Description:

Class limited to twenty students. The agenda and conceptual apparatus of contemporary archaeological thought rest squarely upon the discipline's early intellectual foundations. This seminar examines the roots of archaeological thought and practice in classic writings from the early systematic explorations of the past through its material culture through Walter W. Taylor' s watershed study of the discipline in 1948. We examine works of seminal researchers (e.g., Layard, Schliemann, Morgan, Petrie, Boas, Kidder, Lubbock, Kossina, Childe, Morley) . A. T. Smith.
