Dear List Members,
A new book was published, available as free download with plenty of
experimentation put in a larger framework.
I take the chance of forwarding you the link without reading the book ;-)
http://www.intechopen.com/books/archaeology-new-approaches-in-theory-and-tec
hniques
The contents of this book show the implementation of new methodologies
applied to archaeological sites. Chapters have been grouped in four
sections:
1. New Approaches about Archaeological Theory and Methodology; 2. The Use of
Geophysics on Archaeological Fieldwork; 3. New Applied Techniques -
Improving Material Culture and Experimentation; 4. Sharing Knowledge - Some
Proposals Concerning Heritage and Education.
Many different research projects, many different scientists and authors from
different countries, many different historical times and periods, but only
one objective: working together to increase our knowledge of ancient
populations through archaeological work. The proposal of this book is to
diffuse new methods and techniques developed by scientists to be used in
archaeological works. That is the reason why we have thought that a
publication on line is the best way of using new technology for sharing
knowledge everywhere. Discovering, sharing knowledge, asking questions about
our remote past and origins, are in the basis of humanity, and also are in
the basis of archaeology as a science.
Best wishes,
