Material elaboration and monumentality: Mortuary beads, pastoralists, and social innovation in northwest Kenya (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Carla Klehm.

Megalithic architecture appeared suddenly in northwest Kenya 5000 years ago in tandem with the earliest pastoralists in the region. As Lake Turkana’s levels dropped, these people built "pillar sites" – massive feats of labor and coordination that represent one of the earliest instances of monumentality in Africa – in a brief explosion of material and architectural elaboration. The burials associated with these pillar sites are highly ornamented, with thousands of beads made from stone, bone, and...


The Measure of Meaning: Identity and Change among Two Contact-Period Cherokee Site Bead Assemblages (2016)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Melissa Frederick.

Archaeologists have studied bone, shell, and glass beads for several decades, in search of their meaning among Native American cultures. The significance of these small artifacts among the Cherokee is evident in their mythology, personal adornment, and rituals. Thus, they represent an integral part of Cherokee cultural identity. Previous archaeological research at 40GN9, linked to the sixteenth-century Cherokee town of Canasoga located in Tennessee, demonstrated the predominantly shell beads...

PROTEIN RESIDUE ANALYSIS OF SOIL FROM A BELL-SHAPED PIT AT SITE 5LA9187, COLORADO (2002)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Kathryn Puseman.

Soil around an area of beads in the bottom of a bell-shaped pit (Feature 5) at 5LA9187 in southeast Colorado was tested for possible protein residues. This soil was tested to determine if proteins were present to suggest the presence of a now decomposed pouch that might have contained the beads, as well as to detect any human proteins that would indicate the presence of a human burial in the pit.

Seeding Colonialism; European trade Beads within Native American Contexts (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Charlotte Goudge.

  The typological and scientific study of trade beads in Native American contexts has contributed a great deal to understanding contact period sites (ca. 1607–1783). The Cape Creek site, NC is a perfect example of British-indigenous connectivity in the contact period and is important for understanding interaction in the Southeast. Unlike other studies of this type that mostly focus on mortuary sites, Cape Creek is a village settlement and will therefore provide a different view of day-to-day...
