About this book
Reviews
“A short-format archaeological monograph that is approachable by both the advanced undergraduate and seasoned researcher … . The book is timely, building on recent efforts to problematize not only the colonial project but also European scholars’ continuing control over discourses rooted in postcolonial localities. … Farrujia highlights the interface of culture, history, and local politics. … In conclusion, this is a rigorous, clear, and important volume that deserves a wide readership.” (Sarah Mattes, African Archaeological Review, Vol. 32, 2015)
