520 8  Those unfamiliar with the prehistory of North America have
       a general perception of the cultures of the continent that
       includes Native Americans living in tipis, wearing 
       feathered headdresses and buckskin clothing, and following
       migratory bison herds on the Great Plains. Although these 
       practices were part of some Native American societies, 
       they do not adequately represent the diversity of cultural
       practices by the overwhelming majority of Native American 
       peoples. Media misrepresentations shaped by television and
       movies along with a focus on select regions and periods in
       the history of the United States have produced an 
       extremely distorted view of the indigenous inhabitants of 
       the continent and their cultures. The indigenous 
       populations of North America created impressive societies,
       engaged in trade, and had varied economic, social, and 
       religious cultures. Over the past century, archaeological 
       and ethnological research throughout all regions of North 
       America has revealed much about the indigenous peoples of 
       the continent. This book examines the long and complex 
       history of human occupation in North America, covering its
       distinct culture as well as areas of the Arctic, 
       California, Eastern Woodlands, Great Basin, Great Plains, 
       Northwest Coast, Plateau, Southwest, and Subarctic. 
       Complete with maps, a chronology that spans the history 
       from 11,000 B.C. to A.D. 1850, an introductory essay, more
       than 700 dictionary entries, and a comprehensive 
       bibliography, this reference is a valuable tool for 
       scholars and students. An appendix of museums that have 
       North American collections and a listing of archaeological
       sites that allow tours by the public also make this an 
       accessible guide to the interested lay reader and high 
       school student.
