Fort Union, the headquarters of American Fur Company's Upper Missouri Outfit, dominated the region's fur and bison robe trade from 1828 to 1865. The Minneapolis-based North Western Fur Company operated the trading post from 1865 to 1867 and the U.S. Army had a contingent of soldiers there from 1864 to 1865. In 1867, the Army bought and razed Fort Union for building materials in the construction of Fort Buford, a new infantry post two miles to the east. In 1965, Congress designated Fort Union a...
The French Along the Northeast Coast at Contact (2007)
From 1604 to 1607, a French expedition explored the southeastern Canadian and New England coasts, ranging as far south as Cape Cod. During this time, the Frenchmen encountered many Native people throughout the region. Some of the interactions were peaceful, others were violent. The first winter base for this expedition is now within the boundary of Saint Croix Island International Historic Site, a unit of the National Park system. One of the Native American settlements that was visited is...
From Fire to Flood: Historic Human Destruction of Sonoran Desert Riverine Oases (1981)
This book has been written intentionally to attempt to correct the disnoetic behavior of scientists who previously analyzed historic erosion and related changes in the Sonoran Desert environment. For scientists, no less than historians, have been quite unduly disnoetic; that is, all too many have proved to be incapable of knowing what they see (Morgan 1966:31). The chapters which follow this introduction deal with such variables as those already briefly mentioned, plus a number of others. Each...

Fur Trade Archeology in the Fort Ouiatenon Vicinity: The 2012/2013 Investigations (2014)
This report details the results of magnetometry investigations at two fur trade-era sites in Tippecanoe County, Indiana. The first (12-T-9) contains the remains of Fort Ouiatenon, which was founded by the French in 1717 and served as a regional trade hub through most of the eighteenth century. The second site (12-T-335) represents the remains of a Native American village site located adjacent to Fort Ouiatenon. Test excavations were conducted at 12-T-9, resulting in the identification of a...

Fusihatchee Faunal Data (2015)
An Access database of zooarchaeology data from the Ancestral Creek Fusihatchee site (1EE191) The data were reported in a 2001 dissertation by Barnet Pavao-Zuckerman entitled "Culture Contact and Subsistence Change at Fusihatchee." The database was created in 2015 by Nicole Mathwich and uploaded to tDAR by Andrew Webster in 2018. The database was created from handwritten data cards created from 1997-1998 at the University of Georgia. These original cards have been scanned and are included in...
Fusihatchee Faunal Data Paper Copy Scans (1998)
This file is a PDF scan of the original handwritten cards of zooarchaeological data for Fusihatchee that were compiled from 1997-1998 at the University of Georgia. In 2015, this data was digitized into an Access database entitled "Fusihatchee Faunal Data" which is included on tDAR with this project. Although the PDF is text searchable, in practice this will only pull up the UGA number, not the handwritten data. The OCR does not recognize every UGA number. The PDF is mostly in the order of...

General Resources from the Long Term Vulnerability and Transformation Project
Long-Term Coupled Socioecological Change in the American Southwest and Northern Mexico: Each generation transforms an inherited social and environmental world and leaves it as a legacy to succeeding generations. Long-term interactions among social and ecological processes give rise to complex dynamics on multiple temporal and spatial scales – cycles of change followed by relative stasis, followed by change. Within the cycles are understandable patterns and irreducible uncertainties; neither...

Geophysical Investigations o f the Plum Creek Massacre Site (25PP24) along the Oregon National Historic Trail in Phelps County, Nebraska (2010)
The geophysical survey of the native pasture on the Holen family farm was conducted as part of the National Park Service's technical support of the National Historic Trails Office's investigation of the Plum Creek Massacre Site's archeological potential between August II and August 17, 2009. The geophysical inventory of the project area consisted of a magnetic survey with a dual fluxgate gradiometer across the entire field, a limited resistance survey with resistance meter and twin probe array,...
Geophysical Investigations of a Historic Sac and Fox Multiple Family Cemetery (25RH122), Richardson County, Nebraska (2007)
The geophysical investigations of a tribal/multiple family cemetery (25RH122) in Richardson County, Nebraska, were initiated by the National Park Service in response to a request from the Sac and Fox Nation of Missouri tribal council. A meeting and site tour were held with the tribal council secretary, Midwest Archeological Center Archeological Assistance and Partnership Program archeologists, and private consultant on November 18, 2002. This visit was to assess the feasibility of the...
A Geophysical Survey of Fort St. Joseph (20BE23), Niles, Michigan (2008)
Fort St. Joseph is a 17th-18th century French (and later English) mission-garrison-trading post complex located in southwest Michigan. A geophysical survey was performed and the results of the survey were tested through archaeological excavation. The geophysical methods included ground penetrating radar, electromagnetic induction, electrical resistivity, magnetic gradiometry, and magnetic susceptibility. The results of the archaeological excavations demonstrate that magnetic gradiometry was the...
The Gilded Age in Eastern Yucatán, Mexico: the Age of Betrayal or the Rise of the Middle Class? (2015)
The social transformations produced by rapid industrialization and expansion of henequen production in the late nineteenth century in western Yucatan were not what happened in Maya-speaking communities further to the east. The Gilded Age in eastern Yucatan was attenuated because communities suffered the protracted aftershocks of the Caste War of Yucatan (1847-1901), which may have repressed wealth disparities instead of heightening them. In this paper, I examine the archaeology of haciendas and...

Glyphs and Quarries of the Lower Colorado River Valley: The Results of Five Cultural Resources Surveys (1993)
The focus of this volume is the lower Colorado River valley, one of the least understood regions of the American Southwest. After over 50 years of archaeological research, the lower Colorado River remains a mystery. No major prehistoric habitation site has been located, presumably because they have all been destroyed by the river. Consequently, even the rudiments of culture history remain to be worked out. When did people arrive in the area? What did they live on? How did culture evolve in this...
