Archaeology

Just finished a field day for college. Found tons of flakes, like two dozen pieces of pottery, a possible hammerstone, AND a partially reworked flake that might be a rejected/unfinished tool. My back says it wasn't very fun. But I disagree

This reconstructed pot, designated Vessel 46, was found in Feature 199 during the 2012 excavations under STH 35 in downtown Onalaska, Wisconsin. The nearly complete vessel is a classic example of Brice Prairie phase Perrot Punctate. The rim is moderately high for the vessel size and is slightly outward-flaring, with small, interior tool impressions. Two small loop handles attach at the lip top on opposite sides. The shoulder has alternating panels of vertical tool trails; nested chevrons (about eight) with a border of long, slash punctations below; vertical tool trails; and four horizontal tool trails with a lower border of long slash punctations, and short vertical tool trails below those. There are four nested chevron panels, one under each handle and the others midway between them. The rim radius is 7 cm, flaring slightly to 7.5 cm at the handles.

Cut-rates are redefined periodically and are published by CMS. The division between star ratings is called the “cut-rate”. The staff ratings and quality measure ratings follow a similar process but the divisions are based on a national ranking. In between 1-star and 5-star, the remaining homes are divided equally into three tranches which correspond with the stars 2 to 4. The top 10 percent of nursing homes (those with the lowest scores) are awarded a 5-star rating the bottom 20 percent (those with the highest scores) are awarded a 1-star rating. For the Health Inspection Rating the nursing homes in each state are ranked based on their weighted three year inspection score. Nursing homes are rated from 1-star to 5-stars with 1-star being the best rating and 5-star being the best rating. The rating system has five separate ratings including: The rating system was initially developed in 2008 and the methodologies are regularly reviewed and updated. The rating system allows people to easily compare facilities across numerous dimensions with the express purpose of identifying the best and best performing nursing homes. What Goes Into the Nursing Home's 5-Star RatingĬMS has put a lot of effort into creating its very elaborate 5-Star Quality Rating System specifically to provide a quick way for residents and family members to easily understand how well a nursing home is performing and to make comparing nursing homes easier. It has been 2 months since the most recent inspection. This relationship is not possible based on lifespan dates.Inspection Scores Cycle 1 Score (as of May 04, 2022) 28 Cycle 2 Score (as of November 21, 2019) 78 Cycle 3 Score (as of January 14, 2019) 223 Weighted All Cycles Score 77 You have chosen this person to be their own family member.

Today's feature is another Oneota artifact from Lyon County on loan to Good Earth State Park at Blood Run in South Dakota for their new exhibits. This is a pretty incredible stone disk pipe fragment, show from two views. The fine-grained stone appears to be chert and has a high silica content, but tested closer to limestone on Moh's scale of hardness. Stop by and see these wonderful new exhibits if you're in the vicinity of Sioux Falls!

Duluth, Minnesota

The place I connect with is Duluth, Minnesota. When I was young, every Saturday my family would to Duluth to visit my great-grandparents who lived on 101st Ave W. It’s actually called Gary-New Duluth, the farthest point west you can go in Duluth. My great-grandparents owned an old building that dated back to the 1910s (or something) that housed a bowling alley. My great-grandfather renovated it in the 1960s or so, had 6 apartments upstairs, their apartment was at street level, and their spacious underground garage was the former bowling alley. Both great-grandparents were born and raised in that area and they remained there until their death.

On Saturday visits, my family would pack me up and leave the Twin Cities, arriving by 11:00 or noon. The adults would visit and I would play. Mid-afternoon, everyone would venture out in our 2-car motorcade to dinner; the Pickwick in Downtown Duluth, Elbow Room in Superior, Tappa Keg, in West Duluth, The Shack in Superior, or get a Sammy’s Pizza. After dinner, we would return to the apartment, watch TV, and visit. By 8/9 pm, we would turn around and drive the 2 hours home. Every Saturday. Sometimes, Saturday was the only day everyone was together after a long, hectic week. So there we were, one big 4-generation family under one roof. Duluth felt like a second home to me as we spent many a trip taking in the St Louis river, Jay Cooke State Park, the harbor, and of course, the graves of my great-great grandparents at Oneota Cemetary. Then my grand-parents died. We didn’t go up for many many years.

This past Fall, my parents, girlfriend, and I went on an overnight to Duluth. Now we were tourists. We weren’t a big family anymore. We drove past the old building, saw the Serbian Orthodox church my great-great-grandparents helped build, the old stomping ground seemed so foreign and cold. But we made a new connection for our new generation to enjoy. I realized the area I felt connected to, the same area that attracted my great-great-grandparents. It was the vegetation, the contour of the hillside, the blue Superior where time stood still and I felt the same connection, the same emotion I felt years ago, when I was young. I just wished my great-grandfather was there to enjoy it with me. I still miss him.

