Description

Archaeological data from the Late Archaic (4000-2000 years ago) in the Western Great Lakes are analyzed to understand the production and movement of copper and lithic exchange materials. Also considered in this volume are access to and benefits from exchange networks, as well as social changes accompanying the development of extensive, continental scale, exchange systems of interaction in this period.

Mark Andrew Hill is an Associate Professor of Anthropology at Ball State University. He was formerly J Clayton Stephenson Professor of Anthropology at Yale University, and former Curator and Head of the division of Anthropology in the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History.
