Описание:
Roman Archaeology for Historians provides students of Roman history with a guide to the contribution of archaeology to the study of their subject. It discusses the issues with the use of material and textual evidence to explain the Roman past, and the importance of viewing this evidence in context. It also surveys the different approaches to the archaeological material of the period and examines key themes that have shaped Roman archaeology. At the heart of the book lies the question of how archaeological material can be interpreted and its relevance for the study of ancient history. It includes discussion of the study of landscape change, urban topography, the economy, the nature of cities, new approaches to skeletal evidence and artefacts in museums. Along the way, readers gain access to new findings and key sites - many of which have not been discussed in English before and many, for which, access may only be gained from technical reports.
Roman Archaeology for Historians provides an accessible guide to the development of archaeology as a discipline and how the use of archaeological evidence of the Roman world can enrich the study of ancient history, while at the same time encouraging the integration of material evidence into the study of the period's history. This work is a key resource for students of ancient history, and for those studying the archaeology of the Roman period.

Описание:
After more than a century of research, an enormous body of scientific literature in the field of El Argar studies has been generated, comprising some 700 bibliographic items. No fully-updated synthesis of the literature is available at the moment; recent works deal only with specific characteristics of Argaric societies or some of the regions where their influence spread. The Archaeology of Bronze Age Iberia offers a much-needed, comprehensive overview of Argaric Bronze Age societies, based on state-of-the-art research.
In addition to expounding on recent insights in such areas as Argaric origin and expansion, social practices, and socio-politics, the book offers reflections on current issues in the field, from questions concerning the genealogy of discourses on the subject, to matters related to professional practices. The book discusses the values and interests guiding the evolution of El Argar studies, while critically reexamining its history. Scholars and researchers in the fields of Prehistory and Archaeology will find this volume highly useful.

Описание: This book challenges current understandings of materials and offers an alternative approach. Conneller argues that the properties of materials emerge through practice. Case studies from Early Prehistory are used to reveal that, rather than being a minor part of technical practice, materials tell us something more fundamental about past worlds.

Описание: "Provides new and useful insights into the ways in which archaeologists can study the range of mobility strategies in hunter-gatherer, horticultural, and pastoral societies. The ethnoarchaeological case studies are impressive, and most go beyond mere cautionary tales to provide archaeologists with models of the material correlates of a number of distinct mobility strategies."--Mark S. Aldenderfer, University of California, Santa Barbara "A no-nonsense book which does exactly what it says on the cover. The twelve contributions are equally divided into two sections looking at ethnoarchaeological mobility and archaeological studies of mobility, with case studies ranging from Australia to Portugal via Kazakhstan, Madagascar, and Sulawesi. . . .More than deserves a place on the shelves of anyone working on mobility."--Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute "Brings together the research of archaeologists, bioarchaeologists, and ethnoarchaeologists to explore the role of mobility among traditional people of the past and present. The studies cover mobile horticulturalists, pastoralists, and hunter-gatherers. The focus on mobility provides a strong focal point."--American Anthropologist "A significant step forward in integrating studies of living systems with those of the archaeological record."--Journal of Human Evolution
Humans are unique in their ability to inhabit an immense range of physical habitats. This capacity partially results from the need to cope with variation in spatial and temporal distributions of critical resources. Yet factors other than the search for food often impacts relocation. Information gathering, raw material collection, social networking, trade, and mate search each present mobility needs that compete with daily food searches. While physical evidence might explain such human behavior, ethnographic information can reveal how these events interrelate, providing the missing link between human activities and the remains preserved in the archaeological record.
