KELLY has headed field expeditions in the southwestern United States, Mexico, Bolivia, and Pakistan during her nearly fifty-year career in archaeology and anthropology. After receiving a doctorate from the University of California at Berkeley in 1932, she began ethnographic research among the Southern Paiute and Coast Miwok Indians of California. Other fieldwork dur­ ing the 1930s included the Hodges Ruin excavation in Tucson, and applied anthropology projects in West Mexico. In 1940 Dr. Kelly moved to Mexico, where she has been involved in independent research since 1960.

Our cataloged collection consists of over 21,000 objects and tens of thousands of bulk sherd samples. This synopsis is not an exhaustive list. For more information, please contact Chief Curator Dr. Eric Kaldahl at Amerind Foundation, PO Box 400, Dragoon, AZ 85609, (520) 586- 3666, or [email protected]. Archaeological Collections Excavated Collections The Amerind conducted several excavations at prehistoric sites in southeastern Arizona. These excavations were detailed in early Amerind publications. The sites include the Gleeson Site, the Tres Alamos site, Winchester Cave, and Babocomari Village. There were also excavations conducted on Amerind Foundation property in Texas Canyon. Ceramics recovered from these sites suggest a range of periods contemporaneous with the Hohokam Sedentary through Classic periods. Archaeological Notes on Texas Canyon, by William Shirley Fulton.

  • Charles C. Di Peso, 1920-1982
    MEMORIALS Charles C. Di Peso, 19204982 Charles C. Di Peso died of cancer on 20 November 1982, at the Tucson Medical Center. Di Peso served for 30 years as Director of the Amerind Foundation, a non-profit research center in Dragoon, Arizona, devoted to the study of Native American culture history. His work on the prehistoric and early historic peoples of southern Arizona and northern Mexico is well known and respected. Di Peso belonged to many professional organizations, including the Society for Historical Archaeology, of which he was a founding member. His participation in the Society and in the profession will be greatly missed. Di Peso was born on 20 October 1920, in St. Louis, Missouri to Charles Corradino and Emma Klein Di Peso and grew up in Chicago Heights, Illinois. While still in high school, Di Peso was invited by Paul S. Martin of the Chicago Field Museum of Natural History to participate in an archaeological project in Colorado. The experience confirmed an interest in archaeology, which he pursued at Beloit College, working as a student assistant under Paul S. Nesbitt, director of Beloit’s Logan Museum. In 1941 Di Peso again joined Paul Martin on a Field Museum expedi- tion, this time the Pine Lawn, New Mexico, project. Di Peso graduated from Beloit in 1942 with a B.A. in Anthropology and a B.S. in Geology, and in June he married Frances Teague. From 1942 to 1946 Di Peso served in the United States Air Force as a First Lieutenant, Pilot, and Instructor in Advanced Training Course and Instru- ment Flying.

SOURCES FOR THE HISTORY OF ANTHROPOLOGY I. The Alfred Vincent Kidder Papers Douglas Givens St. Louis Community College-Meramec The papers of Alfred Vincent Kidder provide a unique and personal look into the development of Americanist archeology from 1907 through 1963. Through the kind generosity of Kidder's daughter, Faith Kidder Fuller, the papers were loaned to me with the purpose of providing resource material for my doctoral dissertation ("Alfred Vincent Kidder and the Development of Americanist Archaeology," Washington University, St. Louis, 1986). The papers were stored in a large wooden crate after Kidder's death in June, 1963, and when they arrived at my home in March, 1982, it was evident that they had not been opened since originally placed in the crate. Although the papers were not then indexed, that task was completed shortly after they were received. Kidder was one of the premier figures in Americanist archeology from 1915 through his retirement in 1950. His writings include a great variety of topics very important to the archeology of his time.

  • Mennonite Streams to Kansas from 1874 to 1890, Eight Different Streams of Mennonite Immigrants Settled in Kansas
    Unit 1 StoryCard 1 Mennonite Streams to Kansas From 1874 to 1890, eight different streams of Mennonite immigrants settled in Kansas. Emil and Waldo represent two of those ethnic groups. Swiss-Germans Emil W. Haury (1904-1992) was born in Newton to Clara K. (Ruth) Haury and Gustav A. Haury. The Haury and Ruth families originated in Switzerland and moved to German-speaking areas in search of economic opportunities and religious freedom. The lack of land for young families, poor economic conditions, and threats of compulsory military service led both families to migrate from Bavaria to the United States in the 1850s. The Haury family settled in Iowa and the Ruth family in Illinois before joining the new settlements in Kansas.

The Low German-speaking Wedels settled in Przechovka, Prussia, where they married into a Volhynian group that had originated in Switzerland. In 1874 the Wedels and Krehbiels were part of a Swiss Volhynian congregation that immigrated to the United States, settling on the Kansas prairie.
