Through case studies from several different regions and intellectual traditions, the contributors to this volume collectively demonstrate remarkable variation in the circumstances and histories of complex hunter-gatherers in maritime environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e﻿\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe volume draws on archaeological research from the North Pacific and Alaska, the Pacific Northwest coast and interior, the California Channel Islands, and the southeastern U.S. and Florida. Contributors trace complex social configurations through monumentality, ceremonialism, territoriality, community organization, and trade and exchange. They show that while factors such as boat travel, patterns of marine and riverine resource availability, and sedentism and village formation are common unifying threads across the continent, these factors manifest in historically contingent ways in different contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e﻿\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFisher-Hunter-Gatherer Complexity in North America\u003c\/em\u003e offers specific, substantive examples of change and transformation in these communities, emphasizing the wide range of complexity among them.
