Between the 16th and 19th centuries as indigenous Native Americans, colonizing Europeans, and Africans came into sustained contact in North America, their cultures underwent a variety of complex transformations. While other scholarly books that examine ""cultural contact"" have traditionally viewed the issue through a single lens, this collection offers a strikingly different picture by collecting a variety of archaeological and ethnohistorical perspectives to formulate an interdisciplinary investigation.
"A strong and diverse volume which offers new perspectives on the early contact period (A.D. 1500-1750) in the Mid-Atlantic.... The strength of the essays is the commitment to integrating the archaeological data with the well-known ethnohistoric and historic sources of the region." - Jeffrey L. Hantman, University of Virginia"
