"Author Ted Ehmann in this new work continues his rethinking of the one hundred and twenty-year-old narrative about the mound-builders Indians in North America. Revisiting the archaeological excavation of a large burial mound on Lemon Bay in what is today Englewood, Florida in, 1938, Ehmann solves the mystery surrounding its construction while simultaneously dismantling the view that such enterprises are proof of a local society becoming more “socially complex.” Ehmann has researched the mound-builders for the past thirty years. His new research reveals the truly cooperative nature of these strictly hunter-gathering civilizations while exposing the racism then and now that has influenced the science. Particularly the application of “environmental archaeology’, a purely Euro-centric view forced upon the highly adaptive and cooperative societies in Florida. In this sequel to his first study on South Florida’s Calusa, The People of the Great Circle, Florida plays a significant and very early role in a continent-wide revival of beliefs and rituals that go back to the stone age, not the opposite, which has been believed till now. It took Congress until 1990, after decades of grave looting conducted under the guise of scientific research, to pass the Native American Graves Protection and Reparation Act. While expressing the importance of burials for gathering reliable ethnological data the author demonstrates that all the data can provide answers by revisiting each and respecting the beliefs and practices that are inseparable from the site and those buried there. Ehmann credits and dedicates his work to the theories of the Ohio Hopewell Mounds researcher A. Martin Byers. Byers’ study entitled The Real Mound Builders and his discovery of “Collective Burial Locales, when applied to Florida, completely alters the previous narrative of who, what, when, where, and why. This made-up narrative essentially stole the thunder of the Calusa and others in South Florida. Ehmann’s new view restores the Calusa and their neighbors to their rightful place in world history."-Amazon
