"Confronté à une découverte d'objet archéologique, le fouilleur ne sait pas toujours comment l'interpréter. Avec quels outils le déterminer ou le classer ? Peut-on caractériser un site à partir de l'analyse de ses objets ? Qu'apportent les analyses quantitatives et qualitatives ? Ce petit manuel répond à ces interrogations et à bien d'autres questions que peut se poser un archéologue face à un objet.0Ecrit d'abord pour les étudiants, mais plus largement pour toute personne envisageant une analyse d'objet archéologique, il se présente comme une introduction à l'étude du mobilier. Sont abordés successivement les aspects méthodologiques, les interrogations théoriques, les classements typologiques, les problèmes de quantification et d'échantillonnage, et enfin les méthodes d'étude et d'illustration, sans oublier l'interprétation générale des résultats et l'apport du spécialiste dans le cadre d'une publication."--Cover, page 4

  Digging, recording, and writing are the three main processes that archaeologists undertake to analyze a site, yet the relationships between these processes is rarely considered critically. Reconsidering Archaeological Fieldwork asserts that each of these processes involve active interpretation. When a group of archaeologists works together to reconstruct  the past, at a particular time, at a particular site, their field methods and interpretations affect the final analysis and constantly test the boundaries of what is subjective and what is objective.   This volume explores the important nature of the relationship between fieldwork, analysis, and interpretation. Containing contributions from a diverse group of archaeologists, both academic and professional, from Europe and the Americas, it critically assesses accepted practices in field archaeology, and provides thoughtful and innovative analysis of these procedures. By combining the experiences of both academic and professional archaeologists, Reconsidering Archaeological Fieldwork highlights key differences and key similarities in their concerns, theories, and techniques. This volume will incite discussion on fundamental questions for all archaeologists, both old and new to the field.

Archaeologists working on late antique sites have not spent enough time thinking about methodology. Their focus has been on recovering and cataloguing evidence, or on the study of specific historical problems. Digging has often been more important than publishing, which has rarely extended beyond the basic summaries found in preliminary reports. The re-emergence of clearance excavation, fuelled by the demands of tourism, has further reduced the value of urban excavations in the East Mediterranean. Here, late antique levels have suffered, in the hunt for photogenic early imperial architecture. This volume attempts to address this situation by offering a critique of present practice and a series of exemplars, alongside discussion articles on field technique and post-excavation analysis. The articles ranges from urban survey to the study of finds. The book also considers if we need to develop specific field methods appropriate to the study of late antiquity.
