Good As with every year, 1959 can be called a year of change. Archaeol- ogically speaking, changes in the landscape that involve the disturbance of the earth are the significant ones. Here in Ohio, as in every state, these activities are everywhere. For example, the North-South superhighway is cutting across the state from Conneaut to Cincinnati, slicing through some of Ohio's richest prehistoric Indian sites. Right here in Franklin County, I know of 5 such sites disturbed or completely destroyed by construction of this highway and connecting roads. Commercial buildings and residential developments are taking over farmland at an alarming rate. Within the past 12 months at least two important sites have been destroyed here in Franklin County. In many areas, as we saw in western Kentucky just a few weeks ago, the damming up of rivers is flooding thousands of acres of archaeologi- cally rich land. It is the obligation of every ASO member, I think, to be alert to such changes as these in his own area. And to act quickly, when each pro­ ject is first announced, to salvage whatever archaeological sites are threatened. Get your fellow ASO members to help you conduct the best possible salvage operation before construction or flooding becomes an immediate threat. The earlier you start, the more scientific and painstaking your "dig" can be planned and carried out. Lost sites, unexplored, can have another effect on our interests as archaeologists and collectors. Every unexplored site can mean the loss of fine artifacts, thus causing the supply available to collectors to diminish each year. This is the situation already, and it encourages the maker of fakes to take advantage of the scarcity. Remember--a man who wants to trade or sell a genuine artifact is never afraid to have other competent collectors examine it and judge its genuineness. Only the faker after the "fast buck" will hesitate. Examine carefully any piece you are thinking of acquiring — seek out other opinion if you and the owner have any doubts. While on our vacation in September, my wife Dorothy and I--along with Ed Atkinson--spent a most enjoyable afternoon and evening with Dr. and Mrs. T. Hugh Young at their home in Nashville, Tennessee. We never tire of studying their wonderful collection and visiting with these two fine people. They always welcome a visit from any of our members. Found a number of interesting artifacts on our "dig" this year. Come and see them whenever you can--you're always welcome. - 112 - CM r— •••• iff <J Guffey-type fake bird in the collection of Donald E. Kohl, Newcom- erstown, Ohio. Brown banded slate (Kentucky? ).

Atkinson, 270 Orchard Lane, Columbus 14, Ohio The discovery of Archaic burials beneath an early Adena burial mound has established for the first time that the one culture directly followed the other. This is the one most significant observation recently announced by Raymond S. Baby, Curator of the Ohio Historical Society's Archaeo­ logical Department, following many weeks' excavation of the William H. Davis Mound just north of East Main Street and a few hundred yards east of Noe-Bixby Road, Columbus. The excavation was scheduled as a salvage operation, since the mound had been greatly reduced by bulldozing from a height of 1 8 feet to 4-1/2 feet in advance of a commercial and housing development. Working to the base of the Adena mound, Ray Baby and his as­ sistants Asa Mays, Jr. and Robert M. Goslin directed a team of Ohio State students in removing 27 Adena burials. Fig. 1 shows a general view of the work, and gives some idea of the extent of the 80-foot di­ ameter mound. The investigation of two Adena sub-floor burial pits led to the dis­ covery of numerous Archaic burials made in circular pits measuring about 2-1/2 feet by 3 feet. Figs. 2 and 3 record some of the burials, and Fig. 4 shows one of the artifact associations. Location of the Adena mound burials directly above the Archaic bur­ ials was probably accidental, Baby believes. But this association is of great significance in providing the first evidence of the time relation­ ship between the two prehistoric cultures. Ohio Archaeologist plans a much more complete report in a later issue of both the Adena and the Archaic finds and their interpretation.

Jeske, Ph.D. The Kautz Site (11DU1) is a multi-component archaeological site located in the DuPage River Valley in northeastern Illinois. It was inhabited at least six different times between the Late Archaic and Late Woodland periods ca. 6000-1000 B.P. The site was excavated over the course of three field seasons between 1958 and 1961, but the results were never made public.

  • Cemeteries and Hunter-Gatherer Land Use Patterns: a Case Study from the Middle Trent Valley, Ontario
    CEMETERIES AND HUNTER-GATHERER LAND USE PATTERNS: A CASE STUDY FROM THE MIDDLE TRENT VALLEY, ONTARIO A thesis submitted to the Committee of Graduate Studies in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Faculty of Arts and Science. TRENT UNIVERSITY Peterborough, Ontario, Canada © Copyright by Samantha Leigh Walker 2015 Anthropology M.A. Graduate Program September 2015 ABSTRACT Cemeteries and Hunter-Gatherer Land-Use Patterns: A Case Study from the Middle Trent Valley, Southern Ontario Samantha Leigh Walker The principle aim of this thesis is to evaluate the applicability of the Goldstein/Kelly hypothesis, which proposes that hunter-gatherer cemeteries emerge as a product of resource competition, and function to confirm and maintain ancestral ties to critical resources. My evaluation centres on a case study of the earliest known cemeteries of the middle Trent Valley, Ontario. To determine whether these predictions are true, I investigated the ecological context of local wetland-based foraging, and undertook a locational analysis to determine if the placement of cemeteries correlates with environmental characteristics that reflect the presence of valuable resources that are unique to these locations. The analysis reveals that ancient cemeteries in the middle Trent Valley were located near seasonal riparian wetlands, possibly to secure wild rice and the variety of fauna it attracts. Through the integration of paleoecological, archaeological, and ethnographic information for the region, this research finds support for the Goldstein/Kelly hypothesis. Keywords: Ontario Archaeology, Geographic Information Systems, GIS, Environmental Modelling, Eco-Cultural Niches, Spatial Analysis, Mortuary Archaeology, Cemeteries, Hunter-Gatherers, Late Archaic, Middle Woodland, Southern Ontario.
