About this title

Synopsis

Historical archaeology has largely focused on the study of early military sites and homes of upper class. Research on lower classes was viewed as a supplement to local histories documenting political, military and financial leaders of the 18th and 19th centuries.

An Archaeological Study of Rural Capitalism and Material Life will be of interest to historical archaeologists, cultural anthropologists, social historians, and historical sociologists, especially researchers studying the influence of globalization and economic development upon rural regions like Appalachia.

About the Author

Mark D. Groover is assistant professor of anthropology at Ball State University. He has written several journal articles and excavation monographs about the historical archaeology of farmsteads and plantations.
