Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. THE KARANKAWA INDIANS OF TEXAS: AN ECOLOGICAL STUDY OF CULTURAL TRADITION AND CHANGE (Texas Archaeology and Ethnohistory Series) by Robert A. Ricklis, stated first edition, softcover, illustrated with graphs, charts, maps, 1996. BOOK CONDITION: very good. The text block a…nd illustrations are in fine condition, with no marks, tears, or dog-ears. Not a library book. "Damaged books" is stamped on the bottom edge, but I can find nothing wrong with this copy other than very slight bowing. No bookplate nor signature of previous owner. Tight binding. The wraps are in very good condition, other than that slight bowing. 9 x 6, 222 pages, 14 ounces. XX [From the foreword] The Karankawas are certainly the most maligned and misunderstood Native American peoples who once inhabited Texas. Moreover, much of what has been written about them, especially in newspapers and popular magazines, is either greatly exaggerated or wholly without merit. As an archaeologist who has worked on the central coast of Texas, I am used to hearing descriptions of the Karankawas as "cannibals" and "giants." Most prehistoric burials or cemeteries found on the coast, through construction or looting, are usually attributed to the "Karankawas." And the bones, when viewed in the ground, often appear to the untrained eye to be of large individuals. Furthermore, fertile imaginations and unsupported linguistic studies have suggested that the Karankawas were of Carib derivation, landing on the Texas coast in the sixteenth century. No ethnographic or archaeological data lend credence to this tale. There is evidence that the Karankawas practiced ritual cannibalism, like most native peoples of the New World, and the Karankawas do seem to have been taller than the average precontact Native Americans. (Although, a 1720 account of the Karankawas at present-day Aransas Pass reports some males at six feet, two inches in height, further notes indicate that they were usually five and a half feet tall.) What generated all of the negative views of the Karankawas? William W. Newcomb in his classic volume, The Indians of Texas, writes: Some of the atrocities attributed to these Indians are undoubtedly rationalizations growing out of the inhuman, unfair treatment the Spaniards and Texans accorded them. It is much easier to slaughter men and appropriate their land if you can convince yourself that they are despicable, inferior, barely human creatures. [The recent studies detailed in this book provide a much clearer and more accurate picture of the coastal tribe of Texas].

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Popular lore has long depicted the Karankawa Indians as primitive scavengers (perhaps even cannibals) who eked out a meager subsistence from fishing, hunting, and gathering on the Texas coastal plains. That caricature, according to Robert Ricklis, hides the reality of a people who were well…-adapted to their environment, skillful in using its resources, and successful in maintaining their culture until the arrival of Anglo-American settlers. The Karankawa Indians of Texas is the first modern, well-researched history of the Karankawa from pre-historic times until their extinction in the nineteenth century. Blending archaeological and ethnohistorical data into a lively narrative history, Ricklis reveals the basic lifeway of the Karankawa, a seasonal pattern that took them from large coastal fishing camps in winter to small, dispersed hunting and gathering parties in summer. In a most important finding, he shows how, after initial hostilities, the Karankawa incorporated the Spanish missions into their subsistence pattern during the colonial period and coexisted peacefully with Euroamericans until the arrival of Anglo settlers in the 1820s and 1830s. These findings will be of wide interest to everyone studying the interactions of Native American and European peoples.
