“Provides a compelling, multiscalar analysis that examines how the processes of community formation and maintenance operated at the neighborhood, site, and regional scales, as well within the broader Mississippian world.” - Journal of Anthropological Research “Presents the results of a well-defined and carefully constructed research project. One major contribution . . . is a methodologically rigorous analysis of ceramics and radiocarbon dates to refine the culture history into two sequential phases. . . A second major contribution is the use of ceramic vessel types and refined analyses of mound construction histories to build interpretations about persistence and variance in feasting and mound-building practices.” - American Antiquity “An important addition to the understanding of Mississippian communities.” - American Archaeology
