Contesting Ethnoarchaeologies provides a systematic overview of
major non-American traditions of ethnoarchaeology, with a
particular focus on Europe and Asia. It explores all stages of
their research agenda. These ethnoarchaeologies were embedded in
theoretical traditions of local archaeologies. Moreover,
ethnoarchaeological studies carried out in these different settings
targeted a wide range of different issues and addressed numerous
questions of covering all sorts of different issues. Consequently,
achieved results and data have been largely idiosyncratic and
hardly compatible. Hence, this volume aims not only to
conceptualize characteristics of these diverse ethnoarchaeologies
but more importantly put them in a broader context of the
development of archaeology in different parts of Europe and Asia.
The contributors to the volume express their own diverse views on
the cognitive and interpretative value of ethnoarchaeology for
studying prehistoric past, based on particular cases of experience
and research. As such, the volume is not only a valuable overview
of numerous ethnoarchaeological practices in different parts of the
region, but also a significant contribution to the history of
archaeological thought. This perspective shall make the book of
wider applicability and make possible to put up ethnoarchaeology as
an immanent and important element of archaeological theory.
