“Zooarchaeological Residues of Feasting at a Mississippian Mound Complex,38KE12, South Carolina”Emily Sykora, Indiana University Pennsylvania
The 38KE12 archaeological site in the Wateree River Valley of South Carolina consists of a Native American multi-mound complex, potentially representing the town of Cofitachequi or Talimeco. Through collaboration with Indigenous groups, a zooarchaeological documentation project of animal remains from site 38KE12 explores the roles of animals in relation to site inhabitants. The symbolic significance of animals reveals potential ritual feasting activities that occurred at the site during its occupation from ca. AD 1225-1562.
