Potter, Parker B. Jr. Public Archaeology in Annapolis: A Critical Approach to History in Maryland's Ancient City Washington, D.C. Smithsonian Inst Pr 1994 1560984104 / 9781560984108 First Edition Soft Cover New No Jacket Photographs Parker Potter examines the goals and specific initiatives in Archeology in Annapolis, a city-wide research program in Annapolis, Maryland, supported by public and private funds. In a nuts-and-bolts analysis of this program, Potter addresses several issues of archaeological interpretation. He feels that archeologists and historians need to take into consideration current economic, social, and political conditions, as well as the needs of sponsors, in presenting their findings. They are interested in not only preserving the past, Potter writes, but also their sense of identity, especially against the encroachment of outsiders. A fascinating book for anyone interested in archeology. 260 pages including maps, references and an index. Photographs scattered throughout. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Price:
7.36 USD
