They cover a range of regions, cultural periods and disciplines; including prehistory, protohistory, and early historic, with one paper on archaeozoology and one on ethnoarchaeology (Thomas and Ansari).
Download or read book Making Early Histories in Museums written by Nick Merriman and published by Burns & Oates. This book was released on 1999 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text examines the debate about interpretation and making history in the context of archaeological museums. the reliance of those working on the early periods of the past on the fragmentary information provided by archaeology, as well as an imperfect documentary record, brings its own interpretative challenges. While much has been written in the context of archaeological theory about the partiality and subjectivity of archaeologists' interpretations of the past, less has been written about the implications of this for the interpretations of archaeology by a non-specialist audience in museums. As a result, the past presented in archaeological museums has tended to follow a traditional and uncritical model.
