Archaeology Below the Cliff by Matthew C Reilly
The first archaeological study of the poor whites of Barbados, the descendants of seventeenth-century European indentured servants and small farmers. Using archaeological, historical, and oral sources, Matthew Reilly shows how the precarious existence of the Barbadian Redlegs challenged elite hypercapitalistic notions of economics, race, and class.
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
