Bioarchaeological Investigation of Native Responses to European Colonization of La Florida

摘要 P.I. Clark Larsen SBR-9305391 众所周知，西班牙征服者对整个新大陆的美洲原住民的健康产生了毁灭性的影响，正如许多地方的人口急剧下降所记录的那样。 然而，西班牙佛罗里达（La佛罗里达）迄今为止的广泛研究结果表明，尽管旧世界病原体对当地人口的灾难性影响是重要的，也是接触的非常常见的后果，但这些影响应被视为一个复杂的多方面问题的一个方面。对于理解接触问题同样重要的是，在相对较长的一段时间内，土著人口如何应对和适应许多环境中的巨大社会，饮食和行为变化。 除了许多地区因流行病而立即减少外，在许多地区，尽管情况不断恶化，但几代幸存者继续应对新的和新颖的挑战。 必须摆脱人口变化的单一原因解释，以广泛理解1492年后美洲土著群体的健康，饮食和社会结构的下降。 这项研究将进行详细和广泛的生物考古学分析仍然从一个大区域的拉佛罗里达，并在一个很长的时间间隔。 特别是，欧洲人的到来和建立特派团的影响将被研究，沿着当地人口如何适应与活动变化相关的新需求（如：劳动力需求）和死亡（例如。更多地依赖玉米作为主食）。 * P：\anthro\jfried\9305391.abs u ~ PJPx PJ JPP.JP（Px ~ x G （I 4：V4：V：xP ı ı ı p$ pp%$ $@ M G KNH G pkG $ $ @$ $@ 伊伊 伊乌夫河 ı FTV V 4V \：4V VV%$ $ % $ $ % U V$ $ $ Gr（rPPIPPP（PIP（PPx ~VUx xN k（r VV~ V：V M） K i ı G $ GGGGG G HqN G HG 联系我们 $ $@$ G ı ı q i ı ı ııı MVV：\ \ . 一 C " $ & ( * , . $ $ $ $ F . . ：1个CCN Symbol Arial 1 CXCR1 MS LineDraw v H Q % e e = 乔纳森·弗里德兰德

Abstract P.I. Clark Larsen SBR-9305391 It has become a truism that the Spanish Conquistadores had a devastating effect on the health of Native Americans throughout the New World, as documented in various locales by dramatic population declines. However, the extensive findings to date from Spanish Florida (La Florida) indicate that, although the catastrophic effects of Old World pathogens on native populations were important and very common consequences of contact, these effects should be viewed as a single facet of a complex, multifaceted problem. Equally important for understanding the contact issue are questions relating to how native populations responded and adapted to great social, dietary, and behavioral changes in a number of settings over relatively long periods of time. Besides the immediate declines in many areas due to epidemics, in many regions, generations of survivors continued to respond to new and novel challenges despite deteriorating circumstances. It is essential to move away from single cause explanations of population change to reach a broad-based understanding of decline in health, diet, the social fabric of Native American groups after 1492. This study will undertake detailed and extensive bioarchaeological analyses of remains from a large region of La Florida, and over a long time interval. In particular, the impact of European arrival and the establishment of missions will be studied, along with how native populations accommodated new demands associated with changes in activity (eg. demands for labor) and died (eg. more reliance on maize as a dietary staple) . *** P:\anthro\jfried\9305391.abs u ~ PJPx PJ&JPP.JP(Px ~ x G (I 4:V4:V:xP ı ı ı p$ pp%$ $@ M G kNH G pkG $ $ @$ $@ i ıı ıı v ı ı ı rFTV V 4V \: 4V VV%$ $ % $ $ % U V$ $ $ $ $ Gr(rPPIPPP(PIP(PPx ~VUx xN k (r VV~ V:V M ı k i ı G $ GGGGG G HqN G HG j @ $ $@$ G ı ı q i ı ı ı ııı MVV:\ \ .
