UNESCO, URI, and Archaeology in the Deep Blue Sea: Archaeological Ethics and Archaeological Oceanography

Multiple groups have interests that intersect within the field of deep submergence (beyond the 50 meter range of SCUBA) archaeology. These groups?? differing priorities present challenges for interdisciplinary collaboration, particularly as there are no established guidelines for best practices in such scenarios. Associating the term ??archaeology?? with projects directed at underwater cultural heritage that are guided by archaeologists poses a real risk to that heritage. Recognizing that the relevant professional organizations, local laws, and conventions currently have little ability to protect pieces of cultural heritage across disciplines and international boundaries, the authors propose institution-specific mechanisms, called Archaeology Review Boards, guided by local and international laws and conventions concerning cultural heritage, as the best means to provide oversight for academically centered archaeological activities at the local level.     

The Management of the Maritime Archaeological Heritage in the Bailiwick of Guernsey: a Case Study

Guernsey and the other islands in its Bailiwick have been visited and settled by people arriving by sea for thousands of years. Guernsey Museum manages the display and interpretation of this maritime heritage and, in conjunction with the Receiver of Wreck, administers the legal protection of historic wreck. Over the last 25 years a considerable amount of research has been undertaken on many aspects of the islands' maritime past. Museum displays and media presentations have been made to disseminate information about the islands' maritime archaeology to the wider world. This paper will highlight the various aspects of maritime archaeology in Guernsey and illustrate how Guernsey Museum manages this rich archaeological resource.

东晋墓葬制度的考古学分析

东晋墓葬等级制度仅限于高级官员,中下级官员至庶民墓葬等级差异不明显。东晋家族内部墓葬等级差异也不明显,但各家族墓葬的形制和规格似有一定规则,而与家族地位之高低不甚关联。东晋帝王陵墓家族墓葬化,乃当时现实政治之曲折反映。东晋墓葬制度状况与东晋门阀世族社会的现实等级差异不甚相符,此认识对东晋历史研究有一定价值。     

河南灵宝市五帝遗址考古勘探报告

2018年11月~12月,为从聚落层面对灵宝盆地仰韶文化时期大型遗址开展研究,河南省文物考古研究院等单位对灵宝五帝遗址进行了系统调查与勘探。结果表明,该遗址主体是一处仰韶文化中期大型聚落,南部有一条南壕沟,并发现一定数量的房址、灰坑,总面积约75万平方米。在遗址东北部还发现有庙底沟二期文化时期遗存。另外,调查发现该遗址附近有古湖相沉积,对研究该区域古环境变迁具有重要价值。

Rigorous Reasoning, Reflexive Research and the Space for 'Alternative Archaeologies'. Questions for Maritime Archaeological Heritage Management.

As England's heritage policy is shaped around us, it is vital that there is debate, and some consensus, among the maritime archaeological community on core management questions. These include approaches to degrading underwater sites, how to deal with shipwrecks threatened by development, and crucially, who should be driving these decisions. This paper argues that there is a need for self-critical analysis of the meaning of 'heritage'. It problematises the notion of professional archaeologists as 'guardians of the archaeological record' and the conception of 'heritage' formed without reference to ideas of the past being a product of the present and, therefore, the potential for the production of multiple pasts.

苏秉琦晚年考古学研究探索的启示

苏秉琦晚年围绕"国家起源和民族文化传统"这一研究探索的核心内容,创建起一个有关中国国家起源与发展的全新的学术体系。这始自1979年苏先生布局在张家口一带进行的考古探索,初衷是从考古学角度探索五帝时代前期黄帝时期的史实,后却在辽西地区红山文化晚期获得突破。然而1989年之后有悖中国古史传统的文明起源研究到处漫延,对此苏先生向大家悉心提醒与告诫,最终发出了学科发展方向"转轨"的要求。苏秉琦晚年进行的考古学研究与探索,始终围绕着与探索国家起源有关的中国古史。这是苏秉琦晚年考古学研究探索给予我们的重要启示。     

Trends in Archaeological Simulation

This paper provides an up-to-date history of archaeological computer simulation, starting with the early 1970s simulation models, but paying particular attention to those developed over the past 20–25 years. It revises earlier accounts of archaeological simulation by proposing an alternation between programmatic phases, in which published work tends to be about simulation as a method, and mature phases in which there is greater emphasis on the substantive results of simulation experiments. The paper concludes that the burgeoning interest in computer simulation since circa 2000 is largely characterized by mature application in areas where it fits naturally into existing inferential frameworks (e.g., certain strands of evolutionary archaeology) but that explicitly “sociological” simulation remains a challenge.
