An Archaeological History of Japan, 30,000 B.C. to a.D. 700 by Koji Mizoguchi

An original, substantial contribution to interpretive archaeology (the first of its kind for Japan and East Asia), An Archaeological History of Japan addresses a broad range of issues concerning the self-identification of groups and the use of the past in contemporary society.

"An Archaeological History of Japan firmly engages post-processual theory with Asian archaeology and the book deserves to be widely read and debated for its contribution to both the prehistory of East Asia and to archaeological theory in general" * Asian Perspectives *
"Of considerable interest to anthropologists, archaeologists, and ethnographers concerned with theory and practice. Those interested in world archaeology in general will appreciate the concise presentation." * Choice *
