Authors at the intersection of archaeology and anthropology open up exciting possibilities for dialogue and stretch the relationship between the disciplines in new ways.' -- Ian Hodder, Stanford University Ian Hodder, Stanford University This collection of essays on the relationships between archaeology and anthropology provides a dialogue that has waxed and waned over the years with a radical new impetus. The result is a groundbreaking set of new proposals about what anthropologists and archaeologists need to learn from each other.' -- John Gledhill, University of Manchester John Gledhill, University of Manchester For a while now archaeology has felt that 'its time has come'. Growing with thoughtful practice, merging established methodologies with sophisticated and cosmopolitan theorizing, a disciplinary maturity urges making a mark in the academy... This is precisely what [ this volume] undertakes. Indeed, whether it is Julian Thomas' mystical sounding call to embrace "presence" or Ingold's guru-like utterance that "to be is to know, and that to know is to be", there is a poignancy on the part of many of the contributions that sets this collection apart, offering introspective analysis and cognitive tools for just such therapeutic possibility.' Archaeolog This excellent set of essays examines the relationship between anthropology and archaeology It emerges from a one-day conference held at the University of Cambridge. Coherent and carefully edited throughout, it forms a major contribution to this debate. -- David Shankland Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, Vol. 20 (2014)
