Classical Archaeology: An Introduction, written by two respected archaeologists, is designed as a genuinely archaeological textbook. It is distinctive in its approach because it does not privilege art unduly; since archaeology is the study of material culture, high and low, this book is concerned with more than just fine art and monumental architecture. It covers both traditional aspects of classical archaeology as well as more recent developments. Well illustrated, with highlighted sections on special topics, this book is designed explicitly for undergraduates beginning their study of classical archaeology.
