The Caribbean region projects a rich diversity in cultural settings that relate to a complex historical landscape in which local contexts punctuate global trends with unique material expressions. Archaeologists have explored a wide range of social issues and intellectual problems including colonialism, contact, globalization, power, and the complexities of slavery and freedom. This chapter will provide an overview of historical archaeology in the region including a review of research foci, an examination of thematic problems that have been addressed, theoretical approaches that have been used, and perspectives on new trends and ideas that are being explored today (Figs. 1 and 2).

The Brimstone Hill Society was founded in 1965 and is now known as the Brimstone Hill Fortress National Park Society. It was established as a means to protect the site and to facilitate its restoration. Their long-term efforts ultimately led to the creation of Brimstone Hill Fortress National Park and the designation of this historic property as a UNESCO World Heritage site.
