Description

"This book examines the long and complex history of human occupation in North America, covering its distinct culture areas of California, Arctic, Eastern Woodlands, Great Basin, Great Plains, Northwest Coast, Plateau, Southwest, and Subarctic. Complete with maps, a chronology from 11,000 B.C. to A.D. 1850, an introductory essay, more than 700 dictionary entries, and a comprehensive bibliography, this reference is a valuable tool for scholars and students. An appendix of museums that house North American collections and a listing of archaeological sites that allow tours by the public also makes this an accessible guide to the interested reader and high school student."--Jacket.
