註釋"The chapters in The Oxford Handbook of the History of Archaeology cover a wide range of topics in an original manner. They have been divided into seven blocks, each covering broad themes related to the history of archaeology. The first encompasses chapters on methodology and theory: who has written about the history of archaeology, how to work with archives and oral history, photo archives, biographies, and a critical view about "Genius," "Precursors," and "Great (White) Men". Part II deals with the practices of archaeology throughout the centuries: excavation methods, the use of stratigraphy, human remains, and the interaction between archaeology and other sciences. Objects, artifact distribution and museums are the focus of the following set of chapters in Part III, whereas Part IV of the handbook presents overviews of a selection of fields of archaeological research and types of archaeology, including gender, historical, conflict, public, and commercial archaeologies. Institutions and legislation are the focus of Part V of the handbook and the topics selected encompass the history of foreign schools in the Mediterranean, of the international congresses of archaeology, the relationship between archaeology and education, legislation, and the illicit trade in antiquities. Part VI deals with ideologies and the political context of archaeology: the religious context of particular archaeological projects in the history of the discipline; nationalism, colonialism, imperialism, and the post-colonial turn; orientalism; race and racism; and the impact of a particular ideology, communism, on archaeological theory, methodology and practice in countries with communist-led governments in the twentieth century. The final part of the book explores the social history of archaeology, with a focus on women, amateurs, the army, tourism, economics, and communities"--
