Description: This thoroughly updated version of an archaeological classic, featuring the fictional archaeologist Hannah Green and her shovelbum nephew, allows students to learn the basics of archaeological theory while puzzling out a mysterious turn of events.

Review Quotes: "The author's droll humor helps incorporate theory within many other aspects of archaeology--CRM, field methods, the public, even issues of professionalism. Having taught archaeological theory for many years, I appreciate the revised edition, which is nicely updated to include more illustrations, concepts such as 'agency, ' and new references and websites." --Nancy White, author of Archaeology for Dummies
