeological investigations.

The vertical files may include newspaper clippings, field notes, draft versions of forms and architectural reports, photographs, maps, and drawings. Researchers who need a thorough understanding of this property should plan to visit the MHT Library as part of their research project; look at the MHT web site (mht.maryland.gov) for details about how to make an appointment.

The known limits of the site extend about 200' along the river and 100' back from the bank. Test excavations in 1958, 1964, and 1966, by H.T. Wright and Frank R. Corliss, Jr. revealed a deep plowzone of dark-brown sandy humus containing artifacts. Underneath the plowzone is light-yellow, sandy subsoil which is apparently sterile of cultural remains.

  • Strategic Middlemen: Monongahela, Mohawk, and Meskwaki Settlements in a Trade Landscape
    STRATEGIC MIDDLEMEN: MONONGAHELA, MOHAWK, AND MESKWAKI SETTLEMENTS IN A TRADE LANDSCAPE By Emma Elizabeth Bremer Submitted to the Faculty of The Archaeological Program Department of Sociology and Archaeology in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science University of Wisconsin-La Crosse 2012 Copyright © 2012 by Emma Elizabeth Bremer All Rights Reserved ii STRATEGIC MIDDLEMEN: MONONGAHELA, MOHAWK, AND MESKWAKI SETTLEMENTS IN A TRADE LANDSCAPE Emma Elizabeth Bremer, B.S. University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, 2012 North America was home to a vast set of trade networks both prehistorically and historically. In several instances key passages within these networks were controlled by societies who acted as middlemen. This position allowed them to command great power and wealth, which created tension with their neighbors and trade partners. This study examines how the Monongahela of the upper Ohio River valley (A.D. 1100-1635), the Mohawk of the Mohawk valley (A.D. 1525- 1776), and the Meskwaki of the Fox River Passage (A.D. 1665-1730) settled within their territories and how these decisions may have reflected considerations including subsistence, control of routes, and defense. iii Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to thank my readers, Dr. Constance Arzigian and Dr. David Anderson for their constant support and guidance. I would also like to thank the members of my reading group, Cindy Kocik and Caitlin Larson, as well as my family, roommates, and friends for supporting me through this long process and providing much needed help with editing.
