Cahokia: Ancient America's Great City on the Mississippi by Timothy R. Pauketat
An archaeologist working on Cahota discusses his life-long engagement with this site.
Shallit Lecture given at BYU on March 6, 2014. Pre-Columbian American Indian history is best understood relationally, as bundled historical processes. Ongoing archaeological excavations of Cahokian shrines and missions in Illinois and Wisconsin help us to pinpoint the elements so bundled. Foremost among them were the moon, earth, upright posts, ancestors, and feminine powers. A new native history can now be written of a state-like expansion that reinvented "traditional" moon medicine.
