The Archaeology of Time by Gavin Lucas

Drawing on a wide range of archaeological examples from a variety of regions and periods, this book is an introduction not just to the issues of chronology and dating, but time as a theoretical concept and how this is understood and employed in contemporary archaeology.

'Lucas presents a clear, well-written and logically structured book.. [this book] does raise some important issues for consideration by those who are concerned about the political and philosophical motives of the discipline, and the practical problems of 'doing archaeology' in Australia.' – Australian Archaeology
