Great Lakes Archaeology: Current Research and Perspectives
Part of: Society for American Archaeology 80th Annual Meeting, San Francisco, CA (2015)
There is a long history of archaeological research in the Great Lakes region, and much of that research has taken place in the last decade or is ongoing. A number of projects combine traditional and innovative methodologies to offer new insights into the once-obscure worlds of ancient hunter-gatherers' lives. This symposium brings together scholars studying Great Lakes archaeology to present their current and recent research investigating ancient daily practices through the study of a diverse range of topics, including: technological organization and innovation, craft production, subsistence and cuisine, cultural interactions, and human-landscape interactions.
