Reviews

This book is compelling and adds a significant contribution to the ongoing conversation about the relevance of archaeology and cultural anthropology to one another. It provides not only an intellectual history of this divide but also excellent examples from both cultural anthropologists and archaeologists of the utility of the work to the other side, the ways in which we can and should collaborate, and whether the divide is even something we should be concerned about. --David Hoffman, Mississippi State University
