As researchers bring their analytic skills to bear on contemporary
archaeological tourism, they find that it is as much about the
present as the past. Philip Duke's study of tourists gazing at the
remains of Bronze Age Crete highlights this nexus between past and
present, between exotic and mundane. Using personal diaries,
ethnographic interviews, site guidebooks, and tourist brochures,
Duke helps us understand the impact that archaeological sites,
museums and the constructed past have on tourists' view of their
own culture, how it legitimizes class inequality at home as well as
on the island of Crete, both Minoan and modern.
