New Thoughts on Current Research in East Asian Archaeology

Part of: Society for American Archaeology 84th Annual Meeting, Albuquerque, NM (2019)

This collection contains the abstracts of the papers presented in the session entitled "New Thoughts on Current Research in East Asian Archaeology," at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

This session brings together scholars who have ongoing research projects on the archaeology of East Asia. Most of the participants have been conducting their field and analytical work in East Asian institutions, and during the year leading up to the SAA they will be based in the United States, reworking and rethinking the assumptions and frameworks through which they evaluate and interpret the data they have collected. The sessions will encourage presenters to explicitly consider the theoretical and methodological basis of their work and evaluate whether their exposure to other perspectives forces a rethinking of previously held assumptions.
