The authors discuss the historical roots of the sub-field in detail. Locations noted in the chapter include Florida’s Alexon Bison site, the Page-Ladson sites, and Alabama’s Dust Cave. For instance, the zooarchaeological reanalysis of the Jefferson’s ground sloth (Ohio), excavated at the same time as the Old Vero site (Florida), shows clear evidence of butchering.

The Richardson site, 8AL100, has long been known as a site which has both an early seventeenth-century Spanish and a late precontact/early contact Native American component. We contend, based on the documentary and archaeological evidence, that the Richardson site is the location of the early contact and mission-period town of Potano, and that claims made concerning the White Ranch site, 8MR3538, cannot be substantiated or verified.

While these samples represent four of the physiographic regions of the valley, temporal coverage for each region is limited. The samples appear to show a similar pattern of faunal use throughout the valley, except in the upper reaches of the Savannah estuary. These similarities seem to transcend temporal parameters. Analysis of the pied mont data suggests a subsistence strategy which incorporated a wide variety of vertebrate resources into the diet, but emphasized venison as the primary source of meat. Riverine resources were also extensively used. In the estuarine end of the river valley, however, subsistence efforts produced a diverse faunal assemblage in which fish and mammals other than deer were important. It appears unwise to extend patterns derived from pied mont sites to coastal sites and vice versa . A survey of these data clearly demonstrates that much research remains to be done in the val...

"Star of the fields" Our research aims to reveal the image of the Homeland in the quiet lyrics of V.N. Sokolov and N.M. Rubtsov is based on poems of the same name by both lyricists "The Star of the Fields". The stated goal presupposes the solution of the following tasks: to analyze the main motives of poems, highlight the features of poetic language and the artistic means; define genre features and reveal the rhythmic scale of the text. In the research, we use comparative literary and analytical methods. On a thematic basis, V. Sokolov approached this issue through civic lyrics. N. Rubtsov is more interested in landscape sketching. From the point of view of the organization, V. Sokolov's size is six-foot with precise rhyme, and N. Rubtsov's is five-foot with imprecise rhyme, but they converge in their simple and unequal rhyme. The rhyming of the two poems is cross (ABAB).

The primary objective was to develop a system for screening antimicrobial peptides and other potential toxic proteins for activity against adults. The base diet was a sterilized solution of sucrose (30%) and yellow-green food coloring (0.5%) in tap water. All of the studies presented were conducted at 25ЊC, 75% RH, and a photoperiod of 14:10 (L:D) h. Adult psyllids were Ͻ7 d old when they were transferred to diet. Addition of the food coloring was necessary to prompt adults to feed. Among the feeding trials discussed, a mean of 69.1 Ϯ 3.2% adults survived for 14 d on the base sucrose diet. Survival rates of males and females were similar. Adults feeding on the sucrose diet may have ingested less food than adults feeding on citrus leaf disks based on differences in quantities of adult excrements deposited in feeding chambers. However, survival of adults feeding on leaf disks over a 2-wk period was only marginally better than survival of adults feeding on the base sucrose diet, and Þnal rates of survival of adults fed these two food sources were not signiÞcantly different.

N Subsistence remains recovered include maize, wild plants such as acorns and fruits, and a variety of fauna, especially deer, small mammals, turtle, fish, and shellfish. N Coastal sites may be smaller than inland sites and have much more shell-midden refuse with evidence of heavy exploitation of molluscs, fish, and turtles and so far no evidence of maize. N Cemeteries, burial of elites in temple mounds, possible burial mounds, and isolated burials in middens are known. N Many of the larger sites have components of other time periods. Woodland mounds sometimes have later, intrusive Fort Walton burials. N There are fewer Fort Walton temple mounds than there are burial mounds of earlier time periods (e.g., Willey 1949:455); thus the number of ceremonial sites in relation to habitation sites is reduced from that of Middle Woodland times. N Treatment of the dead was neither as distinctive nor as standardized as in Middle Woodland burial mounds. In Fort Walton sites, grave goods were more variable in number and quality and of less exotic material. However, certain burials in temple mounds are accorded special treatment. N There is notably less chipped stone in Fort Walton (e.g., Bullen 1958:346-47) than in earlier and later time periods in the same region and apparently less than is associated with contemporaneous Mississippian adaptations elsewhere in the Southeast. Imported greenstone, especially in the form of celts, is very important. N There is so far little (Gardner , 1971;; evidence for palisades or earthen embankments or ditches around mounds or any other sites, suggesting no defensive architecture, though over a third of Mississippian centers do have this Payne and Scarry 1998:41).
