These Mysterious People, Second Edition - Shaping History and Archaeology in a Northwest Coast Community


 

Archaeologists studying human remains and burial sites of North America's Indigenous peoples have discovered more than information about the beliefs and practices of cultures - they have also found controversy. These Mysterious People shows how Western ideas and attitudes about Indigenous peoples have transformed one culture's ancestors, burial grounds, and possessions into another culture's "e,specimens,"e, "e,archaeological sites,"e, and "e,ethnographic artifacts,"e, in the process disassociating Natives from their own histories.
