Abstract

All archaeological writing can be placed in two categories: that which reports on or interprets archaeological discoveries and that which proposes the ways and means by which new discoveries can be made or interpreted. Archaeological writing on systems theory, simulation, and method obviously belongs to the second category. Archaeological writing about the ways and means of research should be a topical triumvirate featuring theory, method, and practice. The following papers bear witness to the value of practical considerations within the field. They are useful and instructive because they address common problems from the world of real archaeology and purpose real solutions for them that have proven successful through trial and error.
