A timely update on the state of bioarchaeological research,
offering contributions to the archaeology, prehistory, and history
of the southeastern United States. Building on the 1991 publication
What Mean These Bones? Studies in Southeastern Bioarchaeology, this
new edited collection from Shannon Chappell Hodge and Kristrina A.
Shuler marks steady advances over the past three decades in the
theory, methodology, and purpose of bioarchaeology in the
southeastern United States and across the discipline. With a
geographic scope that ranges from Louisiana to South Carolina and a
temporal span from early prehistory through the nineteenth century,
the coverage aims to be holistic. Bioarchaeology of the American
Southeast: Approaches to Bridging Health and Identity in the Past
is organized into two main parts. The first, "Context and Culture
History in Bioarchaeology," focuses on the fundamentals of
archaeology-figuring out who lived at an archaeological site, when
they lived there, what they did, and how they lived their lives.
This builds the framework that allows archaeologists to answer
deeper questions, such as the ones addressed in the second part,
"Social Identities in Bioarchaeology." Here contributors explore
questions of identity, ethnicity, gender and the status of women,
social status, class, power and exploitation, migration, and
conflict. These chapters implement and contribute to
anthropological theory and showcase improved methods, such as
innovative statistical analyses, and incorporate newer technology,
including a DNA and geographic information system applications.
