Studies in Contemporary and Historical Archaeology
Studies in Contemporary and Historical Archaeology is a new series of edited and single authored volumes intended to make available current work on the archaeology of the recent and contemporary past in a timely fashion. The series is published by Archaeopress as part of the British Archaeological Reports (BAR) series of monographs. The series brings together contributions from academic historical archaeologists, professional archaeologists and practitioners from cognate disciplines who are engaged with archaeological material and practices. The series includes work from the traditions of historical and contemporary archaeology and material culture studies from Europe, North America, Australia and elsewhere around the world. It promotes innovative and creative approaches to later historical archaeology, showcasing this increasingly vibrant and global field, and celebrating its diversity, through extended and theoretically engaged case studies. The proceedings of CHAT conferences are normally published as part of joint or individual edited volumes in the series.
Proposals are invited from emerging and established scholars interested in publishing in, or editing volumes to be published as part of the series. Further details are available from the series editors Dan Hicks (dan.hicks@stx.ox.ac.uk) and Joshua Pollard (Joshua.Pollard@bris.ac.uk).
