Bücher der Reihe Florida Museum of Natural History: Ripley P. Bullen Series

Presents current archaeological research on an important landscape feature: a series of low, cascading rapids along the Ohio River on the border of Kentucky and Indiana. Using the perspective of historical ecology, contributors demonstrate how humans and the environment mutually affected each other in the area for the past 12,000 years.

Presents a temporally and geographically broad yet detailed history of an important form of Native American architecture, the platform mound. While the variation in these earthen monuments across the Eastern United States has sparked much debate among archaeologists, this landmark study reveals unexpected continuities over thousands of years.
