Book Description
Archaeological investigations were conducted in November, 1983 near the Wappapello Lake dam, Wayne County, Missouri, as a Phase II testing program to assess the National Register of Historic Places status of the site in the direct impact zone of a proposed waste water treatment facility. The project is being funded by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineer, St. Louis District. The project area is located in the St. Francis River embayment on the Ozark Escarpment in the St. Francis River principal drainage basin and the Lower Mississippi major drainage basin. Controlled surface collecting, and machine and hand testing generated data on the artifactual content and surface and subsurface nature of the archaeological deposits. Data generated by the fieldwork revealed that the Shell Lake site is relatively undisturbed and its major component is part of the Varney Tradition, an Emergent Mississippian manifestation that was present in the Mississippi Alluvial Valley and the Eastern Ozarks ca. A.D. 650-1000. The assemblage from the Shell Lake site is compared with those from other Varney Tradition sites throughout the region. It is concluded that the site has a high degree of archaeological integrity and an extremely high potential for producing additional data.

Book Description
Prehistoric Florida societies, particularly those of the peninsula, have been largely ignored or given only minor consideration in overviews of the Mississippian southeast (A.D. 1000-1600). This groundbreaking volume lifts the veil of uniformity frequently draped over these regions in the literature, providing the first comprehensive examination of Mississippi-period archaeology in the state. Featuring contributions from some of the most prominent researchers in the field, this collection describes and synthesizes the latest data from excavations throughout Florida. In doing so, it reveals a diverse and vibrant collection of cleared-field maize farmers, part-time gardeners, hunter-gatherers, and coastal and riverine fisher/shellfish collectors who formed a distinctive part of the Mississipian southeast.

Book Description
Papers presented at a symposium at the annual meeting of the South- eastern Archaeological Conference, held in Nashville, Tenn., November 1986, explore the wide range of societal organization during the Late Woodland period (A.D. 600-900) in the Southeast, and address explicitly the kinds of explanatory models useful for understanding social integration by noting the relationships among critical variables (e.g. settlement, subsistence, exchange, demography, etc.) that affect social organization.
