Product description

Review

"This book looks like a real boon. Teachers will welcome it; "Where's my Banning?!" will become a common cry among students; and it will be welcome among contract archaeologists and amateur groups too."
(Antiquity, 75, 2002)
"[…] I use this text in my upper level introductory lab course. [...] The Archaeologist's Laboratory provides the breadth and detail that allows instructors to pick and choose what they want to use. [...]Overall, I consider this to be the best archaeological lab. book on the market. The students all agreed that the text was clearly written and easy to understand. If ordered as a text for a class of six or more students, the price is reduced... In sum, both my students and I highly recommend this text."
(Lisa Nagaoka, University of North Texas (Geoarchaeology, An International Journal, 17:8, 2002)
"Banning has succeeded admirably well in producing a fine work for his target audience. [...]Banning's clear writing style and ability to boil down challenging concepts so that they are easily understandable for the undergraduate student (and the professors who must instruct them!) make this an immensely useful reference tool."
(Randall W. Younker, Andrews University (Bulletin of the American Schools of Oriental Research, 328, 2002)

    Ted Banning was born in Montreal, Canada, and grew up in southern Ontario, receiving his PhD in Near Eastern archaeology at University of Toronto in 1985. His broad archaeological interests eventually settled down on the Near Eastern Neolithic, including a role on the senior staff of the 'Ain Ghazal Neolithic excavations in Jordan from 1982 to 1989 and directing his own project on a series of small Neolithic, Chalcolithic, and Early Bronze Age sites in northern Jordan from 1987 onward. He is a professor in the Anthropology Department of University of Toronto, where he teaches archaeological lab methods, landscape archaeology, and settlement archaeology and pursues research on Near Eastern prehistory and archaeological survey methods.

'The Archaeologist's Laboratory' has given me that extra confidence to perform at a higher level, with good guidelines and a sound approach to backroom archaeology; a much needed addition to my library.
