This book is dedicated to two men who have influenced my life tremendously. In loving memory of my grandfather, Ernest Aaron Adair, for loving me unconditionally, and for teaching me the significance of laughter. In my heart you’ll always be “my favourite guy”! and Dr James W. Lee, founder and past president of the Archaeological Society of Jamaica, for your decades of contribution to Jamaican archaeology, and for your initiative and extensive research, which laid the foundations for Jamaican prehistoric archaeology. Thank you!
