Webb's \u003ci\u003eIndian Knoll\u003c\/i\u003e, students of archaeology again have available a classic work on the life and death of a fascinating culture. For the report does much to enhance out understanding of the Archaic, and its author (1882-1964) stands as a pivotal figure in the development of a disciplined and scientific approach to New World archaeology. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The legacy of Webb's contributions is indeed great. Little had been written about Archaic sites prior to the reports by Webb and his associates on \u003ci\u003eIndian Knoll\u003c\/i\u003e, on other sites of the Indian Knoll Culture along Green River and Cypress Creek in Kentucky, and on numerous prepottery sites in the Tennessee Valley. Webb's publications have remained the principal sources on Archaic shell middens in mid-America, and constitute the largest and most comprehensive corpus of excavation derived data on Archaic sites in all of eastern North America. In addition, Webb deals with a number of special topics - the functional analysis of artifacts and the identification of raw materials sources - which are vitally important as antecedents of contemporary research. Such reports as \u003ci\u003eIndian Knoll\u003c\/i\u003e furnish valuable information on subsistence and settlement patterns; furthermore, they are extremely useful in rethinking the notion of the Archaic as a developmental stage. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Besides supplying significant data, Webb did much to raise the standards of archaeological reporting. In \u003ci\u003eIndian Knoll\u003c\/i\u003e and other reports, he exhibited a marked degree of sophistication and utilized an interdisciplinary approach by incorporating the analyses of other subject specialties. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.73 x 8.64 x 6.4 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 01, 2002\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43423846432835,"sku":"9781572331679","price":51.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/4399\/2899\/files\/hrQ2OGt7CG9781572331679.webp?v=1781715845","url":"https:\/\/store7994.com\/products\/indian-knoll-paperback","provider":"STORE 7994","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
