Condizione: As New. Unread book in perfect condition.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Return to Elkins Creek combines a series of fishing stories, descriptions of changing cultural norms, and the peculiar history of freshwater fishing gear. Beginning with subsistence fishing in very rural Mississippi at a time "when the poorest among us in the Deep South still took our water from holes in the ground and high school was considered an optional step along the career path," the stories continue chronologically, with descriptions of learning to fish with rod-and-reel combos and artificial lures; coming-of-age angling misadventures with dubious backwoods characters; swapping fish for toilet paper during the Pandemic; a cheerfully inept expedition to a Florida bay where things were enlivened by a hurricane; and a return to where it all began, alongside a small creek in the hills of the Choctaw County backwoods, cane pole and bait jar in hand. Part memoir, part cultural history, and part historical vignette, Return to Elkins Creek is held together by the common thread of fishing as a touchstone in changing times. One need not be a fishing enthusiast to appreciate the stories or descriptions of the many colorful characters therein, including the clever and eccentric inventors of modern fishing gear.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Minor shelf wear, binding tight, pages clean and unmarked. This collection presents, for the first time, a much-needed synthesis of the major research themes and findings that characterize the Woodland Period in the southeastern United States.The Woodland Period (ca. 1200 B.C. to A.D. 1000) has been the subject of a great deal of archaeological research over the past 25 years. Researchers have learned that in this approximately 2000-year era the peoples of the Southeast experienced increasing sedentism, population growth, and organizational complexity. At the beginning of the period, people are assumed to have been living in small groups, loosely bound by collective burial rituals. But by the first millennium A.D., some parts of the region had densely packed civic ceremonial centers ruled by hereditary elites. Maize was now the primary food crop. Perhaps most importantly, the ancient animal-focused and hunting-based religion and cosmology were being replaced by solar and warfare iconography, consistent with societies dependent on agriculture, and whose elites were increasingly in competition with one another. This volume synthesizes the research on what happened during this era and how these changes came about while analyzing the period's archaeological record.In gathering the latest research available on the Woodland Period, the editors have included contributions from the full range of specialists working in the field, highlighted major themes, and directed readers to the proper primary sources. Of interest to archaeologists and anthropologists, both professional and amateur, this will be a valuable reference work essential to understanding the Woodland Period in the Southeast.…
