The contributors offer cohesive and synthetic studies emphasizing hunter-gatherers and subsistence farmers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUsing landscape as both reality and metaphor, \u003ci\u003eArchaeological Landscapes on the High Plains\u003c\/i\u003e explores the different and changing ways that people interacted with place in this transitional zone between the Rocky Mountains and the eastern prairies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe contemporary archaeologists working in this small area have chosen diverse approaches to understand the past and its relationship to the present. Through these ten case studies, this variety is highlighted but leads to a common theme - that the High Plains contains important locales to which people, over generations or millennia, return. Providing both data and theory on a region that has not previously received much attention from archaeologists, especially compared with other regions in North America, this volume is a welcome addition to the literature. \u003cb\u003eContributors\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003cbr\u003eo Paul Burnett\u003cbr\u003eo Oskar Burger\u003cbr\u003eo Minette C.
