PDF-(DOWNLOAD)-The Indigenous People of the Caribbean (Florida Museum of Natural History:

A survey of the current state of study of indigenous Caribbean people by archaeologists historians and anthropologists 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 studiesChoiceAn excellent introduction to native peoples of the Caribbean region Will be useful to anthropologists historians and other social scientists working in the CaribbeanJerald 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 uptodate picture of these fascinating peoplestheir social organization religion language lifeways and contribution to the culture of their modern descendantsin what is ultimately a comprehensive reader on Caribbean archaeology ethnohistory and ethnologyCONTENTS1 Introduction Samuel M WilsonPart 1 Background to the Archaeology and Ethnohistory of the Caribbean2 The Study of Aboriginal Peoples Multiple Ways of Knowing Ricardo Alegría3 The Lesser Antilles Before Columbus Louis AllairePart 2 The Encounter4 The Biological Impacts of 1492 Richard L Cunningham5 The Salt River Site St Croix at the Time of the Encounter Birgit Faber Morse6 European Views of the Aboriginal Population Alissandra CumminsPart 3 The First Migration of Village Farmers 500 BC to AD 8007 Settlement Strategies in the Early Ceramic Age Jay B Haviser8 The Ceramics Art and Material Culture of the Early Ceramic Period in the Caribbean Islands Elizabeth Righter9 Religious Beliefs of the Saladoid People Miguel Rodríguez10 Maritime Trade in the Prehistoric Eastern Caribbean David R Watters11 Notes on Ancient Caribbean Art and Mythology Henry Petitjean RogetPart 4 The Taino of the Greater Antilles on the Eve of Conquest12 No Man or Woman Is an Island Elements of Taino Social Organization William F Keegan13 Taino Island Carib and Prehistoric Amerindian Economies in the West Indies Tropical Forest Adaptations to Island Environments James B Petersen14 The Material Culture of the Taino Indians Ignacio Olazagasti15 The Taino Cosmos José R Oliver16 Some Observations on the Taino Language Arnold R Highfield17 The Taino Vision A Study in the Exchange of Misunderstanding Henry Petitjean RogetPart 5 The Island Caribs of the Lesser Antilles18 The Caribs of the Lesser Antilles Louis Allaire19 Language and Gender among the Kalinago of 15th Century St Croix Vincent O CooperPart 6 Indigenous Resistance and Survival20 The Garifuna of Central America Nancie L Gonzalez21 The Legacy of the Indigenous People of the Caribbean Samuel M Wilson22 Five Hundred Years of Indigenous Resistance Garnette JosephSamuel M Wilson is associate professor of anthropology at the University of Texas Austin He is author of Hispaniola Caribbean Chiefdoms in the Age of Columbus 1990 coeditor of Ethnohistory and Archaeology Approaches to Postcontact Change in the Americas 1993 and a contributing editor and columnist for Natural History magazine.

Sets a course for exciting new directions in archaeology at the edge of the American South and the broader Caribbean world.”—Christopher B. Rodning, coeditor of Archaeological Studies of Gender in the Southeastern United States “Successfully repositions the story of Florida’s native peoples from the peripheries of history and anthropology to center stage.”—Thomas E. Emerson, author of Cahokia and the Archaeology of Power Given its pivotal location between the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico, its numerous islands, its abundant flora and fauna, and its subtropical climate, Florida has long been ideal for human habitation. Yet Florida traditionally has been considered peripheral in the study of ancient cultures in North America, despite what it can reveal about social and climate change. The essays in this book resoundingly argue that Florida is in fact a crucial hub of archaeological inquiry.New Histories of Pre-Columbian Florida represents the next wave of southeastern archaeology. Contributors use new data to challenge well-worn models of environmental determinism and localized social contact. Indeed, this volume makes a case for considerable interaction and exchange among Native Floridians and the greater southeastern United States as seen by the variety of objects of distant origin and mound-building traditions that incorporated extraregional concepts. Themes of monumentality, human alterations of landscapes, the natural environment, ritual and mortuary practices, and coastal adaptations demonstrate the diversity, empirical richness, and broader anthropological significance of Florida’s aboriginal past. 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.
