The wild tomatillo, Physalis longifolia Nutt., and related species have been important wild-harvested foods and medicinal plants. This paper reviews their traditional use as food and medicine; it also discusses taxonomic difficulties and provides information on recent medicinal chemistry discoveries within this and related species. Subtle morphological differences recognized by taxonomists to distinguish this species from closely related taxa can be confusing to botanists and ethnobotanists, and many of these differences are not considered to be important by indigenous people. Therefore, the food and medicinal uses reported here include information for P. longifolia, as well as uses for several related taxa found north of Mexico. The importance of wild Physalis species as food is reported by many tribes, and its long history of use is evidenced by frequent discovery in archaeological sites. These plants may have been cultivated, or “tended,” by Pueblo farmers and other tribes. The importance of this plant as medicine is made evident through its historical ethnobotanical use, information in recent literature on Physalis species pharmacology, and our Native Medicinal Plant Research Program’s recent discovery of 14 new natural products, some of which have potent anti-cancer activity.

  • Projectile Points As Indicators of Preceramic Occupation of the Coconino Plateau by Michael G. Lyndon a Thesis Submitted In
    Projectile Points as Indicators of Preceramic Occupation of the Coconino Plateau by Michael G. Lyndon A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for the Degree of Master of Arts in Anthropology Northern Arizona University August 2005 Approved: ___________________________ Francis E. Smiley IV, Ph.D., Chair ___________________________ Christian E. Downum, Ph.D. ___________________________ Robert T. Trotter II, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Projectile Points as Indicators of Preceramic Occupation of the Coconino Plateau Michael G. Lyndon The study presented here represents the first regional analysis of how preceramic site distributions on the Coconino Plateau changed through time. Although a growing body of literature focuses on the ceramic-era Cohonina people that inhabited the area after A.D. 700, only a few projects have offered any insight into the 12,000 year period of human occupation prior to that time. The paucity of data regarding the preceramic period on the Coconino Plateau has long frustrated attempts to develop a complete culture-history for the region. As Hanson (1996:2) notes, “[t]he chronology of the Archaic west of the [San Francisco] Peaks is not well developed and the identity of the antecedent Archaic populations is not possible with the current evidence.” This study seeks to identify such populations by using the temporally diagnostic projectile points they left on the landscape in order to develop an initial culture chronology for the Coconino Plateau. I argue throughout this thesis that the absence of such a chronology coupled with the lack of archaeological investigation into the preceramic periods on the Coconino Plateau has biased archaeological site data for the region.

  • Technological Style and Social Boundaries of Perishable Artifacts of the Early Agricultural/Basketmaker Ii Period
    TECHNOLOGICAL STYLE AND SOCIAL BOUNDARIES OF PERISHABLE ARTIFACTS OF THE EARLY AGRICULTURAL/BASKETMAKER II PERIOD Laurie D. Webster University of Arizona ABSTRACT Alcove sites in the Greater Southwest have yielded diverse assemblages of perishable artifacts dating to the Basketmaker II/Early Agricultural period. This chapter summarizes current knowledge about the major perishable traditions of this time period and their geographical, temporal, and cultural patterning. The concept of technological style is used to briefly explore the variability of six per- ishable artifact classes: twined bags, looped fabrics, woven sandals, coiled and plaited basketry, and atlatls. Interpretative problems of the perishable record are discussed, including the limitations of phase dating, the need for more direct dat- ing of specimens, and the necessity for additional work with large unpublished museum collections. Perishables have long been viewed as important and the Mogollon region (Cosgrove 1947; Martin et markers of social identities and cultural boundaries. al. 1952), large quantities of perishables dating to the Learned motor habits related to the production of Early Agricultural/Basketmaker II have yet to be perishable artifacts, such as textiles and basketry, studied in depth.
