Archaeologists Dig To Find
Information On Indians
By STEPHEN PALMER

University archaeologists are
digging up new facts and disproving old myths about Kentucky's first residents.
For instance, these researchers
can prove the Indians were here
long before Columbus discovered
Ametica and the legend that Kentucky was a '"dark and bloody
ground" or a hunter's paradise
is false.
Headmu the research team is
Dr. Douglas VV. Schwartz, associate professor of Anthropology and
director of the Museum of Anthropology. Actually, his title is
.somewhat misleading because he is
mainly an archaeologist.
Archaeology is only a part of
Anthropology, the
anthropology.
.science that treats of man and his
b.havior, is divided into six
branches. They are: archaeology,
ethnology, linguistics, physical
anthropology, social anthropology,
and applied anthropology.
Presently, Dr. Schwartz and his
researchers are under three contracts to cover two projects.
"While we are not ready to release our findings on these current
projects, we are glad to explain
what we have been doing," he said.
Two of the contracts are con-- ;
cerned with Kentucky.
I'nder
$1131) from the National Sci

ence Foundation and $3,000 from
the National Park Service, the
research tram is Investigating
Indians in Kentucky.
The work on this project has
taken place mainly on a site near
Barkley Dam. Another site on the
upper Big Sandy near Pikeville has
also been explored.
Some of the questions to be
answered are: who were the first
Indians here, when did they come,
how did they live, and what kinds
of tools did they have?
Since the Indians left no written records, the project denls exclusively" with material remains
bone and stone tools, pottery, and
skeletons.
How do they know where to din?
e
Miss Martha Rolingson,
research associate, explains:
"You survey the area and
select a site by looking- on the
ground, especially plowed fields,
fur Indian artifacts, and by asking people who have collected
airow heads and the like wheVe
they, found them.
"Nexf, you mark off the site
into five-fosquares, number each
of the squares, and start digging."
Excavation consists of peeling or
stripping off layers of ground like
removing the layers of a cake. Actually, the removal of strata is
not that simple, for the reason
that strata is not .laid down in a
clean-cu- t
fashion.
Archaeologists arbitrarily decide
the thickness of each layer, say
six inches.
The dirt is filtered
through a screen, and the artifacts are removed.
The majority of the work comes

findings. The researchers try to
determine the age of the artifact,
what it was, and how it was used.
From this, the archaeologists
try to reconstruct the civilization.
Who were the people, how did they
live, and what caused them to die
out?
The other major project Is
sponsored by the National Park
Service and the Graduate
Committee. It is an archaeological survey of the northeastern section of the Grand
Canyon.
Last summer Dr. Schwartz and
two fellow researchers
explored
the area. They flew over the area
in a helicopter, then went downstream in three inflatable boats.
Two projects are planned for
this coming summer. One is exploration of a sile on the Barren
River, south of Mammoth Cave, to
gain information about the first
farmers in Kentucky.
The other project is in the Bark-le- y
Basin, to look for artifacts belonging to late prehistoric Indians.
Many people wonder why archaeologists are so eager to investigate ancient life. In short, why dig
up dead Indians?
Dr. Schwartz explains,
to

"Archaeology
the understanding of the factors
that cause civilizations to come
into being, to flourish, and then
to collapse.
"Archaeologists seek to gather
from ruined buildings and broken
pottery the same sort of knowledge that historians derive from
books and manuscripts."

into five foot squares. Then layers of dirt were removed and
filtered through a screen. The real work came after the researchers

A Definite .Contribution
Following a somewhat shaky ami
questionable tradition, members of
the junior class of the College of Arts
and Sciences met last night to elect
officers for the senior class of 1963.
In the past, the senior class as a
group has performed few services for
the University and the officers serve
mainly as figure heads. Consequently,
the crowd was made up of about
65 politicians
who had come to
wrangle their candidates into office
and to collect some prestige,
.
The sincerity of the newly elected
ollicers was questioned and it was
suggested by a member of the audience that something worthwhile be
done in the corning je.ir. A motion
was made, piobably as a joke, that

'

a tree be planted so that the class of
1963 would not be forgotten. The

motion passed unanimously and a
tree committee was appointed. The
meeting ended with a farcical ring.
Well, seniors the joke should end
but not the idea. Plant your tree.
Plant it this spring. But' make that
saph'ng a unifying symbol of a class
that will not be. forgotten. Let it remind people of a class that made a
definite contribution to the University campus.
Let that tree be the growing standard of a class that did more than
elect oificcrs. Opportunities for service to the University and the .state
are plentiful and varied. Look around,
seniors.

