Heather McKillop is the William G. Haag Professor of Archaeology at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge. Much of her career has been devoted to study of the coastal areas and islands off Belize, focusing on an aspect of the Maya archaeological record not widely known. Her Ph.D. is from the University of California-Santa Barbara.
"Dr. McKillop is an accomplished writer . . . [this] will be a welcome addition to the literature available for potential volunteers on archaeological projects. McKillop's work didn't involve the high excitement of Heyerdahl's voyages, but does involve the romance of fieldwork in a remote and occasionally dangerous locale. Very few readers will attempt to follow in Heyerdahl's steps, but this volume may inspire many to follow in McKillop's."--Thomas H. Guderjan, Texas Christian University
