Geoarchaeology is the application of geoscience to the study of
archaeological deposits and the archaeological record. Employing
techniques from pedology, geomorphology, sedimentology,
geochronology, and stratigraphy, geoarchaeologists investigate and
interpret sediments, soils and landforms at the focal points of
archaeological research.
Edited by Rolfe D. Mandel and with contributions by John
Albanese, Joe Allen Artz, E. Arthur Bettis III, C. Reid Ferring,
Vance T. Holliday, David W. May, and Mandel, this volume traces the
history of all major projects, researchers, theoretical
developments, and sites contributing to our geoarchaeological
knowledge of North America's Great Plains. The book provides a
historical overview and explores theoretical questions that
confront geoarchaeologists working in the Great Plains, where North
American geoarchaeology emerged as a discipline.
