Surveying the Field: A Look to the Future of Conflict Archaeology
Part of: Society for Historical Archaeology 2018
The use of modern military theories and training principals (including KOCOA, levels of war, the battle space concepts, and others) have been fully adopted and put to use by conflict archaeologists with much success. New research has continued to expand the use of these methods into a broader framework and now, as a discipline, it is time to assess how far we have come and to critically examine our successes and failures of these new approaches. This session hopes to explore the epistemological boundaries of Conflict Archaeology as we know it today and to look to the future of where the study of conflict archaeology is going.
