Opis

This work focuses attention on the design of a renewed theoretical-methodological device on which a comprehensive Archaeology of Architecture could be based. It brings together the papers from two EAA sessions organized in San Petersburg 2003 and Lyon 2004. The interest in this line of work became evident in both sessions, with outstanding contributions from several European specialists, who at the same time, focused attention on chronological-cultural matters spanning the period from the Neolithic to the Modern Age. It follows on from BAR S1175 (2003) by the same editors.
