" Transforming the Dead encourages its readers to think in a broader perspective--outside of western normative dualities like life and death, the physical world, and the spiritual world ." --Debra L.

Synopsis
Transforming the Dead is a collection of essays that examines culturally modified human bones and their roles as "cultural and ritual objects" among prehistoric Eastern Woodland cultures. Previous scholarship has explored the role of human body parts in Native American cultures as trophies of war and revered ancestors. This collection discusses new evidence that human elements were also important components of daily and ritual activities across the Eastern Woodlands. The contributors to this volume discuss each case study within the unique regional and temporal contexts of the material, rather than seeking universal answers to how these objects were used. Most research addressing modified human bone has focused on cut marks and trauma associated with warfare, trophy taking, and burial practices. The editors and contributors of Transforming the Dead document the varied and often overlooked ways that human bone was intentionally modified through drilling, incising, cutting, and polishing for utilitarian, ornamental, spiritual, or ritual use. Examples include bracelets and gorgets to be worn, as well as musical rasps, pipe stems, masks, and protective talismans. The form and function of these objects are not unusual; their construction from the remains of "another" sets them apart. Through a flexible but systematic analysis of the archaeological record, the contributors bring into focus how the careful selection, modification, and retention of particular bones or body parts of an individual after death offer insights into concepts of personhood, the body, life, and death among the prehistoric Native Americans in the Midwest., The essays in Transforming the Dead: Culturally Modified Bone in the Prehistoric Midwest explore the numerous ways that Eastern Woodland Native Americans selected, modified, and used human bones as tools, trophies, ornaments, and other objects imbued with cultural significance in daily life and rituals.

I ordered two books from this seller on June 5. I did not receive the books until June 20. They did not send the books I ordered for $50 but instead sent some cheap used book on embroidering. I immediately contacted seller and sent a picture of what book they sent me and asked that they make my order right or return my money. They responded they need the order number and pertinent information even though I am responding to them on the order I placed with them. I have gotten no response!

The item I ordered came early. However, it wasn’t shipped in very sturdy packaging, and arrived with a few very minor dents and scratches.. I bought a book, and the cover was actually different than advertised. I’m not thrilled with the experience, but it most definitely could have been worse. That’s why I’m leaving a neutral review..
