Models of cultural dynamics for southwestern New York depend heavily on the long-standing assumption that the region's earthworks are defensive fortifications associated with late prehistoric/protohistoric villages. This assumption rests largely on analogy with the historic stockaded villages of various Iroquoian groups. We suggest an alternate interpretation for some earthwork sites. Evidence from older collections and recent test excavations of the Ripley site in Chautauqua County, New York, does not correspond with Parker's (1907) interpretation of this earthwork site as a fortified village and cemetery complex. Instead, mortuary activities may have been the primary site function. We are testing this preliminary reinterpretation through analyses of materials from controlled, large-scale excavations. Our work to date demonstrates the need for systematic study to assess assumptions about the earthworks of southwestern New York and their context in the Great Lakes region. There is urgency for undertaking such investigations, since few of these sites survive and there is no plan for their preservation.

Arthur C. Parker was the first president of the Society for American Archaeology and a co-founder of the New York State Archaeological Association. During the, first half of this century, Parker made significant contributions to the professionalization of archaeology and to public understanding of the developing discipline as well as substantive contributions to data collection, collation, and reporting. This paper briefly chronicles his career and discusses the impact of Parker's work on the development of archaeological research in New York.
