How Many Birds Does It Take to Make a Feathered Shield? The Resources and Techniques of Mexica Featherworkers (2017)
DOCUMENT Citation Only Laura Filloy. Maria Olvido Moreno-Guzman.

The Florentine Codex is an excellent source for understanding the manufacturing techniques used by Mexica featherworkers to make luxury items. It records many of the tools and steps necessary to tie feathers and produce multicolor mosaics. Historical information about the selection of the raw materials, their storage, preparation, and handling, however, is scarce. The meticulous study of two Mexica feathered shields has allowed us to understand, not only the materials used in their manufacture,...


How Many Turkeys Did It Take to Make a Blanket? (2019)
DOCUMENT Citation Only William Lipe. Shannon Tushingham. Eric Blinman. Chuck LaRue. Laurie Webster.

This is an abstract from the "Current Research on Turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) Domestication, Husbandry and Management in North America and Beyond" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. For a thousand years, turkey feather blankets were a standard part of Ancestral Pueblo material culture in the Central Mesa Verde (CMV) area.

Miscellaneous Papers Concerning the Removal, Care, and Study of Archeological Specimens (1961)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Smithsonian Institution, Missouri Basin Project.

Most of the papers and excerpts in this book were collected during the early days of the Missouri Basin Project. In some cases publication data apparently was not written down, or was written down only in part. Many of the specimen processing methods outlined here were developed specifically for museum use and are much better suited to that than to vastly different emergency laboratory demands. For this reason they have not been used as sources for this project. In fact, the only material in...


POLLEN, STARCH, PHYTOLlTH, MACROFAUNAL, AND NITROGEN/PHOSPHOROUS ANALYSIS OF A LAVA BLISTER PIT ON THE ISLAND OF HAWAII (2005)
