ILLINOIS STATE UNIVERSITY Department of Sociology and Anthropology Anthropology Program ANT 384 North American Archaeology
ILLINOIS STATE UNIVERSITY Department of Sociology and Anthropology Anthropology Program ANT 384 North American Archaeology Catalog Description: North American Archaeology 3 ANT 101 or 274 or cons inst req. Prehistoric cultures of North America, from late Pleistocene to the occupation of the continent by Europeans. Origin and development of cultural patterns traced and current problems are examined. Course Overview: Prehistoric cultures of North America are discussed from the peopling of the New World during the late Pleistocene to the occupation of the continent by Europeans. The origin and development of specific cultures is traced in several areas including the Eastern Woodlands, Southwest, West Coast, Great Basin, and Plains. This course will combine lectures with weekly labs. The objective of the labs is to expose students to original archaeological reports and articles, which will be discussed as group exercises. Student Objectives: The course has four objectives: 1. To provide students with general knowledge of the prehistory of North America. 2. To provide hands-on experience for each student in the recognition of basic attributes used in the analysis of different materials classes. 3. To teach students how each material class may be used to address specific research questions of current archaeological interest. 4. To provide students with the background to critically evaluate how archaeological analyses are conducted and what some of the major problems are in executing these analyses. Evaluation Criteria: There will be two exams, a midterm and a non comprehensive final. In addition, each undergraduate student will read one monographs (from the list below) and prepare a 4 to 6 page critique. -

Late Woodland Settlement and Subsistence in the Eastern Upper Peninsula of Michigan
LATE WOODLAND SETTLEMENT AND SUBSISTENCE IN THE EASTERN UPPER PENINSULA OF MICHIGAN By Sean Barron Dunham A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Anthropology - Doctor of Philosophy 2014 ABSTRACT LATE WOODLAND SETTLEMENT AND SUBSISTENCE IN THE EASTERN UPPER PENINSULA OF MICHIGAN By Sean Barron Dunham This research revisits the debate surrounding Late Woodland subsistence practices in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. The Late Woodland period in the Upper Great Lakes region (ca. A.D. 600 to 1600) is often characterized through models emphasizing the intensive use of a single, primary key resource, particularly maize, fall spawning fish, or wild rice. For example, current Late Woodland subsistence models for northern Michigan focus on the intensive harvest, creation of surplus, and consequent storage of fall spawning fish as the cornerstone of the settlement and subsistence strategy. New data suggests that the dominant settlement and subsistence model is incomplete, lacks explanatory value, and requires revision. This study tests the hypothesis that a suite of potential resources was both present and utilized, allowing for a more flexible set of strategies, i.e. one based upon multiple rather than a single primary resource. Archaeological evidence, ethnographic data, and pilot study results reveal that acorns, maize, and wild rice are likely resources to be incorporated into such a strategy; all can be harvested and stored in the late summer or fall as a buffer against a poor fish harvest. Each, however, also has spatial, environmental, and temporal constraints with implications bearing on archaeological site locations as well as the evidence from the sites themselves. -

The first taken approximately three times as long in situ for selection to entrants to the Western Hemisphere of maybe 15,000 years ago have produced the picture visible in the temperate zone (6).
