Wade ________________________________ Darrell G. Creel The Jumano in the First Century of Colonial Contact: Ethnohistoric and Archaeological Perspectives by Eric Austin Schroeder, B.A.; M.S. Report Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts The University of Texas at Austin May 2013 The Jumano in the First Century of Colonial Contact: Ethnohistoric and Archaeological Perspectives by Eric Austin Schroeder, MA The University of Texas at Austin, 2013 SUPERVISOR: Maria F. Wade The Jumano Indians of Texas have long been an enigma in Texas history and archeology. Many researchers from both disciplines have sought to connect the historic accounts with those of archeological assemblages, but have largely been unsuccessful. Part of the problem has been that the records tend to present problematic issues and very little information in the way of material culture. Another problem has been the tendency among archaeologists in the state to continue to lump site assemblages into larger analytical units, which in effect acts to homogenize any variability that would lend a better understanding of behavioral aspects. Recent efforts in the area of identity and social fields have opened new possibilities. Along these lines this report uses the ethnohistoric data on the Jumano to construct a frame of reference to define the Jumano identity and social field. Using the variability embedded in the Cielo Complex as a model, several sites within the Jumano range were identified for further investigation. iii Table of Contents List of

For over a century historians and archeologists working in the proto-history and historical periods of Texas and adjacent areas of the Southwest have often referred to colonial documents to bring a more nuanced understanding to the material record of the Native Americans. One of the first archeologists to employ this method was J. Charles Kelley in this work on the Patarabueye and the Jumano (Kelley, 1986). Until then, the Jumano were principally a subject of historical inquiry, and it was not until after Kelley’s work at La Junta del los Rios that they entered the paradigm of Texas archaeology. Starting from the ethnohistoric record, Kelley was able to infer the range and material assemblage of the Jumano, and after comparing this to the materials excavated at La Junta and the surrounding Trans-Pecos area, he defined what he called the Toyah focus as the most likely candidate for the Jumano. Later as new sites were excavated in central Texas, it became apparent that the Toyah archaeological manifestation was a much more sudden and geographically dispersed phenomenon. Despite what appears to be an exhaustive collection of work on the topic, much of what Toyah has become was constructed under the methodological underpinnings of the cultural-historical approach (see Black 1986; Collins, 2004; Hester 2004; Prewitt 1981; Ricklis 1994), which pose limitations when trying to investigate something as subjective as cultural identity. 1 The cultural-historical approach is a methodological system that attempts to model ethnic identity by theoretically bridging the gap between material culture and social organization, using the concept of archaeological units. According to Willey and Phillips (1958: 49) a “component” is roughly equivalent to the community, and in social terms the community represents the maximum number of people who reside together conducting face-to-face interaction; in other words, a band, a neighborhood or a village (Murdock, 1949: 79). On the other hand, the “phase”, on the social level, is implied to represent a society, which according to Smith (1955) and Johnson (1986), is a group of people who acknowledge a single political authority, recognized a single system of law and to some degree organize to resist attack from other societies. The problem when using such a scheme is that one can never really be certain that archaeological components one aggregates into a phase actually correspond to their social equivalents at the community and society levels.

CHAPTER 7 The Enduring Hopi Peter Iverson “What then is the meaning of the tricentennial observance? It is a reaffirmation of continuity and hope for the collective Hopi future.” The Hopi world is centered on and around three mesas in northeastern Arizona named First, Sec- ond, and Third. It is at first glance a harsh and rugged land, not always pleasing to the untrained eye. Prosperity here can only be realized with patience, determination, and a belief in tomorrow.1 For over 400 years, the Hopis have confronted the incursion of outside non-Indian societies. The Spanish entered Hopi country as early as 1540. Then part of Francisco Vásquez de Coronado’s explor- ing party invaded the area with characteristic boldness and superciliousness. About twenty Spaniards, including a Franciscan missionary, confronted some of the people who resided in the seven villages that now comprise the Hopi domain, and under the leadership of Pedro de Tovar, the Spanish over- came Hopi resistance, severely damaging the village of Kawaiokuh, and winning unwilling surrender.

