Description

Book Synopsis
Kathleen Ehrhardt's research addresses the early technological responses of the Late Protohistoric Illinois Indians, to European-introduced metal objects. In revealing actual Native practice, from material selection and procurement to ultimate discard, the author challenges technocentric explanations for Native material and cultural change.

Trade Review
This is an impressive work, a benchmark study that has important implications for the way archaeologists look at the interaction between Natives and Europeans. - Marvin T. Smith, coauthor of Coosa: The Rise and Fall of a Southeastern Mississippian Chiefdom
