Moundville's Economy is a thorough synthesis of what is known about
economic activity in the prehistoric Moundville chiefdom—from the
production and movement of craft goods at the center to the traffic
in ordinary comestibles at the peripheries. The book's effort at
model building is outstanding in its clarity.—Vernon James Knight
Jr., The University of Alabama
A remarkably lucid coverage of the Moundville chiefdom, and it is
an extremely useful introduction to the exciting archaeolgocial
research being conducted in this part of Alabama. . . .
Mississippian specialists and archaeologists concerned with complex
societies in other parts of the world will find much of interest in
Welch's book.American Antiquity
