(More customer reviews)Modeling Archaeological Site Burial In Southern Michigan: A Geoarchaeological Synthesis is the collaborative work of G. William Monaghan (Associate Research Scientist, Glenn A. Black Laboratory for Archaeology, Indiana University) and William A. Lovis (Professor in the Department of Anthropology and Associate Director for Natural and Social Science Research and Curator of Anthropology, MSU Museum, Michigan State University) with contributions by Michael J. Hambacher in the chapter "Location and Description of Buried and Stratified Sites in Michigan: Geological and Cultural Controls for Site Burial and Stratification". This scholarly presentation of deep site geoarchaeology in Michigan provides an overarching survey of 13,000 years of Great Lakes geology and the impact of lake-level and climatic change on the archaeological record of human occupation with special attention to burial sites. This superbly presented work is organized into two main parts: "Geological and Archaeological Background" and "Site Burial Conceptual Models, GIS Predictive Framework, and Deep-Test Methods and Standards". Enhanced with maps, charts, references, and an exhaustive index, Modeling Archaeological Site Burial in Southern Michigan will prove to be of particular interest to students of upper midwest American archaeology, Native American studies, geology, and Great Lakes studies.
