98-An Inventory Of Artifacts And Summary Of Communications Found In The Collections Of The Kalamazoo Public Museum And Associated With The Historic Period Indian Cemetery (2dkz118) Along The Kalamazoo River In Section 27, Comstock Township, Kalamazoo County, Michigan, William M. Cremin

Reports of Investigations

In 1989, I received a call from Cheryl Lyon-Jenness of the Kalamazoo Public Museum who requested that I examine a collection of Historic Period Indian artifacts that museum personnel desired to prepare for exhibition. She informed me that the museum had purchased the collection from an area resident same years ago and that the documentation surrounding the purchase suggested that it had been retrieved from an Indian burial ground on the Kalamazoo River.

My examination of the items comprising the collection did indeed reveal that these were objects of personal adornment such as are typically found with human remains of …

99-A Report Of Significant Data Recovered From Features 6 And 48 On Site 2dbe410 During Archaeological Investigations Undertaken By Western Michigan University In The Lower Galien River Valley Of Southwest Michigan, William M. Cremin, Gregory R. Walz, Daniel B. Goatley

Reports of Investigations

During Spring 1990, archaeologists from Western Michigan University conducted test excavations at a series of site loci occupying morainal uplands overlooking the wetland-choked Lower Galien River in the southwest corner of Lower Michigan. While the results of our program of research have been previously reported (Cremin 1990), it is our intent here to elaborate upon the potential significance of two observations made on site 20BE410 and not included in the project completion report prepared last year. Specifically, we refer to the recovery of a carbOnized kernel of developed Eastern Complex maize or corn retrieved from deep within Feature 6, a …

100-An Archaeological Survey Of The Kenzie Creek-Valley Power Transmission Line In Cass And Van Buren Counties, Michigan, William M. Cremin, Gregory R. Walz, Timoth D. Knapp

Reports of Investigations

Pursuant to the establishment of a cooperative agreement between Indiana Michigan Power Company of Fort Wayne, Indiana (dated 23 Apr 91) and Western Michigan University (accepted on 30 Apr 91) authorizing a Phase I archaeological assessment of the Kenzie Creek-Valley power transmission line in Cass and Van Buren counties, Michigan, archaeologists in t~e Department of Anthropology initiated a literature, documents, and site file search and between 1-6 May conducted on-site evaluation of the project area in order to determine whether proposed construction activities would have an adverse impact on potentially significant archaeological resources. There follows a report of our program …

24-Archaeological Test Excavations At The Jean Klock Park Site (2dbe413), City Of Benton Harbor, Michigan, William M. Cremin, Gregory R. Walz, Daniel B. Goatley, Timothy D. Knapp

Archaeological Technical Reports

During Fall 1990, W.M. Cremin Consulting, under contract to the City of Benton Harbor, Michigan and the Troyer Group of Mishawaka, Indiana, conducted a Phase I archaeological assessment of Jean Klock Park. The study area occupies some 90 acres (36.4 ha) in the NW 1/4 of Section 13, Benton Township (West Part) and extends from the lake shoreline on the west to the interchange of Red Arrow Highway on the east (Fig. 1).

In the late 1950's, the channel of the Paw Paw River was filled to permit construction of this interchange, and the river was diverted to its present …

Archaeological Technical Reports

With the execution of two contracts between the Community Economic Development Corporation and Western Michigan University, authorizing archaeological investigation of the Ross Field Industrial Park in Sections 8~9, Benton Charter Township, Berrien County, Michigan, archaeologists from the Department of Anthropology undertook a literature, documents, and site file search and on 3 Apr and 5 Apr 91 surveyed the study area in order to determine whether proposed construction activities would have an adverse impact on cultural resources. This Phase I program of research was, in turn, followed by Phase II survey and testing of identified resources in selected portions of the …

The Beads From Oudespost I, A Dutch East India Company Outpost, Cape, South Africa, Karlis Karklins, Carmel Schrire

BEADS: Journal of the Society of Bead Researchers

The site of a provisioning station operated by the Dutch East India Company near the Cape of Good Hope during the late 17th and early 18th centuries produced a variety of European beads of several materials. A "typical" Dutch bead assemblage of the period, it is significant because it comes from one of very few independently dated bead-producing sites in southern Africa and, as such, will be instrumental in the formulation of a chronology for the beads found in this part of Africa.

Annual Report Of The Iowa Academy Of Science, 1989-90, Paul E. Rider

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

Starting in 1976, annual reports have served as a continuing record of the activities of the Iowa Academy of Science. These augment a 100 year history of the Academy which was written in the centennial year of 1975.

This report covers the period from July 1, 1989 to June 30, 1990. It is based on the official records of the Academy (committee reports, Board minutes, correspondence) as well as the recollections, impressions and musings of the author.

Comparison Of Mass Selection And S1 Testing Recurrent-Selection Methods In Sorghum, R. E. Secrist, R. E. Atkins

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

Mass selection and S₁ testing are often used for the improvement of sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] populations. Both recurrent selection methods have a place in applied breeding programs and should be used where they are likely to be most advantageous. S₁ families of a random-mating sorghum population mass selected three cycles (C3) for individual-panicle weight [IAP1R(M)C3] were compared with S₁ families from a population (C3) advanced from the same base (CO) population by using replicated yield tests in each cycle [ IAP4R(S₁)C3]. Our objectives were to compare the performance in C3 of families developed …

Estimates Of Quantitative Genetic Parameters M Iap2b(M) Random-Mating Sorghum Population, A. J. Maves, R. E. Atkins

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

Random-mating populations of sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] are used extensively as germ plasm in the development of parental lines for hybrids. Populations improved by recurrent selection provide a useful source for the selection of superior parental lines. Our objective was to determine the effectiveness of mass selection for threshed-panicle weight by comparing the performance of lines (S₁ families) chosen randomly from CO and C4 of sorghum population IAP2B. Sixty S₁ families from each cycle were grown in five Iowa environments.

Four cycles of selection for panicle weight shifted the mean for grain yield favorably, and the range …

An Isolated Storage Vessel At Site 42sa20779 In Glen Canyon National Recreation Area: Adaptive Storage And Caching Behavior In The Prehistoric Southwest, Anne M. Wolley, Alan J. Osborn

Department of Anthropology: Faculty Publications

This report documents the excavation and analysis of a large, isolated ceramic vessel discovered in the spring of 1988 in the Hite Marina area of Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, Utah Project #89-NA-051N. Several college students from Western State College in Colorado (Dean Brian, Matt How, Cathy Arvey, and Mike Donaldson) were hiking in the area when Dean Brian discovered the pot. Aware of the possible significance of such a find, Matt How immediately contacted Park Archaeologist Kris Kincaid and informed her of the vessel's location. Matt later returned with his family, Micky and JoNell How, when archaeologists Kincaid and …

Radon In Iowa Homes: Results Of Screening Measurements, Laurent Hodges, Lynne Gillette

Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS

Homeowner-initiated short-term radon screening measurements in Iowa homes show that only about 30% of the homes have low enough radon levels - below 148 Bq/m (4.0 pC1/L) - that no follow-up measurements are necessary. Over 6 percent of the homes have screening measurements in excess of 740 Bq/m³ (20 pCi/L), a level at which prompt follow-up measurements are recommended. In all parts of the state, the range of radon results extends from low levels (below 37 Bq/m³ = 1 pCi/L) to high levels (above 740 Bq/m³). The average radon results tend to be higher than the …
