Life in a Mississippian Warscape Common Field, Cahokia, and the Effects of Warfare【電子書籍】[ Meghan E. Buchanan ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Analyzes Mississippian daily life at Cahokia’s environs during wartime</strong></p> <p>In <em>Life in a Mississippian Warscape: Common Field, Cahokia, and the Effects of Warfare</em> Meghan E. Buchanan posits that to understand the big histories of warfare, political fragmentation, and resilience in the past archaeologists must also analyze and interpret the microscale actions of the past. These are the daily activities of people before, during, and after historical events. Within warscapes, battles take place in peoples’ front yards, family members die, and the impacts of violence in near and distant places are experienced on a daily basis. This book explores the microscale of daily lives of people living at Common Field, a large, palisaded mound center, during the period of Cahokia’s abandonment and the spread of violence and warfare throughout the Southeast.</p> <p>Linking together ethnographic, historic, and archaeological sources, Buchanan discusses the evidence that the people of Common Field engaged in novel and hybrid practices in these dangerous times. At the microscale, they adopted new ceramic tempering techniques, produced large numbers of serving vessels decorated with warfare-related imagery, adapted their food practices, and erected a substantial palisade with specially prepared deposits. The overall picture that emerges at Common Field is of a people who engaged in risk-averse practices that minimized their exposure to outside of the palisade and attempted to seek intercession from otherworldly realms through public ceremonies involving warfare-related iconography.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 5,871円

Land of Water, City of the Dead Religion and Cahokia's Emergence【電子書籍】[ Sarah E. Baires ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em><strong>Explores the embodiment of religion in the Cahokia land and how places create, make meaningful, and transform practices and beliefs</strong></em></p> <p>Cahokia, the largest city of the Mississippian mound cultures, lies outside present-day East St. Louis. <em>Land of Water, City of the Dead</em> reconceptualizes Cahokia’s emergence and expansion (ca. 1050?1200), focusing on understanding a newly imagined religion and complexity through a non-Western lens. Sarah E. Baires argues that this system of beliefs was a dynamic, lived component, based on a broader ontology, with roots in other mound societies. This religion was realized through novel mortuary practices and burial mounds as well as through the careful planning and development of this early city’s urban landscape.</p> <p>Baires analyzes the organization and alignment of the precinct of downtown Cahokia with a specific focus on the newly discovered and excavated Rattlesnake Causeway and the ridge-top mortuary mounds located along the site axes. <em>Land of Water, City of the Dead</em> also presents new data from the 1954 excavations of the ridge-top mortuary Wilson Mound and a complete analysis of the associated human remains. Through this skeletal analysis, Baires discusses the ways that Cahokians processed and buried their ancestors, identifying unique mortuary practices that include the intentional dismemberment of human bodies and burial with marine shell beads and other materials.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,200円

Feeding Cahokia Early Agriculture in the North American Heartland【電子書籍】[ Gayle J. Fritz ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>Winner of the 2020 Society for Economic Botany's Mary W. Klinger Book Award</em></p> <p><strong>An authoritative and thoroughly accessible overview of farming and food practices at Cahokia</strong></p> <p>Agriculture is rightly emphasized as the center of the economy in most studies of Cahokian society, but the focus is often predominantly on corn. This farming economy is typically framed in terms of ruling elites living in mound centers who demanded tribute and a mass surplus to be hoarded or distributed as they saw fit. Farmers are cast as commoners who grew enough surplus corn to provide for the elites.</p> <p><em>Feeding Cahokia: Early Agriculture in the North American Heartland</em> presents evidence to demonstrate that the emphasis on corn has created a distorted picture of Cahokia’s agricultural practices. Farming at Cahokia was biologically diverse and, as such, less prone to risk than was maize-dominated agriculture. Gayle J. Fritz shows that the division between the so-called elites and commoners simplifies and misrepresents the statuses of farmersーa workforce consisting of adult women and their daughters who belonged to kin groups crosscutting all levels of the Cahokian social order. Many farmers had considerable influence and decision-making authority, and they were valued for their economic contributions, their skills, and their expertise in all matters relating to soils and crops. Fritz examines the possible roles played by farmers in the processes of producing and preparing food and in maintaining cosmological balance.</p> <p>This highly accessible narrative by an internationally known paleoethnobotanist highlights the biologically diverse agricultural system by focusing on plants, such as erect knotweed, chenopod, and maygrass, which were domesticated in the midcontinent and grown by generations of farmers before Cahokia Mounds grew to be the largest Native American population center north of Mexico. Fritz also looks at traditional farming systems to apply strategies that would be helpful to modern agriculture, including reviving wild and weedy descendants of these lost crops for redomestication. With a wealth of detail on specific sites, traditional foods, artifacts such as famous figurines, and color photos of significant plants, <em>Feeding Cahokia</em> will satisfy both scholars and interested readers.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,200円

