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:\ \ .

西班牙征服者对整个新大陆的美洲原住民的健康造成了毁灭性的影响，这已经成为一个不言而喻的事实，正如在不同地区的人口急剧下降所记录的那样。然而，迄今为止从西属佛罗里达（La Florida）得到的广泛发现表明，尽管旧大陆病原体对土著人口的灾难性影响是重要的，而且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，土著居民如何在相对较长的时间内对社会、饮食和行为的巨大变化做出反应和适应。除了许多地区的人口因流行病而立即下降之外，在许多地区，尽管情况不断恶化，几代幸存者仍在继续应对新的挑战。必须摆脱对人口变化的单一原因解释，对1492年以后美洲土著群体的健康、饮食和社会结构的下降有一个广泛的了解。这项研究将在很长一段时间内，对拉佛罗里达一大片地区的遗骸进行详细而广泛的生物考古分析。特别是，将研究欧洲人的到来和特派团的建立的影响，以及当地居民如何适应与活动变化有关的新需求。对劳动的要求)和死亡(如：更多地依赖玉米作为主食)。* * * P:人类学\ jfried \ \ 9305391。jj&amp；JPP。JP(Px ~ x G (I 4:V4:V:xP) $ pp%$ $@ M G kNH G pkG $ $@ $ $@ I ıı ıı V $ $ $ $@ rFTV V 4V \：4 v VV %$ $ % $ $ % U V $ $ $ $ $ Gr (rPPIPPP (PIP (PPx ~ VUx xN k (r VV ~ V: V MıkıG $ GGGGG G HqN G HG j @ $ $@$ Gıı问我ııııııMVV: \ \。​A C " $ & (*,；$ $ $ $ f .。： 1快递员符号& Arial 1快递员1 MS LineDraw v h Q % e e = Jonathan Friedlaender
