A SHORT INTRODUCTION TO ARCHAEOLOGY

The value of archaeology as an aspect of history and an integral part of the study of human behavior is brilliantly and clearly analyzed by V. Gordon Childe, formerly Director of Archaeology at London University and internationally known as a superb writer, as well as a leading archaeologist. Outlining the technical knowledge essential to the study of all branches of archaeology, he describes the classifications of specimens and the chronology of archaeological periods, discusses archaeological sites, offers hints on recognizing monuments in the field, shows how to interpret data, and supplies a wealth of general information to provide a richer understanding of the subject for practitioners, novices and all those interested in the human past.
