Synopsis
Digging Politics explores uses of the ancient past in east-central Europe spanning the fascist, communist and post-communist period. Contributions range from East Germany to Poland to Romania to the Balkans. The volume addresses two central questions: Why then and why there. Without arguing for an east-central European exceptionalism, Digging Politics uncovers transnational phenomena across the region that have characterized political wrangling over ancient pasts. Contributions include the biographies of famous archaeologists during the Cold War, the wrought history of organizational politics of archaeology in Romania and the Balkans, politically charged Cold War exhibitions of the Thracians, the historical re-enactment of supposed ancient Central tribes in Hungary, and the virtual archaeology of Game of Thrones in Croatia. Digging Politics charts the extraordinary story of ancient pasts in modern east-central Europe.

From the Back Cover
The volume explores uses of the ancient past in east-central Europe spanning the fascist, communist, and post-communist period to the present day. Anchored in particular moments and settings, contributions range from East Germany to Poland to Romania to the Balkans. Featuring dynamic historical actors, we encounter Cold War archaeologists, flamboyant politicians, and re-enactors of the ancient past. Digging Politics uncovers transnational phenomena that place east-central Europe within a global conversation about the need for critical understandings of the past.
