What is Discovering Our Past : a Brief Introduction to Archaeology about?

<p><P>This brief, inexpensive introduction to the techniques, methods, and theoretical frameworks of contemporary archaeology follows the same organizing principle as the text <i>Archaeology&#58; Discovering Our Past</i> but features less detail. Archaeological methods and theory are covered comprehensively&#151;at a reasonable level of detail&#151;in under 300 pages. Illustrative examples and case studies present a temporal and geographic balance of both Old and New World sites. Abundant student aids include maps of archaeological areas, extensive illustrations, chapter introductions and summaries, a guide to further reading at the end of each chapter, a glossary, a bibliography, and an index.</p>
