Silverheels

Part of: Iroquoian Ceramic Data

Silverheels (Scr 4-4, UB 787) is located in southern Erie Co. on the north side of Cattaraugus Creek. The early historic Iroquoian component dates to the early 17th century. Jack Schock believed there was a prehistoric Iroquoian component. Sample = 165 vessels (Harvard Peabody = 113, New York State Museum = 51). These ceramic attributes were recorded in 1983. See "The Chautauqua Phase and Other Late Woodland Sites in Southwestern New York" by Jack Michael Schock, Ph.D. dissertation, SUNY/Buffalo, 1974.

  • Silverheels Manuscript (1987)

    The author received an Arthur C. Parker grant ($700) in 1982 to study the Silverheels material. This research was conducted in1983 and the final report uploaded here was completed in 1987. It was never published. The author now feels that early 17th century "Seneca-style" ceramics, i.e. those with applique on the collar (Genoa Frilled, Seneca Barbed, etc.) form a horizon style throughout the Northeast. It seems unlikely this is the result of the relocation of women from the Seneca region.
