Synopsis
This well-respected volume provides readers with a broad overview of the diverse peoples known as Native Americans plus insights into the daily life of individual tribes. Part I, Prehistory, reflects the many new discoveries in dating that have occurred recently. Part II employs the construct of culture areas to facilitate an understanding of the relationship between culture and adaptation and also to aid in sorting out the diversity of American Indian cultures. Part III covers various culture traits, including technology, art, religion, and political systems. Part IV explores the interactions between Native Americans and non-natives and includes discussions of current issues and controversies as well as additional information on Canadian Indians. Native American Heritage, Third Edition, features a useful format, many photographs and illustrations, and up-to-date maps and charts.
