Античная полевая археология

Many people are now interested in archeology. Soviet people are interested in everything - from the problems of the emergence of human society to the heroic exploits of the Great Patriotic War. And this is understandable. More and more people are striving not only to read an interesting book or article telling about new discoveries, solved mysteries of the distant past, but also to take an active part in studying the past. The rapid growth of local history is the clearest evidence of this.

This book is a good helper in learning archaeological research techniques. The author, based on his own many years of work and summarizing the best of our and foreign experience, provides a valuable methodological guide for the novice archaeologist, familiarity with which will be useful for those interested not only in the ancient era, but also in the recent past of our Motherland. The most valuable feature of the book is its historicity, the ability to show that archeology is not a treasure hunt, but a historical study.
