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. …

Hardcover. Zustand: Fair. See photos for condition details hardcover, black cloth boards with gilt text on spine. Interior shows spotting and soiling along with tearing around the corner edges of the upper and lower hinge areas. Interior binding has some issues at the boards: front hinge is cracked as is the rear hinge, though not as severe. There was also no rear end page - it is unknown if the book was printed this way but the possible missing free end page is the reason for the lower condition grading of fair. Remaining binding of the text pages is good and there are two different books with title pages bound in this edition: the first title page of "Tafsir Ahd-I-Atiq" contains 392 pages., the second is "Ahd I Atio Aur Us Ki Tafsir, Yaramiyah aur Nauhe aur Un Ki Tafsir by Padri T. J. Scott Sahib (1893) 241 pages (633 pages total). The main title page, as shown in the photos, contains a handwritten English translation of the printed text along with "To Rev. B. C(?). Warren, H. Mansell". The front end page has remnants of a something that was penciled in the upper right corner and then erased. There is also a small crease at this area. No other handwriting found in the book, no bookplates, no library markings. Paper is toned due to age and there is some light scattered foxing and spotting present though the end pages and pastedowns show heavy are tanning. This is an extremely rare and unknown publication. Rev. Henry Mansell was a veteran missionary of the Methodist Episcopal Church in India. He was born in Ohio in 1834 and went to India in 1863 and returned to America in 1910. Reverend Mansell died on November 8, 1911 in Bristol, Connecticut.…
