"The Land of Prehistory" reveals the powerful ideological function American archaeology has naively served, from the discipline's construction in Victorian societal reform movements to the present. Alice Beck Kehoe chronicles major movements and influences such as the support of racist Spencerian evolutionism and Manifest Destiny ideologies, and the 1960s New Archaeology pandering to Big Science money. She concludes with a discussion of the recent revolutionary shift to multicultural voices within the field.

Introduction Chapter 1: The Construction of the Science of Archaeology
Daniel Wilson models a science of prehistory on geology and the
pre-Darwinian evolution of his mentor Robert Chambers of Edinburgh. Chapter
2: Science Boldly Predicts Behind Wilson's science of prehistory were the
Scottish reformers George Combe and Robert Chambers; opposed to the Scots
was the London scientific Establishment led by Sir John Lubbock.
Nineteenth-century mainstream science boldy predicts. Chapter 3:
Consolidating Prehistory Comparing Wilson's Prehistoric Man with Lubbock's
rival volume, it is Lubbock's more purely ideological, racist statements
that, coupled with his influential social position, won his Pre-historic
Times its place in the Whig histories of archaeology. Chapter 4: America's
History A detailed examination of Wilson's presentation of American
prehistory, in which he recognizes the civilizations of American Indian
nations. Chapter 5: Positivists of the New Frontier Professional American
archaeology took off at the time when Turner announced that the physical
frontier was at last closed, challenging Americans to go to new internal
frontiers of research and economic development. American archaeology used
positivist science to investigate the trans-frontier Land of Prehistory.
Chapter 6: Petrified Puddle Ducks Walter Taylor's 1948 monograph acidly
criticized contemporary American archaeology. Chapter 7: The New
Archaeology Ten years after Taylor, Lewis Binford launched an attack on
American archaeology. Carefully planned strategies and rhetoric blatantly
dressing up proposals as Big Science gained National Science Foundation
funding and made older archaeologists look naive. Chapter 8: The Philosophy
of the New Archaeology An analysis of the much-touted philosophy of science
of the New Archaeology. Chapter 9: Cahokia: Hidden in Plain Sight
Mainstream American archaeologists' treatment of Cahokia, the awesome
capital of an eleventh-century Midwestern state, reveals how powerfully
Manifest Destiny ideology still affects American archaeology. Chapter 10:
Burrowing Through the Chiefdom Lewis Henry Morgan's origin myth for
American industrial capitalism is carried on through White, Service, and
their students such as Timothy Earle. Chapter 11: The Taboo Topic
Mainstream American archaeology absolutely refuses to discuss prehistoric
contacts across salt water, even across the Gulf of Mexico. This legacy
from Wilson's interpretation of American prehistory has been reinforced by
Manifest Destiny ideology. Chapter 12: Land of Prehistory Postmodernists,
sociologists of science, and many members of America's First Nations show
little confidence in archaeologists' capacity to study the past. This final
chapter outlines an approach to archaeological data that recognizes the
social construction of knowledge without discounting empiricism or
denigrating First Nations' own historical universes.
