@CharlesCMann Also tribute would not need to be brought in “from faraway centers”. Would be shipped from nearer centers which in turn receive shipments from “faraway centers” in nodal system. Think Amazon logistics centers. Power to maintain these networks = paramount chiefdom

@CharlesCMann I do not have such data for “all corn”. Nor did I claim to. But it’s known some corn was brought in as tribute. Maybe Cahokia would go this route for special occasions and thus left mound sites corn-free. Just another reason your initial fetishizing “critique” was maybe silly

[Guy Quinn @_Guy_Quinn_]

@CharlesCMann The “critique”, study references, symbolic notations, obscure terminology, elaborate explanations of esoteric processes … are you fetishizing the history of these people? Noticed the same thing when I schooled you re: the horse study in Nature a couple years back

[Guy Quinn @_Guy_Quinn_]

@CharlesCMann what good is a chiefdom if you can’t demand corn tribute from client network extending from upper Mississippi to Appalachians? Maybe then paramount Cahokia could keep the mound complex corn-free for ritual sacrifices and whatnot

[Guy Quinn @_Guy_Quinn_]

@CharlesCMann Some corn may have been grown here. It (like all corn) would have been planted in a rotations. Therefore it was silly to suggest the subject image deserves “critique” because it shows no corn. Maybe just admit this or move on.

[Guy Quinn @_Guy_Quinn_]

@CharlesCMann a field like that would be skipped sometimes in corn rotation since they could not eat your precious concepts and theories

@gvedak Is Hartman a 5 tool guy?

@TimothySandefur Maybe he was opening wide the sonic overton window and creative soloists behind him like Hendrix climbed through it to Pop mainstream.

@charlesmurray He meant he’d shot intruding dogs coming after his stock I’m sure. Noem says she shot her own dog

[Guy Quinn @_Guy_Quinn_]

@roddreher It’s “essentially” a qualified bomb. Maybe

[Guy Quinn @_Guy_Quinn_]

@gvedak Idk man classic Murphy keeps both hands on the bat. Not saying it’s good or bad, just saying this looks different

@RepDanCrenshaw @RandyEBarnett Ask him if USA is a “democratic republic”. Your mind may be blown (the answer is yes). Maybe you’re just kind of playing word games?

[Guy Quinn @_Guy_Quinn_]

@CharlesCMann Of course they were initially overwhelmed. So overwhelmed that you literally can’t name tribes who lacked access to guns because their names ceased to exist.

@jaynordlinger Hamilton would have been fine with all of this. Henry and Jefferson not so much. It’s the origin story of our factions in a nutshell.

[Guy Quinn @_Guy_Quinn_]

@CharlesCMann So, far from “dismiss[ing] the idea that there’s any real evidence for anything before” Clovis or claiming “it’s all Clovis”, Chatters et al specifically name other such groups and they name extirpation as likely reason for relative underrepresentation of horse in Anzick studies.

[Guy Quinn @_Guy_Quinn_]

@CharlesCMann In Another example, Wally’s Beach is discussed. Chatters et al wrote that horse “were hunted at Wally’s Beach, just before the onset of the Clovis interval” and stated it’s possible horse “had become extirpated …by the later part of the Clovis era, represented by Anzick.”
