The Oxford Handbook of the History of Archaeology offers comprehensive perspectives on the origins and developments of the discipline of archaeology and the direction of future advances in the field. Written by thirty-six archaeologists, historians, and historians of science from all over the world, it covers a wide range of themes, including major debates, scientific techniques, and archaeological fieldwork practices. Chapters in this handbook also discuss the effect of institutional contexts on the development of archaeology, including legislative parameters and the nature of the work that takes place in museums, universities, and the management of archaeology. Other themes include the cultural and political backdrop that has affected archaeological research, from religion to nationalism and colonialism, and the social history of archaeology, with a focus on women, amateur archaeology, economics, and tourism.

Archaeology in the Global Cold War explores archaeological practices, theories, and methods, as well as social networks and knowledge circulation in Eastern and Western Europe and beyond during the Cold War (1947–1989).Drawing on archival sources, published works, and personal recollections, this volume examines archaeology under the Cold War at a broad international scale and from a range of thematic, theoretical, and methodological perspectives. It is structured in five parts. The first examines how political ideology and propaganda shaped archaeological knowledge production. The second explores the relationship between Cold War science policy and archaeological practice. The third analyses the role of institutions and individual actors. Addressing theory and method, the fourth part considers developments such as aerial photography and the work of influential figures. The volume concludes with personal accounts by archaeologists reflecting on their professional experiences, integrating lived experience with broader historical analysis.This volume is for archaeologists interested in the history of their discipline, historians of science and the humanities, and scholars of contemporary history working on the intellectual history of the Cold War.
