Book Falls of the Ohio River

Download or read book Falls of the Ohio River written by David Pollack and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2021-05-11 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Falls of the Ohio River presents current archaeological research on an important landscape feature: a series of low, cascading rapids along the Ohio River on the border of Kentucky and Indiana. Using the perspective of historical ecology and synthesizing data from recent excavations, contributors to this volume demonstrate how humans and the environment mutually affected each other in the area for the past 12,000 years. These essays show how the Falls region was an attractive place to live due to its diverse ecological zones and its abundance of high-quality chert. In chronological studies ranging from the Early Archaic to the Late Mississippian periods, contributors portray the rapids as at times a boundary between Native American groups living upstream and downstream and at other times a hub where cultures converged and blended into a distinct local identity. The essays analyze and track changes in stone tool styles, mortuary traditions, settlement patterns, plant consumption, and ceramic production. Together, the chapters in this volume illustrate that the Falls of the Ohio was a focal point on the human landscape throughout the Holocene era. Providing a foundation for future work in this location, they show how the region’s geography and ecology shaped the ways humans organized themselves within it and how in turn these groups impacted the area through their changing social, economic, and political circumstances.

Book Archaeology of the Lower Ohio River Valley

Download or read book Archaeology of the Lower Ohio River Valley written by Jon Muller and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although it has been occupied for as long and possesses a mound-building tradition of considerable scale and interest, Muller contends that the archaeology of the lower Ohio River Valley—from the confluence with the Mississippi to the falls at Louisville, Kentucky – remains less well-known that that of the elaborate mound-building cultures of the upper valley. This study provides a synthesis of archaeological work done in the region, emphasizing population growth and adaptation within an ecological framework in an attempt to explain the area’s cultural evolution.

Book Trouble on Scioto s Waters

Download or read book Trouble on Scioto s Waters written by Janet Shailer and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-19 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Scioto River and its tributaries, such as Big Darby Creek, Big Walnut Creek, and the Olentangy River, were once hotbeds of activity as Prehistoric and Woodland Indians used them as major transportation routes. Later the European fur trappers and frontiersmen understood their significance, followed by soldiers from three different countries. The years 1754-1814 were violent ones in Ohio's history but vital to understanding the state. The Scioto River was a transportation artery for the Shawnee, Huron, Wyandot, Delaware, Ottawa, Seneca, and Miami on their way to camps in the Pickaway Plains and beyond. In addition, the area between the Scioto River and the Big Darby Creek was once a cradle of Prehistoric and Woodland activity. This area alone has artifacts from the Paleo-Indian, Adena, Hopewell, and Fort Ancient cultures. Battelle Darby Metro Park along Big Darby Creek, for one, is continuously being studied by archaeologists for its numerous mounds and Native American artifacts that are still being discovered there. This book includes a guide to those who would like to visit sites once occupied by these First Ohioans.
