Summary "It is my sincere hope that this volume will be much read and reflected upon by new generations of American students of prehistoric archaeologists. Freeman's career is a model for long-term international collaboration, theoretical eclecticism, the centrality of field research, and the ability to 'dream big, ' but with a commonsense approach to the record and its limitations." Lawrence Guy Straus, Journal of Anthropological Research
