A wonderful contribution to Caribbean historical archaeology.HNet ReviewsUses pottery fragments and other data to examine an informal, underground economy that existed among slaves, islandwide.Chronicle ReviewThis is a convincing study, and the findings serve as a strong basis for the consideration of the role of the Sunday markets in African Jamaican life of the eighteenth century. . . . Hauser is a master in his field, and he writes extremely well.Journal of Caribbean ArchaeologyEloquently weaves together historical, ethnographic, and archaeological evidence to illustrate the complexities of the internal markets, which suggest that the enslaved may have been able to use the social and economic networks they created in order to gain some relief or protection from the power of the colonial regime.Winterthur PortfolioIn the best historical archaeology tradition, this is a corrective history that refutes Caribbean stereotypes and maps the histories of ignored peoples by examining the most seemingly mundane everyday material culture.
