The Archaeologist’s Fieldwork Companion is the only
current collection of the practical information and material needed
by archaeologists doing fieldwork. Specifically designed as a
one-volume resource to be carried into the field, this concise
informational toolkit provides detailed sections on classification
and typology, creating forms and records, measurement and
conversion, mapping, drawing, and photographing, and help with
planning, along with a section of lists and checklists, and a
resources section containing information on relevant associations
and publications, the law and ethics relating to archaeology, and
where to buy supplies. A final section contains extensive lists of
abbreviations.
This rich compendium of crucial tools will be an invaluable aid not only to students undertaking fieldwork for the first time, but also to seasoned archaeologists.
