This handbook gathers original, authoritative articles from leading archaeologists to compile in a single place the latest thinking about archaeological methods. Topics range from theoretical models undergirding research to concrete strategies for field work and laboratory analysis. Public archaeology topics such as curation, collaboration, funding, and publication are also included among the 34 chapters in the book. Chapters are authored by well-known scholars on both sides of the Atlantic including Fagan, Hodder, Chippindale, Kvamme, McManamon, and many others. An extensive bibliography accompanies each chapter. As a single reference for current information on contemporary archaeological field methods, this volume is unmatched.
Herbert D.G. Maschner is Associate Professor of Anthropology at Idaho State University. Christopher Chippindale is curator for British collections at the Cambridge University Museum of Archaeology & Anthropology, and a research professor in Archaeology there, as well as the former editor of the journal Antiquity.
