5 Glacial Iowa There have been four major ice ages in the earth s past million years ago million years ago (minor series) million years ago 2.5 million-10,000 years ago (Pleistocene)
6 Glacial Iowa The warmer period between colder times is called an interglacial. We are in an interglacial period now. Typical interglacial periods last ~12,000 years but can be much longer. Some estimates suggest that our current interglacial period might last 50,000 years or longer.
7 Glacial Iowa What causes ice ages? Atmospheric composition (carbon dioxide, methane) Changes in the earth s orbit (Milankovitch cycles) Milankovitch Location of the continents (continental drift) How often do ice ages come? During mya the period was 41,000 years During the past 800,000 years it has been every 100,000 years Original Milankovitch theory predicts a 41,000 year cycle.
8 Map of Glaciation in Central North America
9 Glacial Iowa What was the Iowa landscape like when the ice receded? Tundra was found along the south edge of the ice front. Taiga was found below the tundra. Savannah habitats would be found at the southern extremes.parkland forests open forests interspersed with grasslands
10 Arctic Tundra
11 Boreal Forest/Taiga
12 Paleoindian Cultures In Iowa (12, ybp) Who are the first people to arrive in Iowa? Clovis culture is the earliest well defined archeological culture known in North America. Clovis is named after the city in New Mexico where the first projectile point was found. Clovis points have a central groove (flute) along both faces and finely worked edges. The fluted nature of the point allows attachment to the spear and detachment of the point.
13 Paleoindian Cultures In Iowa (12, ybp) Typical blades are cm long by 4cm in width and are made from chert or obsidian. Clovis sites typically contain lancelolate points and butchering tools. Clovis is a big-game hunting culture that survived on the large, ice age mammals the megafauna.

15 Paleoindian Cultures In Iowa (12, ybp) How did the Clovis people get here? Clovis First Theory A wave of Clovis people migrated from Asia across Beringia.the land bridge exposed between modern day Bering Strait/ between Siberia and Alaska. Once Clovis people entered North America they passed through the Ice Free Corridor.a break in the continental ice sheet in western Canada. The Clovis people reached the tip of South America only 1000 years after leaving the Ice Free Corridor in Canada.

17 Distribution of Clovis Culture 12,000 ybp
18 Paleoindian Cultures In Iowa (12, ybp) The Blitzkrieg Hypothesis (Overkill/Wavefront) C. Vance Haynes, Jr. Clovis hunters decimated the megafaunal mammals (some 33 genera; some 70% of the existing big game animals) The Coastal Hypothesis (Pre-Clovis) Knut Fladmark Immigrants used the coastline as refugia and hopped down the coast to North America. When they reach Panama some continued south and others crossed over to the Atlantic side and moved up the Atlantic coast. Some proponents believe people may have been on the continent 30-40,000 ybp!!! A few archeologists have proposed a SE US origin of Clovis peoples based on sites in Florida.
19 Paleoindian Cultures In Iowa (12, The Solutrean/Clovis Hypothesis Dennis Stanford and Bruce Bradley/Smithsonian Solutrean flint knapping technology is identical to Clovis The Solutreans lived 22,000-16,500 ybp in northern Spain The Solutreans may have passed by sea around the north Atlantic edge of the glacier to North America.
20 Paleoindian Cultures In Iowa (12, Clovis hunters used an atlatal (also spelled atlatl) to throw spears. The atlatal is used as a lever/spring that lengthens the arm of the thrower. The atlatal allows 200 times as much power and 6 times the range of a spear thrown by the bare hand. The atlatal may have been the primary technological development that allowed hunters to kill large megafaunal mammals.
21 Paleoindian Cultures In Iowa (12, The earliest archaeological evidence of an atlatal is 25,000 ybp!

23 Different types of atlatls
24 Paleoindian Cultures In Iowa (12, ybp) What were the Clovis people hunting? The megafaunal mammals seem to be the primary food source of Clovis peoples. These animals include: Mastodons, Mammoths Giant Ground Sloths Giant Bison Camels Muskox Giant Beaver Western Horse Many other mammals

33 Paleoindian Cultures In Iowa (12, ybp) The largest Clovis site in Iowa is the Rummells-Maske site west of Tipton in Cedar County. A plow-disturbed cache of Clovis points was found at this site. The oldest Clovis skeleton found carbon-dated at 10,680 ybp (Anzick site; Wilsall, north of Livingston, Montana; Park County, Montana) Please see The Voices of Bones by Doug Peacock/Outside Magazine and the papers by Dr. Larry Lahren for details.
34 Paleoindian Cultures In Iowa (12, ybp) Folsom Culture followed Clovis culture (11,000-10,000ybp). Folsom projectile points are smaller than Clovis points and indicate a shift in the animals harvested. Folsom culture arose as the glaciers receded about 10,000 ybp.
35 Clovis/Folsom Sites in Iowa

