Description

King Hill, Fanning and Leary: A Study of Oneota Ceramic Variability is a thesis written by Carol B. Raish concerning excavations at King Hill in St. Joseph, MO. Her first sentence of chapter 2 states: "The purpose of this thesis is to test the hypothesis that the ceramics from the King Hill midden are stylistically similar to the ceramics from the Fanning site to the degree that vessels from the two sites can be considered products of the same or closely related peoples." Those people seem to be the Oneota and Kansas Indian tribes. The King Hill site is in St. Joseph, Missouri; the Fanning site is across the Missouri River in Doniphan County, Kansas and the Leary site is located on a low terrace near the mouth of the Big Nemaha in Richardson County, Nebraska, approximately 35 miles north of King Hill. Appendices, maps and tables are included. This thesis was presented to the faculty of the Graduate College in the University of Nebraska in partial fulfillment of requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts, Department of Anthropology. 175/Softbound/Illustrations/Maps/Tables.
