Recent archaeological research on California includes a greater
diversity of models and approaches to the region's past, as older
literature on the subject struggles to stay relevant. This
comprehensive volume offers an in-depth look at the most recent
theoretical and empirical developments in the field including key
controversies relevant to the Golden State: coastal colonization,
impacts of comets and drought cycles, systems of power, Polynesian
contacts, and the role of indigenous peoples in the research
process, among others. With a specific emphasis on those aspects of
California's past that resonate with the state's modern cultural
identity, the editors and contributors--all leading figures in
California archaeology--seek a new understanding of the myth and
mystique of the Golden State.