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em><strong>Provides a theoretical explanation of how prehistoric Cahokia became a stratified society</strong></em></p> <p>Considering Cahokia in terms of class struggle, Pauketat claims that the political consolidation in this region of the Mississippi Valley happened quite suddenly, around A.D. 1000, after which the lords of Cahokia innovated strategies to preserve their power and ultimately emerged as divine chiefs. The new ideas and new data in this volume will invigorate the debate surrounding one of the most important developments in North American prehistory.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,733円

But not all is fine and stable in glorious Cahokia. To the astonishment of the ruling clan, an attempt is made on the living god's life.

The Cahokia Mounds【電子書籍】[ Warren King Moorehead ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>A Dan Josselyn Memorial Publication</strong></p> <p><strong>Provides a comprehensive collection of Moorehead's investigations of the nation's largest prehistoric mound center</strong></p> <p>Covering almost fourteen square kilometers in Illinois, Cahokia Mounds State Historic Site is the largest prehistoric mound center in North America and has been designated a World Heritage Site by the United Nations. Built between A.D. 1050 and 1350, Cahokia originally contained the remains of over 100 earthen mounds that were used as places for Native American rituals, homes of chiefs, or elite tombs. Earlier scientists debated whether the mounds were part of the natural landscape, and many were destroyed by urban and industrial development</p> <p>This book is a report of archaeological investigations conducted at Cahokia from 1921 to 1927 by Warren K. Moorehead, who confirmed that the mounds were built by indigenous peoples and who worked to assure preservation of the site. The volume includes Moorehead's final 1929 report along with portions of two preliminary reports, covering both Cahokia and several surrounding mound groups.</p> <p>John Kelly's introduction to the book sets Moorehead's investigations in the context of other work conducted at Cahokia prior to the 1920s and afterwards. Kelly reviews Moorehead's work, which employed 19th-century excavation techniques combined with contemporary analytical methods, and explains how Moorehead contended with local social and political pressures.</p> <p>Moorehead's work represented important excavations at a time when little other similar work was being done in the Midwest. The reissue of his findings gives us a glimpse into an important archaeological effort and helps us better appreciate the prehistoric legacy that he helped preserve.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 4,268円

Sun Born People of Cahokia【電子書籍】[ Kathleen O'Neal Gear ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>An old enemy has returned to Cahokia with vengeance in his heart. Will the empire’s living god choose to save his city?</p> <p>A thousand years ago, the mighty Cahokian civilization dominated the North American continent. At the heart of the empire stood a vast city, teeming with tens of thousands of residents, traders, and travelers. The city of Cahokia sent settlers and priests throughout the continent, from Wisconsin to the Gulf of Mexico, carrying word of the power of their gods. People who wouldn't bow to that power were conquered or slaughtered. Power rested in one being, Morning Star, a god resurrected in the body of a living man.</p> <p>A new threat has come to the city, emissaries from a civilization that rivals and perhaps even surpasses that of Cahokia. It soon becomes apparent to the gods-possessed Lady Night Shadow Star, human sister of Morning Star, that her people could be conquered by this technologically advanced culture. With the fate of their cosmos as a wager, the people of Cahokia are faced with a battle between the gods.</p> <p>Morning Star is unwillingーor unableーto fight to defend his people. Who then, will save them?</p> <p>With <em>Sun Born</em>, the second title in the Morning Star Trilogy, W. Michael Gear and Kathleen O'Neal Gear take readers back to this amazing place with a tale of murder, magic, and the battle for a people's very soul.</p> <p>At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 908円