' NOTES UPON THE ROUTES OF ESPEJO AND FARFAN TO THE MINES IN THE SIXTEENTH CENTURY By KATHARINE BARTLETT ' N 1540, Coronado's expedition penetrated the unknown I territory of Arizona and New Mexico. From Hawikuh in the Zuni country, the leader sent Tovar to visit the Hopi villages, and a few weeks later, Cardenas to see the great river of which the Hopis told. The routes taken by these dar­ ing explorers from Hawikuh to Hopi have been established and seems to coincide reasonably well with the Indian trail . between these two points.1 Arizona was not again visited by the Spanish until 1583, for the best route from Mexico to the populous Pueblo villages in the· Rio Grande valley was found to be from southern Chihuahua rather than up the west coast of Mex­ ico as Coronado had come.

  • Stormwater Management Program 2013-2018 Appendix A
    Appendix A 2012 Texas Integrated Report - Texas 303(d) List (Category 5) 2012 Texas Integrated Report - Texas 303(d) List (Category 5) As required under Sections 303(d) and 304(a) of the federal Clean Water Act, this list identifies the water bodies in or bordering Texas for which effluent limitations are not stringent enough to implement water quality standards, and for which the associated pollutants are suitable for measurement by maximum daily load. In addition, the TCEQ also develops a schedule identifying Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) that will be initiated in the next two years for priority impaired waters. Issuance of permits to discharge into 303(d)-listed water bodies is described in the TCEQ regulatory guidance document Procedures to Implement the Texas Surface Water Quality Standards (January 2003, RG-194). Impairments are limited to the geographic area described by the Assessment Unit and identified with a six or seven-digit AU_ID. A TMDL for each impaired parameter will be developed to allocate pollutant loads from contributing sources that affect the parameter of concern in each Assessment Unit. The TMDL will be identified and counted using a six or seven-digit AU_ID. Water Quality permits that are issued before a TMDL is approved will not increase pollutant loading that would contribute to the impairment identified for the Assessment Unit. Explanation of Column Headings SegID and Name: The unique identifier (SegID), segment name, and location of the water body. The SegID may be one of two types of numbers. The first type is a classified segment number (4 digits, e.g., 0218), as defined in Appendix A of the Texas Surface Water Quality Standards (TSWQS).

  • Promise Beheld and the Limits of Place
    Promise Beheld and the Limits of Place A Historic Resource Study of Carlsbad Caverns and Guadalupe Mountains National Parks and the Surrounding Areas By Hal K. Rothman Daniel Holder, Research Associate National Park Service, Southwest Regional Office Series Number Acknowledgments This book would not be possible without the full cooperation of the men and women working for the National Park Service, starting with the superintendents of the two parks, Frank Deckert at Carlsbad Caverns National Park and Larry Henderson at Guadalupe Mountains National Park. One of the true joys of writing about the park system is meeting the professionals who interpret, protect and preserve the nation’s treasures. Just as important are the librarians, archivists and researchers who assisted us at libraries in several states. There are too many to mention individuals, so all we can say is thank you to all those people who guided us through the catalogs, pulled books and documents for us, and filed them back away after we left. One individual who deserves special mention is Jed Howard of Carlsbad, who provided local insight into the area’s national parks. Through his position with the Southeastern New Mexico Historical Society, he supplied many of the photographs in this book. We sincerely appreciate all of his help. And finally, this book is the product of many sacrifices on the part of our families. This book is dedicated to LauraLee and Lucille, who gave us the time to write it, and Talia, Brent, and Megan, who provide the reasons for writing. Hal Rothman Dan Holder September 1998 i Executive Summary Located on the great Permian Uplift, the Guadalupe Mountains and Carlsbad Caverns national parks area is rich in prehistory and history.

