Paperback. Condition: New. On the Northwest Coast in antiquity, an estimated 85 percent of objects were made entirely from materials that normally do not survive the ravages of time. Fortunately, the region's wetlands, silt-laden rivers, high groundwater levels, and abundant rainfall provide ideal conditions for long-term preservation of waterlogged wood. Few archaeologists intentionally search for them, yet every Northwest Coast archaeologist may encounter waterlogged cultural remains--even inland, away from the coast. Those who investigate can uncover artifacts, structures, and environmental remains missing from the usual reconstructions of past lifeways.Currently, wet-site archaeology is not widely taught at North American universities. Waterlogged helps bridge that gap. Sixteen archaeologists who work on the Northwest Coast discuss their research in regional and global perspectives, share highlights of their findings, provide guidance on how to locate wet sites, and outline procedures for recovering and caring for perishable waterlogged artifacts. The volume offers practical information about logistics, equipment, and supplies, including a wet-site field kit list.Waterlogged presents previously unpublished original research spanning the past ten thousand years of human presence on the Northwest Coast. Examples include the first fish trap features in the region to be identified as longshore weirs, a complete 750-year-old basket cradle from the lower Fraser Valley, wooden self-armed fishhooks from the Salish Sea, and a paleoethnobotanical study at the 10,500-year-old Kilgii Gwaay wet site on Haida Gwaii. Contributors also discuss insider-vs.-outsider perceptions of wetlands in Cowichan traditional territory on Vancouver Island, a habitation site in a disappearing wetland in the Fraser Valley, a collaborative project on the Babine River in the Fraser Plateau, and Early and Middle Holocene waterlogged materials from British Columbia's central coast.…

First Shooting Draft script for the 1995 film. A contemporary parody of the popular 1969-1974 ABC family sitcom created by Sherward Schwartz. Notably, Sherwood Schwartz and sitcom producer Lloyd J. Schwartz both received screenwriting credits on the script found here, though Sherwood Schwartz received only character credits in the released film. The kitchy sitcom family, with their sitcom family morality and distinctly 1970s fashions, are incongruously placed in 1990s Los Angeles. Starring Shelley Long, Gary Cole, and Michael McKean, and featuring cameos from much of the original television cast as well as RuPaul, and The Monkees' Davy Jones, Micky Dolenz, and Peter Tork. Followed by the sequels, "A Very Brady Sequel," released in 1996, directed by Arlene Sanford, and the television movie "The Brady Bunch in the White House," released on Fox in 2002, and directed by Neal Israel. Set in and shot on location in California. Blue untitled wrappers. Title page present, dated June 15, 1994, noted as FIRST SHOOTING DRAFT, with credits for screenwriters James Berg and Stan Zimmerman, Bonny and Terry Turner, Laurice Elehwany and Rick Copp, and Sherwood Schwartz and Lloyd J. Schwartz. 107 leaves, with last page of text numbered 106. Xerographic duplication, rectos only. Pages Near Fine, wrapper Very Good plus, bound with two gold brads.…
