Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Minor shelf wear, binding tight, pages clean and unmarked. This collection presents, for the first time, a much-needed synthesis of the major research themes and findings that characterize the Woodland Period in the southeastern United States.The Woodland Period (ca. 1200 B.C. to A.D. 1000) has been the subject of a great deal of archaeological research over the past 25 years. Researchers have learned that in this approximately 2000-year era the peoples of the Southeast experienced increasing sedentism, population growth, and organizational complexity. At the beginning of the period, people are assumed to have been living in small groups, loosely bound by collective burial rituals. But by the first millennium A.D., some parts of the region had densely packed civic ceremonial centers ruled by hereditary elites. Maize was now the primary food crop. Perhaps most importantly, the ancient animal-focused and hunting-based religion and cosmology were being replaced by solar and warfare iconography, consistent with societies dependent on agriculture, and whose elites were increasingly in competition with one another. This volume synthesizes the research on what happened during this era and how these changes came about while analyzing the period's archaeological record.In gathering the latest research available on the Woodland Period, the editors have included contributions from the full range of specialists working in the field, highlighted major themes, and directed readers to the proper primary sources. Of interest to archaeologists and anthropologists, both professional and amateur, this will be a valuable reference work essential to understanding the Woodland Period in the Southeast. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Lee-Ann F. O'Brien writes from the places most people are afraid to go - and brings you back stronger for having followed her there.'Raising Fire From the award-winning author of Breaking Trail: From Complex Trauma to Command.What if the fire that nearly broke you was never meant to destroy you What if it was always meant to rebuild you In Raising Fire, Lee-Ann F. O'Brien doesn't offer you a polished version of resilience. She offers you the truth of it - raw, hard-earned, and deeply human. Drawing from her lived experience as an Indigenous woman, trauma survivor, mother, and senior police leader, Lee-Ann takes you inside the moments that forged her: the childhood stings, the squad room silences, the grocery store parking lot where she finally broke open - and the long, deliberate journey back to herself.At the heart of this book is a powerful concept: your Head Fire - the inner flame of resilience, clarity, and purpose that, once tended, changes everything. Not the kind of resilience that performs toughness and calls it strength. The kind that allows you to fall apart, feel it all, and rise - not the same as before, but steadier. Wiser. More whole.Through deeply personal stories, neuroscience-backed tools, and reflective practices, Raising Fire will help you: - Calm your nervous system and find your footing again.- Move from overwhelm to clarity - one intentional step at a time.- Build resilience that lasts - not armor that isolates.- Reclaim your identity, your purpose, and your joy.This is not a book about being unbreakable. It's about being honest. It's about laying down the armor - one piece at a time - and learning what it means to live with intention.Because you were never meant to just survive. You were meant to rise, rebuild, and burn with purpose.…
