Biographical/Historical note
Biographical/Historical note
Pictures of Record, Inc. publishes scholarly annotated images, largely for use in teaching. The set on "Late Caddo Culture (Caddo III-V)" was annotated by Frank F. Schambach and Ann M. Early of the Arkansas Archeological Survey. According to Schambach and Early, "In 1200, the Caddo on the southwest edge of the Eastern woodland not only retained, but elaborated disappearing Mississippian traits. Temple mounds were in use in 1692 and the great ceramic tradition reached a peak around 1700."
