Description
This book highlights early-career Indigenous scholars conducting research in North America who are advancing the growing paradigm of archaeological study done with, by, and for members of Native-descendant communities.
Expanding on the foundational works of scholars from previous generations, this volume includes examples of Indigenous methodologies and illustrates different approaches for applying theory in various research scenarios. The contributors weave together western scientific research methods and Indigenous knowledge, ontologies, and epistemologies, demonstrating how this combination can lead to fuller interpretations of the archaeological record.
Case studies describe new, culturally specific ways of establishing working relationships with descendant communities and stakeholders.
The volume argues that there are many ways a collaborative method can be implemented and that Indigenous people should be involved not just as consultants but as participants and stewards of their own cultural heritage.
Indigenizing Archaeology demonstrates that this approach is more than a subfield; it is the path forward for the discipline. Contributors: Emily C. Van Alst | Carlton Shield Chief Gover | Ash Boydston-Schmidt | Honey Constant-Inglis | Patrick Cruz | Lydia Curliss | Zoë Antoinette Eddy | Nicholas C.
