Pages are fresh and crisp -- apparently never read. NO underlining. NO highlighting. NO margin notes. Illustrated with figures/diagrams and photographs of artifacts. Tables. List of chapter notes/sources. Bibliographical references. Index. "This is an impressive work a benchmark study that has important implications for the way archaeologists look at the interaction between Natives and Europeans." -- Marvin T. Smith coauthor of COOSA: THE RISE AND FALL OF A SOUTHEASTERN MISSISSIPPIAN CHIEFDOM." From the rear cover: "Kathleen Ehrhardt's research addresses the early technological responses of one particular group the Late Protohistoric Illinois Indians to the availability of European-introduced metal objects. To do so she applied a complementary suite of archaeometric methods to a sample of 806 copper-base metal artifacts excavated from securely dated domestic contexts at the Iliniwek Village Historic Site in Clark County Missouri. Ehrhardt's scientific findings are integrated with observations from historical archaeological and archival research to place metal use by this group in a broad social context. In revealing actual Native practice from material selection and procurement to ultimate discard the author challenges acculturation perspectives on and technocentric explanations for Native material and cultural change at contact. Kathleen L. Ehrhardt is Research Associate at the Illinois State Museum in Springfield Illinois." . First Edition. Trade Paperback. Near Fine condition. xiv 253pp. The University of Alabama Press.
