Archaeology: Down to Earth (5th Edition) – PDF

This ebook is a newly condensed version of “Archaeology: Down to Earth 5th Edition,” jointly authored by two of archaeology’s most prominent figures, David Hurst Thomas of the American Museum of Natural History and Robert L. Kelly of the University of Wyoming. They draw on carefully selected examples to demonstrate how archaeologists have tackled real-life issues both in the laboratory and in the field. The book encourages readers, after reading, to take a more critical view of their surroundings and be able to differentiate between fact and fiction more effectively. Students and readers will learn about the nature of archaeological data, the process of archaeological digs and surveys, and the logic that underlies scientific explanations. Furthermore, the authors provide a better understanding of the job opportunities available to archaeologists.

The 5th edition presents a new and enhanced full-color design that helps readers grasp the essential points of an image. A host of supporting resources, such as a companion website, are available for users, and an optional Doing Fieldwork: Archaeological Demonstrations CD-ROM, Version 2.0 (sold separately) is also provided by the same authors to supplement the study experience.