Cahokia's Complexities Ceremonies and Politics of the First Mississippian Farmers【電子書籍】[ Susan M. Alt ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Critical new discoveries and archaeological patterns increase understanding of early Mississippian culture and society</strong></p> <p>The reasons for the rise and fall of early cities and ceremonial centers around the world have been sought for centuries. In the United States, Cahokia has been the focus of intense archaeological work to explain its mysteries. Cahokia was the first and exponentially the largest of the Mississippian centers that appeared across the Midwest and Southeast after AD 1000. Located near present-day East St. Louis, Illinois, the central complex of Cahokia spanned more than 12 square kilometers and encompassed more than 120 earthen mounds.</p> <p>As one of the foremost experts on Cahokia, Susan M. Alt addresses long-standing considerations of eastern Woodlands archaeologyーthe beginnings, character, and ending of Mississippian culture (AD 1050?1600)ーfrom a novel theoretical and empirical vantage point. Through this case study on farmers’ immigration and resettling, Alt’s narrative reanalyzes the relationship between administration and diversity, incorporating critical new discoveries and archaeological patterns from outside of Cahokia.</p> <p>Alt examines the cultural landscape of the Cahokia flood plain and the layout of one extraordinary upland site, Grossman, as an administrative settlement where local farmers might have seen or participated in Cahokian rituals and ceremonies involving a web of ancestors, powers, and places. Alt argues that a farming district outside the center provides definitive evidences of the attempted centralized administration of a rural hinterland.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 5,336円

<p><strong>The fascinating story of a lost city and an unprecedented American civilization located in modern day Illinois near St. Louis</strong></p> <p>While Mayan and Aztec civilizations are widely known and documented, relatively few people are familiar with the largest prehistoric Native American city north of Mexico-a site that expert Timothy Pauketat brings vividly to life in this groundbreaking book.

Cahokia Mounds America's First City【電子書籍】[ William Iseminger ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>About one thousand years ago, a phenomenon occurred in a fertile tract of Mississippi River flood plain known today as the "American Bottom." This phenomenon came to be called Cahokia Mounds, America's first city.</strong></p> <p>Interpreting the rich heritage of a site like Cahokia Mounds is a balancing act; the interpreter must speak as a scholar to the general public on behalf of an entirely different civilization. Since even those three groups are splintered into myriad dialects of perspective, sometimes it is hard to know what language to use. But William Iseminger's work at the site has given him nearly four decades of practice in Cahokia Conversation 101, and he tells the story of the place and its ancient culture (as well as its place in contemporary culture) with the clarity and confidence of a native speaker.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,735円

Cahokia Jazz From the prizewinning author of Golden Hill 'the best book of the century' Richard Osman【電子書籍】[ Francis Spufford ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>A thrilling tale of murder and mystery in a city where history has run a little differently -- from the best-selling author of <em>Golden Hill</em>.</strong><br /> <strong>'Utterly immersive.'</strong> <em>Spectator</em><br /> <strong>'Thrilling.'</strong> <em>Financial Times</em><br /> <strong>'Unlike anything else you will read this year.'</strong> <em>Daily Express</em><br /> <strong>'A classic of alternative history.'</strong> <em>Observer</em><br /> <strong>'A delight.'</strong> <em>Sunday Telegraph</em><br /> It's 1922 and Americans are drinking in speakeasies, dancing to jazz, stepping quickly to the tempo of modern times. In the ancient city of Cahokia - a teeming industrial metropolis, a tinderbox of every race and creed - peace holds. Just about.<br /> But on a snowy night at the end of winter, two roughshod detectives are called to the roof of a skyscraper. Their investigation will spill the city's secrets and bring it, against a soundtrack of wailing clarinets, either to destruction or rebirth.<br /> <strong>What readers are saying:</strong><br /> ***** 'A marvellous, atmospheric, beautifully written and gripping read that dares to hope, amidst a background of bleak darkness and the pulsing joy of jazz, that I recommend highly.'<br /> ***** 'Original, imaginative, thought provoking, engrossing, engaging and beautifully written with characters who are credible and engaging. What more is there to ask for from a master at the top of his game. I enjoyed this as much as Golden Hill, which is praise indeed.'<br /> ***** 'The Yiddish Policemen's Union is an obvious point of comparison; I also got echoes of James Ellroy, though with more light in the darkness, or maybe just a greater readiness to forgive humanity's failings. There's perhaps a dash of Earthly Powers too, and at least one nod to The Leopard; exalted company, to be sure, but Cahokia Jazz can hold its head high among them.'</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,440円

