Description

Editor: Jelks, Edward B. (1922-2021)

Publisher: Greenwood Press

Pub Date: 1988

Binding: Hardcover

Condition: Fair to Good.  Binding tight.  No marks, tears, bends or folds.  Without dust jacket, as issued.  Very light edge and corner wear.

Notes: Published two years prior to the enacting of NAGPRA, so nothing on that topic.  Probably a tad out of date, but great basic introductions to cultures, phases, areas, types across North America.  Individual archaeologists (Brew, Breternitz,  Schroeder, Lipe, Martin, Rinaldo, et al) are cited in the listings, but not as individuals.  Credit given for excavations, salvage, discoveries, etc. by name.   150 pages of references, and an appendix of sites by state.
