ARCHAEOLOGY – Volume I by Donald L. Hardesty Pdf

Archaeology is a component of Encyclopedia of Social Sciences and Humanities in the global Encyclopedia of Life Support Systems (EOLSS), which is an integrated compendium of twenty one Encyclopedias. Archaeology is a road for traveling into the past that is independent of and complementary to documents and memory. The archaeological record provides historical perspectives on variability and change in human life support systems with the potential for use in planning for future sustainable development. The Theme is organized into four different topics which represent the main scientific areas of the theme: - Foundations of Archaeology; - The Archaeology of Life Support Systems; - World Cultural Heritage; - Preserving Archaeological Sites and Monuments which are then expanded into multiple subtopics, each as a chapter. The first topic deals with historical, methodological, and theoretical foundations of archaeology. The second topic explores the archaeological record of human life support systems and includes chapters on foraging, food production such as farming and nomadic lifestyles, civilizations, water-management systems, and sustainability. World cultural heritage is the third topic. Finally, the fourth topic covers the preservation of cultural memorials such as archaeological sites, landscapes, and monuments. These two volumes are aimed at the following five major target audiences: University and College Students Educators, Professional Practitioners, Research Personnel and Policy Analysts, Managers, and Decision Makers, NGOs and GOs.

Lives in Land – Mucking excavations by Christopher Evans,Grahame Appleby,Sam Lucy Pdf

The excavations led by Margaret and Tom Jones on the Thames gravel terraces at Mucking, Essex, undertaken between 1965 and 1978 are legendary. The largest area excavation ever undertaken in the British Isles, involving around 5000 participants, recorded around 44,000 archaeological features dating from the Beaker to Anglo-Saxon periods and recovered something in the region of 1.7 million finds of Mesolithic to post-medieval date. While various publications have emerged over the intervening years, the death of both directors, insufficient funding, many organizational complications and the sheer volume of material evidence have severely delayed full publication of this extraordinary palimpsest landscape. Lives in Land is the first of two major volumes which bring together all the evidence from Mucking, presenting both the detail of many important structures and assemblages and a comprehensive synthesis of landscape development through the ages: settlement histories, changing land-use, death and burial, industry and craft activities. The long time-gap since completion of the excavations has allowed the authors the unprecedented opportunity to stand back from the density of site data and place the vast sum of Mucking evidence in the wider context of the archaeology of southern England throughout the major periods of occupation and activity. Lives in Land begins with a thorough evaluation of the methods, philosophy and archival status of the Mucking project against the organizational and funding background of its time, and discusses its fascinating and complex history through a period of fundamental change in archaeological practice, legislation, finance, research priorities and theoretical paradigms in British Archaeology. Subsequent chapters deal with the prehistoric landscape, each focusing on the major themes that emerge by major period from analysis and synthesis of the data. The authors draw on archival material including site notebooks and personal accounts from key participants to provide a detailed but lively account of this iconic landscape investigation.

Surrey Archaeological Collections by Surrey Archaeological Society Pdf

Excerpt from Surrey Archaeological Collections: General Index to Volumes I to XX Written during a period in which the science of Archaeology has seen its most remarkable development, the papers contained in these twenty volumes are necessarily of very varying interest and value. Many of them, especially in the earlier volumes, are purely tentative in character. Others, on the other hand, more particularly in the later volumes, embody the results of sound research and well-advanced knowledge. The subjects with which the papers deal embrace practically every branch of archaeology with which the county is concerned. AS the Society has always been dependent for them upon the work of volun teer writers, following for the most part their own particular lines of research, it is inevitable that the volumes published whilst the science was still in its experimental stage should exhibit, in their general character, a certain desultoriness and want of unity in aim. It may well be one Of the functions of the present Index, in addition to those ordinary functions which a work of its description is expected to fulfil, to correct this defect in some measure by summarising and consolidating the results already achieved by the Society; and by exhibiting thereby the present gaps in its knowledge to point out the directions in which future research should be made.
