Descripción Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. This volume surveys the archaeology of Native North Americans from their arrival on the continent 15,000 years ago up to contact with European colonizers. Offering rich descriptions of monumental structures, domestic architecture, vibrant objects, and spiritual forces, Timothy R. Pauketat and Kenneth E. Sassaman show how indigenous people shaped both their history and North America's many varied environments. They place the student in the past as they trace how Native Americans dealt with challenges such as climate change, the rise of social hierarchies and political power, and ethnic conflict. Written in a clear and engaging style with a compelling narrative, The Archaeology of Ancient North America presents the grand historical themes and intimate stories of ancient Americans in full, living color. This text introduces the archaeology of Native North Americans to a new generation of students and laypeople who demand more than stereotypes and sterile facts. Not just an evolutionary outline, this book presents a rich cultural history and a series of interrelated narratives about a continent's people over 15,000 years.
