项目摘要
With National Science Foundation support Drs. Joan Brenner Coltrain and Joel C. Janetski will continue their research on the timing and origins of maize agriculture in the Four Corner region of the American Southwest. The transition to food production in the American Southwest has been a topic of great interest to scholars since the beginning of professional work in the region early in the twentieth century. Some researchers argue that maize agriculture was rapidly introduced by prehistoric farming groups, migrating north from southern New Mexico and Arizona. Others contend that hunter-gatherer groups indigenous to the Four Corners region gradually became more dependent on maize over several millennia. Basketmaker sites contain the earliest evidence for farming dependency in the Four Corners region and date to as early as the mid-first century BC. The majority of these sites were excavated early in the twentieth century and yielded a distinctive material culture characterized by sandals of yucca, cedar bark and cordage, fur cloth, finely coiled basketry, twined bags and the atlatl and dart, digging sticks, hide for clothing and assorted beads and pendants including marine shell. Maize cobs were present as well as a suite of wild foods including pinyon and acorn leading to the long-standing debate noted above regarding the origins and importance of maize in Basketmaker diets. In addition to a rich and well-crafted suite of cultural artifacts, Basketmaker sites have yielded numerous, well-preserved human skeletal remains. Bone chemistry techniques introduced over the past three decades allow archaeologists to quantify dietary reliance on maize among prehistoric farming groups. Funding provided by the National Science Foundation will support the purification and analysis of collagen, the bone protein that records this information, with 100 Basketmaker burials from the Grand Gulch region of southeastern Utah. Purified bone collagen will also be accelerator radiocarbon dated providing a reliable date on each individual in the study. Previous work with Basketmaker burials from the Durango, Colorado, and Marsh Pass, Arizona, regions of the Four Corners, also funded by the National Science Foundation, revealed that Basketmaker II people there were fully reliant on maize by 400 BC with no evidence for a gradual transition to dependence on the cultigen in either area. Current research will determine if a similar pattern is evident at Grand Gulch, thought to be one of the earliest and most important Basketmaker areas. The transition to reliance on food production is a critical juncture in human history. Throughout the world, this transition resulted in the rapid expansion of human populations and increased social complexity. In the American Southwest the fundamental question asked nearly 100 years ago still has not been answered with certainty. Gathering data regarding the timing and the degree of dependence on maize among Basketmaker people is now possible through utilization of the techniques discussed above. Broader impacts bear on the repatriation of Native American remains as mandated by NAGPRA. Competing claims exist to all southwestern human remains. Establishing the temporal context of sampled burials will assist the institutions that curate these remains in their equitable repatriation. Previous work with burials from the Peabody Museum Basketmaker collection mentioned above identified numerous individuals incorrectly catalogued, dating to the Pueblo II and III rather than Basketmaker periods. Correct assignment of temporal affiliation has the potential to strongly impact decisions regarding repatriation.
在美国国家科学基金会的支持下,琼·布伦纳·科莱恩博士和乔尔·C·亚内茨基博士将继续他们对美国西南部四角地区玉米农业的时间和起源的研究。自20世纪初美国西南部地区的专业工作开始以来,该地区向粮食生产的过渡一直是学者们非常感兴趣的话题。一些研究人员认为,史前农业群体从新墨西哥州南部和亚利桑那州向北迁徙,迅速引入了玉米农业。其他人认为,在几千年的时间里,四角地区的原住民狩猎采集群体逐渐变得更加依赖玉米。制篮者遗址包含了四角地区依赖农业的最早证据,最早可以追溯到公元前一世纪中叶。这些遗址大多是在20世纪初挖掘出来的,产生了独特的物质文化,其特征是丝兰凉鞋、雪松树皮和绳索、毛皮布料、精致的编织篮子、缠绕的袋子和atlatl和飞镖、挖掘棍子、衣服皮和包括海洋贝壳在内的各种珠子和挂件。玉米棒以及包括松子和橡子在内的一系列野生食物导致了上文提到的关于玉米在Basketaker饮食中的起源和重要性的长期辩论。除了丰富和精心制作的一套文化文物外,BasketMaker遗址还出土了大量保存完好的人类骨骼遗骸。在过去30年里引入的骨化学技术使考古学家能够量化史前农业群体对玉米的饮食依赖。由国家科学基金会提供的资金将支持胶原蛋白的提纯和分析,胶原蛋白是记录这一信息的骨骼蛋白质,来自犹他州东南部大峡谷地区的100具Basketaker墓葬。提纯的骨胶原蛋白也将被加速器放射性碳测年,为研究中的每个人提供可靠的日期。之前同样由国家科学基金会资助的对四角地区科罗拉多杜兰戈和亚利桑那州马什帕斯的Basketaker埋葬进行的研究表明,到公元前400年,那里的Basketaker II人完全依赖玉米,没有证据表明这两个地区都逐渐过渡到依赖种植植物。目前的研究将确定大峡谷是否存在类似的模式,大峡谷被认为是最早和最重要的篮球制造区之一。向依赖粮食生产的转变是人类历史上的一个关键时刻。在世界各地,这一过渡导致了人口的迅速扩张和社会复杂性的增加。在美国西南部,近100年前提出的根本问题仍然没有得到确定的答案。通过利用上面讨论的技术,现在可以收集关于制篮者对玉米的时间和依赖程度的数据。根据NAGPRA的规定,遣返美洲原住民遗骸会产生更广泛的影响。所有西南部的人类遗骸都存在相互竞争的说法。确定抽样埋葬的时间背景将有助于管理这些遗骸的机构公平地遣返这些遗骸。前文提到的皮博迪博物馆制篮器收藏中的墓葬发现,许多人被错误地编目,可以追溯到普韦布洛二世和三世时期,而不是制篮者时期。对时间归属的正确分配有可能极大地影响关于遣返的决定。
