Afterword: Psychology and Archaeology – The Past’s Long Reach Matt J. Rossano, Tracy B. Henley, & Edward P. KardasReviewsIt is perhaps the strongest point of this volume that both authors and editors are conscious about the complexity and challenges that the study of Cognitive Archaeology involves. Instead of trying to mask these and give solutions that fit them all, or present this book as the definitive manual for a Cognitive Archaeology methodological approach, they discuss a wide variety of cognitive mechanisms and evolutionary and historical periods. From investigations based on, among others, primate behaviour, ethnography and even psychopathology, Handbook of Cognitive Archaeology involves research spanning from remote pre-Homo times to the first civilizations and modern hunter-gatherers societies. Overall, editors Henley, Rossano and Kardas indeed fulfil their objective, producing a brilliant example on what the much-needed cross-collaboration among academic disciplines can bring to research on human cognition and its evolutionary history. -Carmen Martin-Ramos, Institute of Archaeology, University College London and Earth Sciences Department, Natural History Museum, London, UK See full review, published in the Archeological Review from Cambridge at https://doi.org/10.17863/CAM.71842 It is perhaps the strongest point of this volume that both authors and editors are conscious about the complexity and challenges that the study of Cognitive Archaeology involves.
