    Extractions: Bones, Boats, and Bison: Archeology and the First Colonization of Western North America by E. James Dixon (University of New Mexico Press; cloth, $49.95; paperback $24.95) There's still no end to the controversy over when and how humans populated the New World This attractively simple tale, still enshrined in some textbooks, is unraveling as a result of archaeological evidence accumulated over the past two decades. Nearly seventy years after excavations first revealed the Clovis big-game hunting culture, new sites and new dates in both North and South America are challenging Clovis's claim to priority. But a new consensus has not yet emerged. Instead, scholars are engaging in acrimonious public disputes while dramatic press releases with conflicting claims incite the media. Two new books on the first Americans offer to clarify the picture. One is by Thomas D. Dillehay, the T. Marshall Hahn Jr. Professor of Anthropology at the University of Kentucky, Lexington; the other is by E. James Dixon, the curator of archaeology at the Denver Museum of Natural History. Both books are definitely worth reading, but they require considerable effort and a critical eye. Both use terms and dating criteria inconsistently and contain inaccuracies or out-of-date information that will confuse the general reader.

    Extractions: Alberta Archeology BACKGROUND Columbus was not the first to discover North America, it was the Native Peoples that were already here. In fact, both the Basques and the Vikings beat Mr. Columbus too. There are now 3 main theories for the settling of the Americas, with the 3rd one being considered out to lunch and under serious dispute in the year 2000. 1) Early Americans came over the Bering Land Bridge from Asia and walked there way down through post-ice age corridors that opened up. This would have them walking down through Alberta, and early traces of campsites and such support this. 2) Early Americans went by boat and sailed down the Pacific Coast all the way down to South America, with migration inland along the way. Extremely early settlement sites in Brazil support this theory well as the sites are too early to have been just walked to. Sea travel along the coast spreads people much faster and further. 3) Early Americans came from the Europe after the last ice age by boat, following the edge of the ice sheet across the Atlantic. Some artifacts such as stylistically similar pre-Clovis spear points have been found in both Europe (Old World) and the Americas (New World) support this theory. The spear points were supposed to be a Old World thing only. Clovis points are the first distinctly North American projectile point for spears.

    Extractions: Several rune stones have been found in the United States, most notably the Kensington Runestone in Minnesota and the Heavener Stone in Oklahoma. There is considerable debate over their age and validity. The "Kensington Runestone" is a slab of gray stone, measuring 36 inches long, 16 inches wide, and 6 inches thick. It contains runic writing along the face of the stone and along one edge. The stone was found by a Minnesota farmer named Olaf Ohman in November of 1898 while a digging up a poplar tree stump on the southern slope of a 50-foot high knoll. The stone was buried face down about six inches below the surface, with the tree roots wrapped around it. Mr. Ohman and his sons saw the runic letters but did not know what they were. Unfortunately, the stone was not left in place, so they were unable to demonstrate its obvious age from the growth pattern of the tree. The stone was sent to the University of Minnesota and then to Chicago. It was was studied by runic scholars, who interpreted the inscription to be an account of Norse explorers in the 14th Century. Many authorities who have since examined the stone have claimed it a forgery, but others are equally certain of its authenticity. It is known King Magnus of Sweden sent that a party to Greenland in 1355. They never returned. It is very possible that these men were from that party. The stone bears the date of 1362. The transliteration of the text is generally accepted as:

One is to examine important anthropological questions that can be addressed with archaeological data from North America. The other is to convey an appreciation of the rich and varied sequence of cultures that flourished in North America for 12,000 years before Europeans arrived. Given the scale of the continent and the length of the semester, we cannot possibly cover all the prehistory of all of North America. Attention will be given to cultural developments in the Eastern and Southwestern U.S. The most important requirement is to keep up with the assigned reading. I’ve assigned two books. One is a textbook, Ancient North America by Brian Fagan. Fagan’s book provides the basic chronological outline of American prehistory, but since it tries to cover everything it doesn’t provide much detail about anything. Some of these details will come from articles or book chapters that are available in the Reserve Room in Morris Library. For a change of pace, the second book I’ve assigned is a novel ( Journey to the Sun , by Ernest Schusky) whose setting is the Cahokia site in Illinois ca. AD 1150.
