This volume includes chapters by historical archaeologists engaged
in original research examining the role of the British Empire in
Latin America. The archaeology of Latin America is today a rapidly
expanding field, with new research being accomplished every day.
Currently, the vast amount of research is being focused on the
Spanish Empire and its agents' interactions with the region's
indigenous peoples. Spain, however, was not the only international
power intent on colonizing and controlling Latin America. The
British Empire had a smaller albeit significant role in the
cultural history of Latin America. This history constitutes an
important piece of the historical story of Latin America.
Archaeologies of the British in Latin America presents the results
of original research and begins a dialogue about the archaeology of
the British Empire in Latin America by an international group of
archaeological scholars. Fresh insights on the complex history of
cultural interaction in one of the world's most important regions
are included. It will be of interest to historical archaeologists,
Mesoamerican archaeologists engaged in pre-contact research, Latin
American and global historians, Latin American anthropologists,
material culture specialists, cultural geographers, and others
interested in the cultural history of colonialism in general and in
Latin America in particular.
