Summary: | Drawing on his own extensive surveys and excavations, and on a wide array of research that has been conducted in the central Mississippi Valley during the past several decades, Milner argues that, while clearly impressive for its time, Cahokia-area society differed little in its basic organization from the smaller, less complex chiefdoms that dotted the southern Eastern Woodlands. |
