Barb,

I think the "Deetz 1991" citation you're looking for (where Jim first published that quip) is:

Historical Archaeology in Global Perspective, a Smithsonian paperback published in 1991, about which has been said (by one reviewer): "An excellent introduction to historical archaeology, the book opens and closes with essays by James Deetz and Kathleen Deagan that suggest historical archaeology can point to patterns across and among cultures as well as uncover societies lost to the written record."
