Bringing together leading scholars from both disciplines, the contributions to this book set out the current state of the relationship between archaeology and anthropology and explore ways in which methodologies can be pooled to mutually enrich their practice. Difference as well as congruence are stressed, but throughout the benefits of greater dialogue are explored.
