RT Article T1 Research Design in Archaeology: The Interdisciplinary Perspective JF Near Eastern archaeology VO 61 IS 1 SP 53 OP 65 A1 Halpern, Baruch LA English PB University of Chicago Press YR 1998 UL https://www.ixtheo.de/Record/1797288555 AB Archaeology today finds its most strained relations with the field of history, the field, ironically, of its intellectual origins. This circumstance restricts and diminishes archaeology. While archaeology must continue to recover and identify material culture and proceed with its interpretation, dialogue with the discipline of history enriches archaeological investigation and stirs its imagination in the creation of meaningful interdisciplinarity.
