In Ground in Stone: Landscape, Social Identity, and Ritual Space on the High Plains, Elizabeth Lynch masterfully explains the process of recording bedrock grinding features and demonstrates how bedrock features are integrated into a 'socialized landscape.' This book is a must-read for anyone interested in bedrock research. -- Lawrence Loendorf, Sacred Sites Research, Inc. This book is, as Lynch notes, a study in the dynamics of human cultural behavior, environment, and technology. Bedrock ground stone features can no longer be regarded as mere features on rocks but as identifiable spaces that exist in people's minds as well as on the landscape where cultural processes were reproduced and ritualized. -- Chris Zier, Formerly of Centennial Archaeology, Inc.
