4.0 out of 5 stars Geological foundations applied to the archaeological record, 13 Sep 2001
By A Customer
Though there are many textbooks that deal with the basics of geology or physical geography, up till now there was no basic text book that dealt with the geology of the archaeological record. This book is the first one that explains the ins and outs of geological research at an undergraduate level and points to its use for archaeology. In my experience as a lecturer I can recommend this book to all archaeologists who want to understand more about earth sciences. It deals with the fundamentals of soil science, stratigraphy and to a lesser extent sedimentology. In the next chapters the individual environments (rivers, wind, ice, coast, slopes, rock shelters) are discussed, including examples of archaeological sites within those specific environments. This book is ideal for a basic course in earth sciences for archaeology students, since the book clearly indicates the importance of geology for archaeologists.
