"Offers a solid model for recordation, analysis, and interpretation
of an important category of artifact. Focusing on the prehistoric
rock art of Missouri, this survey is comprehensive, and sets a high
standard for both the identification of styles and for the
interpretation of specific motifs and combinations of motifs . . .
the study of rock art has come of age in the 21st century. This
book is certainly a significant factor (and milestone) in that
development." --Southeastern Archaeology
"What commends this study is its systematic approach to the
recording, presentation, and interpretations of rock graphics of
all kinds in a state that straddles the Prairie-Plains and the
Mississippi River bottoms. Particularly appealing to archaeologists
is the relationship it shows between Mississippian cultural
connections with Cahokia." --James A. Brown, Northwestern
University
