Abstract

Population displacement, resettlement, and migration constitute important dimensions in a general process of “cultural construction.” A pedestrian survey and extensive excavations of 255 domestic buildings and related artifacts at 15 contemporaneous sites document a pattern of localized resettlement in which thousands of agricultural villagers moved or were displaced coeval with the founding of Cahokia. The resettled villagers appear to have moved into a previously unoccupied upland zone that surrounds the Mississippi River floodplain. Identified as the “Richland Complex,” the seemingly abrupt resettlement corresponds to other regional evidence of demographic reconfiguration and cultural pluralism. The immediate effect of this study is a reorientation of research at Cahokia toward the goals of a “historical-processual“ archaeology.

Résumé

Résumé

En el proceso de construcción cultural los movimientos migratorios, el desplazamiento y el re-establecimiento de la población en nuevos asentamientos son de gran importancia. Un estudio basado en recorridos de superficie y las minuciosas excavaciones de 255 edificios domésticos y artefactos relacionados localizados en 15 lugares de la misma é poca, documentan una pauta de re-establecimiento en la que miles de agricultores fueron desplazados en una epoca contemporánea a la fundación de Cahokia. Los campesinos desplazados parecen haberse re-asentado en una porción alta del terreno que rodea el cauce del río Mississippi que se encontraba deshabitada, identificado como “The Richland Complex” (“el complejo de la tierra fertil”). El aparentemente abrupto re-asentamiento de la población coincide con evidencia regional que apunta a nuevos desplazamientos demográficos y pluralismo cultural. La consecuencia inmediata de este estudio es la necesidad de re-orientación de la investigación arqueoló gica en Cahokia a través de un método que tenga en cuenta el proceso histórico.
