Language Society and Paleoculture: Essays

The three papers of Part III explore the theory of creolization. Part IV comprises five papers on the use of lexical data to probe the cultural and religious past of the Indo-Europeans and the Bantus. The volume concludes with an Author's Postscript in which Polome offers a perspective on his work to date and a complete bibliography of his published work.

Previous owner's name on front end paper. First edition. As a scientific discipline political anthropology is a relatively recent offshoot of social anthropology though a concern wit its problems can be traced at least as far back as Aristotle. This book fulfills a dual function: it is a remarkable concise and comprehensive statement of the scope and methods of the discipline and at the same time a highly critical individual contribution to theoretical discussion. It examines the relation of power to the elementary structures that form its primary base to the types of social stratification that necessitate it and to its ritual links with the sacred.

Stephen R Potter
Commoners Tribute and Chiefs: The Development of Algonquian Culture in the Potomac Valley
xii267 pages with 51 figures and 9 tables and index. Royal octavo 9 1/4" x 6 1/2" bound in original publisher's red cloth with gilt lettering to spine in original pictorial jacket. First edition. When Captain John Smith explored the Potomac River in 1608 it was a frontier between two of the most politically complex Indian cultures in the Middle Atlantic region - the Conoy chiefdom of southern Maryland and the Powhatan chiefdom of eastern Virgina. Some of these diverse Algonquian-speaking peoples acknowledged the over lordship of the Piscataways the largest group of the Conoys others acknowledge the authority of the paramount chief Powhatan and still others like the Patawomekes acknowledged no ruler greater than their own. The rise and fall of these polities is the subject of Commoners Tribute and Chiefs. Using an innovative combination of archaeology anthropology and ethnohistory Stephen Potter traces the rise of one Indian group the Chicacoans whose domain on the south shore of the Potomac straddled the boundary between the Powhatans and the Conoys. By presenting a case study of the Chicacoans from AD 200 to the early seventeenth century Potter offers readers a window onto the development of Algonquian culture in the Chesapeake and illuminates the responses of its constituent societies to the invading Europeans. He examines the stratification of individual chiefdoms into elites and masses of tribute-paying commoners and he demonstrates the progressive consolidation of Algonquian peoples in the century preceding the European influx. While most previous scholarship on the Indians of the Potomac has centered on the historic accounts of Captain John Smith and his contemporaries Potter draws extensively on a wealth of materials encountered during his years of research. His fascinating narrative succeeds both as a detailed archaeological and ethnohistorical study of the Chicacoans and as a comprehensive interpretation of Algonquian culture. Condition: Front heal edge sunned else a near fine copy in a fine jacket. . First Edition. Original Cloth. Near Fine/Fine. Royal octavo. University of Virginia Press hardcover

Royal octavo 9 1/2" x 6 3/" bound in original publisher's beige cloth with blue and brown lettering to spine and brown and blue decorations with pictorial to cover in original pictorial jacket. American Museum of Natural History Science Series volume III. First edition. Since 1498 South America has been penetrated in all directions its numerous rivers ascended and its forests and jungles repeatedly traversed. Not until less than a hundred and fifty years ago has there been any attempt to record the history of these great civilizations whose descendants greeted the caravels of Columbus. Paul Radin in this work has given the first connected picture of these cultures and civilizations.
