Archaeology: Theories, Methods, & Practice

Book info: Archaeology: Theories, Methods, & Practice (Kindle, 672 pages) – W. W. Norton & Company Limited, 2024. Language: English.

This authoritative survey of archaeological practice takes a unique approach by launching each chapter with an important question that archaeologists consider. In this edition, new co-author Elizabeth DeMarrais, an expert in the archaeology of the Americas, introduces recent discoveries and advances in methodology, analysis, and interpretation, paying special attention to the contributions of women, people of color, and Indigenous communities, and to how the discipline is changing amid calls for decolonization and diversification.
