Challenging narratives of Indigenous cultural loss and
disappearance that are still prevalent in the archaeological study
of colonization, this book highlights collaborative research and
efforts to center the enduring histories of Native peoples in North
America through case studies from several regions across the
continent. The contributors to this volume, including Indigenous
scholars and Tribal resource managers, examine different ways that
archaeologists can center long-term Indigenous presence in the
practices of fieldwork, laboratory analysis, scholarly
communication, and public interpretation. These conversations range
from ways to reframe colonial encounters in light of Indigenous
persistence to the practicalities of identifying poorly documented
sites dating to the late nineteenth century. In recognizing
Indigenous presence in the centuries after 1492, this volume
counters continued patterns of unknowing in archaeology and offers
new perspectives on decolonizing the field. These essays show how
this approach can help expose silenced histories, modeling research
practices that acknowledge Tribes as living entities with their own
rights, interests, and epistemologies.