37 Archaic Period ( ybp) The Archaic Period is viewed as a transitional stage between cultures relying on big game and cultures with a more rounded forager adaptation. Populations depended on bison in western Iowan and on deer and elk in eastern Iowa. Climate was warming during this period (Atlantic episode or Hypsithermal) and populations gravitated to the wetter river valleys.
38 Archaic Period ( ybp) During the hypsithermal (8,000-4,000 ybp) great masses of silt filled river valleys and many Archaic sites are buried in these alluvial sediments. Toward the end of the Archaic period population densities were increasing as evidenced by the use of communal cemeteries. The end of the dry hypsithermal made many previously unsuitable areas attractive for settlement.
39 Archaic Period ( ybp) Increased exploitation of aquatic resources and nuts is indicated by the presence of bone fishhooks, net weights, nutting stones and other specialized tools for obtaining and processing these foods.
40 Woodland Period ( ybp) Developments during this period include: bow and arrow hunting pottery production plant domestication and cultivation burial mound construction Woodland peoples developed their hunter-gatherer lifestyles using fish and clams in the major rivers and continuing to harvest deer, elk and bison.
41 Woodland Period ( ybp) Woodland farmers domesticated varieties of native plants long before corn or beans became important. Early cultivated plants included gourds, sumpweed, goosefoot, sunflower, knotweed, little barley and maygrass. Woodland communities throughout the Midwest were linked by an extensive trade network referred to by archaeologists as the Hopewell Interaction Sphere.
42 Woodland Period ( ybp) Hopewell culture in Illinois and Ohio spread into Iowa from settlements along the Mississippi River and may have also come into Iowa from a Hopewellian center near Kansas City. Raw materials were traded from wide distances...knife river flint from North Dakota, obsidian from the Yellowstone area, gulf coast marine shells, Great Lakes copper, pipestones from Minnesota, Illinois and Ohio.
43 Woodland Period ( ybp) Corn was introduced around 800 ybp but did not become a staple item until later. Mound building was common in the Woodland Period. The most significant sites in Iowa are the groups of linear, effigy and conical mounds found near Harpers Ferry/Marquette...what is now Effigy Mounds National Monument.
44 Woodland Period ( ybp) The monument is 2,526 acres with 195 mounds of which 31 are effigies. The mounds are sacred burial sites that have been dated from ybp.

52 Late Prehistoric Period ( ybp) Plains Village Cultures - characterized by a distinct adaptation to the tall grass prairie/short grass prairie ecotone of South Dakota, Nebraska, western Iowa and southern Minnesota. Improved corn varieties, garden surpluses, earthlodge houses, complex social organization were common to these communities.
53 e Late Prehistoric Period ( ybp) Bison meat was common in the diet. Bison hides were used for clothing, robes and coverings for the lodges. Bison bones were modified into a variety of tools such as scapula hoes using in gardening and digging.
54 Late Prehistoric Period ( ybp) Oneota Culture - Oneota culture dominated much of eastern Iowa as well as parts of central and northwestern Iowa. Oneota villages were large. They could be permanent or semipermanent sites. Houses varied from small dwellings to longhouses that could hold many families. The subsistence economy was based on agriculture, fishing, hunting and foraging. Oneota groups are believed to be ancestral to several midwestern tribes (Siouxan language group): Iowa, Oto, Missouri and Winnebago.
55 Historic Tribes What tribes have lived in Iowa? Siouan Speaking (Ioway, Oto, Winnebago/Ho-Chunk, Sioux, Omaha, Ponca) Algonquian Speaking (Mesquakie/Fox, Sauk, Potawatomi,Ojibway/Chippewa, Huron/Wyandot, Ottawa, Miami, Kickapoo, Menominee, Peoria, Moingwena
56 Rankin, 1997 Location of Chiwere/Siouan Tribes

