"Poverty Point is one of North America's greatest sites, and Gibson has done it justice. -American Archaeology Poverty Point, known for its large, elaborate earthworks a series of concentric, crescent-shaped dirt rings and bird-shaped mounds- is one of the largest archaic constructions on American soil. It is also one of the most puzzling. Perplexing questions haunt Poverty Point, and archaeologists still speculate about life and culture at the site, its age, how it was created, and if it was at the forefront of an emerging complex society. Jon Gibson, the eminent authority on the site, examines the period's architecture, construction, tools and appliances, economy, exchange, and ceremonies. His engaging, well-illustrated account brings to life one of the oldest earthworks of its size in the Western Hemisphere, the hub of a massive exchange network among native American peoples reaching a third of the way across the present-day United States. Jon L. Gibson is a retired professor of anthropology, University of Louisiana, Lafayette. He is the author of Ancient Earthworks of the Ouachita Valley in Louisiana and the editor of Exchange in the Lower Mississippi Valley and Contiguous Areas at 1100 B.C.
