Description

Anthropology and Archaeology: A Changing Relationship by Chris Gosden provides a comprehensive introduction to the theories and methods of these two interconnected subjects. This volume explores the historical relationship between archaeology and anthropology, tracing their development from the early history of the disciplines through to the colonial period. The book examines how archaeology and anthropology are linked in their study of kinship, economics, and symbolism, and discusses how each field contributes to debates about gender, material culture, and globalism in the post-colonial world. By taking a broad historical approach, Gosden sheds light on the complex relationships between these subjects. This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in understanding the evolution of archaeology and anthropology as disciplines.
