Description and Table of Contents
Description
Structural history, the core model of the Annales School, offers the most highly developed and intellectually refined analytical programme for structuring and hence simplifying the phenomena of the past in all their complexity. The importance of structural history to archaeology is shown in two ways. Firstly, the principles developed in the Annales tradition are described and placed into the context of contemporary theoretical archaeological debate. Secondly, the book goes on to show, by means of detailed case studies, how these principles are being applied in some notable Graeco-Roman and New World archaeological studies. The combination of theory clearly explained, and practice clearly described, should make this book useful reading for professional archaeologists.
