Technology and Crafts in ArchaeologyCritical review over “Archaeological Approaches to Technology”
“Archaeological Approaches to Technology” by Heather Margaret-Louise Miller, professor at University of Toronto is truly an update survey over technology and crafts in archaeology that witnesses the hard efforts of the author. .
To do this critical review, the author of this paper first read the whole book in precise way and then made some notes over those part of the book that was necessary in terms of contents or in editorial aspects. Then to correct some shortage it was necessary to compare the Persian translation with the original texts and finally some suggestion have been made for improving the translation.
one of the most notable aspect of the book is its wide references over different area of studies in each seasons. This could be very useful for graduated students who seek to work on crafts and technology in archaeology. . From technical point of view the book is printed and edited in professional way, which its combination with its simple translation would probably satisfy the readers. The biggest shortage of the translation is that translator stick too much to the main texts and its structure in a way that in some parts of the book the grammar is more like to original language than to Persian.
