SOURCES FOR SOUTH DAKOTA PREHISTORY
Compiled and annotated by Karen P. Zimmerman and Larry J. Zimmerman
This annotated bibliography is essentially a third edition. The original had the same title as this one, but was not annotated. Published in 1981 as Special Publication 5 of the South Dakota Archaeological Society it contained slightly more than 600 sources. The second iteration came in 1993 in The Sioux and Other Native American Cultures of the Dakotas: An Annotated Bibliography (Herbert T. Hoover and Karen Zimmerman, eds., Greenwood Press). This version actually contained fewer citations because it eliminated CRM reports that provided no primary site data.
Citations in this W3 version include all published sources on South Dakota archaeology and prehistory that contain significant information of a general nature or on specific sites. Reports on surveys that resulted in the discovery of no sites are not included. Some contract reports of a more general nature, such as shoreline surveys, which usually include a great number of sites, are included, as are cultural resources survey reports that describe sites in areas of the state not documented in other sources. It should be noted that these reports are in most instances the only places in which information about sites can be found. There are few compiliations of the CRM reports.
Our intention is to update the bibliography past 1993 and to make the entire bibliography searchable. In the meantime, if you would like a searchable bibliography for use on your own computer, simply download the text in ascii and use your word processor for searches (about 260k). We would simply like acknowledgment that you have done so. You can also use the Find function on your browser (under the Edit pull down menu in Mosaic, Netscape and Internet Explorer) to search by topic. "Find" is very fast, and by using your clipboard you can quickly build a bibliography for use by your word processor
Most of the materials listed here can be examined at the following locations: State Historical Preservation Office, Pierre; the South Dakota State Archaeological Center, Rapid City; University of South Dakota Archaeology Laboratory, Vermillion; Archaeology Laboratory, Augustana College, Sioux Falls, and several other college and university libraries within the state.
If you find that we have left out significant sources, please e-mail us with the complete citation and an annotation. We will then add you to our contributors list. We would like to acknowledge Ali Zimmerman who did most of the markup on the document.
