Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Despite over a century of archaeological research, including at many residential sites throughout most of Utah, the City Creek Site is the first Fremont village site to be explored in the Salt Lake Valley. This important and unique site provides foundational data that is used for a critical reexamination of previous interpretations about the long-misunderstood Great Salt Lake area Fremont. Using architecture, ceramics and other artifacts, stable carbon isotope, osteological, geoarchaeological, and climatological data, among others, it provides key insights into northern Fremont lifeways. Importantly, it helps to contextualize Great Salt Lake Fremont as a horticultural population, in contrast to contemporaneous non-Fremont foragers in the same region.
