A notable contribution to North American archaeological literature,
The Archaeology of the Atlantic Northeast is the first book to
integrate and interpret archaeological data from the entire
Atlantic Northeast, making unprecedented cultural connections
across a broad region that encompasses the Canadian Atlantic
provinces, the Quebec Lower North Shore, and Maine. Beginning with
the earliest Indigenous occupation of the area, this book presents
a cultural overview of the Atlantic Northeast, and weaves together
the histories of the Indigenous peoples whose traditional lands
make up this territory, including the Innu, Beothuk, Inuit, and
numerous Wabanaki bands and tribes. Emphasizing historical
connection and cultural continuity, The Archaeology of the Atlantic
Northeast tracks the development of the earliest peoples in this
area as they responded to climate and ecosystem change by
transforming their glacier-edge way of life to one on the water's
edge, becoming one of the most successful and longstanding
marine-oriented cultures in North America. Supported by more than a
hundred illustrations and maps documenting the archaeological
legacy, as well as discussions of unanswered questions intended to
spur debate, this comprehensive text is ideal for students,
researchers, professional archaeologists, and anyone interested in
the history of this region.
