Experimental archaeology and the Butser Ancient Farm Project
Author(s): Peter J Reynolds
Year: 1976
Summary
The newspaper article draws the attention to the Butser Ancient Farm Research Project, in with that, the presentation of experimental archaeology. P.J. Reynolds explains how experimental archaeology can contribute to data sets and science, including that the project in Little Butser applies to different aspects of research, like botanical data or archaeological constructions. The method of experimental archaeology answers questions of how, why, and what. These questions were often ignored in past sciences, but can bring more answers, and more questions, to the field of archaeology.
