Description: This book discusses archaeological research and representation of Native American lifeways at the Levanna site from 1923-1941 and through the 2007-9 re-excavations and artifact analyses, along with the supporting excavations at the Myers Farm site.

Review Quotes: "Rossen offers an exemplary example of what archaeology has to offer beyond the familiar realms of artifact description and interpretation. His reinvestigation of Levanna offers a fresh telling of its history, transforming it from a dusty archaeological assemblage to an expression of the still-vibrant living tradition of Cayuga descendants. This is an outstanding example of community based research that foregrounds heritage values while maintaining archaeological rigor" --George Nicholas, Professor and Chair, Department of Archaeology, Simon Fraser University
