商品描述

Two common questions asked in archaeological investigations are: where did a particular culture come from, and which living cultures is it related to? In this book, Robert A. Cook brings a theoretically and methodologically holistic perspective to his study on the origins and continuity of Native American villages in the North American Midcontinent. He shows that to affiliate archaeological remains with descendant communities fully we need to unaffiliate some of our well-established archaeological constructs. Cook demonstrates how and why Native American villages formed and responded to events such as migration, environment and agricultural developments. He focuses on the big picture of cultural relatedness over broad regions and the amount of social detail that can be gleaned from archaeological and biological data, as well as oral histories.

兩個在考古調查中常見的問題是:特定文化的起源是什麼,以及它與哪些現存文化有關?在這本書中,Robert A. Cook 以理論和方法論的整體觀點來研究北美中部地區美洲原住民村莊的起源和延續。他指出,為了將考古遺跡與後裔社群完全聯繫起來,我們需要放棄一些已建立的考古構想。Cook 展示了美洲原住民村莊是如何形成的,以及它們如何對遷徙、環境和農業發展等事件作出反應。他專注於文化相關性的全局觀,涵蓋廣泛的地區,以及從考古和生物數據以及口述歷史中可以獲得的社會細節。
