Since its first publication,
Field Archaeology: An Introduction
has proved to be a key handbook for all those undertaking introductory courses in archaeology or volunteering on their first excavation. In this revised second edition, key developments in technology, theory and changes in the law are included, bringing it up to date with the most recent fieldwork practices. The dig is the face of archaeology most immediately recognised by the general public, and is often what attracts both students and amateurs to the discipline. Yet there is much more to working in the field than digging alone. Peter Drewett's comprehensive survey explores the process, from the core work of discovery and excavation to the final product, the published archaeological report. The main topics are:
How an archaeological site is formed
Finding and recording archaeological sites
Planning excavations, digging the site and recording the results
Post-fieldwork planning, processing and finds analysis
Interpreting the evidence
Publishing the report
Illustrated with 100 photographs and line drawings, and using numerous case studies, this second edition of
Field Archaeology
ensures it will remain the essential introductory guide for archaeology students and the growing number of enthusiasts for the subject.
