Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Virginia, 1995.

In the Delaware Valley region, and related areas, European objects are frequently found in early historic mortuary contexts associated with Delaware and Munsee groups, but they are relatively scarce in non-mortuary features. Archaeological evidence gathered from museum and private collections suggests that although European goods were rapidly integrated into mortuary ritual, other aspects of indigenous life, such as subsistence technology, were impacted at a slower rate. The results of this analysis indicate that the importance of European goods in mortuary systems lies primarily in their meaning as objects of personal ornamentation, and sometimes in their role as grave offerings. Archaeological and ethnohistorical evidence is used to trace how mortuary ritual and the use of personal ornamentation in ritual contexts was elaborated among Munsee and Delaware groups as both a public and a private symbol. The evidence suggests that the more elaborate mortuary ceremonialism and personal ornamentation reflect a growing concern with the expression of individualism which conflicted with the traditional emphasis on the continuity and solidarity of the group.Subjects--Topical Terms:
