内容説明

This unique volume focuses on coastal archaeology, lithic analysis, and ceramic analysis within the study of New England archaeology. These topics represent the major research interests of the late distinguished archaeologist Barbara E. Luedtke, to whom the volume is dedicated. During her 25-year career in New England archaeology, Luedtke paved the way for numerous investigations and archaeologists in the region. This book reflects her scholarship's enormous impact and lasting impression on her colleagues and the development of New England archaeology. The authors discuss various issues pertaining primarily to Native American settlement, subsistence, and technology in New England from as early as the first human occupation of the region-approximately 10,000 B.C.E.-until shortly after European colonization 400 years ago. They also present methodologies, results, analyses, interpretations, and syntheses of important regional studies, which complement and challenge existing models and knowledge. Since some of the papers address current methodological approaches, this book is relevant to other geographic areas, providing a comparative framework for evaluating archaeological research elsewhere.
