Processual archaeologists seek to explain variability in the static archaeological record we observe in the present as a necessary first step toward learning how to learn about the operation of cultural dynamics in the past. The approach is a diverse and productive one that focuses on developing learning strategies.

Produktbeschreibung
Processual archaeologists seek to explain variability in the static archaeological record we observe in the present as a necessary first step toward learning how to learn about the operation of cultural dynamics in the past. The approach is a diverse and productive one that focuses on developing learning strategies. Researchers pursuing processual archaeology have already discovered a great deal about the archaeological record and about past dynamics, and there is a huge potential for building on the foundation laid thus far. The contributors to this volume provide clearly written research articles that are easily accessible to upper-level undergraduates and professional archaeologists. Although the papers do not focus on a single region, time period, or domain of observation (e.g. settlement patterns or lithics or site structure), they are integrated by shared goals for archaeology. This book clearly demonstrates that processual archaeology, far from having been replaced by post-processual archaeology, is becoming more and more powerful as our analytic sophistication and knowledge of the archaeological record grow.
Autorenporträt
Amber Johnson grew up dancing and even dreamed of being on Broadway. Life took a different path, leading her to a career in medicine and a family. She now lives in Jacksonville Beach with her husband, two young children, and a golden retriever named Nugget. While her 5-year-old insists, "Mom's not an author, she's a doctor," Amber's creativity shines through in her book, Everybody Goes to School. Inspired by tear-filled school drop-offs, she hopes her poems will help children who struggle with school and bring smiles to those who love it.
