(BOOS)-Rethinking Moundville and Its Hinterland (Florida Museum of Natural History: Ripley: Transcript


A substantive addition to our knowledge about one of the premier archaeological sites in eastern North AmericaGeorge Milner author of The Cahokia Chiefdom   Brings fresh thinking into a welltrod path of scholarship and goes well beyond the confines of the specialties of subsistence settlement and technology to shed light on the social function of the Moundville site An enjoyable read for those who relish the interplay between social and political concepts and archaeological dataJames A Brown author of The Spiro Ceremonial Center The Archaeology of Arkansas Valley Caddoan Culture in Eastern Oklahoma   Moundville near Tuscaloosa Alabama is one of the largest preColumbian mound sites in North America Comprising twentynine earthen mounds that were once platforms for chiefly residences and public buildings Moundville was a major political and religious center for the people living in its region and for the wider Mississippian world A muchneeded synthesis of the rapidly expanding archaeological work that has taken place in the region over the past two decades this volume presents the results of multifaceted research and new excavations Using models deeply rooted in local ethnohistory it ties Moundville and its people more closely than before to the ethnography of native southerners and emphasizes the role of social memory iconography and ritual practices both at the mound center and in the rural hinterland providing an uptodate and refreshingly nuanced interpretation of Mississippian culture. ! mobilised data overview / Benefits and possibilities for content providers.

Emphasizes that even though indigenous people were the victims of genocide, they helped to establish a persistent pattern of relations between other Caribbean settlers and their environment, and became central symbols of Caribbean identity and resistance to colonialism. . . . Strongly recommended for every library concerned with Caribbean and native American studies.—ChoiceAn excellent introduction to native peoples of the Caribbean region. . . . Will be useful to anthropologists, historians, and other social scientists working in the Caribbean.--Jerald T. Milanich, Florida Museum of Natural HistoryThis volume brings together nineteen Caribbean specialists to produce the first general introduction to the indigenous peoples of that region. Writing for both general and academic audiences, contributors provide an authoritative, up-to-date picture of these fascinating peoples--their social organization, religion, language, lifeways, and contribution to the culture of their modern descendants--in what is ultimately a comprehensive reader on Caribbean archaeology, ethnohistory, and ethnology.CONTENTS1.

American Archaeology
As the only available synthesis of the archaeology of the Everglades, this book fills an important niche.--
Choice
Adds immeasurably to our knowledge of South Florida archaeology.--
Journal of Field Archaeology
Offers a vivid glimpse into a rich cultural past in an oftentimes misunderstood and overlooked region of our country.--
H-Net
Detailed descriptions of archaeological surveys and test excavations dovetail nicely with broader chapters on settlement, subsistence, and social organization. This is a valuable reference work.--

An extremely important work. . . . John has brought his unprecedented knowledge of the archaeology together with his anthropological and ecological insights, to provide the most thorough synthesis of the predrainage aboriginal use of this area. Now that Congress has mandated the restoration of the Everglades . . . this book will provide researchers as well as the general public with an understanding of what the Everglades were like prior to drainage and how humans utilized this natural wonder.--Randolph J. Widmer, University of Houston Originally prepared as a report for the National Park Service in 1988, Griffin\'s work places the human occupation of the Everglades within the context of South Florida\'s unique natural environmental systems. He documents, for the first time, the little known but relatively extensive precolumbian occupation of the interior portion of the region and surveys the material culture of the Glades area. He also provides an account of the evolution of the region\'s climate and landscape and a history of previous archaeological research in the area and fuses ecological and material evidence into a discussion of the sequence and distribution of cultures, social organization, and lifeways of the Everglades inhabitants. Milanich and Miller have transformed Griffin\'s report into an accessible, comprehensive overview of Everglades archaeology for specialists and the general public. Management plans have been removed, maps redrawn, and updates added. The result is a synthesis of the archaeology of a region that is taking center stage as various state and federal agencies cooperate to restore the health of this important ecosystem, one of the nation\'s most renowned natural areas and one that has been designated a World Heritage Site and a Wetland of International Importance. This book will make a key work in Florida archaeology more readily available as a springboard for future research and will also, at last, allow John Griffin\'s contribution to south Florida archaeology to be more widely appreciated.John W. Griffin, a pioneer in Florida archaeology, was an archaeologist for both the Florida Park Service and the National Park Service (NPS), director of the NPS Southeast Archeological Center in Macon, Georgia, and director of the St. Augustine Preservation Board. Jerald T. Milanich is emeritus professor at the University of Florida/Florida Museum of Natural History and author of numerous books about the native peoples of the Southeast United States. James J. Miller was state archaeologist and chief of Florida’s Bureau of Archaeological Research for twenty years and is now a consultant in heritage planning.\" This is an exceedingly important site for the whole of New World archaeological interpretations. The preservation at this site was phenomenal, with the oldest textiles represented in the Southeast and other artifacts of extreme interest. Glen Doran\'s book is a lasting contribution to the literature on the subject.--Catherine S. Fowler, University of Nevada, RenoThe contents of this volume furnish the most complete, important, interesting, and thoroughly documented account of human activities and intertwining environmental conditions that existed 7,500 years ago in Florida or anywhere in the Western Hemisphere.--Barbara Purdy, professor emerita, University of Florida With respect to the bog burial tradition, Florida is unique, producing one of the largest inventories of North American skeletal remains older than 6,000 years. Near Titusville, Florida, in 1984, excavations began at the Windover archaeological site, the New World\'s largest cemetery of this antiquity. This book is the first complete summary of the multiple investigations conducted there by archaeologists and specialists from across the nation and provides the first detailed overview of the population, and in particular the mortuary customs, from this Early Archaic era. The human remains uncovered at Windover are more numerous than at any site of its date and their preservation is truly phenomenal, making the site an unparalleled research opportunity. In addition to brain tissue, it houses the most complete inventory of organic artifacts that these early people manufactured and used, including a complex group of objects made from bone, antler, wood, and fabric seldom preserved in sites of this age and the largest collection of hand-woven materials from this period in the New World. With increasing controversy surrounding the disturbance of Native American human burial sites and legislation designed to restrict investigation of such places, Windover may be one of the last large, truly unique cemetery investigations and analyses that American archaeology will undertake.1.  Introduction to Wet Sites and Windover (8BR246) Investigations, by G.
