Description: | The twenty chapters of this book introduce the reader to many previously unknown aspects of the social, political, and ceremonial lives of local Hopewellian peoples, especially those in the northern Woodlands of Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois. Diverse leadership roles with sacred and secular bases of power; the development of institutionalized, multicommunity leadership positions from classical shamanism over time; the animal-totemic clans of local societies and their relative wealth, size, networking, and access to leadership positions; the simplicity of social ranking and its low priority for symboling; gender distinctions and relationships as seen in the access of the sexes to leadership positions and sodality membership, day-to-day tasks, workload, and health |
