Abstract
| Oneota was a late Prehistoric group that settled in near modern-day La Crosse, WI around A.D.1300, bringing with material remains distinct from the previous Woodland tradition. They abandoned the La Crosse localities by A.D.1625. Archaeological excavations of their complex raised field systems and technologically-advanced plant storage pits has allowed us to learn a great deal about the plant portions of Oneota diet and the role animals played in Oneota subsistence. My research is a detailed analysis of the animal remains found in eight features (33, 55, 69, 78, 92, 97,102, and 108) during the 2012 University of Wisconsin-La Crosse archaeological field school from the Oneota site called Tremaine (47LC95). This study of faunal remains from a single Oneota site will be used to discuss Oneota subsistence and seasonality at Tremaine with to better understand Oneota adaptation to their environment. |
