Beyond the Walls: New Perspectives on the Archaeology of Historical Households
Cite
Abstract
Household archaeology is a methodological and theoretical approach to domestic sites that can address essential social issues in the past. Beyond the Walls brings together contributions from today’s leading archaeologists and scholars who study the archaeology of households. This volume represents the breadth of perspectives on, and approaches to, the archaeology of households in North America. While previous volumes tackling this subject tend to be limited in scope, the research presented here is not restricted to a single historic time period, region, or culture. Instead, readers are exposed to the diversity of ways in which the people of the past navigated, negotiated, and contested the circumstances of their lives, as reflected in the archaeological remains of their dwellings. Beyond the Walls serves to inspire students and professional archaeologists alike to think differently about the archaeology of households within the historical sphere. It highlights current innovative ideas and methods in the field of household archaeology and provides an important contribution to the study of both the archaeology of households and the cultural landscapes they inhabit.