Cahokia and the Archaeology of Power【電子書籍】[ Thomas E. Emerson ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Examines the authority a ruling elite exercised over the surrounding countryside through a complex of social, political, and religious symbolism</strong></p> <p>This study uses the theoretical concepts of agency, power, and ideology to explore the development of cultural complexity within the hierarchically organized Cahokia Middle Mississippian society of the American Bottom from the 11th to the 13th centuries. By scrutinizing the available archaeological settlement and symbolic evidence, Emerson demonstrates that many sites previously identified as farmsteads were actually nodal centers with specialized political, religious, and economic functions integrated into a centralized administrative organization. These centers consolidated the symbolism of such 'artifacts of power' as figurines, ritual vessels, and sacred plants into a rural cult that marked the expropriation of the cosmos as part of the increasing power of the Cahokian rulers.</p> <p>During the height of Cahokian centralized power, it is argued, the elites had convinced their subjects that they ruled both the physical and the spiritual worlds. Emerson concludes that Cahokian complexity differs significantly in degree and form from previously studied Eastern Woodlands chiefdoms and opens new discussion about the role of rural support for the Cahokian ceremonial center.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 4,055円

Cahokia: When Murder Doesn't Die【電子書籍】[ D.A. Cross ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>CHICAGO:</p> <p>The Windy City. Art and Architecture. Cronyism and Political Maneuvering. From the lake shore’s scenic drive to expressways diverged east, west and south. A cavernous horizon. Spiraled asphalt slithers a cosmopolitan jungle.</p> <p>Cold. Breathing. Unforgiving.</p> <p>Cahokia (KUH HO KEY UH), is a Native American word. It meant simply, what a thing is - the essence of itself. It is also a very small town in Southern Illinois. A place where secrets went to die ... and the place where they should stay buried. Chicago Police Lieutenant Quinton Marks heads the Homicide Division's Major Crimes Unit. The MCU. Marks and his team of four don't get the easy murder cases. The get the hard ones. The Yellow Ribbon Murders were a series of killings that rocked Chicago. Young women were being strangled and the only way to connect them to a serial killer was his signature calling card. The media labeled him The Yellow Ribbon Killer. The Chicago Police Department sent Quinton Marks and his MCU to find the killer and stop him. The MCU hounded killers, they scraped evidence. The did not relent. They were the best. And, in the case of The Yellow Ribbon Killer, they failed. The killer got away. He vanished. Many years would pass before Marks and his team were allowed to reopen the cases and seek their nemisis once more and this time, the most powerful man in Chicago was sending them. This time they couldn not fail. They couldn't fail, because The Yellow Ribbon Murders would't die - not for the victims - not for the police - and not for Dorian Willis, the future mayor of Chicago. He, most of all wanted the killer caught. For Marks and his team, a trail thought long dead would start in one location, then spiral like tentacles, intwining all those involved in this business of murder. That one place to start was Cahokia. Cahokia was the place where secrets had died ... and some of those secrets belonged to MCU Police Lieutenant Quinton Thomas Marks. Marks had not been sleeping well lately, haunted by the one that got away. His hauntings were about to extend past his dreams. Because as he and the MCU began the hunt for a ghost - The Yellow Ribbon Murders had begun All Over Again.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,193円
