Archeologia
ilość książek w kategorii: 15486
Archeologia, to nauka, której celem jest odtwarzanie społeczno-kulturowej przeszłości człowieka na podstawie znajdujących się w ziemi, na ziemi lub w wodzie źródeł archeologicznych, czyli materialnych pozostałości działań ludzkich. Ze względu na cel tej dyscypliny archeologia w tradycji środkowoeuropejskiej (w krajach niemieckojęzycznych i słowiańskich) ściśle łączy się z historią. W krajach anglosaskich, zwłaszcza w Stanach Zjednoczonych, archeologię uważa się za wiążącą się ściśle z antropologią i etnologią. We Francji, archeologię uważa się często także za związaną z naukami o Ziemi. Archeologia pierwotnie zajmowała się jedynie najdawniejszymi dziejami człowieka, obecnie wspomaga również rekonstrukcję czasów historycznych, w tym także i najnowszych. W księgarni internetowej krainaksiazek.pl znajdziesz ogromny wybór książek archeologicznych, tych, które przedstawiają ujęcie anglosaskie, oraz środkowoeuropejskie. Przeczytasz najnowsze publikacje i odkrycia naukowe z tej dziedziny po angielsku, niemiecku, hiszpańsku, czesku, francusku, a także w innych językach.

Roman Sculpture from the North West Midlands
ISBN: 9780197262900 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This is the first comprehensive catalogue of the sculpture from this region of Roman Britain. The sculptures were carved locally, and provide an index of Romanisation in the far north-west of the Roman Empire--in particular at Devra (Chester), Viroconium (Wroxeter), and at Letcetum (Wall, Staffs). The works range in quality from highly accomplished and decorative altars and tombstones, to rather ham-fisted efforts which hint that it was not always possible to attract sculptors to these relatively remote places. Such factors are discussed in an extended introduction.

In this genuinely productive interdisciplinary dialogue, engineering scientists, archaeologists and historians discuss how recent exciting developments in imaging, image analysis, and image display/diffusion can be applied to three-dimensional objects of material culture from the classical world, ranging from inscribed writing tablets to buildings and urban sites. The fifteen papers explore the ways in which the scientific contributors and the historians are thinking about subjectivity of interpretation, visual cognition, and the need to improve the presentation of evidence so as to feed...

ISBN: 9780198132257 / Angielski / Twarda / 1987 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The first full stylistic study of the Micali Painter, an ancient vase-painter, this book provides a catalogue of his surviving work (about 200 pieces) and an account of his development within, and influence on, archaic Etruscan painting. It clarifies the artist's unique contributions to the black-figure style that owed more to native imagination than to Athenian influence, and demonstrates the Micali Painter's vivacity, originality, and range through a wealth of illustrations.

Fossils and Evolution
ISBN: 9780198504245 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Rather than survey of the extensive data, this book focuses on the ideas, methodology and scope of contemporary palaeobiology. It examines the complex interdependence of evolutionary theory and the interpretation of the fossil record. The author demonstrates that this is not the circular argument between pattern and process sometimes alleged, but a matter of understanding carefully the interrelationship between palaeontological and neontological evidence. The first part of the book consists of four chapters outlining the central principles: the nature of the pattern/process relationship,...

An Outline of Phanerozoic Biogeography
ISBN: 9780198540601 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The general acceptance of plate tectonics and continental drift by the early 1970s galvanized the study of biogeography and our understanding of the origin and evolution of life. However, until now the accumulated information has been widely scattered in the literature. This book is the first to synthesize the results of over two decades of prolific research in a clear, concise format accessible to students of geology, geography, and biology. It will also serve as a valuable resource for teachers of paleontology who are interested in paleobiogeography as well as for geologists needing to know...

