Archaeology: Methods, Theories and Practice (4th edition)

by Colin Renfrew and Paul Bahn

This book sets out to provide an introduction to the whole range of methods and ideas of archaeological investigation throughout the world. Beginning with the history of archaeological discovery and ending with `Archaeology and the Public', it takes the reader through types of evidence: discovery, survey and excavation; dating and chronology; evidence of social organization; environment; diet; technology, trade and exchange; belief and religion; physical types; explanation of change. The text is interspersed with `box features' providing examples. The perspective is worldwide, with the examples drawn from absolutely everywhere Ä though there are rather more New World ones than most Old World readers will expect. The fourth
edition contains up-to-date information on theoretical approaches and methods, and other special features. 640p, over 550 figs and photos (Thames and Hudson, 4th edition 2004)
