Drawing on evidence from several disciplines, Ann Brower Stahl reconstructs the daily lives of Banda villagers of west central Ghana, from the time that they were drawn into the Niger trade (around 1300 AD) until British overrule was established early in the twentieth century. The case study aims to closely integrate perspectives drawn from archaeology, history and anthropology in African studies.
"African Archaeology: A Critical Introduction" fills a crucial gap
by providing a multi-authored introduction to the archaeology of
Africa that challenges misconceptions and claims about Africa's
past, and teaches students how to evaluate these claims. Ann
Stahl's thoughtful introduction explores the contexts that have
shaped archaeological knowledge of Africa's past and asks readers
to consider for whom Africa's past matters and why. African
Archaeology comprises unique contributions by prominent
archaeologists with regional and topical expertise. They explore
the preoccupations and assumptions that have framed research,
assess the quality and reliability of evidence, and chart emerging
research directions and questions that can help build on the
strengths of earlier work, while finally setting aside long-held
misperceptions.
"African Archaeology" is a landmark volume and an indispensable tool for students, instructors, and researchers.
