About this book

A modern, comprehensive compilation of more than 7,000 entries covering themes, concepts, and discoveries in archaeology written in nontechnical language and tailored to meet the needs of professionals, students and general readers. The main subject areas include artifacts; branches of archaeology, chronology; culture; features; flora and fauna; geography; geology; language; people; related fields; sites; structures; techniques and methods; terms and theories; and tools.

Reviews

`Kipfer has included a whole wealth of terms and topics that have tangential, yet meaningful, relationships with the world of archaeology. ... An appended timeline, which traces the development of writing over the millennia, is another attractive feature of this new dictionary.'
Odyssey, March/April 2001
