It might seem obvious that time lies at the heart of archaeology,
since archaeology is about the past. However, the issue of time is
complicated and often problematic, and although we take it very
much for granted, our understanding of time affects the way we do
archaeology.
This book is an introduction not just to the issues of chronology
and dating, but time as a theoretical concept and how this is
understood and employed in contemporary archaeology. It provides a
full discussion of chronology and change, time and the nature of
the archaeological record, and the perception of time and history
in past societies.
Drawing on a wide range of archaeological examples from a variety
of regions and periods, The Archaeology of Time provides students
with a crucial source book on one of the key themes of archaeology.
