    "In this volume, nine archaeologists analyze the assumptions that have constrained previous studies of colonialism and demonstrate that colonization was common in early Old and New World state societies - an important strategy by which people gained access to critical resources." "The contributors examine early Old World colonization efforts by Mesopotamia, Phoenicia, Greece, and Rome, the establishment of foreign enclaves by indigenous New World states, such as Teotihuacan, Wari, Tiwanaka, and Inka, and the better-known European colonial expansion. Addressing colonization from the perspectives of the colonies themselves, their homelands, and the indigenous host societies in which they were established, the authors find that implanted settlements that remain distinct from the host societies (colonies) differed significantly from the establishment of rule over an alien people for an extended period of time (colonization). This book provides an essential empirical and theoretical benchmark upon which scholars of colonization and colonialism in other regions and periods can build their own interpretations."--BOOK JACKET.
