A comprehensive analysis of eighty-eight archaeological sites in and around the City of Kingston, New York.

The Archaeology of Kingston, New York covers Kingston (and New York State and the Hudson Valley to a lesser extent) from Paleo-Indian times circa twelve thousand years ago through twelve thousand years of Native American occupations. The book covers the archaeology of the Dutch colonial period and the British colonial period, as well as a number of sites around the city from the nineteenth century. The book brings together new information on eighty-two archaeological sites and six related sites that are slightly outside of the corporate boundary of the city of Kingston. These include precontact and Native American sites, such as Sailor's Cove and Cantine's Island; the founding of Wiltwyck in the early colonial period; key sites in the Stockade District; the Matthew Persen House; maritime archaeological sites; key cemeteries; and noteworthy sites related to African Americans in the region. Along with the archaeological discussion, the book includes information about local lithic geology, glacial geology, and flora and fauna that were important dietary components of precontact Native Americans. The Archaeology of Kingston, New York offers a complete introduction to the region for anyone interested in New York history and its study and recovery.
