Seminoles, A People Who Never Surrendered
http://www.seminolenation-indianterritory.org/
"The Seminole are classified among the Muskogean peoples, a group of
remnant tribes having joined in forming this division in Florida during
the border wars between the Spanish and the English colonists on the
Florida-Carolina frontier in the 18th century. The name Seminole, first
applied to the tribe about 1778, is from the Creek word 'semino le',
meaning 'runaway,' meaning emigrants who left the main body and settled
elsewhere.
In 1817, with the accusation that the Seminole were harboring runaway
slaves, Andrew Jackson commanded nearly 3,000 troops to attack and burn
the town of Mikasuki, starting the first Seminole War. Shortly thereafter,
Spain ceded Florida to the U.S., bringing the Seminole under U.S.
jurisdiction. A treaty later provided the tribe with a reserved tract east
of Tampa Bay.
In 1832, the Payne's Landing Treaty took away all Florida land claims from
the tribe, and provided for removal to Indian Territory. Ratification of
that treaty in 1834 allowed the Seminole three years before the removal
was to take place. But under the U.S. government's interpretation, 1835
(not 1837) ended the three year period prior to removal. The Seminole
disagreed, and their bitter opposition resulted in the second, or Great
Seminole War. Among the worst chapters in the history of Indian Removal,
the war lasted almost seven years and cost thousands of lives. It finally
ended in 1842 with the agreement that several hundred members of the tribe
could remain in Florida. They stayed in the Florida swamps but never
surrendered. Their descendants are the Seminole in Florida today."

Help in Browsing Ad*Access
"Browsing the Ad*Access database allows you to search within each of the
five main categories, one at a time. Each category is further broken down
by a number of subcategories and dates. For example, Railroads:1950 is a
subcategory within the broad category of Transportation; the time period
1939-1947 is a subcategory of Television.
To look for advertisements within any one of the five main categories,
select "Browse" beside the category name. You will see a list of all the
subcategories. You may choose any one of the displayed subcategories or
you may use the box at the very top of the page to enter keywords (e.g.

The Radio and Television categories also have additional subcategory
options. These subcategories lead you to specialized topics related to the
radio and television electronics industry.
Selecting "History" beside each main category will link to a brief
historical overview of that topic. For additional background information
on the subject categories, companies, or products, see the bibliographic
references found at the end of most of the background texts or use library

Frequently Asked Questions
About the Ad*Access Project
<http://scriptorium.lib.duke.edu/adaccess/faq.html>
Why does the site cover only 1911 - 1955? And why does it include only
five product categories instead of ads for all sorts of things?
What is this "Competitive Advertisements Collection?"
Will there be more advertisements added to this site?
Why am I having trouble getting a clear image when I try to enlarge the
thumbnail? Can I print a clear image from this site?
How can I get a non-electronic copy (e.g. slide, color photocopy) of an
advertisement from this site, or a copy of an advertisement that is in the
Hartman Center's collection but not on the Web?
I want to publish an advertisement from this site. There is no company
contact information listed on the Copyright page. What do I do next?
Where can I find information about the companies and products that are
included in this site?
Does the Hartman Center have other advertisements from the 1911-1955 time
period that are not available on the web?
How can I find out about other advertisement collections at the Hartman
Center that are not up on the web?
How can I find other historical advertisement collections on the web?
How can I find out about advertisement collections in other libraries?
I found a mistake in an advertisement image or information. How can I let
you know?
I have some old advertisements - are they worth anything? Whom do I
contact if I would like to donate ads or other advertising historical
items to your collection? Will they be put up on the web site, too?
Why are some of the images not displaying in my browser?
What should I do if I have comments about Ad*Access or more questions that
are not answered here?

2010 POLITICAL PREDICTIONS
SOCIETY
A Reconfigured Filipino Family
by Michael L. Tan
SO how did you spend Christmas? With your family, right? Or at least
that's what you would have wanted.
If there is anything that defines the Filipino, that is our close ties
to our family. But the Filipino family has been getting redefined and
reconfigured in the last two decades at a rather fast clip. By 2010,
the Filipino family may be far different from what we knew it to be
just a decade ago.
In the latest piece in the i Report series on political predictions
for 2010, medical anthropologist Michael L. Tan examines the impact
that political policies have had on the Filipino family so far. He
cites several laws that have led to profound changes on the family,
but he narrows down the factors that have had the most effect to: the
worsening income inequity; erosion of social services; massive
diaspora (including internal migration); and increasing feminization
of labor.
"All four factors are inter-related, often in ways that may not be
readily apparent," writes Tan. "For example, many of the nurses who
leave to work overseas are older women, forced to leave behind
families. But besides the direct loss for families, their departure
also means a scarcity of trained frontline personnel in both public
and private health facilities jeopardizing the health of Filipino
families."
"Taken collectively," he adds, "these four developments have already
been reshaping Filipino families over the last two decades. The years
leading us into 2010 will only see an intensification of these four
factors, with mixed results."

As a public-private partnership between the White House Millennium Council
and the National Trust for Historic Preservation, Save America's Treasures
is "dedicated to the celebration and preservation of our nation's
irreplaceable historic and cultural legacy." The Utah Museum of Natural
History applied for and was awarded the grant to conserve 250 fragile
leather moccasins and moccasin fragments, which are part of a larger
collection excavated from Promontory Cave on the Great Salt Lake.
Promontory Cave Site, Utah, 2000. Eric Kankainen.
Conservation of the moccasins will ensure the future integrity of this
significant collection, and will return many of the moccasins to a
condition similar to their original forms. In this state, information
embedded in the moccasins - construction techniques, wear patterns and
repairs, embellishment methods, and materials used - is rendered visible.
Through these conservation efforts much will be learned from the
Promontory moccasins.
Julian Steward, one of the country's foremost 20th century
anthropologists, conducted the Promontory Cave excavations on behalf of
the University of Utah. Steward argued that a unique hunting culture was
present around the Great Salt Lake between the time of the prehistoric
Fremont (ca.650-1250 AD) and the historic Shoshone, but unrelated to
either. The unusual puckered-toe moccasins from this site have been
radio-carbon dated to between AD 1100 - 1600 AD.
Toward Safe Long-Term Storage for the Moccasins
The moccasins were collected in the 1930's and have been stored at various
locations on the University of Utah campus since then. In 1973, they were
transferred to the Museum. Conditions at each location varied greatly in
terms of temperature, humidity, and general storage accommodations.
<snip>
The Promontory Cave Moccasin Conservation Effort
<snip>
The Museum has contracted with Dr. Nancy Odegaard, a professional
conservator, to examine the moccasins and to work with anthropology and
textile lab staff to conserve and re-house the collection.
