The times of archaeology and the archaeology of time
Andrew Gardner
35 - 47
Contends that archaeology as a discipline has not developed any theory of time. Chronology is used as a measuring tool but there has been little consideration of this as being only one, culturally specific, kind of temporality among many others experienced by people in their daily lives. This paper discusses various perspectives on archaeological times and argues for an abandoning of the dualism between measured and experienced times which has emerged in some attempts to tackle the issue. Points out that archaeologists are in a position to contribute to wider discussions of time from their understandings of the materialized temporalities of past human agents and to develop perspectives on the importance of these to the very nature of human social agency as a form of engagement with the world.

Notes difficulties with restricting the chronological boundaries of industrial archaeology to the period of the Industrial Revolution. Also examines the thematic boundaries using recent publications in historical archaeology. Finally defines industrial archaeology as cultural anthropology, concerned with studying and explaining people at work in different setting.
