The recently completed Avenue of Saints (AOS) highway project in the Mississippi Valley of northeastern Missouri resulted in the documentation of Woodland period sites ranging from approximately 200 cal BC to AD 1200. This article updates the existing Woodland chronology for this locality based on new information collected during the project. Data pertaining to Early, Middle, and Late Woodland sites are presented. The approximately 1,400-year occupation span provided researchers an opportunity to view diachronic trends in tool manufacture, subsistence economy, and landscape use. Based on regional comparisons of ceramic and lithic technologies and vessel decoration, the Woodland sequence in northeastern Missouri was influenced by population movements originating from east of the Mississippi River and from southern sources in the Salt River valley. 相似文献

During colonial times, an active maritime trade existed between Spain and the New World, with convoys sailing annually to
and from Mexico and returning via Havana, Cuba, after wintering in America. A database constructed from secondary and open
sources revealed that Spanish vessels were sailing over open waters along a northern path near Louisiana and a southern path
across the central Gulf of Mexico. These routes were traversed in about one month and scheduling for the convoy was based
on an understanding of the Americas’ meteorological and oceanographic climate. However, other factors may also have been involved
in the directional layout of the routes. Today these ancient routes crisscross planning areas for oil and gas lease sales
in the US Exclusive Economic Zone and the information presented in this article may aid in identifying areas where historic
shipwrecks may lie. Maps and documents found during this study helped piece together the evolution of our understanding of
the Gulf of Mexico surface circulation and how this knowledge influenced sailing during colonial times. 相似文献
