Evolutionary Process In Complex Societies And The Late Period-Cara Occupation Of Northern Highland Ecuador, John Stephen Athens Ii

Anthropology ETDs

Attempts to explain the origin of complex social systems have been consistently unsuccessful. The arguments treating this subject are not predictive and fail to account for the documented variability of complex societies. This is attributed to their fundamentally non-processual orientation in which variable dimensions of analysis are generally lacking. Because of its more elaborate format, the recently popular “systems theory” approach is examined in detail with respect to these problems. It is suggested that familiarity with the epistemology of science can be useful for achieving the goal of explanation. The study of energy dynamics in cultural systems appears to have …

Foragers Of The Northwest Coast Of North America: The Ecology Of Aboriginal Land Use Systems, Randall F. Schalk

Anthropology ETDs

Land-use systems among foragers may be conceptualized as a combination of home range size, mobility, and local group size. An ecological model is constructed which links these three variables to the distributional structure of food resources. It is hypothesized that along a gradient of increasing resource clumping, home range size increases, local group size increases, and mobility becomes more logistical. The model is evaluated for its capacity to account for variations in land use among a number of ethnographically documented aboriginal groups from the Northwest Coast of North America. The nature of food resources along this latitudinal gradient is discussed …

Introduction

Orientation

In A History of American Archaeology Willey and Sabloff (1974) outline the development of archaeological method and theory in the Western Hemisphere. The authors defined 5 periods through which they traced advances in archaeology from the time Europe first discovered the New World. Each other these periods is characterized by certain attitudes and orientations toward archaeological data. Old ideas changed as new information, new tools of discovery, and new ways of interpretation and explanation transformed archaeology into what it is today.

Archaeologists are now in the Explanatory Period (Willey and Sabloff 1974:178). This period's theoretical orientation can be …

Folklore, Poetry, And Identity: A Study Of The Archetypes In The Poetry Of Leslie Silko, Kate Grenier

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

This paper is a study of folklore in literature; specifically, it is the study of the folklore in the poetry of Leslie Marmon Silko, a Laguna Pueblo women, and a half-breed. Her family situation, its place in the community, and its oral tradition are briefly noted, and the basic works of folklore in literature scholars are cited; therefore, the groundwork is established on which to examine the specific elements of folklore in the poems from Silko’s books, Laguna Woman and Ceremony.

Taking a Jungian approach to the archetypes in these poems, three subsequent chapters deal with three separate item of …

An Archeological Reconnaissance Of The Widening And Cutoff Of Specific Areas On The Savannah River, And The Channel Modification Of Oates Creek, Augusta, Georgia, James L. Michie

Research Manuscript Series

On March 29 and 30, 1978, and on April 5, 1978, members of the Institute of Archeology and Anthropology conducted a reconnaissance of eight river locations on the Savannah River, and a reconnaissance of Oates Creek, Augusta, Georgia. The reconnaissances were conducted under an agreement with the United States Army Corps of Engineers, Savannah District, to evaluate the areas of proposed river and creek alterations for possible impact on cultural resources. The reconnaissance failed to locate any cultural resources within the proposed areas of stream flow alteration. Cultural material is probably absent because of the unstable environment, within the immediate …
