"This is the first book on Indigenous archaeology that has more Indigenous than non-Indigenous authors. With case studies from North America to Australia, and covering topics from archaeological ethics to the repatriation of human remains, this book documents the development of a new form of archaeology, one that is informed by Indigenous values and agendas. This Indigenous archaeology moves beyond research about Indigenous peoples to focus on research that is conducted with, and for, Indigenous peoples. This involves fundamental changes in archaeological theory and practice, as well as substantive changes in the power relations between archaeologists and Indigenous peoples."--BOOK JACKET.
