About This Book

"Focusing on four major issues in prehistoric warfare studies - settlement patterns, skeletal trauma, weaponry, and iconography - David H. Dye presents a new interpretation of ancient war and peace east of the Mississippi. He considers evidence for raiding and more organized forms of warfare, accounts of native warfare witnessed by sixteenth-century Europeans, and the various causes of warfare, such as revenge, competition for resources, and ideology. War Paths, Peace Paths offers an innovative analysis of cooperation and conflict in the prehistoric eastern United States."--BOOK JACKET.
