While archaeologists may not share similar perspectives or practices, they find common ground in their concern for objects monumental and mundane. This book considers the myriad ways that archaeologists engage with things in order to craft stories, both big and small, concerning our relations with materials and the nature of the past. Literally the "science of old things," archaeology does not discover the past as it was but must work with what remains. Such work involves the tangible mediation of past and present, of people and their cultural fabric, for things cannot be separated from society. Things are us. This book does not set forth a sweeping new theory. It does not seek to transform the discipline of archaeology. Rather, it aims to understand precisely what archaeologists do and to urge practitioners toward a renewed focus on and care for things. 606 $aArchaeology 606 $aMaterial culture 610 $aanthropology. 610 $aarchaeological phenomenons. 610 $aarchaeology books. 610 $abooks for history lovers. 610 $abooks for science lovers. 610 $abronze age. 610 $acoffee table books. 610 $adistraction for kids. 610 $aeasy to read. 610 $aengaging. 610 $aevolution of archaeology. 610 $ahistory of archaeology. 610 $ahistory of culture. 610 $ahome school science books. 610 $ainformative books. 610 $anonfiction books. 610 $apage turner. 610 $aphilosophical discussion. 610 $ascience and math. 610 $ascience of old things. 610 $asociety and archaeology. 610 $atheories of archaeology. 610 $awhat is archaeology. 615 0$aArchaeology. 615 0$aMaterial culture. 676 $a930.1 700 $aOlsen$b Bjørnar$01612132 702 $aShanks$b Michael$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aWebmoor$b Timothy$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818664203321 996 $aArchaeology$93992556 997 $aUNINA
