Items related to The Development of Southeastern Archaeology
Synopsis
Ten scholars whose specialties range from ethnohistory to remote sensing and lithic analysis to bioarchaeology chronicle changes in the way prehistory in the Southeast has been studied since the 19th century. Each brings to the task the particular perspective of his or her own subdiscipline in this multifaceted overview of the history of archaeology in a region that has had an important but variable role in the overall development of North American archaeology.
Some of the specialties discussed in this book were traditionally relegated to appendixes or ignored completely in site reports more than 20 years old. Today, most are integral parts of such reports, but this integration has been hard won. Other specialties have been and will continue to be of central concern to archaeologists. Each chapter details the way changes in method can be related to changes in theory by reviewing major landmarks in the literature. As a consequence, the reader can compare the development of each subdiscipline.
As the first book of this kind to deal specifically with the region, it be will valuable to archaeologists everywhere. The general reader will find the book of interest because the development of southeastern archaeology reflects trends in the development of social science as a whole.
Contributors include:
Jay K. Johnson, David S. Brose, Jon L. Gibson, Maria O. Smith, Patricia K. Galloway, Elizabeth J. Reitz, Kristen J. Gremillion, Ronald L. Bishop, Veletta Canouts, and W. Fredrick Limp

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Ten scholars with specialities ranging from ethno-history to remote sensing and lithic analysis to bio-archaeology chronicle the changes in the way prehistory in the South-east has been studied since the 19th century. Each brings to the task the particular perspective provided by his or her own subdiscipline. The result is a multifaceted overview of the history of archaeology in a region that has played an important but variable role in the overall development of North American archaeology.

As a consequence, the reader can compare the development of each of the subdisciplines, which is not always uniform. Also, each chapter provides access to a different aspect of the rich literature on south-eastern prehistory. The book should be valuable to south-eastern archaeologists. Because many of the major figures in American archaeology have worked in the south-east, the book also provides important insights for archaeologists everywhere.
