Product Information
Picture of the Past Mick Aston and Tim Taylor inspire us with their enthusiasm for archaeology to look at the evidence of the past all around us. Unearthing a range of sites from early cities to medieval castles and Industrial Age factories they reveal the activities that took place and make detailed identifications of key objects found there. Extensive Illustrations The Atlas of Archaeology is sumptuously illustrated with photographs of the artefacts found at each site followed by a detailed full-colour drawing of the site as it would have appeared originally. Photographs of archaeologists at work and explanations of their techniques provide the technical information that is the basis of all archaeological digs. Comprehensive Gazetteer Fourteen full-colour maps show more than 1 200 sites around the world and accompanying profiles give the location of each the date of discovery and the key finds. Lavishly illustrated and expertly researched this fascinating guide to the world of archaeology will encourage all those interested in the past to take a completely fresh and informed look at their surroundings.Product Identifiers
