Contact seller5-star sellerHardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. The dust jacket has a small triangle clipped off the inside flap (likely where the price was once printed). The jacket has several small nicks / tears along its edges; the jacket also has some wear and some creasing. The spine area of the jacket appears to be slightly fade…d (probably from exposure to the sun while sitting on a shelf). The pages are tanning slightly from age. The front endpaper appears to have once had something printed in the upper right corner in pencil, which was subsequently erased (I think I can make out an "SO" or "50" but I'm just guessing). The pages are free from markings and highlighting. See pictures for more details.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Minor shelf wear, binding tight, pages clean and unmarked. This collection presents, for the first time, a much-needed synthesis of the major research themes and findings that characterize the Woodland Period in the southeastern United States.The Woodland Period (ca. 1200 B.C. to A.D. 1000) has b…een the subject of a great deal of archaeological research over the past 25 years. Researchers have learned that in this approximately 2000-year era the peoples of the Southeast experienced increasing sedentism, population growth, and organizational complexity. At the beginning of the period, people are assumed to have been living in small groups, loosely bound by collective burial rituals. But by the first millennium A.D., some parts of the region had densely packed civic ceremonial centers ruled by hereditary elites. Maize was now the primary food crop. Perhaps most importantly, the ancient animal-focused and hunting-based religion and cosmology were being replaced by solar and warfare iconography, consistent with societies dependent on agriculture, and whose elites were increasingly in competition with one another. This volume synthesizes the research on what happened during this era and how these changes came about while analyzing the period's archaeological record.In gathering the latest research available on the Woodland Period, the editors have included contributions from the full range of specialists working in the field, highlighted major themes, and directed readers to the proper primary sources. Of interest to archaeologists and anthropologists, both professional and amateur, this will be a valuable reference work essential to understanding the Woodland Period in the Southeast.

Fine in the original folding box cover also designed by Paul Johnston which is in…very good condition. Some toning and closed tears to the spines of the box cover. An exceptional example, rare in such fine condition and complete with all twelve poems. 'The Poetry Quartos' was a series of publications that aimed to introduce readers to a wide range of poets and poetic styles by providing accessible editions of their work.
