Archaeologies of Complexity

By Robert Chapman

Book Overview

Presenting a radical, alternative view of ancient state societies, this up-to-date and critical analysis of how archaeologists study past societies addresses the nature of contemporary archaeology and the study of social change, and debates the transition from perceived simple, egalitarian societies to the complex power structures and divisions of our modern world.
