This pioneering collection illustrates and explores the diversity of archaeological approaches to time. The contributors contrast a scientific understanding with social, cultural and religious ideas of time.
The concept of time is salient to all human affairs and can be understood in a variety of different ways. This pioneering collection is the first comprehensive survey of time and archaeology. It includes chapters from a broad, international range of contributors, which combine theoretical and empirical material. They illustrate and explore the diversity of archaeological approaches to time.
