Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book has been written for students, for amateur archaeologists, and for all other persons with curiosity about the Indians. The story is factual because it is based upon archaeological researches, both our own and those of our colleagues, and upon historical records. As we have gazed back into the faintly illuminated distant past, the people of our story have become almost like old friends to us. Our aim, insofar as it is possible, is to make them your friends too, and in so doing to breathe some life into the dust-covered facts of archaeology."-- Preface.
