Showcasing case studies from Africa, Australia, Mesoamerica, and North and South America, this edited volume highlights the work of archaeologists who study indigenous peoples and histories at multiple scales. The contributors explore how the inclusion of indigenous histories, and collaboration with contemporary communities and scholars across the subfields of anthropology, can reframe archaeologies of colonialism. The cross-cultural case studies employ a broad range of methodological strategies--archaeology, ethnohistory, archival research, oral histories, and descendant perspectives--to better appreciate processes of colonialism. The authors argue that these more complicated histories of colonialism contribute not only to understandings of past contexts but also to contemporary social justice projects. In each chapter, authors move beyond an academic artifice of "prehistoric" and "colonial" and instead focus on longer sequences of indigenous histories to better understand colonial contexts. Throughout, each author explores and clarifies the complexities of indigenous daily practices that shape, and are shaped by, long-term indigenous and local histories by employing an array of theoretical tools, including theories of practice, agency, materiality, and temporality. Included are larger integrative chapters by Kent Lightfoot and Patricia Rubertone, foremost North American colonialism scholars who argue that an expanded global perspective is essential to understanding processes of indigenous-colonial interactions and transitions.Archaeology of Colonialism in Native North AmericaIndians of North AmericaAntiquitiesIndians of North AmericaFirst contact with other peoplesIndians of North AmericaColonizationExcavations (Archaeology)United StatesSocial archaeologyUnited StatesEthnoarchaeologyUnited StatesUnited StatesAntiquitiesIndians of North AmericaAntiquities.Indians of North AmericaFirst contact with other peoples.Indians of North AmericaColonization.Excavations (Archaeology)Social archaeologyEthnoarchaeology970.004/97Oland Maxine1978-1820398Hart Siobhan M.1977-1820399Frink Liam1962-1820400MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910975328403321Decolonizing Indigenous histories4382460UNINA
