Interpreting Archaeology

How does archaeology inform our knowledge of the past? Interpreting Archaeology focuses on how data from discoveries is used to narrate and explain the history of our civilisations. Beginning with developments in the study of hominid evolution and the spread of Homo sapiens, we follow a fascinating path of archaeological finds that shows how human consciousness has developed; how mankind became domesticated and cultivated land and conceived thoughts about religion and art; the use of writing and records; the construction of buildings and monuments; and the pursuit of power through conquest.

Highlighting both well-known and lesser, but significantly important, digs, Interpreting Archaeology takes readers on a journey around the world, revealing the reasons for the Eastern Roman Empire's survival; what life was like in Tudor London or Mughal Delhi; and the legacies of revolutions and wars. Culminating in an assessment of what the archaeologist of the future might find themselves searching for, this insightful review of the part that archaeology plays in our study of our own history shows how valuable lessons can be learnt and have an impact on our lives today.
