Many exciting archaeological discoveries are made in the field, some in the laboratory, and others in archives or dusty attics. For over seven decades, major primary material about the Hia-Ced O’odham has been mined from the letters of Thomas Childs Jr. to Henry F. Dobyns and to Richard Van Valkenburgh. These sets had been summarized and published, one in the archaeological journal Kiva1 and the other in Desert Magazine,2 and they provided essential first-hand information for understanding the Hia-Ced O’odham, a somewhat mysterious and lesser known group of Piman-speaking desert dwellers in Western Papaguería. Known historically as the Sand Papago, these people ranged from the Gila River south to the Gulf of California, and from the Colorado River eastward to Sonoyta, Sonora and Ajo, Arizona. Except for family correspondence, no other Childs letters were known or expected. Then in 2010 a previously unreported stash was quietly announced in this journal: Thomas Childs “exchanged quite a few letters with Norton [Allen], from at least [May] 1944 through [December] 1947.”3 It was an exciting find. The trove was recognized by Richard A. Schwartzlose in the immense collection of Native American material given by Norton Allen and his wife, Ethel, to the Arizona State Museum

邮票考古学:托马斯·柴尔兹给诺顿·艾伦的信,1944 年至 1947 年

许多令人兴奋的考古发现都是在野外进行的,有些是在实验室中,有些则是在档案馆或尘土飞扬的阁楼中。七十年来,关于 Hia-Ced O'odham 的主要主要材料是从 Thomas Childs Jr. 给 Henry F. Dobyns 和 Richard Van Valkenburgh 的信件中挖掘出来的。这些集合已被总结并发表,其中一个在考古杂志 Kiva1 上,另一个在沙漠杂志上,2 它们为了解 Hia-Ced O'odham 提供了重要的第一手信息,这是一个有点神秘且鲜为人知的 Piman 群体-说西部 Papaguería 的沙漠居民。这些人在历史上被称为 Sand Papago,从吉拉河向南到加利福尼亚湾,从科罗拉多河向东到索诺拉州的索诺伊塔和亚利桑那州的阿霍。除了家庭信件,没有其他蔡尔的信件是已知的或预期的。然后在 2010 年,该杂志悄悄宣布了一个以前未报告的藏匿处:托马斯·柴尔兹“至少从 1944 年 5 月至 1947 年 12 月与诺顿 [艾伦] 交换了很多信件。”3 这是一个令人兴奋的发现。在诺顿·艾伦和他的妻子埃塞尔赠送给亚利桑那州立博物馆的大量美洲原住民材料中,理查德·A·施瓦茨洛斯 (Richard A. Schwartzlose) 认出了这个宝藏
