Interpreting Archaeology Finding Meaning in the Past
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Routledge
- Publish date: 02/01/1997
Description:
Interpreting Archaeology argues that archaeologists must understand their own subjective approaches to the material they study as well as recognize how past researchers imposed their value systems on the evidence they presented.
Expand description
This volume provides a forum for debate between the varied approaches to the past from leading archaeologists in Europe, North America, Asia and Australia. The contributors address the philosophical issues involved in interpretation and the origins of meaning in the evolution and emergence of "mind" in early hominids. They discuss the ways in which material culture is understood and presented in museums, and how the nature of history is itself in flux.
