5.0 out of 5 stars A must have for any Spanish colonial archaeologist!, September 23, 2005
This review is from: Portable Personal Possessions (Artifacts of the Spanish Colonies of Florida and the Caribbean, 1500-1800 - Volume 2) (Hardcover)
This book (along with Vol. 1) is a seminal work and a necessity for any archaeologist interested in or focusing on Spanish colonial archaeology. I would highly recommend buying both this book and Vol. 1., which is out of print at this time, but can still be found online. (If you're on a budget, just buy Vol. 1.) Everything from beads to medallions to majolica is described with likely date ranges and places of manufacture included. Collectors will also find this book useful in identifying items of Spanish origin.

The only drawback to this book is its lack of color plates. There are photos (black and white only) illustrating almost all of the categories, but much of the text would have been more informative if color examples were included.
