How can we use the past to make sense of the issues and problems
that concern us in the present? Mark Leone, the leading critical
theorist in historical archaeology, urges archaeologists to view
their discipline as an activist pursuit. This volume is partly his
autobiographical reflection on a thirty five year career, part a
collection of Leone's classic writings on Annapolis, Williamsburg,
Shakertown, St. Mary's, and other key sites, and part a synthesis
of his current thinking on how historical archaeology can engage
the cultural and political issues of our time. Critical Historical
Archaeology is an important summary of the work and thinking of one
of our most thoughtful, influential archaeologists.
