Review

'Sian Jones develops here a new framework for the analysis of ethnicity in archaeology that has methodological, interpretative and political implications.' -- Minerva '...powerful and definitive...' -- New Scientist In critically picking a way through the confusing history of ideas and theories, The Archaeology of Ethnicity offers a timely and much-needed synthesis and critique. With coherence and style, this book illustrates how far archaeology has come in recognising the relativity of ethnicity and the distance it still has to travel.' -- Times Literary Supplement 'This volume makes a valuable contribution to the discussion of ethnicity in archaeology, and is a 'must' for archaeologists considering aspects of ethnic identity.' -- The Archaeological Journal 'This book is useful because it summarises a long and complicated discussion of ethnicity and attempts to apply it to archaeology.' -- ARC 'This is an useful introduction to current social theories of ethnicity and a concise summary of archaeological approaches to it. It deserves to be widely raed and ought to form a springboard for further exploration.' -- Antiquity 'This book is useful because it summarises a long and complicated discussion of ethnicity and attempts to apply it to archaeology.' -- Archaeological Review, Cambridge 'A remarkable book and a welcome contribution to archaeological and anthropological reasoning about ethnicity and cultural identity. It is warmly recommended and deserves a wide readership far beyond our own disciplinary boundaries.' -- Norwegian Journal of Archaeology