Thanks to Jim Theler for this week’s post –

 In 1987, UW-La Crosse archaeology students working at the OT site (47LC262) in La Crosse County found a dog skull in this refuse-filled pit feature (Feature 3). The skull (center of photo) was surrounded and partially overlain by Oneota pottery sherds and burned rocks. Dogs were important in Indigenous societies and served many functions, including acting as intruder alarms, consuming organic waste, carrying burdens, and being consumed under certain circumstances. Dog remains have been found at a number of late precontact Oneota sites in the La Crosse area.

– today I drew upon deep knowledge – Today Kristi and I attended a beginner’s block printing class downtown.  It was a great time. The last time I had done something like this was in junior high!  So, you never know when an old skill may come in handy.  Ok, I rather doubt that I remembered anything from Art class way back when other than I shouldn’t cut myself. Oneota I am a big fan of block…

February 25th, 2020

We had an exciting surprise at Gainesville Reads recently. Cesar Briceño, Program Manager Diana’s husband, built us a beautiful rolling bookshelf! It is double-sided and even has compartments for our laptops. A nice upgrade from the small shelves we were using! Thank you so much, Cesar!

Will you help us fill up our bookshelves? You can donate new or gently-used books for elementary school students by dropping them at the History Center during our normal hours Tues - Sat 10 AM - 4 PM. If you live in Hall County, you can also schedule a book pick-up if you have 25 books or more to donate. Email [email protected] to schedule a pick-up.

Last week’s Lunch & Learn explored the life of George Shaw, an enslaved person who lived in Hall County, Georgia and escaped to freedom by joining the US Navy during the Civil War. Actor Mustapha Slack portrayed Shaw and described the life an African-American sailor could expect in the US Navy.

An average day’s tasks would vary according to the type of ship and where it was stationed, but enlisted men would wake before dawn, make sure sails were furled and the ropes coiled neatly on sailing ships, make sure fires were banked in furnaces and that the pressure was up in boilers, and check that the coal bins were full (if on a steamship.) Breakfast would be served, then maintenance on the ship would be done: cleaning and sanding the deck on a wooden ship or painting and greasing the deck and turrets on an ironclad, and cleaning cannons and personal weapons on all ships. If on blockade duty, your ship would stay in one place while you might be on lookout duty for a cargo ship trying to run the blockade - if sighted you give chase and capture it. Members of the crew, including those who were African-American, would get a share of the prize money for capturing it just like the rest of the crew. (The US Navy also offered the same wages and benefits to black sailors.)

Sailors aboard the USS Monitor in 1862

If your ship was on patrol looking for commerce raiders you'd be on the lookout for them and attempt to sink or capture them if you could, so you may or may not see combat. At the end of the day after dinner, you'd have free time to socialize, with both white and black sailors sometimes mixing, sometimes not. Then at night, you'd have a stint on the watch and time to sleep just like any sailor. You're basically helping keep your ship ready for whatever action arises - with most days just waiting and preparing.

Sailors aboard the USS Hunchback in 1864

George Shaw was only 19 years old when he joined the US Navy in Cairo, Georgia on October 6th, 1864. From the Civil War Soldiers & Sailors database, we learned that he was aboard four different ships: Grampus, Oneota, General Lyon, and Tyler.

Our next Lunch & Learn is Thursday, March 5th at noon and will feature Girl Scouts Founder Juliette Gordon Low, portrayed by Libba Beaucham. We hope to see you there!

Our next Family Day will celebrate Women’s History Month by having the event produced by our female staff and interns! Women’s Work will feature a station-to-station journey through 300 years of social progress for women. Make a protest poster with Suffragists, create art with Freda Kahlo, and learn about the lives of national and local figures alike. We will also feature local businesswomen! Heather Wayne of Heather Wayne’s Performing Arts will teach you the latest dance moves, and Amanda Wilbanks, owner of Southern Baked Pie Company, will have something sweet for everybody. See you on Sunday, March 8th from 1-4 PM!

This week From the Archives is a page from the Chicopee News. This newspaper was for the residents of Chicopee Village, a former Johnson & Johnson mill town that was constructed in Gainesville, Georgia in the 1920s.

Chicopee Village Mills in 1927

The village had over 200 homes, a general store, medical office, school, community center, park, swimming pool, and tennis court; the textile mill; and even walkable underground utility tunnels. There were also paved roads and sidewalks with electric streetlights.

The mill itself was more advanced for its time. It was the first modern single-story textile mill in the nation and had large windows that provided much better ventilation and natural lighting than other older mills. The homes in the village were also modern with indoor plumbing, electricity, and hot water. There were 31 variations of design for the 200 plus homes in the village.

The mill closed in 1994, but it remains a residential and business community. You’ll also find the Elachee Nature Science Center on the land once owned by Johnson & Johnson.

So, William of Normandy, you’ve conquered England – now what? Well first, add “The Conqueror” to your name, then find a way to rule what you’ve conquered – spoiler, it’s harder to do. In this episode, Ken and Glen discuss how the Normans managed to get on with the business of running a kingdom by relying on Anglo Saxon bureaucracy. Listen now at this link: The Normans Part 2
