Recent investigations of Morton Village, a Mississippian and Oneota community formed following Oneota migration into the central Illinois River valley around AD 1300, focus on evaluating the social context for the remarkable violence evidenced at the adjacent Norris Farms 36 cemetery. Here, we use the concepts of thirdspace and hybridity to examine three areas of village life: creation of the physical structure of the village, ritual, and foodways. Within these three areas, we identify transformations of Mississippian and Oneota practices that support the interpretation that villagers were engaged in the formation of a coalescent community.

打造社区：莫顿村混杂与融合的意义

莫顿村是密西西比和奥尼奥塔社区，在公元 1300 年左右迁移到伊利诺斯河中部后形成，最近对莫顿村的调查重点是评估附近诺里斯农场 36 公墓发生的显着暴力事件的社会背景。在这里，我们使用第三空间和混合性的概念来检查村庄生活的三个方面：村庄物理结构的创建、仪式和饮食方式。在这三个领域内，我们确定了密西西比州和奥尼奥塔州实践的转变，这些转变支持村民参与形成联合社区的解释。
