Southwest Team Challenge II – What is Archaeology? (needs great journey).........................
Have you ever watched an Indiana Jones movie? If you have, you know that the image of an archeologist in Hollywood is someone who dashes around the world uncovering rare, priceless ancient treasures. But is that REALLY what archeology is? Do they all look like and act like Harrison Ford’s Indiana Jones character? The kinds of treasures they really find might surprise you …….. Let’s find out.
Marcy, Camp Counselor: . . . . Thu, Oct 5, 10:08AM PST (-0800 GMT)
Challenge 1 – Not all treasures found in archeology are gold cups or priceless jewels. What does an archeologist sometimes uncover ? Click on this button to find out what these archeologists are examining.
Marcy, Camp Counselor: . . . . Thu, Oct 5, 10:09AM PST (-0800 GMT)
Be sure to divide you class into two teams from here on out and form Team 1 and Team 2 to handle the coming challenges ....
Marcy, Camp Counselor: . . . . Thu, Oct 5, 10:09AM PST (-0800 GMT)
*Team 1 – What are they uncovering, and how does their laboratory analysis change what was previously thought about this object ?
Marcy, Camp Counselor: . . . . Thu, Oct 5, 10:10AM PST (-0800 GMT)
**Team 2 – How does this discovery change they way people thought about the Great Journey – the first migrations into North America ?
Marcy, Camp Counselor: . . . . Thu, Oct 5, 10:10AM PST (-0800 GMT)
*Team 1 – What did the archaeologists find at the site that led them to establish the first estimated date of the objects age ? Why was their suggested date seen as controversial?
Marcy, Camp Counselor: . . . . Thu, Oct 5, 10:10AM PST (-0800 GMT)
**Team 2 - What method of dating this object did the laboratory use ? And how does that method of dating work? button

***Both Teams – the name of this discovery is wrong biologically – what SHOULD it have been called? Why didn’t they know about this at first?
Marcy, Camp Counselor: . . . . Thu, Oct 5, 10:11AM PST (-0800 GMT)
Challenge 2 – When archaeologists make a discovery, the objects themselves are not all they find. What they are finding also tells them about how ancient people lived, what they believed in, and the ceremonies they practiced as part of their life. There is a brief statement in this document button under Mourning Ceremony that describes something archaeologists found on a Channel Island. What did they find ? Where did they find it ? And what did it help them come to understand ?
Marcy, Camp Counselor: . . . . Thu, Oct 5, 10:12AM PST (-0800 GMT)
Challenge 3. – WHERE archaeologists find artifacts is often as big a part of the story they tell as WHAT they find. We are going to send Team 1 and 2 to Catalina Island and then inland to Nevada to follow a seemingly strange trade route. Why did these goods move in this direction, and did NOT move to their closer neighbors to the north or south?
Marcy, Camp Counselor: . . . . Thu, Oct 5, 10:12AM PST (-0800 GMT)
*Team 1 – Tell us about the unusual objects found on Catalina at Little Harbor ( which is on the western Pacific side of the island), and how they are related to what has been found in Nevada – even up in Oregon – but have NOT been found in close neighboring tribes. button
Marcy, Camp Counselor: . . . . Thu, Oct 5, 10:12AM PST (-0800 GMT)
**Team 2 - What archaeologists have discovered at these different sites tells us what about their trade routes? You may want to read this short comment on Gabrielino language to help you understand the logical nature of this seemingly strange trade network button . What did these different Pacific Southwest villages have in common that allowed them to pass trade goods for great distances, but not to close by neighbors?
Marcy, Camp Counselor: . . . . Thu, Oct 5, 10:13AM PST (-0800 GMT)
Challenge 4 – Both Teams – study the animated map at this button - does your computer allow you to see the red arrows and trails that it is believed First People followed during the Great Journey to populate the world ? We hope so.

Accurate dating is important for putting events and objects in sequence. For example, the arrival of sophisticated carbon-14 dating methods in the 1940s caused scientists to revise their interpretation of events in Europe in prehistoric times. Ancient sites in England, Malta, and elsewhere turned out to be older than once thought. With this new information, scientists were able to paint a more accurate picture of European prehistory.
Dating methods can be relative or absolute. An absolute dating method tells the excavator the specific date of the material being studied (plus or minus a margin of error). Imagine an archaeologist needs to assign a date to a bone recovered during an excavation. Turning to carbon-14 dating, the archaeologist might discover that the bone dates from 3,500 years ago. Adding the margin of error for carbon-14 (in this case, +/- 150 years), the archaeologist can give a reliable date range for the bone: 1655-1405 B.C.

