Informationen zum Autor By Donald H. Holly Jr. Klappentext History in the Making: The Archaeology of the Eastern Subarctic offers both a critical history and historiography of the Eastern Subarctic from the point of view of the archaeologists and anthropologists who studied it. Don Holly has stepped into this intellectual lacuna and done a masterful job in distilling and interpreting historical observations and archaeological excavations to reveal the culture and history of the Innu, Beothuk, Inuit, and their predecessors. History in the Making: The Archaeology of the Eastern Subarctic winds between the poignancy of historical records and archaeological assemblages to provide a stunning synthesis of the archaeology, history and ethnography of the Native peoples of the Far Northeast, that is Newfoundland and adjacent Labrador. This is a masterful regional synthesis and long overdue. -- Stephen Loring, Smithsonian Institution, National Museum of Natural History Zusammenfassung History in the Making: The Archaeology of the Eastern Subarctic offers both a critical history and historiography of the Eastern Subarctic from the point of view of the archaeologists and anthropologists who studied it.