Finding Time for the Old Stone Age: A History of Palaeolithic Archaeology and Quaternary Geology in Britain, 1860-1960
ISBN: 9780199215478 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Finding Time for the Old Stone Age explores a century of colorful debate over the age of our earliest ancestors. In the mid nineteenth century curious stone implements were found alongside the bones of extinct animals. Humans were evidently more ancient than had been supposed--but just how old were they? There were several clocks for Stone-Age (or Palaeolithic) time, and it would prove difficult to synchronize them. Conflicting timescales were drawn from the fields of geology, palaeontology, anthropology, and archaeology. Anne O'Connor draws on a wealth of lively, personal correspondence to...

Early Medieval Settlements: The Archaeology of Rural Communities in North-West Europe 400-900
ISBN: 9780199246977 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The excavation of settlements has in recent years transformed our understanding of north-west Europe in the early Middle Ages. We can for the first time begin to answer fundamental questions such as: what did houses look like and how were they furnished? how did villages and individual farmsteads develop? how and when did agrarian production become intensified and how did this affect village communities? what role did craft production and trade play in the rural economy? In a period for which written sources are scarce, archaeology is of central importance in understanding the 'small worlds'...

Facts on the Ground: Archaeological Practice and Territorial Self-Fashioning in Israeli Society
ISBN: 9780226001951 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Archaeology in Israel is truly a national obsession, a practice through which national identity and national rights have long been asserted. But how and why did archaeology emerge as such a pervasive force there? How can the practices of archaeology help answer those questions? In this stirring book, Nadia Abu El-Haj addresses these questions and specifies for the first time the relationship between national ideology, colonial settlement, and the production of historical knowledge. She analyzes particular instances of history, artifacts, and landscapes in the making to show how archaeology...

The Fate of the Mammoth: Fossils, Myth, and History
ISBN: 9780226112923 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. From cave paintings to the latest Siberian finds, woolly mammoths have fascinated people across Europe, Asia, and North America for centuries. Remains of these enormous prehistoric animals were among the first fossils to be recognized as such, and they have played a crucial role in the birth and development of paleontology. In this lively, wide-ranging look at the fate of the mammoth, Claudine Cohen reanimates this large mammal with heavy curved tusks and shaggy brown hair through its history in science, myth, and popular culture.

Kingship and the Gods: A Study of Ancient Near Eastern Religion as the Integration of Society and Nature
ISBN: 9780226260112 / Angielski / Miękka / 1978 / 470 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This classic study clearly establishes a fundamental difference in viewpoint between the peoples of ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia. By examining the forms of kingship which evolved in the two countries, Frankfort discovered that beneath resemblances fostered by similar cultural growth and geographical location lay differences based partly upon the natural conditions under which each society developed. The river flood which annually renewed life in the Nile Valley gave Egyptians a cheerful confidence in the permanence of established things and faith in life after death. Their Mesopotamian...

Experimental Determination of Stone Tool Uses: A Microwear Analysis
ISBN: 9780226428895 / Angielski / Miękka / 1980 / 226 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. A major problem confronting archeologists is how to determine the function of ancient stone tools. In this important work, Lawrence H. Keeley reports on his own highly successful course of research into the uses of British Paleolithic flint implements. His principal method of investigation, known as "microwear analysis," was the microscopic examination of traces of use left on flint implements in the form of polishes, striations, and breakage patterns.
The most important discovery arising from Keeley's research was that, at magnifications of 100x to 400x, there was a high correlation... A major problem confronting archeologists is how to determine the function of ancient stone tools. In this important work, Lawrence H. Keeley reports ...

The Analysis of Animal Bones from Archeological Sites
ISBN: 9780226439587 / Angielski / Miękka / 1984 / 273 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In growing numbers, archeologists are specializing in the analysis of excavated animal bones as clues to the environment and behavior of ancient peoples. This pathbreaking work provides a detailed discussion of the outstanding issues and methods of bone studies that will interest zooarcheologists as well as paleontologists who focus on reconstructing ecologies from bones. Because large samples of bones from archeological sites require tedious and time-consuming analysis, the authors also offer a set of computer programs that will greatly simplify the bone specialist's job. After setting...
