Archaeological Theory

Fasat delivery, book is in better condition than described. Will buy from again.

If you want the most thorough (and more difficult) text on Archaeological Theory, Bruce Trigger's is the way to go. This version, a little more watered down but infinitely easier to read, is a great text for students and those not intimately versed in Archaeological Theory and Thought.

This textbook is THE ideal introduction to archaeological theory: a subject which at first can seem both terribly daunting to newcomers to the discipline of archaeology, and mind-numbingly tedious to fieldwork specialists.It's a delightfully readable, down-to-earth (and often highly amusing) journey through the changes in the thought behind archaeological interpretation since the New Archaeology of the early 1960s, and an absolute MUST for any Archaeology undergraduate student.
