Book excerpt: Paul Schanen's fascination with Wisconsin's prehistoric people began at an early age. Schanen found his first projectile point at age 15, and that transformative experience has led to decades of his research and documentation of sites all over Wisconsin. As a student of Anthropology and Geography at the University of Wisconsin Stevens Point, Paul examined and preserved thousands of artifacts. Among this was an incredible range of Old Copper Culture pieces. Eventually, Paul went on to co-write a Wisconsin-specific Native American artifact guide: Native American Artifacts of Wisconsin. It's brief chapter about Copper artifacts left Paul feeling as though there was still much more research to be done. This eventually led to the creation of his more comprehensive book: Patina." --Bill Schulz, accomplished musician, artist, and researcherAlso by Paul Schanen, Written in Stone, Tales of the American Indian.

Download or read book This Land written by Wayne N. May and published by Hayriver Press. This book was released on 2012-06-18 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wayne May has done more work and research on the North American setting for the Book of Mormon than any single individual. The evidence he has compiled is overwhelming as a witness not only to the setting of this book of scripture, but also to the reality of the Book of Mormon as a historical record. Hugh Nibley remarked that ?...one may well ask what kind of remains the Nephites would leave us from their more virtuous days. A closer approximation to the Book of Mormon picture of Nephite culture is seen in the earth and palisade structures of the Hopewell and Adena culture areas than in the later stately piles of stone in Mesoamerica.? (Hugh Nibley, The Prophetic Book of Mormon [Salt Lake City and Provo: Deseret Book Co., Foundation of Ancient Research and Mormon Studies, 1989], 271.) The Hopewell culture, discussed in Wayne May?s, This Land, is the only civilization in the Western Hemisphere that corresponds directly, in time and space, to the events described in the Book of Mormon and the statements of the prophet and translator, Joseph?Smith. The evaporation of the Hopewell Culture has taken place as the expansion of the settlements and population centers have grown since the early 1800?s. The best preserved details, drawings, and explanations of this culture can only be found in the records of eyewitness accounts and those who were present during the many excavations undertaken before the twentieth century. In this fourth volume of This Land, Wayne has brought together the works of early scholars and archaeologists as well as contemporary authors that have been exploring these settlements, monuments, and mounds of North America in a way that should have been done decades ago. Any serious student of the Nephite record must read This Land before coming to any conclusion about the geographical setting of the Book of Mormon. The evidence contained in This Land stands as another witness and testimony of this important scripture.

Book excerpt: Spectrographic and activation analysis are used to identify trace elements in native copper ores and artifacts based on data from sources throughout the U.S. and on several artifacts from Copena sites. Their analysis suggested that the copper used to fabricate the Copena artifacts was from Great Lakes deposits, and the mechanisms of exchange responsible for the movement and dispersal of these artifacts from their source to Copena is described.

Download or read book Amulets Effigies Fetishes and Charms written by Edward J. Lenik and published by University of Alabama Press. This book was released on 2016-11-22 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rounds out Edward J. Lenik’s comprehensive and expert study of the rock art of northeastern Native Americans Decorated stone artifacts are a significant part of archaeological studies of Native Americans in the Northeast. The artifacts illuminated in Amulets, Effigies, Fetishes, and Charms: Native American Artifacts and Spirit Stones from the Northeast include pecked, sculpted, or incised figures, images, or symbols. These are rendered on pebbles, plaques, pendants, axes, pestles, and atlatl weights, and are of varying sizes, shapes, and designs. Lenik draws from Indian myths and legends and incorporates data from ethnohistoric and archaeological sources together with local environmental settings in an attempt to interpret the iconography of these fascinating relics. For the Algonquian and Iroquois peoples, they reflect identity, status, and social relationships with other Indians as well as beings in the spirit world. Lenik begins with background on the Indian cultures of the Northeast and includes a discussion of the dating system developed by anthropologists to describe prehistory. The heart of the content comprises more than eighty examples of portable rock art, grouped by recurring design motifs. This organization allows for in-depth analysis of each motif. The motifs examined range from people, animals, fish, and insects to geometric and abstract designs. Information for each object is presented in succinct prose, with a description, illustration, possible interpretation, the story of its discovery, and the location where it is now housed. Lenik also offers insight into the culture and lifestyle of the Native American groups represented. An appendix listing places to see and learn more about the artifacts and a glossary are included. The material in this book, used in conjunction with Lenik’s previous research, offers a reference for virtually every known example of northeastern rock art. Archaeologists, students, and connoisseurs of Indian artistic expression will find this an invaluable work.
