ADDENDUM II: A GUIDE TO RESEARCH PAPERS IN THE ARCHAEOLOGY OF NORTH CAROLINA ON FILE WITH THE ARCHAEOLOGY BRANCH OF THE NORTH CAROLINA DIVISION OF ARCHIVES AND HISTORY Catherine E.

Appearing as Publication 13 in the Council Series, "A guide to research papers in the archaeology of North Carolina on file with the Archaeology Branch of the North Carolina Division of Archives and History" provided a list of 661 works to those involved with archaeological research or resource management. Most of these works, which cover archaeological projects throughout the state, were unpublished. In 1981, "Addendum I: A guide to research papers in the archaeology of North Carolina on file with the Archaeology Branch of the North Carolina Division of Archives and History" was printed as Publication 14 in the Council Series. Since the publication of those bibliographies, the Archaeology Branch's file of dissertations, theses, articles, and contract reports on archaeology has continued to grow. In addition, many of the major sources of published archaeological works in North Carolina have been indexed for use in environmental review at the branch. As a result, the number of additional references has led to the compilation of a third bibliography. As in the preceding bibliographies, the works listed here represent a wide variety of research interests, techniques, formats, and purposes. The geographical focus varies from excavations of single structures or surveys of one-acre plots of land to overviews of physiographic regions that include one- third of the state. The scale of reporting ranges from brief reports used to clear small earth-moving projects with an absence of archaeological sites to short articles in archaeological and historical society newsletters to reports of large-scale river basin surveys! and major excavations, Ph.D. dissertations, master's theses, and published works with wide distribution. In each citation the compiler has attempted to include the name of the Lstitution or agency that performed the work described in the report. When a performing agency is not listed in the report, the sponsoring or contracting agency (if known) is listed in its place. This reference is intended to supply the researcher with the information needed to contact directly the individuals or the institutions that have on file not only the manuscript cited, but also (presumably) the notes, photographs, and artifacts produced by the project in question. In most cases a researcher interested in past work in a particular area will not need to refer to the Archaeology Branch files. This bibliography uses the format prescribed by American Antiquity (Style Guide for American Antiquity 1979). The body of the list has been arranged alphabetically by the first author listed in the report, or by princi- pal investigator or sponsoring institution if no author was listed on the Archaeology Branch copy. An index of works arranged by county or region (when the entry deals with several counties) follows the author index. The numbers listed next to each county or region refer to the numbers found to the right of each title in the author index. Style variants such as the spellings of archeology and archaeology have been maintained. To prevent redundancy, the addresses of most of the contributing organizations have been abbreviated in individual entries. A list of these organizations appears in the appendix. Where report titles do not mention the North Carolina counties (or regions) involved, county names or regions have been added in brackets.

  • Cherokee Ethnogenesis in Southwestern North Carolina
    The following chapter is from: The Archaeology of North Carolina: Three Archaeological Symposia Charles R. Ewen – Co-Editor Thomas R. Whyte – Co-Editor R. P. Stephen Davis, Jr. – Co-Editor North Carolina Archaeological Council Publication Number 30 2011 Available online at: http://www.rla.unc.edu/NCAC/Publications/NCAC30/index.html CHEROKEE ETHNOGENESIS IN SOUTHWESTERN NORTH CAROLINA Christopher B. Rodning Dozens of Cherokee towns dotted the river valleys of the Appalachian Summit province in southwestern North Carolina during the eighteenth century (Figure 16-1; Dickens 1967, 1978, 1979; Perdue 1998; Persico 1979; Shumate et al. 2005; Smith 1979). What developments led to the formation of these Cherokee towns? Of course, native people had been living in the Appalachian Summit for thousands of years, through the Paleoindian, Archaic, Woodland, and Mississippi periods (Dickens 1976; Keel 1976; Purrington 1983; Ward and Davis 1999). What are the archaeological correlates of Cherokee culture, when are they visible archaeologically, and what can archaeology contribute to knowledge of the origins and development of Cherokee culture in southwestern North Carolina? Archaeologists, myself included, have often focused on the characteristics of pottery and other artifacts as clues about the development of Cherokee culture, which is a valid approach, but not the only approach (Dickens 1978, 1979, 1986; Hally 1986; Riggs and Rodning 2002; Rodning 2008; Schroedl 1986a; Wilson and Rodning 2002). In this paper (see also Rodning 2009a, 2010a, 2011b), I focus on the development of Cherokee towns and townhouses. Given the significance of towns and town affiliations to Cherokee identity and landscape during the 1700s (Boulware 2011; Chambers 2010; Smith 1979), I suggest that tracing the development of towns and townhouses helps us understand Cherokee ethnogenesis, more generally.

  • The Smithfield Review, Volume IV, 2000 Sarvis
    Prehistoric SouthwestVirginia Aboriginal Ocrupation, land Use, and Environmental Worldview Will Sarvis Thtive-American land and resource use in Southwest Virginia spans almost the entire scope ofNorth-American prehistory, and includes evidence of early Paleo-Indian hunters all the way up to tribal peoples who met the impact of Euroamerican occupation. Southwest Virginia prehistory shares much in common with archaeological patterns in the Southern Appalachians and greater southeastern United States, but, like any subregion, remains ultimately unique. In fact, some archaeologists argue that the western Virginia highland presents a singular version of an intermontane prehistoric culture distinct even from its neighboring mountain aboriginal cultures. One important feature of prerecorded human occupation in Southwest Virginia entails less human-induced en- vironmental change compared to surrounding lowland areas or even the proto-Cherokee highlands to the south. Long before the Virginia mountains became a Euroamerican fron- tier on the edge of advancing agricultural settlement, the region had functioned as something ofa "natural reserve" for cohesive native groups (later designated "tribes") situated in comparatively larger numbers around the area. While such groups traveled and temporarily camped in the mountains for hunting, fishing, resource gathering, or trading pur- poses, certain smaller groups of aboriginal peoples also lived in South- west Virginia for prolonged periods. All left behind archaeological evi- dence. Following is a synopsis of this evidence, an assessment ofland use and environmental impact, and finally an attempt to appreciate the pre- historic environmental worldview. During the past 20,000 years, both natural and human-induced causes have rendered dramatic changes in the environment of South- west Virginia.

Webb with contributions by Heather L. Olson and David S. Leigh January 2004 ABSTRACT/MANAGEMENT SUMMARY Cultural resource background studies have been undertaken as part of the North Shore Road Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), which is designed to determine the feasibility of and assess the potential environmental effects associated with fulfillment of a 1943 agreement among the U.S. Department of Interior (DOI), the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), Swain County, and the state of North Carolina, calling for the construction of a road along the North Shore of Fontana Lake in western North Carolina. This road proposal originated in the early 1940s with the construction of TVA’s Fontana Lake in Swain and Graham counties. Due to the inundation of parts of the Little Tennessee and Tuckasegee valleys, road access was cut off to some 44,000 acres lying above the reservoir pool on the north side of the lake. Rather than construct a road to access the area during wartime conditions, the TVA acquired the entire 44,000-acre area and subsequently transferred its ownership to Great Smoky Mountains National Park (GSMNP). Although limited road construction took place between 1948 and the early 1970s, construction was stopped in 1972 due to environmental and engineering concerns.

Chapel Hill 2008 Approved by: Chair: Vincas Steponaitis Advisor: Brett Riggs Reader: Brian Billman Reader: C. Margaret Scarry Reader: John Scarry ©2008 Jon Bernard Marcoux ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT JON BERNARD MARCOUX: Cherokee Households and Communities in the English Contact Period, A.D. 1670-1740 (Under the direction of Vincas P. Steponaitis and Brett Riggs) This study focuses on issues of culture contact and the materialization of identity through an archaeological case study of a late seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century Cherokee community located in eastern Tennessee. The English Contact period (ca. A.D. 1670-1740) was an extremely turbulent time for southeastern Indian groups marked by disease, warfare, and population movements. I examine how this chaotic period played out in the daily lives of Cherokee households. I use primary and secondary sources to develop an historical context for the English Contact period in the southeastern United States. I introduce a reliable way to identify English Contact period Cherokee occupations using pottery and glass trade bead data. I also consult artifact data in order to identify patterns associated with change and stability in the activities of daily life within Cherokee households. I find that daily life in Cherokee households changed dramatically as they coped with the shifting social, political, and economic currents of the English Contact period.

  • Revisiting Platform Mounds and Townhouses in the Cherokee Heartland: a Collaborative Approach
    REVISITING PLATFORM MOUNDS AND TOWNHOUSES IN THE CHEROKEE HEARTLAND: A COLLABORATIVE APPROACH BENJAMIN A. STEERE Department of Anthropology, Western Carolina University, Cullowhee, NC, USA This article describes the development and initial results of the Western North Carolina Mounds and Towns Project, a collaborative endeavor initiated by the Tribal Historic Preservation Office of the Eastern Band of Cherokee and the Coweeta Long Term Ecological Research Program at the University of Georgia. The goal of this project is to generate new information about the distribution of late prehistoric mounds and historic period townhouses in western North Carolina. This ongoing research has produced updated location and chronological data for Mis- sissippian period mounds and historic Cherokee townhouses, and led to the discovery of a possible location for the Jasper Allen mound. Using these new data, I suggest that David Hally’s model for the territorial size of Mississip- pian polities provides a useful framework for generating new research questions about social and political change in western North Carolina. I also posit that the cultural practice of rebuilding townhouses in place and on top of Mis- sissippian period platform mounds, a process that Christopher Rodning describes as “emplacement,” was common across western North Carolina. In terms of broader impacts, this project contributes positively to the development of indigenous archaeology in the Cherokee heartland. KEYWORDS: Cherokee Archaeology, Regional Analysis, Indigenous Archaeology, Townhouses, Mounds Prior to the late nineteenth century, the mountain is not incorporated into broader research frame- valleys of western North Carolina were marked by works (e.g., Riggs and Shumate [] on the dozens of platform mounds and townhouses built Kituwah Mound and Benyshek et al.
