Early and Middle Woodland Landscapes of the Southeast cover

Fourteen in-depth case studies incorporate empirical data with theoretical concepts such as ritual, aggregation, and place-making, highlighting the variability and common themes in the relationships between people, landscapes, and the built environment that characterize this period of North American native life in the Southeast.

Provides a broad, multi-scalar view of Adena/Hopewell and human interaction over a variety of landscapes in the Southeast. . . . [A] much-needed new perspective."—Journal of Anthropological Research "The articles use both U.S. and British views of landscape: the former focuses on rigorously empirical investigations of human-environment interaction, while the latter asks what are the myriad ways past people shaped, cognized, and dwelled in their worlds. . . . Recommended."—Choice "Illustrate[s] how landscape perspectives are leading to new insights into the past lifeways that created newly discovered and several quite well known archaeological sites across the southeastern United States."—Florida Historical Quarterly
