Description

Who Needs the Past?: Indigenous Values and Archaeology offers a deep look into the relationship between non-Western communities and their history. This book challenges the common Western idea that other cultures live in a timeless present. Instead, it provides direct evidence showing how non-academic and non-Western groups maintain a strong interest in their own past. Readers will explore how cultural identity relates to archaeological recognition. The text moves through various concepts of the past and examines how history is used in modern contexts. It also addresses the real-world conflicts that arise regarding values and ethical obligations in the field of archaeology. This work is an important exploration of the different organizational systems used to manage and understand antiquity.
