Archaeology: The Science of the Human Past provides students with a
thorough understanding of what archaeology is and how it operates
and familiarizes them with fundamental archaeological concepts and
methods. This volume introduces the basic components of
archaeology, including sites, artifacts, ecofacts, remote sensing,
and excavation. It discusses how archaeologists obtain and classify
information and how they analyze this information to formulate and
test models of what happened in the past. Cultural resource
management and the laws and regulations that deal with archaeology
around the world are described. Archaeology is placed in the
context of contemporary issues, from environmental problems to
issues affecting Indigenous populations. The sixth edition has been
updated and simplified to create a more streamlined volume to meet
the needs of the students and teachers for whom it is designed,
reflecting the latest developments in archaeological techniques and
approaches. Allowing students to understand the theoretical and
scientific aspects of archaeology and how various archaeological
perspectives and techniques help us understand how and what we know
about the past, Archaeology: The Science of the Human Past is an
ideal introduction to archaeology.
