Product Description

Understanding the Lives of Ancient Peoples in Southwest Florida Through Archaeology

Archaeology … opens windows to the past.

“Blanchard brings the ancient native peoples of southwest Florida to life and shows how archaeology allows us to understand the past.
New Words, Old Songs is a must reading for everyone interested in Florida.”
– Jerald T. Milanich, author of Archaeology of Precolumbian Florida

New Worlds, Old Songs tells the spellbinding saga of 12,000 years of human life on the shell islands and mangrove coasts of southwest Florida. 

Let yourself be drawn into the bygone world evoked by Charles Blanchard’s compelling prose and Merald Clark’s irresistible drawings…

You will discover a Florida you have never seen before.
