Overview
Focuses on the development of village social structure
within a broad geographic and temporal framework, recognizing
border areas as particularly dynamic contexts of social
change The last prehistoric cultures to inhabit the
Middle Ohio Valley (ca. A.D. 1000–1650) are referred to as
Fort Ancient societies, which exhibited a wide variety of
Mississippian period characteristics. What is less well-known and
little understood are the social processes by which Mississippian
characteristics spread to Fort Ancient communities. Through a
comprehensive study of SunWatch, one of the few thoroughly
excavated Fort Ancient settlements, the author focuses on the
development of village social structure within a broad geographic
and temporal framework, recognizing border areas as particularly
dynamic contexts of social change. As a fundamental study of
social patterning of Fort Ancient villages, this work reveals the
interrelationships of small social units in culture change and
social structure development and provides a full reconsideration
of the Mississippian dimensions of Fort Ancient societies and a
model for future investigations of larger patterning in the
lateprehistory of the region.
