The archaeology of maritime cultural landscapes offers insights into cultural traditions, social transitions, and cultural relationships that reach beyond the narrow confines of waterfronts and beach strands and helps construct meaningful social histories. The long shore of California is not limited to the land that borders the Pacific Ocean, but includes the navigable waters that reach inland, the off-shore islands, and the riverways flow to the sea. Authors investigate the multifaceted character of maritime landscapes and maritime oriented communities in California’s equally diverse cultural landscape; viewed through an archaeological lens, and emphasizing social behavior and community as material culture in order to reveal intersections and commonalities.

In 1980 and 1981, the Cultural Resource Management Unit of the Department of Parks and Recreation undertook investigations of the cultural resources of the area northwest of Gerstle Cove. The research was part of the Department's planning for construction of a parking lot, fish cleaning station, and shower facility on a recorded Native American habitation site. Concern for the archeological, historical, and ethnographical resources of the affected area, and of the entire park unit, generated a multi-disciplinary study of those resources by state archeologists, a state historian, and a Native American consultant. Historical research began with review of earlier accounts of the history of Salt Point State Park. The present report elaborates on some topics introduced in the earlier works, without referring to others (e.g., shipwrecks). This report also expands coverage to the entire region of the north Sonoma coast. Salt Point and Fisk's Mill (both now included within Salt Point State Park) were not isolated, independent settlements, but were units of a larger north coast community that included the other coastal shipping points of Fort Ross, Timber Cove, and Stewart's Point, and the ridge settlements of Plantation and Seaview (Henry's Hotel). The people of the community were bound by ties of social, economic, and commercial interdependence that must be explained in any history of Salt Point State Park. An expanded history of the area should also be useful to the Department in case of future land acquisition. Although an arbitrary cut-off date, 1890 is a convenient stopping place for this report, since it is well past the most active period of Salt Point's history -- the years between 1853 and 1876 when the quarry and mills were active.--Paraphrased from Introduction.

The Sonoma Mendocino coastline, famous for jagged cliffs, timber-filled ridges, and pounding surf, has been home to many people from varying histories and backgrounds. Pomo tribes, renowned for basketmaking, who were the first settlers and descendants, still live in the area. From early pioneers such as George Call, H.A. Richardson, Cyrus Robinson, J.A. Hamilton, and Antonio Stornetta to Pomo spiritual leader Essie Parrish and the founders of Sea Ranch (Al Boeke, and the team of designers and architects Lawrence Halprin, Charles Moore, William Turnbull, Donlyn Lyndon, and Richard Whitaker), the Sonoma Mendocino coast has many legendary locals. This area also has been home to renowned artists, musicians, writers, scientists, educators, and business leaders. Community services are especially vital to rural areas. Dedicated volunteers created Gualala Arts, services for seniors and youth, the Coast Library, theater groups, and restored historic buildings such as the famous Point Arena Lighthouse. These unsung heroes have brought new meaning to this vibrant community.

Annapolisa hidden jewel of a communityis tucked into the timber-filled ridges above the jagged northern Sonoma coastline. Undeterred by the steep, mountainous terrain and rugged living, early settlers were first lured to the area by the timber. They quickly discovered Annapolis had perfect weather for apple farming. At the beginning of the 20th century, almost every farm had apples, and apple dryers dotted the hills. The wild Gualala River, known for Coho salmon and steelhead trout, is 32 miles long and flows through the Annapolis area before meeting the Pacific Ocean. Early Native American Pomo tribes settled along this important river, which eventually served as a boundary between Sonoma and Mendocino Counties.

In a dynamic near half-century career of insight, engagement, and instruction, Kent G. Lightfoot transformed North American archaeology through his innovative ideas, robust collaborations, thoughtful field projects, and mentoring of numerous students. Authors emphasize the multifarious ways Lightfoot impacted—and continues to impact—approaches to archaeological inquiry, anthropological engagement, indigenous issues, and professionalism. Four primary themes include: negotiations of intercultural entanglements in pluralistic settings; transformations of temporal and spatial archaeological dimensions, as well as theoretical and methodological innovations; engagement with contemporary people and issues; and leading by example with honor, humor, and humility. These reflect the remarkable depth, breadth, and growth in Lightfoot’s career, despite his unwavering stylistic devotion to Hawaiian shirts.
