This fully updated and revised edition of the best-selling title The Archaeology Coursebook is a guide for students studying archaeology for the first time. Including new methods and key studies in this fourth edition, it provides pre-university students and teachers, as well as undergraduates and enthusiasts, with the skills and technical concepts necessary to grasp the subject.
The Archaeology Coursebook:
- introduces the most commonly examined archaeological methods, concepts and themes, and provides the necessary skills to understand them
- explains how to interpret the material students may meet in examinations
- supports study with key studies, key sites, key terms, tasks and skills development
- illustrates concepts and commentary with over 400 photos and drawings of excavation sites, methodology and processes, tools and equipment
- provides an overview of human evolution and social development with a particular focus upon European prehistory.
Reflecting changes in archaeological practice and with new key studies, methods, examples, boxes, photographs and diagrams, this is definitely a book no archaeology student should be without.
