▼a Koster Mounds is a prehistoric mortuary complex in Greene County, Illinois that was designated a Late Woodland (1500-1000 BP) site by its excavator, Gregory Perino. However, its diverse mortuary program, abundance of Late Archaic (5000-3000 BP) artifacts, and proximity to the later-to-be-discovered Middle Archaic (8000-5000 BP) Koster Site habitation area and cemetery suggest an earlier origin. The relationship between Koster Mounds and Koster Site and the possibility of earlier components at Koster Mounds have never been formally investigated. This project employed entirely nondestructive skeletal methods to establish the temporal use of Koster Mounds and identify the dynamic conceptions of social memory as inscribed through mortuary rituals in Archaic through Late Woodland groups. Due to diachronic changes in diet and food processing technology, oral health and morphology of skull regions subjected to masticatory forces were assessed across Koster Mounds mortuary components to determine their relative chronology. Simultaneous changes in diet, settlement, and population size precipitated changes in general health. Skeletal pathologies and anomalies were compared across Koster Mounds to corroborate oral and morphological results. Oral health was used to directly compare Koster Mounds to Koster Site. Results from the temporal analysis indicated heterogeneity across burial locations (mounds and knolls), burial depths (sub-surface graves, original ground surface, and mound fill), and burial positions (flexed, semiflexed, and extended), with individuals buried in knolls, sub-mound graves, and flexed positions being more closely affiliated with established health and morphological patterns of earlier groups. However, no entire component matched the oral health profile of Koster Site, indicating that earlier components of Koster Mounds are more likely of Early Woodland (3000-2000 BP) or Middle Woodland (2000-1500 BP) than Archaic origin. Assessment of social memory was based on the biological distance between Koster Mounds mortuary components. Morphology of the neurocranium (having higher heritability than other regions of the skull) and frequencies of skeletal genetic anomalies and variants showed homogeneity across most of the components identified in the first part as being chronologically distinct. Some evidence suggested biological disparity between individuals buried in graves and mound fill, but overall there is insufficient data to interpret the components as belonging to completely distinct groups. Together, the results indicate that Koster Mounds was indeed a multi-component site that was likely first used by Early or Middle Woodland societies. The overall biological homogeneity across the components of the site supports its use by a single human group, who by continuing and altering their ancestors' mortuary practices engaged with their own past and sustained their collective social memory. |
