About this ebook

“Brings together fourteen of Tim Murray’s papers on the history, philosophy, and sociology of archaeology published over two decades.” —Bulletin of the History of Archaeology
 
This volume forms a collection of papers tracking the emergence of the history of archaeology from a subject of marginal status in the 1980s to the mainstream subject which it is today. Professor Timothy Murray’s essays have been widely cited and track over twenty years in the development of the subject.
 
The papers are accompanied by a new introduction which surveys the development of the subject over the last twenty-five years as well as a reflection of what this means for the philosophy of archaeology and theoretical archaeology.
 
This volume spans Tim’s successful career as an academic at the forefront of the study of the history of archaeology, both in Australia and internationally. During his career he has held posts in Britain and Europe as well as Australia. He has edited the Bulletin of the History of Archaeology since 2003.
