Abstract
Retracing Inca Steps is an autobiographical retrospective about Dean Arnold ’ s early and impactful ethnoarchaeological ceramics research in Ayacucho, Peru in the 1960s and 70s. Arnold writes from an accessible, fi rst-person perspective with anthropological sensitivity and self-e ff acing humor. The book is a combination of a behind-the-scenes look at how his research design changed over the course of the fi eld season and a “ how-to ” for navigating di ff erent cultural perspectives, ethical quandaries, and di ffi cult fi eld situations, especially regarding food and digestion. Arnold chronicles how anthropology his limited social and and how his early was innovative for ceramic ethnoarchaeology. Arnold
期刊介绍:
Ethnoarchaeology, a cross-cultural peer-reviewed journal, focuses on the present position, impact of, and future prospects of ethnoarchaeological and experimental studies approaches to anthropological research. The primary goal of this journal is to provide practitioners with an intellectual platform to showcase and appraise current research and theoretical and methodological directions for the 21st century. Although there has been an exponential increase in ethnoarchaeological and experimental research in the past thirty years, there is little that unifies or defines our subdiscipline. Ethnoarchaeology addresses this need, exploring what distinguishes ethnoarchaeological and experimental approaches, what methods connect practitioners, and what unique suite of research attributes we contribute to the better understanding of the human condition. In addition to research articles, the journal publishes book and other media reviews, periodic theme issues, and position statements by noted scholars.