Some folks talk alxnit the pursuit
of knowledge for the glory of God,
and they probably aren't off base
after all. Knowledge is instrumental,
but instrumental for what? The question's open: what do you think?

Running loose in an academic
community, we quite naturally get
the meaning of knowledge out of
focus now and then. Somehow we
get the idea that "knowing" is equal
to "being worthwhile,"
and "not
knowing" is equal to "being worthless" or "defenseless." Consequently, in
many relationships we are compelled
to defend our ignorance and press an
attack with what knowledge we might
have. I've been picking up a lot of
"dead" Ixjdies and casualties from this
kind of warfare lately!
Suppose, though, "knowing" was
equal to "inward, human strength,"
and ignorance was a stimulus 'rather
than ii threat to ouf security. Then,"
we could use our knowledge without

they stood for, er agin'. The write-icanelidate won.
And so it went. Absurdity after
absurdity.
Te top it off, it was suggested by
the new president that we be a good
senior class and do something constructivelike plant a tree or something. And it was so moved . . . and
passed.
. And now, after all the criticism,
I have a suggestion:
Why not let the senior class president be sth'ctcd, along with the other

The Best In 25 Years
'"The best annual publication

I'.y DICK WALLACE
Last week I attended the annual
f.iree that goes by the misnomer,
"Flection Ol Senior Class Ollicers."
What a glorious evening it was.
In addition to railroading through the
candidates, it was voted to grace the
beauty of our fair campus with a
vt'P ()U guessed it . . . a THEE!
So, being chairman of the "Class
of '63 Tree Committee," I feel it is
my duty to report em progress.
The tree will be an Ash. It will
be planted in front of the Journalism
building early next spring.
Although in the early planning
stages, we are planning to have an
appropriate planting ceremony with
speakers, band, and refreshments. A
picket fence will be erected around
the tree.
And now to get to a more serious
line of thinking, before attending this
meeting I had some reservations as
to the importance, ellectiveness, and
purpose of having officers for a senior
class.
To start with, the election amounts
to "much sound and fury, signifying
nothing." The organization is another
group, although the class
of '02 did sponsor a picnic along with
Ihe Alumni Association for themselves.
The people elected to these oil ices

As for the election, it was a real
humdinger. There were approximately
50 people in attendance
at the
start ol the meeting and later increased to approximately 60.
The names of the candidates for
president were read eilf and a write-icandidate was added to the list.
The candidates then left the room
without any sort ef comment about
what they would like to do or what

While stationed at remote outposts, some of us were told "a salute

Historically, very few men have

placing them in a nursery with toy

Students Give Views On SC Elections
Varied opinions were expressed by University
fturicnts on the outcome of the Student Congress
elections held Monday.
John A. Williams, president of SC, said the
elections show several things.
"It shows," he said, "there was a great deal of
fpirit. Newkirk and Brockman did a tremendous
job of selling themselves. They weren't elected,
which showed they didn't sell enough.
"We had strong competition for the office of
president, and I would rather see a close election
than a landslide. This shows spirit and competitiveness and it also shows you have to work for the
presidency."
"As far as the outcome," Williams said." I am
thrilled at the number of people who voted. I
am extremely satisfied with the individuals who
were elected. They are competent, and have a
great wealth of knowledge about student
and the Student Congress." ' .
He said, "It's good the Lane slate was split because you have people from both factions elected.
This gives both groups representation. It will serve
as a building block for C, since it isn't being
run by one group at the exclusion of another."
When asked his opinion about the election outcome, Jim Daniel, former president of SC, said,
"I was out of town the whole weekend and missed
much of the campaigning. In fact, I didn't even
pet to vote since I only came back Tuesday morning. But I'm sure they'll all do a good job."
"I'm triad," he said, "to see it a pulilir,
rather than SC assembly election. I think it
Riiitiaicd considerable interest."
Daniel went on to say that the splitting of a

slate, such as in Raleigh Lane's case, "has happened in past elections, and it winked out ve;y
we!'. There will be no trouble in Lane and his
officers t.etting together, becau-- c they'll need hi:n
and he'll need them."
Jim Mitthell, a senior biological sciences
major from llarbourville, said, "I wanted Newkirk to win as he was my choice for the presidency. Lane won't be able to do what he had
