Kalapuya Archaeology: The Cultural Record of the Willamette Valley before 1850
January 30, 2018 - Eugene, Oregon
Early historic accounts of the Kalapuya Indians failed to account for the fact that Native groups in the Willamette Valley had and were experiencing catastrophic population declines due to introduced epidemic diseases. This disrupted all aspects of life, from cultural practices to land use geography, and, as a result, pre-contact culture and history of the Kalapuya have often been misrepresented. This talk will draw from reliable historical, ethnographic, and archaeological records to revisit the Kalapuya legacy in the Willamette Valley.
Thank you, Mr. Boyle for making a video of this talk. I learned a lot about the base of evidence for knowledge of the Kalapuyas and their history. Connolly is a good and interesting speaker. You did well in displaying his screen displays.
I sure would love to know more about who lived where in the Hale Valley outside of Noti.
I know a family who bought up most of that whole valley back when the pioneers came west.
They have found so many beautiful artifacts; points, blades hand woven baskets, clothing, HUGE mortors and pestles and so much more, but sadly, they are all hidden away in an attic.
I could barely see it all in the darkness.
BURNS me up!!😡
They should be in a MUSEUM for ALL to see and appreciate!
They should be returned to the people because it belongs to them
@@thornethistleandtear5415 If they wore out, broke,, or lost their possessions and were forgotten they didn't want or need them. But it's a good thing because well educated archeaologists who often are not Indians will study and preserve these now artifacts for future generations. Archealogy in America is uncovering lost history of the our natives. If you have indian pride you better know what to be proud of. Your history! Archeaology is saving proud indian history. So.....
@@ericschmuecker348 that doesn't excuse not returning them. they didn't want or need them? You know about the genocide, right? they didn't just pack up and move willingly, deciding to leave stuff by choice. I've not seen that argument before and probably for good reason. Not even by those that excuse genocide with 'should have fought back harder'.
That is amazing
Thank You
That sad to me that ancestral ground is disrupted for a byway., and ancestral artifacts are collected by strangers and taken and boxed in some museum or storage area! What ever you need to know you would just have to ask the people the way of life and what they ate. Your videos remind me of a video of cemetery desiccation of what is scared to US. Treasure hunters and thieves go to our scared sites to take and sell on eBay and other online sites, or keep as prisoners in museums instead of given back to the people. We are descendants of the people who lived there. We are the generations. We are here have been here and we’re killed by white men for being here first and stealing our resources. Who is really the savage!
interesting subject and info. I lived and grew up in the valley and near the long tom. Speaker needs to work on his speaking skills though. Sorry but the stammering is just too distracting
It's not like there's dozens of people with extensive knowledge about this. Would you rather it not be available?
Very interesting. Well worth listening to.
Do you have a Latin name for the wild wheat you mentioned in the valley. I’d like to research it.
Wow
Our native peoples deep history in this land we live is extremely rich, if our government wasn't ashamed of our dishonorable policies towards native peoples way back, I imagine we would have more tourist based historic sites because Oregon's history as a state started 170 years ago but it's history as a land started 10s of thousands of years ago. Thank you for shedding light on our history that's been skewed in bias and darkness of information. This would have been an amazing place to see back then.. One of God's last untouched lands.
Indigenous People's should not be taught about as ..." once were.. or ..they WERE a Proud People.." We STILL are! We have survived the Concentration Camps aka Reservations. We have survived the Genocidal Acts/Laws forced on ALL of us by The US Government. I use Genocide, Ethnocide an most importantly Holocaust when describing the last 5 or 6 generations, for some it's only been 3 or 4 generations.! So I say STOP using terms of extinction in regards to Indigenous Peoples...???
@@lydajeryl Indians are Jewish. I did not know that.
Yes and as a decendant of the indigenous people here I find it kind of depressing that it doesn't matter more . I also come from a murdered 1855 treaty signer that they don't teach you about in school.
not every expert has the speaking skills that pedants require. I wonder how many of those critical of this fellow have any comments of real value here. Sheesh. Great information!! Terrible listeners.
So very true.
I did. Where is it??
Poor speaker, leaving out so many details of interest. Our farm was a yamel, not Yamhill campsite along the Yamhill River. Artifacts we found over many years told of a popular place for hunting. White translation changed many tribal names of oregon Indians. Killamook, not Tillamook ect..
Killamook?? Really? Rascist much? A prospective to be Proud of...smh
I think @Lydia Logan you are jumping to conclusions. Slow your roll. It's history and it has perspectives whether you like it or not. I happen to have seen some historical accounts that use spellings we would correct today. Try not to attack people. We are all learning right?
The fluting of Clovis and Folsom evolved from Prepared Moustrean Cores.
Archaeological sites on the floor of the Willamette Valley between Eugene and Portland cannot be older than 10,800 years because that is when the valley floor was raised by about 550' at Albany as a result of the Missoula Flood. That's why the valley is so flat. The flood slurry rushed up to Eugene and then back out again, burying all of the ancient cities. Snow White lived in the city under Albany. It was called 'Albion' 10,800 years ago. 'Alba' is Latin for 'white', and Alba is Scottish for Scotland. The Willamette Valley is their ancestral homeland prior to 10,800 years ago. Captain James Cook made it to New Albion in around 1770, and Captain Sir Francis Drake made it to New Albion in 1579. Back then, the Columbia River was called the 'River of the West'. Eugene was only buried by about 20 feet of fill, so the Castle of the Wizard of Oz was probably untouched atop Skinner Butte north of downtown Eugene, the Emerald City in the Emerald Empire.
