Reconstructing Tascalusa's Chiefdom

Pottery Styles and the Social Composition of Late Mississippian Communities Along the Alabama River

Beschreibung

Presents an archaeological study of political collapse in the Alabama River Valley following the Hernado de Soto expedition. To explain the cultural and political disruptions caused by Hernado de Soto's exploration deep into north America, Amanda L. Regnier presents an analysis of ceramics and a novel theory of cultural exchange, which argues that culture consists of a series of interconnected models governing proper behaviour that are shared across belief systems.
