Abstract
Real archaeology?
Richard Reece
1 - 4
Highlights the fact that archaeology is a study of the material remains of past activity, not of previous writings and interpretations of the same.
Comment on MacDonald, Hung, and Crawford, 1995, `Prehistory as propaganda'
Mark Pluciennik
5 - 7
Reply to aspects of an earlier article. Lays particular emphasis on reasserting the claim that all authorship is necessarily to some degree subjective.
In reply to MacDonald, Hung and Crawford, 1995, `Prehistory as propaganda'
Helen Wickstead

Reply to Wickstead and Pluciennik
Kevin C MacDonald
Frank Y C Hung
Harriet Crawford

Anglo-Saxon sacrifice at Cuddesdon and Sutton Hoo
Andrew J Reynolds
23 - 30
A paper examining the evidence for human sacrifice in early Anglo-Saxon England, using two frequently compared sites at Cuddesdon (Oxon) and Sutton Hoo (Suffolk). The evidence is thought inconclusive and the sites less comparable than previously accepted.
The archaeologist and ancient bio-molecules: field sampling strategies to enhance recovery
M Spigelman
69 - 73
Calls for the alteration of sampling techniques to allow for the preservation of potential sources of human bacterial DNA. Following recent advances in biotechnology, these can now be analysed using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). There are appendices on `Steps to avoid specimen on-site contamination during excavation' (72), `Where ancient bio-molecules are to be found' (73) and `How ancient bio-molecules may help archaeologists' (73).
