Historical Archaeology Zusammenfassung

Historical Archaeology Martin Hall (University of Salford, UK)

This volume offers lively current debates and case studies in historical archaeology selected from around the world, including North America, Latin America, Africa, the Pacific, and Europe.
  • Authored by 19 experts in the field.
  • Explores how historical archaeologists think about their work, piecing together information from both material culture and documents in an attempt to understand the lives of the people and societies they study.
  • Engages with current theory in an accessible manner.
  • Truly global in its approach but avoids subsuming local experiences of people into global patterns.
  • Summarizes not only the current state of historical archaeology, but also sets the course for the field in decades to come.

Historical Archaeology Bewertungen

This book should be essential reading (and reference) for any student of historical archaeology but even more than that it should be essential reading for all non-historical archaeology archaeologists so that they can understand what it is that we actually do! (Australian Archaeology)

Historical Archaeology is a deservedly self-assured, forward-looking book that insightfully frames many contemporary issues in ways that will stimulate ongoing research and assist a generation of students to become contributors to the goal of developing a global historical archaeology. It should make its way to the top of your pile of things to read. (Northeast Historical Archaeology)

Reveals the discipline flourished with international growth, acquiring sophistication associated with the best works by archaeologists. This textbook is a major step ... essential reading for students, teachers, and archaeologists worldwide. (American Antiquity)
