Abstract
The abstract describing the content of the publication or report
Abstract:
Reviews the history of site-report writing, from the enthusiastic tracts of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to the passive, more impersonal texts produced since the 1960s. Calls for more unorthodox methods of reportage such as the publication of the excavator's personal diaries and two-way debates. Also suggests different ways of mixing images with texts for wider interpretation, particularly where finds are split up into specialist reports by type, dissociating them from their original context.
