Description: In this book an
internationally distinguished roster of contributors considers the state of the
art of the discipline of archaeology at the turn of the 21st century and charts
an ambitious agenda for the future.
The chapters
address a wide range of topics including, paradigms, practice, and relevance of
the discipline; paleoanthropology; fully modern humans; holocene
hunter-gatherers; the transition to food and craft production; social
inequality; warfare; state and empire formation; and the uneasy relationship between
classical and anthropological archaeology.
