"The SAS Encyclopedia of Archaeological Sciences provides an authoritative and expert
overview of the concepts, research, and techniques that together define the discipline.
Sponsored by The Society for Archaeological Sciences, it is an essential reference
resource for those in the field of archaeology who want to understand the lives of
those who have come before us, supported not only by science and technology, but also
by theoretical approaches from the social sciences and the humanities. Comprised of
over 480 entries contributed by scholars from all over the world and managed by 11
international and well recognized section editors, this comprehensive encyclopedia
provides a broad overview of the scientific principles and techniques that allow for
a more rigorous interpretation of archaeological data. It outlines how to study the
characteristics and properties of materials, as well as instrumental techniques and
relative methods currently applied in field and laboratory work. Key areas of content
include Foundations of Archaeological Sciences, Field Methods in Archaeology, Analyses
of Materials, Mathematics and Computer Sciences, Conservation, Cultural Heritage,
and Theoretical approaches to the study of material culture and our uses of archaeological
sciences. As the 21st century promises to bring greater challenges to our capacity
to live on the planet, archaeologists in collaboration with their scientific colleagues
provide important evidence and solutions through their documentation of the diversity
and complexity of human societies through time. The SAS Encyclopedia of Archaeological
Sciences will therefore be a valuable reference work for students, researchers, and
professionals in anthropology and archaeology as well as other disciplines."
