Download or read book Mound Builders and Monument Makers of the Northern Great Lakes 1200 1600 written by Meghan C L Howey and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2012-11-20 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rising above the northern Michigan landscape, prehistoric burial mounds and impressive circular earthen enclosures bear witness to the deep history of the region’s ancient indigenous peoples. These mounds and earthworks have long been treated as isolated finds and have never been connected to the social dynamics of the time in which they were constructed, a period called Late Prehistory. In Mound Builders and Monument Makers of the Northern Great Lakes, 1200–1600, Meghan C. L. Howey uses archaeology to make this connection. She shows how indigenous communities of the northern Great Lakes used earthen structures as gathering places for ritual and social interaction, which maintained connected egalitarian societies in the process. Examining “every available ceramic sherd from every northern earthwork,” Howey combines regional archaeological investigations with ethnohistory, analysis of spatial relationships, and collaboration with tribal communities to explore changes in the area’s social setting from 1200 to 1600. During this time, cultural shifts, such as the adoption of maize horticulture, led to the creation of the earthen constructions. Burial mounds were erected, marking claims to resources and defining areas for local ritual gatherings, while massive circular enclosures were constructed as intersocietal ceremonial centers. Together, Howey shows, these structures made up part of an interconnected, purposefully designed cultural landscape. When societies incorporated the earthworks into their egalitarian social and ritual behaviors, the structures became something more: ceremonial monuments. The first systematic examination of earthen constructions in what is today Michigan, Mound Builders and Monument Makers of the Northern Great Lakes, 1200–1600 reveals complicated indigenous histories that played out in the area before European contact. Howey’s richly illustrated investigation increases our understanding of the diverse cultures and dynamic histories of the pre-Columbian ancestors of today’s Great Lake tribes.

Download or read book Pile Construction Technology written by Mangushev R.A. and published by ASV Construction. This book was released on 2016-10-19 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pile construction technologies are considered in the context of the compact urban development in case of new construction and reconstruction. Their advantages and disadvantages are set forth. The pile pe-netration technology using the jacking-down method is discussed. Special consideration is given to the modern technology of constructing replacement and displacement piles. Besides, screw steel piles are discussed that recently have been brought into active use in production and civil con-struction including the construction of foundations for country and low-rise houses. The last chapter is dedicated to the quality control of piling works. The Appendices to this Manual include the technical features of rigs and accessories for the penetration of driven, jacked, screw, replacement and displacement piles. This Manual is intended for the students of civil construction institu-tions of higher education who study building disciplines, students of up-grading qualification institutes and engineers and technicians who specialize in geotechnical engineering.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The archaeological site at Killarney Bay, on the northeast side of Georgian Bay in Ontario, Canada, has attracted and mystified archaeologists for decades. The quantities of copper artifacts, exotic cherts, and long-distance trade goods all highlight the importance of the site during its time of occupation. Yet researchers have struggled to date the site or assign it to a particular cultural tradition, since the artifacts and mortuary components do not precisely match those of other sites and assemblages in the Upper Great Lakes. The history of archaeological investigation at Killarney Bay stretches across parts of three centuries and involves field schools from universities in two countries (Laurentian University in Canada and the University of Michigan in the United States). This volume pulls together the results from all prior research at the site and represents the first comprehensive report ever published on the excavations and finds at Killarney Bay. Heavily illustrated.
