摘要

2016年，奥利维尔·戈塞兰(Olivier Gosselain)在《考古对话》上发表了一篇论文，认为民族考古学应该“下地狱”。他的挑衅歪曲了过去四分之一世纪的民族考古学，这一点在他似乎基本上没有意识到的文学作品中很明显。在这里，我们驳斥他的指控，例如，表明民族考古学家既不把我们工作的社会视为活化石，也不对他们的工作方式抱有naïve成见。我们的反驳伴随着对所提出的主题的评论，向读者介绍了大量的近期文献。民族考古学作为一种主要由考古学家从事并为考古学家服务的物质文化研究形式，远非残骸，它具有活力和相关性，在理论、方法和历史方面做出了世界范围的贡献。正如我们在非洲所展示的那样，非西方的民族考古学家对民族考古文献做出了重大贡献。

To Hell with Ethnoarchaeology … and Back!

ABSTRACT In 2016 Olivier Gosselain published a paper in Archaeological Dialogues suggesting that ethnoarchaeology should “go to hell”. His provocation misrepresents the ethnoarchaeology of the past quarter century, as is evident in a literature of which he appears largely unaware. Here we refute his charges, showing, for example, that ethnoarchaeologists neither regard the societies with which we work as living fossils, nor do we entertain naïve stereotypes regarding their workings. Our refutations are accompanied by commentaries on topics raised that introduce readers to the substantial recent literature. Far from a wreck, ethnoarchaeology, a form of material culture studies practiced by and mainly for archaeologists, has vigor and relevance, making theoretical, methodological and historical contributions that are worldwide in scope. And as we demonstrate for Africa, non-Western ethnoarchaeologists contribute substantially to the ethnoarchaeological literature.

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.
