The atlas of archaeology

A look at the past, through the evidence of place names, ruined buildings, and that which is buried under the ground.

This book examines sites from a Neolithic farming community in Turkey to a New World settlement in Maryland, USA, piecing together each fragment of evidence as it is unearthed.

Highlighting the special techniques and technology used by modern day archaeologists, it shows how a complete picture of past communities can be built up.
