The idea for this volume emerged from critical self-reflection
about diverse archaeological practices in a session presented at
the 13th European Association of Archaeologists Annual Meeting
(Zadar, Croatia, 2007), in particular the conflicting relationship
between the 'mainstream' and the 'alternative'. The field of
so-called 'fringe' or 'alternative' archaeology is vast and
multifaceted, ranging from pseudoarchaeology, 'bad' archaeology
practices, conspiracy theories and claims about lost civilizations
to extraterrestrial cultures, (neo)shamanism, religious and/or
nationalist demands. All these agendas have in common the fact
that, through their differentiated readings and appropriations of
the past, they create solidarities amongst their supporters.
