Recent overviews of the archaeology and reconstruction of Cahokia his44 ethridge tory are Milner, Cahokia Chiefdom, and Pauketat, Ancient Cahokia. ” One can visit the center of Cahokia, which is now a state historic site just east of present-day St. Louis, Missouri. 12. The full regional range of the Mississippian culture was established in the essays collected by Bruce Smith in Mississippian Settlement Patterns. 1; Knight and Steponaitis, Moundville Chiefdom; King, Etowah; Dye and Cox, Towns and Temples; and Lewis and Stout, Mississippian Towns and Sacred Spaces.
119 In these years Southern Indian history was marked by monumental, transformative world-shaping events. 120 We are only just beginning to understand precisely what happened when a chiefdom fell; it most likely broke apart, although the lines of breakage are unclear. 121 The petites nations and settlement Indians, for example, represent new social types. In the case of the settlement Indians, these groups did not coalesce but remained small independent groups. 122 Like the settlement Indians, the petites nations of the Louisiana Gulf did not coalesce but remained as small and independent groups.
74 Most of these militaristic slaving societies were short lived, existing for 24 ethridge only about a hundred years — from 1620 to 1720. During this brief window of time, they were key agents in the creation and expansion of the Mississippian shatter zone through a relentless raiding of their Indian neighbors for slaves. As we will see, not all militaristic slaving societies were the same, nor were all of their motives for slaving and warfare the same. In the case of the Iroquois, for example, their widespread slaving, although entwined with their trade interests, was to replace their dwindling population.
