One of the richest and most environmentally diverse sites (low uplands, lakes, swamps, the Saline River, the Shawnee Hills) in southern Illinois is lo­cated approximately two miles south of Carrier Mills. This book focuses on the results of a five-year archaeological investigation at three sites located in a 143-acre area known as the Carrier Mills Archaeo­logical District. This area, rich in archaeological treasures and keys to the prehistoric people of southern Illinois, is also coal mining territory. In cooperation with Peabody Coal Company, archaeologists in this study have sought to learn the ages of the various prehistoric occupations represented at the sites; to better un­derstand the technology and social organization of these prehistoric people; to better understand the environment; to collect information about diet, health, and physical characteristics of the prehistoric inhabitants; and to investigate the remains of the 19th-century Lakeview settlement"--Provided by publisher.Indians of North AmericaIllinoisCarrier Mills RegionAntiquitiesAfrican AmericansIllinoisCarrier Mills RegionAntiquitiesCarrier Mills Region (Ill.)AntiquitiesIllinoisAntiquitiesElectronic books.Indians of North AmericaAntiquities.African AmericansAntiquities.977.3/992Jefferies Richard W1040555Gatlin Thomas W1057497Southern Illinois University at Carbondale.Center for Archaeological Investigations.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910453393103321The archaeology of Carrier Mills2492840UNINA
