Title: | A Dictionary of Archaeology |
Authors: | Shaw, Ian Jameson, Robert ROBERT JAMESON |
Keywords: | Archaeology—Dictionaries |
Issue Date: | 1999 |
Publisher: | Blackwel |
Description: | The principal aim of this dictionary is to provide readers with a reference tool for the terms, techniques and major sites in archaeology, but it is also intended to reflect the constant state of flux in the discipline. This is a difficult balancing act in a concise volume. Presenting archaeology as a process rather than as a body of knowledge implies that particular sites, cultures, methodologies and conceptual models must also be described in a way that is in some sense ‘provisional’ and open to change. The degree to which the entries succeed in this varies from one subject area to another, but we hope that the book as a whole conveys a sense of the challenges, ambiguities and theoretical context of archaeology as well as the surveyed and excavated data |
