Guide to Palaeolithic Artifacts and Features of the Americas
Guide to Palaeolithic Artifacts and Features of the Americas is the go-to reference for stone, bone, antler, ivory, and wooden artifacts of the Palaeolithic era in the Americas. Written by Ricard Michael Gramly, an expert in the field, this book canvases a century of archaeological literature and scholarship and includes over 150 images to clearly and efficiently classify the artifacts discussed. Each artifact includes all the terms and synonyms by which it is classified, a visual depiction of the artifact, and the time period in which the artifact occurred in. Combining both Old and New World technologies, typologies and practices, this book is a must-have compilation for professional and amateur archaeologists, collectors of Palaeolithic artifacts, and the casual reader interested in the history of the Americas.
Summary of Becky Cooper's We Keep the Dead Close
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 On January 7, 1969, the second day of reading period, five anthropology doctoral students were assembled in a lecture hall at the top of the Peabody Museum. If they failed, they risked getting moved off the PhD track into a terminal master’s. #2 I live in a mansion called Apthorp House, which is part of Harvard’s Adams House dorms. It is haunted, and the ghost is General Burgoyne, a British officer who was held captive in the house during the Revolutionary War. #3 I have been haunted by a murder that took place a few steps away. It was told to me like a ghost story: a young woman, a Harvard graduat...
Schroeppel
Carved out of the wilderness at the end of the Revolutionary War, Schroeppel is a central New York town located in the southern section of Oswego County. The town comprises the communities of Oak Orchard, Gilberts Mills, Pennellville, and Phoenix. Schroeppel presents the unique story of this town from the days of the Paleo Indians of eleven thousand years ago to the suburban growth that reached the town by the 1980s. With a selection of some two hundred photographs, the book portrays the daily life of farmers whose hard work built and sustained the town; the site of the first frame house in the town (that of George C. Schroeppel); Underground Railroad routes; and the place where tools and other implements of daily life were invented and perfected.

Archaeology of Prehistoric Native America
First published in 1998. Did prehistoric humans walk to North America from Siberia? Who were the inhabitants of the spectacular Anasazi cliff dwellings in the Southwest and why did they disappear? Native Americans used acorns as a major food source, but how did they get rid of the tannic acid which is toxic to humans? How does radiocarbon dating work and how accurate is it? Written for the informed lay person, college-level student, and professional, Archaeology of Prehistoric Native America: An Encyclopedia is an important resource for the study of the earliest North Americans; including facts, theories, descriptions, and speculations on the ancient nomads and hunter-gathers that populated continental North America.
Late Pleistocene Archaeology and Ecology in the Far Northeast
The Far Northeast, a peninsula incorporating the six New England states, New York east of the Hudson, Quebec south of the St. Lawrence River and Gulf of St. Lawrence, and the Maritime Provinces, provided the setting for a distinct chapter in the peopling of North America. Late Pleistocene Archaeology and Ecology in the Far Northeast focuses on the Clovis pioneers and their eastward migration into this region, inhospitable before 13,500 years ago, especially in its northern latitudes. Bringing together the last decade or so of research on the Paleoindian presence in the area, Claude Chapdelaine and the contributors to this volume discuss, among other topics, the style variations in the fluted...
