Product Description

Introduction to Archaeological Science offers a clear, comprehensive introduction to archaeological science for students encountering the field for the first time. The book presents the principal areas that shape contemporary archaeological science, combining accessible explanations with strong conceptual foundations.It introduces the development of the discipline from the 19th century to the present, before exploring relative and absolute dating methods; past environments and climate; geoarchaeology; archaeobotany; zooarchaeology; human osteology; biomolecular archaeology, including ancient DNA, proteomics, and stable isotope approaches to diet and mobility; ancient technologies; and the scientific analysis of archaeological materials.It discusses commonly used analytical techniques and demonstrates how scientific approaches enhance knowledge of the human past through carefully selected case studies from world archaeology.Written in clear, accessible language, the manuscript was reviewed by students to ensure that explanations are effective and genuinely supportive of learning. Designed as a reliable entry point to the subject, Introduction to Archaeological Science is an ideal core textbook for students and practitioners beginning their archaeological training.
