Additional Evidence for Early Cucurbit Use in the Northern Eastern Woodlands East of the Allegheny Front
Abstract
Two accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) dates, 5404 ± 552 B.P. (AA-19129) and 2625 ± 45 B.P. (AA-19128), confirm the presence of mid-Holocene and early late Holocene cucurbit (Cucurbita pepo), respectively, at the Memorial Park site (36CN164) in north-central Pennsylvania. This is the second documented occurrence of mid-Holocene cucurbit and the first documented occurrence of domesticated early late Holocene cucurbit in the northern Eastern Woodlands east of the Allegheny Front. These occurrences help to establish the use of cucurbits in the Northeast on a timescale equivalent to that in the riverine interior, with the exception of the very earliest riverine interior dates. The Northeast has contributed little toward our understanding of prehistoric agricultural evolution in the Eastern Woodlands. The Memorial Park cucurbits and the mid-Holocene cucurbit recently reported at the Sharrow site in Maine indicate that greater efforts are needed to document pre-maize agricultural behavior in this area to increase our knowledge of the full range of pre-maize agricultural behavior in the Eastern Woodlands.

“Domesticated indige¬ nous C. pepo has only just been identified as pre¬ sent in the Northeast before 950 B.P. with an AMS date of 2,625 B.P. in north central Pennsylvania (Hart and Asch Sidell 1997).”

“Only recently has the presence of indigenous gourds (Cucurbita pepo) in Mid-Holocene (8,000-4,000 B.P.) contexts been demonstrated in the Northeast with AMS dates of 5,695 B.P. in Maine (Petersen and Asch Sidell 1996) and 5,400 B.P. in Pennsylvania (Hart and Asch Sidell 1997).”

In the citing paper
“Based on recent AMS dating of Cucurbita pepo remains from mid-Fiolocene and early late Holocene contexts (Hart and Asch Sidell 1997; Petersen and Asch Sided 1996), gourd and squash were present in the Northeast by at least the sixth and third millennium B.P, respectively, wed before maize and beans.”

In the citing paper
“This increasing evidence for earlier maize cultivation in the Northeast is undoubtedly the result of the increasing roles of flotation and archaeobotanical analysis in modern archaeology (cf.Hart and Asch Sidell 1997).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
