This volume presents multiple idiographic, archaeological studies
of vernacular watercraft from North America and the Caribbean.
Rather than attempt to synthesize all vernacular types, this volume
focuses on ship construction data recovered through archaeological
investigations that has been used to make inferences about culture.
This collection of case studies, including many examples from
cultural resource management and graduate student theses, presents
a thematic exploration of cultural adaptation as expressed through
ship construction.
