Description: Title: Mississippian Village Textiles at Wickliffe.Author: Penelope Ballard Drooker.Publisher: The University of Alabama Press, Tuscaloosa.Publication Date: 1992Format: softcoverLength: 291 pagesSize: approximately 6" by 9 1/4".Illustrations: 58 figures, including photos, maps, and drawings.Description: “Because textiles rarely are preserved in the archaeological record outside of deserts and permafrost areas, in many regions of the world very little is known about their characteristics, functions, production technology, or socioeconomic importance. While this fact is also true of organic fabrics produced during the Mississippian period in southeastern North America, a wide variety of Mississippian textiles has been preserved in the form of impressions on large pottery vessels. From attribute analysis of 1,574 fabrics impressed on Wickliffe pottery sherds and comparison of the impressions with extant Mississippian textile artifacts, Drooker presents the first comparative analysis of these materials and the most inclusive available summary of information on Mississippian textiles.”Condition: Very good. Tight and sound binding. Clean and crisp. Cover has lightly bumped corners. Previous owner’s name on title page.
