ABSTRACT This paper presents material and spatial evidence on skilled crafting from a series of archaeological investigations at the Fingerhut Tract, located in the western portion of the Mississippian period (AD 1050–1400) Cahokia site in southwestern Illinois. Specifically, skilled crafters at the Fingerhut Tract throughout the Mississippian period resided in distinct household clusters and neighborhoods, were part or members of elite families, and assembled multiple exotic materials into accoutrements used in religious ceremonies. Moreover, the special knowledge of these skilled crafters was likely obtained during journeys to distant locations and was passed down through time within particular family, kin, or social groups. Perhaps most important, the evidence indicates that crafting these items was entangled with religious practice and not solely an economic or political pursuit as suggested in earlier prestige good models.

Cahokia's Fingerhut Tract 的精湛工艺

摘要 本文提供了在位于伊利诺伊州西南部密西西比时期(公元 1050-1400 年)卡霍基亚遗址西部的芬格胡特地区进行的一系列考古调查中关于熟练手工艺的材料和空间证据。具体而言,在整个密西西比时期,Fingerhut Tract 的熟练工匠居住在不同的家庭集群和社区,是精英家庭的一部分或成员,并将多种异国情调的材料组装成用于宗教仪式的装备。此外,这些熟练工匠的特殊知识很可能是在前往遥远地方的旅途中获得的,并在特定的家庭、亲属或社会群体中随着时间的推移而传承下来。也许最重要的是,
