Archaeology in Dominica examines the everyday lives of enslaved and free workers at Morne Patate, an eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Caribbean plantation that produced sugar, coffee, and provisions.

Focusing on household archaeology, this volume helps document the underrepresented history of slavery and colonialism on the edge of the British Empire.

Contributors discuss how enslaved and free people were entangled in shifting economic and ecological systems during the plantatio.
