Produktbeschreibung
Fort Ross State Historic Park is one of the oldest and most unique of California's state parks. Since 1988, archaeologists from the University of California, Berkeley, under the direction of Professor Kent Lightfoot, have conducted ongoing investigations of Fort Ross. Their work has revealed important details concerning life at the Russian settlement. In the past, interpretation at Fort Ross focused on the ethnic Russians who were perceived to have dominated the settlement. We now know that the Russians played a much smaller role in the settlement's daily affairs, and that the Native Alaskans (and the Native Californians) carried out the brunt of the work. This second volume in the series The Archaeology and Ethnohistory of Fort Ross, California, is a fitting commemoration of the people of Fort Ross. By examining the Native Alaskan Village, this volume helps to illuminate the population of the settlement that was relegated to the edges of history and public interpretation for many years. The volume includes 448 pages of text, 201 figures, 74 tables, and 29 appendices.
