Updated and even more engaging, the fourth edition of Archaeology of the Greater Southwest is a comprehensive and readable summary of the current knowledge of the ancient US Southwest and northwest Mexico.The book now has a greater coverage of the entire region, including northern Mexico, and focuses more clearly on the human story of the past. Based soundly on scholarly results and collaborations with Indigenous communities, the human experiences of the peoples of the Greater Southwest are vividly presented in a way that makes them real. This new edition also highlights some of the new techniques used to scientifically explore these unique lifeways in a way that is clear and concise. The book also provides a more inclusive view of the people involved in excavating and caring for the remains of these lifeways. Evidence from newly excavated sites and reanalysis of previously excavated sites is used throughout the book to provide an up-to-date synthesis that highlights how it has transformed our knowledge of this region.Archaeology of the Greater Southwest is the ideal textbook for students studying the region and a useful reference guide for professional archaeologists.
