Charles E.Orser, Jr., demonstrates the need to examine the impact ofcolonialism, Eurocentrism, capitalism, and modernity on allarchaeological sites inhabited after 1492 and shows how theselarge-scale forces create a link among all the sites. Orserinvestigates the connections between a seventeenth-century runawayslave kingdom in Palmares, Brazil and an early nineteenth-centurypeasant village in central Ireland. Studying artifacts, landscapes,and social inequalities in these two vastly different cultures, theauthor explores how the archaeology of fugitive Brazilian slaves andpoor Irish farmers illustrates his theoretical concepts. His researchunderscores how network theory is largely unknown in historicalarchaeology and how few historical archaeologists apply a globalperspective in their studies. .A Historical Archaeology of theModern. .World. features data and illustrations from twopreviously unknown sites and includes such intriguing findings as theprovenance of ancient Brazilian smoking pipes that will be new tohistorical archaeologists. | Pindex | Textbook 1996 |
