Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of New Mexico, 2008.

This dissertation represents an inaugural case study in the development of an Indigenous experimental archaeology that is intended to be of use to both the discipline of archaeology and to Native American communities. In theoretical background, methodology, and outreach, it seeks to combine elements of traditional archaeology with those of Indigenous research to create a holistic work.

520 $a This dissertation represents an inaugural case study in the development of an Indigenous experimental archaeology that is intended to be of use to both the discipline of archaeology and to Native American communities. In theoretical background, methodology, and outreach, it seeks to combine elements of traditional archaeology with those of Indigenous research to create a holistic work.
520 $a Early chapters depict the colonial history of the Choctaw people, and demonstrate how archaeology was influenced by, and involved in some of the most destructive elements of colonization. The roots of some of these are identified, and specific alternative approaches are suggested for helping to balance out some colonial elements that today persist in archaeological theory, method, and interpretation. Using these approaches, the remainder of the manuscript represents a new presentation of Choctaw history, focusing on traditional Choctaw knowledge.
520 $a Beginning with an analysis of materials from the ancestral Choctaw Lubbub Creek site (AD 1100-1650) of western Alabama and using several other sources of information, the data were gathered to accurately characterize the manufacture and use of selected representatives of the major classes of traditional Choctaw technologies. For each category of technologies, experimental, replicative projects were conducted using archaeologically documented materials, tools, and techniques. These were designed to acquire information concerning the range of raw materials, manufacturing processes, and knowledge likely to have been relevant to ancestral Choctaw people in the production of these diverse items. The performance characteristics of the tools produced through replication were evaluated in a series of experiments designed to test findings made by anthropologists about tool use and performance that are seen to have broad implications. To connect this account with living people and incorporate the voices of multiple descendants, interviews with contemporary traditional Choctaw artists who continue to produce equivalents to some of the replicated implements, are presented, concerning the importance of these traditions in the twenty-first century.
520 $a The information from these diverse sources is synthesized through an Indigenous interpretive framework to create a more balanced, detailed account the pre-contact Choctaw traditional lifeway, from a relatively emic perspective. The resultant data has been disseminated through culture camp classes.
