  • A Microcosm of the Theoretical Turmoil in Contemporary Archaeology” (P
    duction, these essays are “a microcosm of the theoretical turmoil in contemporary archaeology” (p. 13). JOHN K. chance, Arizona State University The Origins of Agriculture and Settled Life. By Richard s. macneish. Norman: University of Oklahoma Press, 1992. Maps. Graphs. Tables. Figures. Bibliography. Index, xix, 433 pp. Cloth. $75.00. This book is written by one of the leaders of cultural ecology. Richard MacNeish is considered the initiator of Latin American archaeological research on the ori­ gins of agriculture. His long career in pursuit of the subject has had a remarkable impact; he has provoked many polemics with his discoveries from Mexico, Belize, and Peru. This work is a synthesis of his perceptions and categorizing views of the routes of human cultural evolution that led to food production and sedentism. The first chapter is the strength of the volume. It reviews some of the models of how agriculture originated but concentrates on an evolutionary model with 17 alternatives, or adaptational choices. Of these, only 3 trajectories lead to agricul­ tural villagers, who evolve from food collectors to food producers. The changes from one stage to the next result from environmental variations (for example, seasonality, distribution of resources, changes in carrying capacity) and the avail­ ability of domesticated plants. Population pressure arguments seem relevant only in secondary developments. Environmental variation is the basis of most of the arguments over what are the necessary and sufficient conditions that trigger the change toward any of the potential routes and stages. In his complex division, MacNeish differentiates (as others have previously) between centers and noncenters of agricultural origins.

  • Histories of Maize FM-P369364.Qxd 2/21/06 4:51 PM Page Ii
    Histories of Maize FM-P369364.qxd 2/21/06 4:51 PM Page ii The Italian explorer Girolamo Benzoni (c. 1541–55) recorded the steps involved in processing husked corn to make fresh dough. First the kernels were ground with a mano and metate and then patted into small cakes and finally cooked on a comal or griddle (from Girolamo Benzoni, La historia del mondo nvovo di M. Girolamo Benzoni Milanese, Venetia, F. Rampazeto. 1565. p. 56, verso). Images such as this woodcut and accounts from various chroniclers who came to the New World emphasized the role of maize as a primary staple, the staff of life, essentially synonymous to Old World wheat and barley. These early descriptions and the later role of maize as one of the world’s primary economic staples predisposed many scholars to emphasize and, in some instances, assert that Zea mays L. was the catalyst to the devel- opment of civilization in this hemisphere. The contributions in this volume demonstrate that its role was more complex and varied than had been previously assumed. These histories of maize show that in some cases its symbolic role to ethnic identity, religion, and elite status may have been as important as its economic role to such developmental processes.

Dr. Eric O. Callen, the founder and developer of the discipline, has been dead for more than 30years, yet the ideas he developed and techniques he perfected continue to guide the discipline today as it widens analysis into more areas than he ever dreamed possible. Callen would be gratified to learn that others have extended his initial research efforts to include the routine analysis of plant macrofossils, pollen concentration values, fauna and insects, phytoliths, and more recently, immunological proteins, trace elements, gas chromatography, and the extraction and identification of DNA from prehistoric human feces. © 2006 Elsevier B.V.

  • The World According to Amaranth: Interspecies Memory in Tehuacán Valley
    u 7 The World According to Amaranth: Interspecies Memory in Tehuacán Valley Kata Beilin Indians had come to recognize that their fate and the fate of amaranth was one and the same. —John N. Cole, Amaranth: From the Past for the Future Tehuacán Valley lies between the neovolcanic mountain ranges that divide it from Oaxaca to the south and Veracruz to the east. The mountains stop the clouds coming from the oceans and, as a result, Tehuacán Valley is very dry. The clouds only manage to rise high enough to get through to the valley when hurricanes hit from the Gulf of Mexico or the Pacific Ocean. Then it rains. Sev- eral of the volcanos are active and provoke little earthquakes, especially in the summer. There is a great variety of cacti on the horizon in the south, and beyond the mountain range in the east. In the west, the mountains are closer, and the slopes climbing up to the Pico de Orizaba are covered with snow all year round. Some people know that Tehuacán Valley is the place of origin of maize, where the oldest maize samples were found by Richard MacNeish. Very few know, however, that along with maize, this was also a place from which a bio- cultural empire of amaranth extended that was decisive for the prosperity and health of pre-Hispanic communities. Amaranth’s biological qualities and indig- enous peoples’ cultural and political arrangements were so closely interrelated that, as it turned out later, they could not prosper without each other. After the conquest, amaranth disappeared from this place for many centuries only to re- turn relatively recently.

A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 1994 LD 1780 199i Copyright 1994 by Claudine Payne For my mother, Marjorie Hopkins Payne and in memory of my father, Richard McDonald Payne ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Many people contributed to this study of Mississippian capitals. At the top of the list is Dr. Jerald Milanich, my dissertation advisor, who provided assistance and advice in innumerable ways. Among other things, he arranged funding for several aspects of my investigations at the Lake Jackson site. In addition, he employed me on several museum projects and recommended me for others, thus making it possible for me to continue my research and writing. And he worked wonders when imiversity red tape occasionally snarled. I especially appreciate his unflagging patience as this project threatened to go on forever. It has been a pleasure and an honor to work with him. 1 am also grateful to the other members of my committee, Drs. WilUam Keegan, William Marquardt, Michael Moseley, and Graig Shaak, who were unfailingly supportive and helpful throughout the dissertation process. Two earUer committee members, Drs. James Henry and Prudence Rice, whose careers took them away from the University of Florida before I finished, provided valuable advice and direction in the early stages of research. 1 also thank Dr. Kathleen Deagan who graciously stepped in to fill a temporary committee gap.

  • Richard S. Macneish Papers, 1929-2001: a Finding Aid
    Richard S. MacNeish papers, 1929-2001: A Finding Aid Descriptive summary Repository: Robert S. Peabody Museum of Archaeology Collection number: 101.12 Title and dates: Richard S. MacNeish papers, 1929-2001 Creator: Richard S. MacNeish Size: 86 linear feet (70 record cartons, 18 document cases, 6 flat boxes) Language(s) of materials: The materials are predominantly in English, though some project fieldwork records are in Spanish and Chinese. A limited number of reference materials are in Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese and Japanese. Abstract: This collection is comprised primarily of papers documenting Richard S. MacNeish’s archaeological and anthropological research, scholarship, and other professional activities. Provenance These papers were donated to the Robert S. Peabody Museum of Archaeology by Richard MacNeish in 2000, with the exception of the slides comprising Series XI, which were donated to the museum by MacNeish in 1994. Processing information This collection was inventoried at the item level by various staff members and students over the course of fifteen years, 2001-2016. Additional work during this period consisted of rehousing (some folders were replaced and some photographs were sleeved), separation of some of the photographic material, separation of some of MacNeish’s personal library from his papers, and identification and description of materials by Jane Libby (MacNeish’s associate and partner at the end of his life). In 2016-2017, archivist Irene Gates completed the separation of the photographic material and MacNeish’s personal library, intellectually and physically reorganized materials into series, foldered loose items, rehoused materials into new acid-free boxes, and created this finding aid. Information in the finding aid in brackets was supplied by the archivist; all non-bracketed information was transcribed directly from the materials.
