Book Synopsis Seriation, Stratigraphy, and Index Fossils by : Michael J. O'Brien
Download or read book Seriation, Stratigraphy, and Index Fossils written by Michael J. O'Brien and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-05-08 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is difficult for today's students of archaeology to imagine an era when chronometric dating methods were unavailable. However, even a casual perusal of the large body of literature that arose during the first half of the twentieth century reveals a battery of clever methods used to determine the relative ages of archaeological phenomena, often with considerable precision. Stratigraphic excavation is perhaps the best known of the various relative-dating methods used by prehistorians. Although there are several techniques of using artifacts from superposed strata to measure time, these are rarely if ever differentiated. Rather, common practice is to categorize them under the heading `stratigraphic excavation'. This text distinguishes among the several techniques and argues that stratigraphic excavation tends to result in discontinuous measures of time - a point little appreciated by modern archaeologists. Although not as well known as stratigraphic excavation, two other methods of relative dating have figured important in Americanist archaeology: seriation and the use of index fossils. The latter (like stratigraphic excavation) measures time discontinuously, while the former - in various guises - measures time continuously. Perhaps no other method used in archaeology is as misunderstood as seriation, and the authors provide detailed descriptions and examples of each of its three different techniques. Each method and technique of relative dating is placed in historical perspective, with particular focus on developments in North America, an approach that allows a more complete understanding of the methods described, both in terms of analytical technique and disciplinary history. This text will appeal to all archaeologists, from graduate students to seasoned professionals, who want to learn more about the backbone of archaeological dating.

Book Synopsis Archaeology: A Very Short Introduction by : Paul Bahn
Download or read book Archaeology: A Very Short Introduction written by Paul Bahn and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2012-08-30 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This entertaining Very Short Introduction reflects the enduring popularity of archaeology - a subject which appeals as a pastime, career, and academic discipline, encompasses the whole globe, and surveys 2.5 million years. From deserts to jungles, from deep caves to mountain tops, from pebble tools to satellite photographs, from excavation to abstract theory, archaeology interacts with nearly every other discipline in its attempts to reconstruct the past. In this new edition, Paul Bahn brings the text up to date, including information about new discoveries and interpretations in the field, and highlighting the impact of developments such as the potential use of DNA and stable isotopes in teeth, as well the effect technology and science are having on archaeological exploration. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

This book was released on 2018-03-07 with total page 924 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Index of Archaeological Papers, 1665-1890 The Index finishes where the annual index published by the Congress of Archaeological Societies begins, and there is thus a continuous index from the first publications in the philosophical transactions of the Royal Society down to the present time. It had been my intention to complete my task by adding a classified subject index, but the work has so exceeded its original compass that I have found it impossible to accomplish this further task. I am not without hopes, however, that this necessary addition may be accomplished by some younger student anxious to be of service in the cause of research. It has been found necessary to have an appendix of titles omitted in the course of the compilation, and students should not fail to consult this appendix, as well as the main Index.

Book Synopsis Digital Archaeology by : Michael W. Graves
Download or read book Digital Archaeology written by Michael W. Graves and published by Pearson Education. This book was released on 2013 with total page 597 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Digital Archaeology, expert practitioner Michael Graves has written the most thorough, realistic, and up-to-date guide to the principles and techniques of modern digital forensics. He begins by providing a solid understanding of the legal underpinnings and critical laws affecting computer forensics, including key principles of evidence and case law. Next, he explains how to systematically and thoroughly investigate computer systems to unearth crimes or other misbehavior, and back it up with evidence that will stand up in court. Drawing on the analogy of archaeological research, Graves explains each key tool and method investigators use to reliably uncover hidden information in digital systems. Graves concludes by presenting coverage of important professional and business issues associated with building a career in digital forensics, including current licensing and certification requirements.
