NYSAA Bulletin No. 52 — Archaic Sites: Croton Point & Dogan Point — Passage 7 (part 5)

[Various (1971)] In this volume, expected to be in print late in 1971, we have presented our current views, stemming largely from Ritchie's earlier syntheses, on the development of Indian cultures within their total environment-physical, biological, and cultural. The emphasis is on the specific traces of settlements-houses, palisades, camp sites, quarries, etc.-and on their meaning in terms of activities, local resources, subsistence economies, seasonal rounds, and possibly even religioceremonial concepts. Currently Bill has two articles in press; and the sum total of his published writings exceeds 150. A partial listing of Bill's non-research accomplishments is as follows: He was Director of Research, Eastern States Archeological Federation from 1946-50 and President from 1950-54; President of the New York State Archeological Association from 1954-58 and recipient of Fellowship and Achievement Awards from that organization; Fellow of the American Anthropological Association; Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science; Vice President of the Society for American Archaeology 1937-38, President 1956-57,