Each year, the Chumash and Gabrielino had many important ceremonies that tied their societies together by providing commonly experienced observances. These ceremonies took place at the village level, and were experienced up and down the coast and on the islands by presumably all of the native inhabitants of the Channel. At the regional level, head priests oversaw the continuity of the ceremonies, making sure that individual villages were linked together socially and spiritually by common educational experiences transmitted through public ceremonies.
In an oral society, with no written history, these ceremonies were one of the main elements of the individual’s education process, carrying traditions forwards over hundreds of generations.

which is on the western Pacific side of the island), and how they are related to what has been found in Nevada – even up in Oregon – but have NOT been found in close neighboring tribes. A Story About Beads by Dr. M Raab
One of the afternoon sessions was given by Dr. M. Raab who did a lot of research on the ROlivellaS grooved beads made by the Chumash in the Channel Islands. These beads are very special in that they are marine shell beads, rectangular in shape and have holes in them (allowing them to be strung) which was cut or ground with Native American implements until a hole was formed. This makes them unusual because many other beads made in this time period were punched through or drilled to make their hole.
Perhaps the most amazing thing Dr. Raab has discovered is that these beads have been found in unlikely places, almost mysteriously. If you look at a map of the Western United States you will be able to locate the other places they have been found. In 1991, during an *archeological dig in Little Harbor on Catalina Island, these special beads were found, along with some on San Nicholas and on the adjacent coast of the mainland (California). This was not so surprising, as we know the Chumash used beads for trading and certainly traded with other groups of Native Americans near by. But the amazing thing was the discovery of these exact kind of beads (which were not common) were also found in a cluster area of Nevada near Carson City, and in one site in central Oregon. These beads were carbon dated and found to have been all from the same time period. (It might be a good idea to get a map you can write on and mark the above mentioned locations, take a close look at them and think for a minute or two as to what this might mean before reading on.)
Well, what Dr. Raab and some other research scientists believe is that his means that the ChumashUs trade area was much larger than originally thought and yet this trade was done in very specific areas. The finding of these beads indicates that the Native Americans of the Channel Islands had connections with other cultures in the Western United States. This is a new idea. Good food for thought!

What archaeologists have discovered at these different sites tells us what about their trade routes? You may want to read this short comment on Gabrielino language to help you understand the logical nature of this seemingly strange trade network? The Gabrielino came to California from the Great Basin region of Montana and Nevada, and brought with them a language base that is classified as Uto- Axtecan, and is of Shoshonean dialect. The sound of their language - and the way it is translated into the English alphabet - shows that it is very different than their neighboring Chumash language.

does your computer allow you to see the red arrows and trails that it is believed First People followed during the Great Journey to populate the world ? It is said that human life began some 4 million years ago in East Africa. Hundreds of thousands of years ago, mankind made the leap from Africa to Asia. From there, the human community spread across the Bering Straits land bridge all the way to the southern tip of the Americas, in Patagonia. All this happened some ten thousand years before Columbus. A march of some 50,000 kilometers, from East Africa to Patagonia. Not until man can emigrate to another planet will a greater journey be undertaken.

Do you think this theory is possible ? What they think of this theory?
"Study says all U.S. Indians descended from 4 women"
in: Lancaster "New Era" (August 2, 1990, p. D-6)
A new type of genetic analysis suggests that the first
Americans all descended from a small, intrepid band of Asian
explorers who migrated across the Bering land bridge around
20,000 years ago.
The evidence, discussed at a genetics conference here
Thursday, may resolve--or inflame--a classic argument in American
anthropology over the origins of the more than 200 language
groupings of Indians dispersed throughout the New World.
By studying genes that are passed on only from mothers to
children, Dr. Douglas C. Wallace of Emory University has conclud-
ed that the aboriginal Americans represented a single migration
of relatively few individuals rather than, as some anthropolo-
gists think, many successive waves of migration from Siberia.
The Emory scientist says his findings indicate that the vast
majority of New World Indians were descended from only four women
who made the original Bering land bridge migration or whose
descendants did.
