"This beautifully produced three-volume boxed set on the Indigenous Americans of Pennsylvania is a milestone in North American regional archaeology...The work is encyclopedic, foundational in nature, and characterized by internal consistencies that are the mark of close collaboration and good editing. This will be a standard reference for regional professionals, advanced students, and serious lay readers for years to come." (American Antiquity) "[A]nyone who has any interest in the archaeological study of the Native Americans of Pennsylvania needs to own these books....[I[t is [not] possible to conduct archaeological research in Pennsylvania, write about it, or even seriously think about Pennsylvania archaeology without reference to this multi-volume work." (Pennsylvania Archaeologist) "[A]n ambitious and ultimately successful endeavor to present the current state of knowledge of the Indigenous archaeological record of the state...This work does an excellent job of documenting our knowledge in 2020. The Archaeology of Native Americans in Pennsylvania will long serve as the standard reference for those working in the keystone state and adjacent areas." (Journal of Middle Atlantic Archaeology)
