A Method For Analyzing Census Data From Small Populations : Developed, Tested And Applied To A 1958 Census Of Suba Barrio, Paoay, Ilocos Norte, The Philippines, Stephen Aulick Million Jan 1979

A Method For Analyzing Census Data From Small Populations : Developed, Tested And Applied To A 1958 Census Of Suba Barrio, Paoay, Ilocos Norte, The Philippines, Stephen Aulick Million

Dissertations and Theses

As part of his anthropological fieldwork, in January 1958 Daniel J. Scheans took a census of Suba, an Ilokano barrio in Paoay, Ilocos Norte, the Philippines. The purpose of the thesis was. to use the Suban data to develop, describe and.test a method for analyzing census data for small populations (1000 or fewer persons).

The method was to be complete, to generate as much information as possible based on the data collected, to expose weaknesses and gaps in the data collected and in the data collection procedures, to aid future census-takers .in structuring the content of and procedures for taking …

Foragers Of The Northwest Coast Of North America: The Ecology Of Aboriginal Land Use Systems, Randall F. Schalk Dec 1978

Foragers Of The Northwest Coast Of North America: The Ecology Of Aboriginal Land Use Systems, Randall F. Schalk

Anthropology ETDs

Land-use systems among foragers may be conceptualized as a combination of home range size, mobility, and local group size. An ecological model is constructed which links these three variables to the distributional structure of food resources. It is hypothesized that along a gradient of increasing resource clumping, home range size increases, local group size increases, and mobility becomes more logistical. The model is evaluated for its capacity to account for variations in land use among a number of ethnographically documented aboriginal groups from the Northwest Coast of North America. The nature of food resources along this latitudinal gradient is discussed …

Dermatoglyphic Variability And Asymmetry Of Patients With Cleft Lip And Cleft Palate, Douglas William Owsley Dec 1978

Dermatoglyphic Variability And Asymmetry Of Patients With Cleft Lip And Cleft Palate, Douglas William Owsley

Doctoral Dissertations

Quantitative dermatoglyphic data for patients with oral-facial clefts and their first degree relatives were compared with controls. The objectives were to define the nature of the differences between those samples and to interpret the differences in terms of developmental processes.

The clinic samples were composed of Caucasian cleft lip and/or cleft palate patients and normal first degree relatives from Knox and surrounding counties in East Tennessee. The control sample consisted of 102 male and 102 female University of Tennessee students and Knoxville children. Specific diagnoses as to cleft type and associated malformations were determined by consulting clinic records. Two diagnostic …

The Lithic Assemblage Of The Hacklander Site, Allegan County, Michigan, Jerrel H. Sorensen

Masters Theses

Introduction

Orientation

In A History of American Archaeology Willey and Sabloff (1974) outline the development of archaeological method and theory in the Western Hemisphere. The authors defined 5 periods through which they traced advances in archaeology from the time Europe first discovered the New World. Each other these periods is characterized by certain attitudes and orientations toward archaeological data. Old ideas changed as new information, new tools of discovery, and new ways of interpretation and explanation transformed archaeology into what it is today.

Archaeologists are now in the Explanatory Period (Willey and Sabloff 1974:178). This period's theoretical orientation can be …

A Multivariate Analysis Of Palatal Measurements In Four Populations, David M. Glassman Dec 1978

A Multivariate Analysis Of Palatal Measurements In Four Populations, David M. Glassman

Masters Theses

This study presents a multivariate analysis based on sets of twenty-six palatal measurements from males and females of three racial groups. The analysis examines the occurrence and degree of inter- and intrapopulational relationships. Morphological interpretations are provided whenever possible for the multivariate functions and factors identified. Additionally, discriminant functions from which individuals may be classified into their proper racial and sexual group are calculated and their degree of accuracy discussed.

The data for this investigation were obtained from two skeletal collections. Representatives of Negro and White populations were provided from the Terry Collection housed at the Smithsonian Museum of Natural …


The Ducks Nest Site: A Small Mississippian Site In Warren County, Tennessee, Gerald Wesley Kline Dec 1978

The Ducks Nest Site: A Small Mississippian Site In Warren County, Tennessee, Gerald Wesley Kline

Masters Theses

Archaeological investigations conducted at the Ducks Nest site (40WR4), situated on a ridge in the Barren Fork drainage in the Eastern Highland Rim of Middle Tennessee, resulted in the excavation of a small Mississippian component consisting of two superimposed wall trench structures and six features. These cultural remains and the artifacts and ecofacts recovered in association are described and discussed. It is concluded that the Ducks Nest site was occupied on a year round basis over a limited number of years during the first half of the twelfth century A.D. by a small social group that was trophically self-sufficient.


The Mississippian Component At The Eoff I Site, Normandy Reservoir, Coffee County, Tennessee, Lloyd Norris Chapman Dec 1978

The Mississippian Component At The Eoff I Site, Normandy Reservoir, Coffee County, Tennessee, Lloyd Norris Chapman

Masters Theses

Analysis of the Mississippian component features from the Eoff I site in the Normandy Reservoir, upper Duck River, Coffee County, Tennessee, has indicated that the component represents an Early ,Mississippian Banks phase occupation dating from between A.D. 1068 and A.D. 1170. The spatial distribution of features at the site along with the artifactual content of these features suggests that a major cluster of features was placed in consistent arrangement with each of two semisubterranean structures. A storage zone is possibly indicated by a cluster of features with morphological characteristics usually associated with storage facilities and also by the significantly larger …


Folklore, Poetry, And Identity: A Study Of The Archetypes In The Poetry Of Leslie Silko, Kate Grenier Nov 1978

Folklore, Poetry, And Identity: A Study Of The Archetypes In The Poetry Of Leslie Silko, Kate Grenier

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

This paper is a study of folklore in literature; specifically, it is the study of the folklore in the poetry of Leslie Marmon Silko, a Laguna Pueblo women, and a half-breed. Her family situation, its place in the community, and its oral tradition are briefly noted, and the basic works of folklore in literature scholars are cited; therefore, the groundwork is established on which to examine the specific elements of folklore in the poems from Silko’s books, Laguna Woman and Ceremony.

Taking a Jungian approach to the archetypes in these poems, three subsequent chapters deal with three separate item of …

An Archeological Reconnaissance Of The Widening And Cutoff Of Specific Areas On The Savannah River, And The Channel Modification Of Oates Creek, Augusta, Georgia, James L. Michie Oct 1978

An Archeological Reconnaissance Of The Widening And Cutoff Of Specific Areas On The Savannah River, And The Channel Modification Of Oates Creek, Augusta, Georgia, James L. Michie

Research Manuscript Series

On March 29 and 30, 1978, and on April 5, 1978, members of the Institute of Archeology and Anthropology conducted a reconnaissance of eight river locations on the Savannah River, and a reconnaissance of Oates Creek, Augusta, Georgia. The reconnaissances were conducted under an agreement with the United States Army Corps of Engineers, Savannah District, to evaluate the areas of proposed river and creek alterations for possible impact on cultural resources. The reconnaissance failed to locate any cultural resources within the proposed areas of stream flow alteration. Cultural material is probably absent because of the unstable environment, within the immediate …
