BLACKWELL STUDIES IN GLOBAL ARCHAEOLOGY

Series Editors : Lynn Meskell and Rosemary A. Joyce

Blackwell Studies in Global Archaeology is a series of contemporary texts, each care-

fully designed to meet the needs of archaeology instructors and students seeking

volumes that treat key regional and thematic areas of archaeological study. Each

volume in the series, compiled by its own editor, includes 12–15 newly commis-

sioned articles by top scholars within the volume’s thematic, regional, or temporal

area of focus.

What sets the Blackwell Studies in Global Archaeology apart from other available texts

is that their approach is accessible, yet does not sacriﬁce theoretical sophistication.

The series editors are committed to the idea that usable teaching texts need not

lack ambition. To the contrary, the Blackwell Studies in Global Archaeology aim to

immerse readers in fundamental archaeological ideas and concepts, but also to illu-

minate more advanced concepts, thereby exposing readers to some of the most

exciting contemporary developments in the ﬁeld. Inasmuch, these volumes are

designed not only as classic texts, but as guides to the vital and exciting nature of

archaeology as a discipline.
