Download pdf | Full Screen View

Date Issued:
1974
Summary:
A chronology for the region surrounding Biscayne Bay in Southeast Florida is presented using all suitably reported ceramic material and the quantitative seriation method. The intention is to go beyond the present chronology of distinct ceramic periods to one that more clearly presents the development of the prehistoric ceramic continuum of the region. Exploration is made of the possibility of establishing ceramic areas as bases for future work toward the development of culture areas in Southern Florida prehistory. To this end, comparative seriation material from the Everglades and Gold Coast regions is discussed.
