Many people still believe archaeologists are tough, pith~helmet~clad men and women slashing their way through clinging jungle or penetrating the secrets of ancient pyramids. There was a lot of truth in these tired stereotypes a century or more ago, for to discover an early civilization was to venture far off the beaten track. Englishman Austen Henry Layard unearthed Assyrian Nineveh in the 1840s. John Lloyd Stephens and Frederick Catherwood revealed the ancient Maya of the Central American rainforest to an astonished world in the same decade. But by the time Leonard Woolley discovered the Royal Cemetery at Ur in 1927, archaeology had moved a long way from its treasure hunting days~although armed guards watch the tombs of the gold~laden Lords of Sipan in Peru even today. The transformation of archaeology from an amateur pastime into a sophisticated, multidisciplinary area of study is one of the great triumphs of twentieth~century science. The Oxford Companion to Archaeology celebrates this remarkable metamorphosis with a comprehensive look at archaeology and archaeologists.