58 Historic Tribes Almost all the tribes listed above lived in the lands to the east of Iowa and were displaced by intertribal conflicts and settlement. During the early 17 th century, the Huron were a major supplier of furs to the French. Many tribes were pushed west and sought temporary refuge in Iowa or were displaced permanently.
59 The White Cloud, Head Chief of the Iowas, 1844/45 Mahaska
60 Historic Tribes Who are the Ioway Indians? Ayuhwa is a Dakota name meaning, sleepy ones The Ioway called themselves, Paxoche which translates as, dusty noses or dusty heads. Marquette and Joliet learned of the Ioway from the Peoria in The Ioway were located on the Upper Iowa River at the time of first contact by the French traders (Perrot, 1685)
61 Historic Tribes The Ioway s story is one of almost constant relocation from the time of first contact with white people to the 20 th century. After 1685 the Ioway moved to western Iowa and eventually settled on the Missouri River in NW Iowa. In the 1760s the Ioway moved east and were located in two settlements on the Mississippi River. They settled where the Iowa River and Des Moines River enter the Mississippi. The Ioway were displaced after attack by the Sauk and Fox in 1777 to the Iowaville area on the Des Moines River.
62 Historic Tribes The Sauk, led by Chief Blackhawk, attacked the Ioway again in The Ioway ceded all their original land claims in Minnesota, Iowa and Missouri between 1824 and The Iowa were moved to the Great Nemaha River Reservation in NE Kansas/SE Nebraska
63 Historic Tribes Between a group of 14 Ioway Indians toured Great Britain with the painter, George Catlin. Catlin painted some 300 portraits of 50 different tribes between During the later half of the 19 th century a portion of the Ioway tribe moved to Oklahoma. Today there are two groups of Ioway recognized by the federal government: the Iowa Tribe of Kansas and Nebraska and the Iowa Tribe of Oklahoma.

67 Iowa Lodges
68 Historic Tribes The Mesquakie (Fox) and Sauk The French had first contact with the Mesquakie in The tribe estimated to have 12,000 members at that time. The French called them Renard (Fox) because they met members of the Fox clan of the tribe. The Mesquakie are related linguistically/culturally to other Central Algonquian peoples, the Sauk and the Kickapoo.
69 Historic Tribes Mesquakie Origins Mesquakie oral tradition says the tribe was created by Wisaka, the Elder Brother. Wisaka created the first humans from red earth or clay. The Mesquakie are the Red Earth People. The largest clans are the Bear, Fox, Thunder and Wolf. War chiefs came from the Fox clan and peace chiefs from the Bear clan. Mesquakie tradition suggest they arose along the eastern coast of the continent. The archeological record seems to show they were most recently located around the central Great Lakes in eastern Michigan. The Mesquakie, like the Sauk, Kickapoo, Mascouten and Potawatomi, moved westward during the middle of the 17 th century.
70 Historic Tribes The Mesquakie resided in the Fox River basin in Central Wisconsin by the late 1670s. Between the French attempted to exterminate the Mesquakie because of their loyalty to the British. In 1730 the Mesquakie lost about 1000 men, women, and children as they fled the French and their allies. The Mesquakie and Sauk were forced to flee across the Mississippi into Ioway territory and successfully defended themselves against French attack. In 1737 the French government pardoned the Mesquakie and ended their pursuit. The village of Saukenuk was established in the late 1700s on the Rock River.
71 Historic Tribes Zebulon Pike described three Mesquakie villages in 1805 West Bank of the Mississippi North of the Rock River Rapids Mines of Spain area Confluence of the Turkey River and Mississippi Julien Dubuque was granted a treaty from the Mesquakie for mining lead in 1788 (Mines of Spain). The French ceded the western portion of the upper Mississippi valley to the Spanish in The land was returned back to the French in The Louisiana Purchase in 1803 allowed territorial settlement to proceed. Movement of people into Iowa proceeded quickly.
72 Historic Tribes Pressures from settlement after 1825 forced the Sauk along the Mississippi to leave western Illinois and relocate to southeast Iowa. The exception was Black Hawk s band of Sauk at Rock Island. The Black Hawk War of 1832 resulted in defeat for the Sauk. The government appointed Keokuk as the head chief of the so-called Sauk and Mesquakie nation after Black Hawk s defeat. The tribe was forced to give up 2.5 million hectares of the eastern part of Iowa (the Black Hawk Purchase) Keokuk was granted a small territory along the Iowa River (called the Keokuk Reserve)
73 Historic Tribes The Fox and Sauk remained in Iowa until 1842 when the ceded their lands for a reserve in Kansas just south of present-day Topeka. Some of the Fox left Kansas after selling their herd of horses for Iowa. In 1856 the Iowa Legislature authorized the Mesquakie to purchase 80 acres of land in Iowa near Tama ($12.50/acre; 10X what the Mesquakie were originally given; 2X the actual cost of farmland in Iowa at the time). Today Mesquakie tribal holdings are about 5,000 acres.
