项目摘要

With National Science Foundation funding, Dr. Stephen Silliman will conduct a multi-year archaeological project focused on understanding Native American reservation communities in southern New England in the context of long-term colonialism. The project centers on a 225-acre reservation in southeastern Connecticut possessed by the Eastern Pequot Tribal Nation and originally granted to their ancestors in 1683. Building on previous seasons of fieldwork on this mostly undeveloped reservation, the goals are to use a suite of archaeological datasets drawn from artifacts, animal bones and shellfish, plant remains, architecture, and landscape features to examine how this indigenous community maneuvered the complex economic, political, and social pressures placed on them by Europeans and Euroamericans between 1680 and 1880. That the community exists today is testament to their survival over the last almost 325 years, but what is not at all clear yet is the process by which their material, social, and lifestyle changes actually produced this kind of continuity. An ultimate goal is to use the research results to refine general anthropological understandings of such concepts as resistance and identity as they refract through colonialism.Written documents illuminate some parameters of Eastern Pequot life and offer insight into aspects of that process, but archaeological research is necessary to access the actual lived experiences in the home and across the reservation. Therefore, a primary objective for the archaeological research is to discover and test multiple households and associated features that span the two centuries following the establishment of the reservation. To accomplish this, the research design involves intensive mapping of visible surface sites, thorough subsurface survey strategies to detect hidden sites in a forested New England environment, moderate to full-scale excavation of relevant architectural and activity areas, and an array of analytical techniques in the research laboratory to extract more specific information from material culture, animal bones, plant remains, and chemical residues.In addition to its contributions to anthropological theory and empirical studies of New World colonialism, the project will have broad impacts in science education and collaboration. The project hinges strongly on student participation in field schools, laboratory projects, research positions, and master's theses. The collaboration creates a partnership with the Eastern Pequot Tribal Nation that benefits long-term educational, research, and cultural/historic preservation goals for their community, while it simultaneously offers students the opportunity to participate in archaeological discovery and analysis, to think critically about archaeological methods and theories, and to explore collaboration with a Native American descendent community. In addition, the funded project offers training to historically under-represented groups (e.g., Native Americans) in scientific, archaeological research as it also insures that the archaeological project remains grounded in the complex realities of community life today. The project seeks substantial innovation in the collaborative realm because the future of North American archaeology may well depend on developing these relationships.
Stephen Silliman博士将开展一个为期多年的考古项目,重点是在长期殖民主义的背景下了解新英格兰南部的美洲原住民保留社区。 该项目的中心是康涅狄格州东南部的一个225英亩的保留地,由东部佩科特部落民族拥有,最初于1683年授予他们的祖先。 在这个大部分未开发的保留地上进行实地考察的前几个季节的基础上,我们的目标是使用一套从文物,动物骨骼和贝类,植物遗骸,建筑和景观特征中提取的考古数据集来研究这个土著社区如何在1680年至1880年期间接受欧洲人和欧洲美洲人对他们施加的复杂的经济,政治和社会压力。 这个社区今天的存在证明了他们在过去近325年的生存,但目前还不清楚的是,他们的物质,社会和生活方式的变化实际上产生了这种连续性。 最终的目标是利用研究成果来完善一般人类学的理解,如抵抗和身份,因为他们通过殖民主义。书面文件阐明了东佩科特生活的一些参数,并提供洞察这一过程的各个方面,但考古研究是必要的,以访问在家里和整个保留的实际生活经验。 因此,考古研究的主要目标是发现和测试保留地建立后两个世纪的多个家庭和相关特征。 为了实现这一目标,研究设计涉及到对可见地表遗址的密集测绘,彻底的地下调查策略,以检测森林覆盖的新英格兰环境中的隐藏遗址,对相关建筑和活动区域进行适度到全面的挖掘,以及研究实验室中的一系列分析技术,以从物质文化,动物骨骼,植物遗骸,除了对人类学理论和新世界殖民主义的实证研究做出贡献外,该项目还将对科学教育和合作产生广泛影响。 该项目强烈依赖于学生参与实地学校,实验室项目,研究职位和硕士论文。 该合作与东部佩科特部落民族建立了伙伴关系,有利于他们社区的长期教育,研究和文化/历史保护目标,同时为学生提供参与考古发现和分析的机会,批判性地思考考古方法和理论,并探索与美洲原住民后裔社区的合作。 此外,受资助的项目还为历史上代表性不足的群体提供培训(例如,美洲原住民)在科学,考古研究,因为它也确保了考古项目仍然立足于当今社区生活的复杂现实。 该项目寻求在合作领域的实质性创新,因为北美考古学的未来很可能取决于发展这些关系。
