It presents a coherent philosophy of the field, reflecting the archaeological methods and theories of the 1960s and 70s while reviewing the methodological revisions of the 80s, and relates the archaeological data from hundreds of sites to the great questions of prehistorical change. Thoroughly revised and updated to include new scholarship and the most recent discoveries, the third edition features new material on the Neandertals, Pleistocene cave art, the "Eve"Hypothesis, and ancient Egypt, as well as many new illustrations and an analysis of modern archaeological theory within the context of Western intellectual history.
