Abstract

Interpreting ritual activity at ancient sites, such as Sun Watch Village in the Middle Ohio Valley, can be difficult without clear and specific historical connections to later groups. This Fort Ancient site yielded evidence of ritual use of dogs and wolves that resemble those documented for several Central Algonquian and Siouan/Plains tribes. Although these ethnographic groups have not been conclusively linked as direct descendants of Middle Ohio valley populations, this information can be used as multiple specific analogies for understanding such “culturally unaffiliated” cases. At Sun Watch Village, local customs of dog and wolf ritualism became established at a time of increasing warfare and the appearance of Mississippians in the Fort Ancient region. Mississippians may have contributed to developing authority positions in individual villages that were coping with local population growth and in-migration of peoples within an increasingly hostile social landscape.

Resumen

Resumen

La interpretación de las actividades rituales en sitios antiguos, como Sun Watch Village en el valle central de Ohio, puede ser difícil sin conexiones históricas específicas y claras con los grupos más recientes. El sitio Ancient Fort proveyó de evidencia del uso ritual de perros y lobos parecido a los usos documentados en algunas tribus algonqulanas centrales, y siouanas de las planicies. Sin embargo, estos grupos etnográficos no muestran vínculos directos convincentes con las poblaciones del valle central de Ohio. Con esta advertencia usamos la información etnográfica para generar analogías específicas múltiples y entender un caso sin “afiliación cultural”. En la aldea Sun Watch la costumbre local de rituales caninos fue establecida en una época marcada por el aumento de la guerra y la presencia de habitantes Mississippi a la región de Ancient Fort. Los Mississippi pudieron haber contribuido al desarrollo de posiciones de autoridad política en las aldeas que se adaptaban al crecimiento poblacional y la Inmigración de gente dentro de un paisaje social crecientemente hostil.
