Ethnoarchaeology: More than cautionary tales

Author(s): Peter White

Year: 2015

Summary

Rather than being just a set of warnings, ethnoarchaeology has made major contributions to a range of archaeological endeavours, especially in Papua New Guinea and Australia. These include broadening our view of stone and wood technologies, of site formation processes and of human-environment relations.
