  • Animal Husbandry at Pimería Alta Missions: El Ganado en el Sudoeste de Norteamérica ​ (2010)
    DOCUMENT Full-Text Barnet Pavao-Zuckerman.

    Documentary evidence from the southwestern region of North America indicates that Spanish missionaries attempted to alter the daily lives of native peoples through the introduction of Eurasian domesticated animals and animal husbandry practices. However, our understanding of the degree to which these efforts were successful is hindered by a dearth of zooarchaeological evidence. Excavations at 18th-century missions in present-day northern Sonora and southern Arizona provide an opportunity to...

  • Archaeological Excavations at the Early Historic Creek Indian Town of Fusihatchee (Phase 1, 1988-1989) (1990)
    DOCUMENT Full-Text Paula Weiss. M. Thomas Hatley. Kristen J. Gremillion. Kathryn E. Holland Brand.

    Waselkov, Cottier, and Sheldon 1990, "Archaeological Excavations at the Early Historic Creek Indian Town of Fusihatchee (Phase 1, 1988-1989)" is the site report prepared for the NSF for the Fusihatchee site (1EE191), where the zooarchaeological remains included in the Pavao-Zuckerman Fusihatchee Fauna project were originally excavated. The report authors are named as Waselkov, Cottier, and Sheldon. Other authors listed on tDAR are contributors to a chapter. This is a report to the National...

  • Changes in Animal Use through Time at Fusihatchee (1EE191) (1999)
    DOCUMENT Full-Text Barnet Pavao-Zuckerman. Daniel C. Weinand. Elizabeth J. Reitz.

    Archaeological sites appropriate for the study of subsistence change resulting from European-Native American contact are uncommon in the southeastern United States. One of these sites is Fusihatchee (1EE191), a Creek town in what is now Alabama. Materials from Fusihatchee were deposited during four time periods spanning the Contact Period, permitting a diachronic analysis of Creek subsistence practices. Vertebrate and some invertebrate remains were studied. The Late Mississippian component...

  • Culture Contact and Subsistence Change at Fusihatchee (1EE191) (2001)
    DOCUMENT Full-Text Barnet Pavao-Zuckerman.

    Archaeological evidence from Colonial period Native American sites in southeastern North America document dramatic changes in many aspects of Native American life. In contrast, studies of zooarchaeological remains from the Colonial period indicate that subsistence systems changed very little in spite of the introduction of domestic animals. However, few zooarchaeological assemblages from sites with both precolonial and colonial occupations have been studied. The pre-Creek and Creek site of...

  • Deerskins and Domesticates: Creek Subsistence and Economic Strategies in the Historic Period (2007)
    DOCUMENT Full-Text Barnet Pavao-Zuckerman.

    Previous research indicates that, following European colonization, animal husbandry did not replace hunting as the primary source of meat in the diet of southeastern Native Americans until the early nineteenth century. However, while the introduction of Eurasian domesticated animals had little immediate impact on the lives of indigenous peoples in the Southeast,the expansion of the European market economy had profound implications for the economic and subsistence strategies of Native Americans...

  • Faunal Remains from the Apalachicola Ecosystems Project (2014)
    DOCUMENT Full-Text Chance H. Copperstone. Tracie Mayfield. Barnet Pavao-Zuckerman.

    This report presents the results of zooarchaeological analysis of faunal specimens recovered from two sites (1RU18 and 1RU27) excavated as part of a multidisciplinary NSF-funded Collaborative Research Project titled the “Apalachicola Ecosystems Project”, as well a reanalysis of a zooarchaeological assemblage from the nearby site of Spanish Fort. Report prepared for the National Science Foundation (Award # BCS-1026308).

  • Fusihatchee Faunal Data Paper Copy Scans ​ (1998)
    DOCUMENT Full-Text Barnet Pavao-Zuckerman. Nicole Mathwich. Andrew Webster.

    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...

    DOCUMENT Full-Text Barnet Pavao-Zuckerman. Andrew Webster.

    This file is a PDF scan of the original handwritten cards of zooarchaeological data for Mission Cocóspera that were compiled in 2005 by Barnet Pavao-Zuckerman at the University of Arizona. In 2019, this data was digitized into an Excel file entitled "Mission Cocóspera Faunal Data" which is included on tDAR with this project.

  • Pacasmayo Paper Copy Scans Stackelbeck Sites (2004)
    DOCUMENT Full-Text Barnet Pavao-Zuckerman.

    This file is a PDF scan of the original handwritten documents of zooarchaeological data for the Stackelbeck sites of the Pacasmayo Project. This data was created in 2004 at the University of Arizona by Barnet Pavao-Zuckerman. In 2023, this data was digitized into an Excel database entitled "Pacasmayo Faunal Data, Stackelbeck Sites" which is included on tDAR with this project. No paper copy scans exist for the Pacasmayo Dillehay sites.

  • Preceramic Period Vertebrate Use in the Jequetepeque Valley, Peru (2004)
    DOCUMENT Full-Text Barnet Pavao-Zuckerman.

    Faunal remains from the Proyecto Pacasmayo provide the opportunity to examine vertebrate subsistence strategies of inland communities during the transitional Preceramic period. Proyecto Pacasmayo excavations at Middle Preceramic sites in the Jequetepeque Valley in northern Peru reveal evidence for increasing complexity, localization, and aggregation. The Pacasmayo sites are all located within the vegetated lomas areas of two alluvial fans, Quebrada del Batán, and Quebrada Talambo. Of...

  • Rendering Economies: Native American Labor and Secondary Animal Products in the Eighteenth-Century Pimería Alta (2011)
    DOCUMENT Full-Text Barnet Pavao-Zuckerman.

    While the ostensible motivation for Spanish missionization in the Americas was religious conversion, missions were also critical to the expansion of European economic institutions in the sixteenth through nineteenth centuries. Native American labor in mission contexts was recruited in support of broader programs of colonialism, mercantilism, and resource extraction. Archaeological research throughout North America demonstrates the importance and extent of the integration of Native labor into...

  • Vertebrate Fauna from Fusihatchee (1EE191) (1997)
    DOCUMENT Full-Text Elizabeth Reitz.

    Vertebrate evidence for animal use by native groups of the interior southeastern United States during the Protohistoric and early Historic periods are rare. Additional data for this time period from the Fusihatchee site are reported here. Fusihatchee vertebrate remains are from two Protohistoric structures (Structures 6 and 8) and a Historic feature (Feature 320/335). Data from two other features (Features 390 and 2232) are commented upon briefly. The Protohistoric component includes 4,218...
