Archaeology below the Cliff is a very holistic and strong anthropological approach to Caribbean history and archaeologyThe book exemplifies the very best in anthropological methodologies and theoretical approaches."" - Georgia L. Fox, author of The Archaeology of Smoking and Tobacco

""Archaeology below the Cliff is theoretically sophisticated and breaks new ground by exploring the lives of people who have been ignored in traditional Caribbean history and archaeology. It is a provocative historical anthropological study that blurs disciplinary boundaries of archaeology, history, and anthropology."" - Frederick H. Smith, author of The Archaeology of Alcohol and Drinking
Matthew C. Reilly is an assistant professor of anthropology at the City College of New York.
