Description

Philip Duke's insightful study examines the intersection of archaeological tourism and cultural identity on a Greek island, revealing how visitors' engagement with Bronze Age Crete's remains shapes their understanding of both ancient and modern society. Through personal diaries, ethnographic interviews, site guidebooks, and tourist brochures, Duke demonstrates that archaeological sites and museums function as more than historical repositories - they actively influence how tourists perceive their own culture and legitimize social structures both at home and abroad. This Routledge publication explores the complex relationship between past and present, showing how the constructed narratives of heritage tourism affect contemporary attitudes and beliefs. Ideal for anthropology students, tourism researchers, and anyone interested in how cultural heritage shapes public perception and reinforces societal hierarchies.

Key Features

Philip Duke's research methodology combines personal diaries, ethnographic interviews, and tourist brochures to provide comprehensive analysis of archaeological tourism dynamics.

The study examines how Bronze Age Crete's archaeological sites influence visitors' perceptions of culture and legitimize class structures.

Published by Routledge in the Heritage, Tourism, and Community series, offering academic rigour in tourism and anthropology studies.

Explores the nexus between past and present, demonstrating how museums and constructed heritage narratives shape contemporary social understanding.
