QUOTES
"A great book . . . an authoritative and balanced treatment of a broad topic. . . . Archaeology Essentials hits the main points without sacrificing substance."
"Engagingly written, illustrated, and organized for novices and students alike, this authoritative volume vividly captures the exciting practices and applications of archaeology in the twenty-first century." "A very strong aspect of the text is found in the sections on Social Archaeology, where not only processual concepts for studying social and political differentiation through material culture are stressed, but also the promises of identity, ethnicity, conflict, and social inequality. . . . In all, this brief introduction is remarkably full—if one didn't know it was a scaled back edition one would hardly believe it, as the treatment of an immense topic, from so many perspectives, is so rich." |
