ASAIL Newsletter, N.S. Vol. 2, No. 2, Summer, 1978 Editor: Karl Kroeber, Columbia University Bibliographer: LaVonne Ruoff, Univ. Illinois, Chicago We are swamped with essays, reviews, notes, announcements, bibliographical material. Even putting out four numbers this year won't catch us up with what we already have in hand. And in our opinion what we have published and will publish in the Newsletter is of remarkable quality. In order to keep publishing rapidly we must cut non-paying subscribers from our list. An annual subscription for individuals and libraries (does your library subscribe?) is $2.00). No copies of N.S. Vol. 1 remain. If we can obtain enough in voluntary contributions to cover costs, we will reissue Vol 1. lf you or your library is interested, contact the editor.

American Indians Timeline Return to algis.com 6,000BC The Wappo Indians settle in the area northern California around Mt. Konocti 8,000 years ago. The eruption of Mt. Konocti millions of years earlier left a fissure in the earth through which ground water reaches the hot magma at 4,000 feet, and resurfaces as Indian Springs' three thermal geysers at 212 degrees. The water rises through old sea beds adding rich mineral and salt traces. (Flyer on Indian Springs, 7/95) c6,000BC The Hokan Indians preceded the Miwoks in Northern California. (SFEC, 10/4/98, p.B5) 200-1215 The Fremont people lived in Utah and etched into rock designs of animals and people. (SFEC, 3/14/99, p.T8,9) c300-1300 The Anasazis inhabited the Canyon de Chelly and the Canyon del Muerto in northeast Arizona over this period. (SFEC, 11/29/98, p.T8) c600-1300 Pueblo Indians built their Cliff Palace at Mesa Verde (Colorado). (SFC, 7/25/00, p.A3) 750AD Native peoples in southwest Colorado started building stone houses above ground, first one-story, then two. Ruins of these are scattered over the landscape and have the look of ones the Pueblo Indians-Hopi, Zuni and others-of the Southwest live in today. Added beans, an important source of protein, to their diets, and began making simple grayware pots. Had bows and arrows. (HN, 2/11/97)

Empowering energy also came from hosting the Ceremony in front of the Ontario County Courthouse where Susan B. Anthony was sentenced for the "crime of (women) voting." Her vision and boldness was thanks to her Suffragette friendship with the Iroquois Clan Mothers, who modeled the American Women's Movement. Jemison carried that unity energy in his blood.

M ore L aw YOUR PLACE OR MINE? NEW RULES FOR TRIBAL SOVEREIGN IMMUNITY* By Mike McBride III I. Introduction Current Tribal Economic Development in Oklahoma Tribes have developed diverse economic development projects to benefit tribal governments. These projects often involve commercial agreements, bank loans, leases, or other contracts between tribes and non-Indian developers, banks, promoters, managers and customers. Examples include: ¨ the Chickasaw Nation has purchased two radio stations, provides the only local internet access for the Ada area, and operates a number of successful convenience stores, motor fuel stations and bingo gaming facilities; All of these tribal economic development projects fund vital tribal government services such as police and fire protection, health care, meals and care for elders, child and family services such as counseling, crisis intervention and family support and basic administrative governmental services. The economic success of Indian Nations in Oklahoma raises the standard of living for tribal members, cuts dependence on federal and state welfare programs and provides jobs to Indians and non-Indians alike.

The name Indian was first applied to them by Christopher Columbus, who believed mistakenly that the mainland and islands of America were part of the Indies, in Asia. This article focuses on the Indians of North America, Mesoamerica, and South America. The indigenous population at the time of European contact is estimated, the general physical characteristics of native American peoples are described, and a summary is given of what is known about their arrival and early prehistory in the New World. The major culture areas of North, Central, and South America are discussed, and a survey follows of the traditional ways of life of American Indians. Social and political organization are considered, as well as their food, clothing, and housing, their trade, religion, and warfare, and their crafts, visual arts, music, and dance. Finally, the history of American Indians after European contact and their condition today in North and Latin America are examined. Early Population.

Selected Acquisitions Spring 2000 With a supplement on the Siebert sale Compiled by the Beinecke Library curatorial staff Book of the Dead (Chapters 18-24). Egypt, 7th or 8th century BCE. This group of fragments from a papyrus roll of the Book of the Dead includes portions of Chapters 18-24; further portions of the same roll are in the Louvre. Only pharaohs were permitted to use royal cartouches around their names, and the name of the original commissioner of this roll, Pedenemty, has such a cartouche. He is not attested outside of this roll, which apparently dates to the twenty-sixth dynasty. It is possible that he was a local pharaoh in Upper Egypt or one of the Kushite rulers. The text is written in vertical columns of cursive hieroglyphs, in black ink with red rubrics and vignettes. Cicero. Paradoxa Stoicorum. Leipzig, 1492. This edition of Cicero's treatise, printed for university students in Leipzig, includes the first appearance of Johann Gabriel Senensis' commentary on the text. It is extremely rare, with no copies of the edition recorded in North American libraries. A contemporary German student has added in manuscript additional commentary, from interlinear glosses to extended annotations in the margins. The manuscript additions are apparently classroom lecture notes. Teseo Ambrogio.