  • Long-Term Trends in Streamflow from Semiarid Rangelands
    Global Change Biology (2008) 14, 1676–1689, doi: 10.1111/j.1365-2486.2008.01578.x Long-term trends in streamflow from semiarid rangelands: uncovering drivers of change BRADFORD P. WILCOX*, YUN HUANG* andJOHN W. WALKERw *Ecosystem Science and Management, Texas A&M University, College Station, TX 77843, USA, wTexas AgriLIFE Research, San Angelo, TX 76901, USA Abstract In the last 100 years or so, desertification, degradation, and woody plant encroachment have altered huge tracts of semiarid rangelands. It is expected that the changes thus brought about significantly affect water balance in these regions; and in fact, at the headwater-catchment and smaller scales, such effects are reasonably well documented. For larger scales, however, there is surprisingly little documentation of hydrological change. In this paper, we evaluate the extent to which streamflow from large rangeland watersheds in central Texas has changed concurrent with the dramatic shifts in vegeta- tion cover (transition from pristine prairie to degraded grassland to woodland/savanna) that have taken place during the last century. Our study focused on the three watersheds that supply the major tributaries of the Concho River – those of the North Concho (3279 km2), the Middle Concho (5398 km2), and the South Concho (1070 km2). Using data from the period of record (1926–2005), we found that annual streamflow for the North Concho decreased by about 70% between 1960 and 2005. Not only did we find no downtrend in precipitation that might explain this reduced flow, we found no corre- sponding change in annual streamflow for the other two watersheds (which have more karst parent material).

  • Texas Indians CH 4 TEXAS HISTORY First Texans
    Texas Indians CH 4 TEXAS HISTORY First Texans Native Americans adapted to and used their environment to meet their needs. Plains Indians People who move from place to place with the seasons are nomads. The main advantage of teepees was their mobility. Plains Indians The Apaches were able to attack both the Spanish and other Indian groups because of their skilled use of horses. Apaches used their skill at riding horses to assert dominance. Plains Indians The Comanche became wealthy as skilled buffalo hunters. Hunters used buffalo hides for clothing and shelter and ate the meat. All Plains Indians lived off the buffalo. Plains Indians The Comanche first entered Texas from the Great Plains. The Comanche later drove the Apache into the Mountains and Basins region of West Texas and into New Mexico. Plains Indians The Lipan and Mescalero were subgroups of the Apaches. Southeastern Indians The Caddos were a matrilineal society, which meant they traced their families through the mother’s side. Caddos farmed and practiced crop rotation to prevent the soil from wearing out. Southeastern Indians Farming changed Native American culture by creating more complex, permanent societies. Western Gulf Indians Gulf Coast Indians were different from Plains Indians because they were able to eat seafood from the Gulf, including oysters, clams, turtles and fish. Western Gulf Indians The Karankawa and Coahuiltecan were both were nomads along the Gulf Coast. They didn’t farm because they lived in a dry area. Pueblo Indians The Pueblo were from the Mountains and Basins region and built adobe homes of mud and straw.

Todd Smith, Committee Member Andy Schoolmaster, Committee Member Richard Golden, Chair of the Department of History C. Neal Tate, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Carlisle, Jeffrey D., Spanish Relations with the Apache Nations East of the Río Grande. Doctor of Philosophy (History), May 2001, 391 pp., bibliography, 206 titles. This dissertation is a study of the Eastern Apache nations and their struggle to survive with their culture intact against numerous enemies intent on destroying them. It is a synthesis of published secondary and primary materials, supported with archival materials, primarily from the Béxar Archives. The Apaches living on the plains have suffered from a lack of a good comprehensive study, even though they played an important role in hindering Spanish expansion in the American Southwest. When the Spanish first encountered the Apaches they were living peacefully on the plains, although they occasionally raided nearby tribes. When the Spanish began settling in the Southwest they changed the dynamics of the region by introducing horses. The Apaches quickly adopted the animals into their culture and used them to dominate their neighbors. Apache power declined in the eighteenth century when their Caddoan enemies acquired guns from the French, and the powerful Comanches gained access to horses and began invading northern Apache territory.
