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. …

Zustand: Near fine. First edition. First printing of this groundbreaking history of DC's go-go scene, fondly inscribed by both authors as well as Go-Go legend Chuck Brown. Lornell and Stephenson discuss go-go as a regional, cultural, and musical phenomenon, as well as examine the groundwork laid in the Black dance clubs and DC public school music programs of the early 1960s before the impact of funk and the full emergence of go-go as a recognizable and separate sub-genre. Music historians generally resist crediting the form with a single founder, but all agree that if it had one, it was Chuck Brown: "The time was ripe for experimentation and change, and Chuck Brown was there at the beginning of go-go." 9'' x 6''. Original glossy wrappers. Black and white photographic illustrations. 260 pages. Inscribed on inside front cover by Stephenson ("Keep go-go alive") and Chuck Brown ("Peace & Love), inscribed on title page by Lornell ("Thanks for your help"). Minor edgewear to wrappers. Signed.…
