First published in 1873, this work proposed a link between the Native Americans of the 1800s and the prehistoric peoples who had created the Southeast's large earthen mounds. For this reissue a new introduction places Jones's work in the context of its time, and relates it to current research.
This work, first published in 1873, is a classic of southeastern archaeology, linking historic tribes with prehistoric antiquities. Jones was a pioneer of archaeology who not only excavated important sites but also related his findings to other sites, to contemporary Indians, and to artifacts from other areas. His work covers all of the southeastern states, from Virginia to Louisiana, and is noted for its insights into the DeSoto expedition and the history of the Creek Indians. Jones is best know for refuting the myth of the Mound Builders. A new introduction places Jones' work in the context of his times and relates it to current research in the southeast.
