The Colonial Landscape of the British Caribbean

This volume brings together new research on the archaeology of the colonial landscapes of the Caribbean. The focus is on the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries and on the British Caribbean: Bermuda, Jamaica, Florida, Barbados, Antigua, and especially St. Kitts and Nevis. Chapters cover a wide range of landscapes - domestic, military and industrial - and interests, including the archaeology and architecture of African-Caribbean slavery and emancipation, European settlements, sugar production, burial grounds, cartography, fortifications and trade. ROGER LEECH is Visiting Professor in the Department of Archaeology at the University of Southampton and former Head of Archaeology for the Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England. PAMELA LEECH is a former archaeologist with English Heritage.
