PDF-(BOOK)-Kennewick Man: The Scientific Investigation of an Ancient American Skeleton (Peopling

Almost from the day of its accidental discovery along the banks of the Columbia River in Washington State in July 1996 the ancient skeleton of Kennewick Man has garnered significant attention from scientific and Native American communities as well as public media outlets This volume represents a collaboration among physical and forensic anthropologists archaeologists geologists and geochemists among others and presents the results of the scientific study of this remarkable find Scholars address a range of topics from basic aspects of osteological analysis to advanced research focused on Kennewick Mans origins and his relationships to other populations Interdisciplinary studies comprehensive data collection and preservation and applications of technology are all critical to telling Kennewick Mans story        Kennewick Man The Scientific Investigation of an  Ancient American Skeleton is written for a discerning professional audience yet the absorbing story of the remains their discovery their curation history and the extensive amount of detail that skilled scientists have been able to glean from them will appeal to interested and informed general readers These bones lay silent for nearly nine thousand years but now with the aid of dedicated researchers they can speak about the life of one of the earliest human occupants of North America. . – .

What is the Skeleton?. The skeleton is a fast sliding winter sport, in which an individual person lies face down and rides a small sled down a frozen track. A strong start is very critical to having a successful skeleton run and wearing a pair of spiked shoes is recommended because skeleton athletes typically sprint alongside their sled for the first few seconds of a run, holding onto the sled with one hand before diving headfirst onto the sled. .

These revelations indicate to researchers that the peopling of the Americas was perhaps a more complex process than previously thought.The Clovis culture remains the benchmark for chronological, technological, and adaptive comparisons in research on peopling of the Americas.In Clovis: On the Edge of a New Understanding, volume editors Ashley Smallwood and Thomas Jennings bring together the work of many researchers actively studying the Clovis complex. The contributing authors presented earlier versions of these chapters at the Clovis: Current Perspectives on Chronology, Technology, and Adaptations symposium held at the 2011 Society for American Archaeology meetings in Sacramento, California.In seventeen chapters, the researchers provide their current perspectives of the Clovis archaeological record as they address the question: What is and what is not Clovis? Paleoamerican Origins: Beyond Clovis presents 23 up-to-date syntheses of important topics surrounding the debate over the initial prehistoric colonization of the Americas. These papers are written by some of the foremost authorities who are on the trail of the first Americans. The papers are written by some of the foremost authorities who are on the trail of the first Americans. The papers in this volume include a discussion of the archaeological evidence for Clovis and Pre-Clovis sites in North America (11 papers) and South America (2 papers). In addition, papers on the genetic evidence (2 papers) and skeletal evidence (4 papers) provide insights into the origins of the first Americans. Additional papers include ideas on the changing perceptions of Paleoamerican prehistory, public policy and science, and a comprehensive concluding synthesis. The skeleton known as Kennewick Man was discovered in 1996 by two young men along the Columbia River near Kennewick, Washington. When the skeleton was brought to Jim Chatters, a forensic anthropologist, Chatters first believed that the remains were those of a nineteenth-century pioneer. He was astonished when radiocarbon dating revealed the skeleton to be approximately 9,500 years old, making it one of the oldest skeletons ever found in North America. But what really intrigued Chatters was that despite his antiquity, Kennewick Man did not resemble modern Native Americans. So who was he, and where did he come from? Ancient Encounters is Chatters\' compelling account of his quest to find the answers to these questions-a quest that ultimately was halted by political considerations. Chatters\' investigation was cut short because local Indian groups claimed the skeleton under the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) and demanded the right to rebury the remains. The Army Corps of Engineers, which had jurisdiction over the land where Kennewick Man was found, seized the skeleton and put it into federal storage, where it remains to this day. The skeleton was not reburied, because a group of scientists whom Chatters contacted to help him in his investigation filed suit to prevent this. Their suit is scheduled to go to trial in 2001.But Ancient Encounters is much more than a story of political intrigue. This is an anthropological detective story, told by the first scientist to have studied Kennewick Man. In the short time that the skeleton was in Chatters\' hands, he learned a great deal about the man\'s life. Numerous serious injuries-including a spearpoint embedded in his hip-indicate that Kennewick Man led a dangerous, perhaps even violent, life. His physical characteristics suggest a relationship to the people of Polynesia, perhaps a common ancestry. As Chatters consulted other experts and explored museum collections, he learned that many of Kennewick Man\'s physical features were shared by other ancient skeletons discovered in the Americas. The first Americans, or Paleo-Americans, as they are known to some in the scientific community, may have arrived in the Americas earlier and by a different route than has been generally agreed. Kennewick Man may hold significant clues to the ancestry of the people of the Americas, which is why, Chatters argues, his skeleton deserves further study.Fascinating and impassioned, Ancient Encounters is an important exploration of the origins of our earliest ancestors-and a critical examination of the controversy over who owns the past. van- 601.
