Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Tracking Ancient Footsteps celebrates William D. Lipe's five-decade career in Southwestern and conservation archaeology. From the arid expanses of Glen Canyon, the Red Rock Plateau, and Cedar Mesa in Utah, to the relatively lush Dolores Valley and Mesa Verde regions of Colorado, Lipe participated in the key projects defining much of what is known today about the ancient Native American past in the Southwest. And, in 1974, he provided a timely definition for "public archaeology" that influences researchers and land managers to the present time. In Tracking Ancient Footsteps, nine of his close colleagues share their experiences, providing a chronology of one man's life intersecting with our understanding of Southwestern Prehistory, the role of government land-holding agencies, and the archaeological profession as a whole. Follow along as a top expert in Southwest archaeology explores and excavates prehistoric sites in the Glen Canyon, Cedar Mesa, and Crow Canyon regions of Arizona, Colorado, and Utah, formulating ideas and drawing conclusions from the research data as he strives to preserve archaeological sites for future generations. Currently a professor emeritus at WSU, Dr. Lipe also has assumed leading roles in the Southwestern Anthropological Research Group, the Dolores Archaeological Project, and the Society for American Archaeology. In Tracking Ancient Footsteps, individuals who worked and interacted with him share their experiences and provide a chronology of one man's life as it intersects with the understanding of Southwestern prehistory, and the archaeological profession as a whole.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Migration as an instrument of cultural change is an undeniable feature of the archaeological record. Yet reliable methods of identifying migration are not always accessible. In Athapaskan Migrations, authors R. G. Matson and Martin P. R. Magne use a variety of methods to identify and describe the arrival of the Athapaskan-speaking Chilcotin Indians in west central British Columbia. By contrasting two similar geographic areas--using the parallel direct historical approach--the authors define this aspect of Athapaskan culture. They present a sophisticated model of Northern Athapaskan migrations based on extensive archaeological, ethnographic, and dendrochronological research. A synthesis of 25 years of work, Athapaskan Migrations includes detailed accounts of field research in which the authors emphasize ethnic group identification, settlement patterns, lithic analysis, dendrochronology, and radiocarbon dating. Their theoretical approach will provide a blueprint for others wishing to establish the ethnic identity of archaeological materials. Chapter topics include basic methodology and project history; settlement patterns and investigation of both the Plateau Pithouse and British Columbia Athapaskan Traditions; regional surveys and settlement patterns; excavated Plateau Pithouse Tradition and Athapaskan sites and their dating; ethnic identification of recovered material; the Chilcotin migration in the context of the greater Pacific Athapaskan, Navajo, and Apache migrations; and summaries and results of the excavations. The text is abundantly illustrated with more than 70 figures and includes access to convenient online appendixes. This substantial work will be of special importance to archaeologists, anthropologists, linguists, and scholars in Athapaskan studies and Canadian First Nation studies.
