World Prehistory and Archaeology provides an integrated discussion
of world prehistory and archaeological methods, presenting an
up-to-date perspective on what we know about our human prehistory
and how we come to know it. A cornerstone of World Prehistory and
Archaeology is the discussion of prehistory as an active process of
discovery. Methodological issues are addressed throughout the text
to engage readers. Archaeological methods are introduced, following
which the question of how we know the past is discussed. This fifth
edition involves readers in the current state of archaeological
research, revealing how archaeologists work and interpret what they
find. Through the coverage of various new research, author Michael
Chazan shows that archaeology is truly a global discipline. In this
edition there is a particular emphasis on the relevance of
archaeology to contemporary society and to the major issues that
face us today. This edition will provide students with a necessary
grounding in the fundamentals of archaeology, before engaging them
with the work that goes into understanding world prehistory. They
will be given the tools to place this knowledge in the context of
the modern world, acknowledging the relevance of archaeology to the
concerns of today.
