Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spirit Lands of the Eagle and Bear explores advances in the prehistory and early history of Numic hunter-gatherers in the Rocky Mountain West through the presentation and analysis of archaeological and historic research on the period from the earliest established presence in the Rockies and its borderlands more than a thousand years ago to the forced removal of Ute, Shoshone, and other tribes to reservations in the mid-nineteenth century. New research into Numic archaeology, ethnohistory, and ethnography is significantly changing the understanding of migratory patterns, cultural interactions, chronology, and shared cultural-religious practices of regionally defined Numic branches and non-Numic populations of the American West. Contributors examine case studies of Ute and Shoshone material culture (ceramics, lithics, features and structures, trade and seasonal migration), chronology (dendrochronology, radiocarbon dating, thermoluminescence), and subsistence systems (hunting camps, game drives, faunal and botanical evidence of food sources). They also delineate different hunter-gatherer “ethnic groups” who co-occupied or interacted within one another’s territories through trade, raiding, or seasonal subsistence migrations, such as the Late Fremont/Ute and the Shoshone or the early Navajo/Ute and the Shoshone. With a strong emphasis on diverse cases and new and original archaeological, ethnohistoric, and ethnographic lines of evidence, Spirit Lands of the Eagle and Bear interweaves anthropological theory and innovative applications of leading-edge scientific methodologies and technologies. The book presents a cross-section of field, laboratory, and ethnohistoric studies—including indigenous consultation—that explore past, recent, and ongoing developments in Numic cultural history and prehistory. It will be of interest to scholars of Southwestern archaeology, as well as private and government cultural resource specialists and museum staff.

Download or read book Our Slippery Earth written by Kurly Tlapoyawa and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-01-23 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modern-day descendants of the Nawa peoples have inherited a complex cosmovision from their indigenous ancestors. This philosophical and scientific achievement is the product of a thorough and disciplined observation of the natural world. In Our Slippery Earth, Kurly Tlapoyawa asserts that there is a logical evolution of the Nawa cosmovision from that of a myth-based set of beliefs to a more scientific worldview grounded in pantheism. This evolution represents a profound philosophical process that allows modern day descendants of Mesoamerican civilizations to maintain their traditions in the modern world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps the most pervasive myth among New Mexican Spanish speakers is the notion that New Mexican Spanish is an archaic form of Castilian. This idea comes from the misconception that New Mexico existed in a continuous state of isolation, separated from the rest of New Spain and the later Mexican Republic by hundreds of miles and for hundreds of years, causing its colonial inhabitants to retain the language of sixteenth-century Spain. This idealized vision of Spanish "purity" has been repeated so often, and with such near-religious zeal, that is has come to be accepted as fact in many circles. However, this romanticized version of New Mexican Spanish simply doesn't exist. To cling to this myth is to ignore the complexity of New Mexico's colonial-era history, which in reality is quite different, and far more fascinating than any notion of Spanish "purity" can offer. The Indios Mexicanos that made up the bulk of New Spain's northward expansion brought with them many rich linguistic and cultural traditions, the impact of which can be felt to this very day. These Indios Mexicanos spoke a variety of Mesoamerican languages, but it was the Nawatl (Nahuatl) language of the Aztecs that would have the largest impact on the way Spanish is spoken in New Mexico. The influence and contributions made by Mesoamerican people to the state of New Mexico and Southern Colorado have been ignored for far too long. Regardless, Mesoamericans have left an indelible mark on New Mexico, and totacho - our way of talking - remains.
