Description
Digging up the past has become a sophisticated science that draws on experts in dozens of specialties. The Adventure of Archaeology tells the story of how that science came into being - a compelling tale of tourists and treasure hunters, of strong-minded adventurers, of patient excavators laboring alone, of teams of scholars trekking into the desert or diving into the deep.
An archaeologist whose work has taken him from Zambia to California, author Brian M. Fagan was born and educated in England. He received his doctorate in archaeology from Cambridge University. After fieldwork in Africa, he came to the US in 1966 to teach where he is now a professor of anthropology at the University of California, Santa Barbara. - from Amzon
