About this book
This new edition of a work recognized since its original publication in 1966 as the "most complete concise and usable volume available in its field." has been revised and expanded to include the latest data on prehistoric migrations to the Americas as well as new sections on historical archaeology and the "flotation" technique for recovering minute remains of organic material from archaeological sites. With more than two hundred illustrations and five valuable appendices including newly updated summaries of the pertinent state antiquities laws and listings of local regional and national archaeological societies. Step by step in clear nontechnical language this volume shows the reader how to locate and excavate an archaeological site.
