  • The Impact of Chronic Violence in the Mississippian Period Central Illinois
    CHAPTER 43 ....................................... .......................................................... LIVING WITH WAR: THE IMPACT OF CHRONIC VIOLENCE IN THE MISSISSIPPIAN-PERI 0 D CENTRAL ILLINOIS RIVER VALLEY GREGORY D. WILSON THE Central Illinois River Valley (CIRV) of west-central Illinois has a complex Jistory of migration and culture contact that was strongly affected by violence (Conrad 1991; Esarey and Conrad 1998; Milner et al. 1991; Steadman 2001). Located on the northern periphery of the Mississippian cultural area, the CIRV has the totential to transform our understanding of the impact and outcomes of inter­ group violence in middle-range societies (Figures 43.1 and 43.2). In this chapter, I argue that changing patterns of violence substantially altered the lives of those who lived in this region. To make my case I discuss archaeological patterns of violence from four different periods of the late Prehistoric era: the terminal late Woodland period (AD 700 to noo), the early Mississippian period (AD noo to 1250), the middle Mississippian Period (AD 1250 to 1300 ), and the late Mississippian period (AD 1300 to 1440). MIDSOUTH AND SOUTHEAST I' Figure 43.1 Locations of regions discussed in text: CIRV, Central Illinois River Valley; LIRV, Lower Illinois River Valley; AB, American Bottom. LATE WOODLAND PERIOD The Late Woodland period was an era of intensifying hostilities across much of eastern North America (Cobb and Garrow 1996; Little 1999; Milner 2007). Inter­ group conflict ensued from adoption of a more sedentary way of life based on plant cultivation, associated population increases, and use of new military and huntiJ11 technologies such as the bow and arrow (Blitz 1988; Milner 1999:122, 2007).

  • The Social Costs of War: Investigating the Relationship Between Warfare And
    The Social Costs of War: Investigating the Relationship between Warfare and Intragroup Violence during the Mississippian Period of the Central Illinois Valley by Mallorie Ann Hatch A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved July 2015 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Jane Buikstra, Chair Katherine Spielmann Christopher Carr George Milner ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY August 2015 ABSTRACT War exacts a great social cost, not only upon its direct participants, but also upon the lives of the friends, family, and community of those who experience it. This cost is particularly evident in the increased frequencies of aggressive behaviors, including homicide, assault, and domestic violence, enacted by Western military veterans with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Similarly, among contemporary non-Westernized peoples, a cross-cultural conducted by Ember and Ember (1994) found a relationship between war and various forms of intragroup violence, including domestic violence, assaults, homicides, and violent sports. It is unknown, however, if this positive association between warfare and intragroup violence extends longitudinally for prehistoric populations uninfluenced by modern states. To test Ember and Ember’s (1994) results in an archaeological culture, this study examines whether or not an association between war and intragroup violence was present during the Mississippian Period (ca. AD 1000-1450) of the Central Illinois Valley (CIV). The Mississippian Period of the CIV represents an ideal context for examining war and violence questions, as considerable evidence of war and violence has been amassed from archaeological and bioarchaeological analyses. High rates of skeletal trauma, fortification construction, and the placement of habitations sites in defendable areas indicate war was of particular concern during this period.

  • The Chronological Distribution of Enamel Hypoplasias from Prehistoric Dickson Mounds Populations
    AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL ANTHROPOLOGY 65:259-266 (1984) The Chronological Distribution of Enamel Hypoplasias From Prehistoric Dickson Mounds Populations ALAN H. GOODMAN, GEORGE J. ARMELAGOS, AND JEROME C. ROSE Department of Orthodontics University of Connecticut Health Center, Farmington, Connecticut 06032 (A.H. G.), Department of Anthropology, Uniuersitv of Massachusetts, Amherst. Massachusetts 01003 (G.J.A.), and Department ’of Anthropology, University of Arkansas, Fayetteuille, Arkansas 72701 (J.C.R.) KEY WORDS Enamel hypoplasia, dentition, paleoepidemiology, weanling stress, development ABSTRACT The chronological distributions of enamel hypoplasias (indica- tors of nonspecific stress) are assessed for 111 individuals from two prehistoric populations from Dickson Mounds, Lewiston, Illinois. The earlier population (circa A.D. 950-1150) involves a transition from an indigenous gathering- hunting tradition to increasing adoption of Mississippian lifeways. The later population (circa A.D. 1150-1300) is fully Mississippian (MM). Based on the occurrence of hypoplasias on all permanent teeth except third molars, 14 half- year periods from birth to 7.0 years are graded for evidence of hypoplasia- stress. Both populations have a low frequency of hypoplasia which occur before 2 years of age and after 4 years of age. A common peak frequency of hypopla- sias between 2.0 and 4.0 years is suggestive of an elevated degree of stress at weaning. The peak frequency of hypoplasias is earlier in the MM (2.5-3.0 years versus 3.0-3.5 years in the pre-Mississippian population). In addition, the rise to and decline from peak frequency occurs approximately 0.5 years earlier in the MM. The earlier and sharper rise to peak frequency suggests earlier and more severe weanling-related stress.

Analyses of mortuary, settlement, and artifactual data (e.g., as summarized in Milner 1990 and Pauketat The Role of Cahokia in the 1994a), however, clearly indicate that it is the scale of Cahokia that is differ- ent, not the basic political structure, which conforms to that of chiefdom so- Evolutionof Southeastern ciety, in which leadership positions were kin-based and hereditary, with rul- ing elites drawn from ranked clans and lineages (Knight 1990).
