Stephanie’s Suggested Five (or so) Texts

Note from Steph: Ok, so that was a lot more than 5. I'll put some stars next to the texts that should definitely be included, the rest are optional!

1) On recognizing the Eurocentric history and ongoing practice of archaeology and why we need to work on changing that  ** "Indigenous Archaeology as Decolonizing Practice". Sonia Atlay https://muse.jhu.edu/article/202291

2) On the general theoretical guidance that archaeologists use. I shudder at suggesting a theory text, but this is actually a well-written, easy to understand book that covers many theoretical frameworks  **"Archaeological Theory, An Introduction" 2nd Ed. Matthew Johnson https://www.wiley.com/en-us/Archaeological+Theory%3A+An+Introduction%2C+2nd+Edition-p-9781405100151

3) On pseudoarchaeology  **"Lost City, Found Pyramid: Understanding Alternative Archaeologies and Pseudoscientific Practice" Jeb Card and David Anderson https://www.amazon.ca/Lost-City-Found-Pyramid-Pseudoscientific/dp/0817319115

**"Frauds, Myths, and Mysteries: Science and Pseudoscience in Archaeology" Ken Feder https://www.amazon.ca/Frauds-Myths-Mysteries-Pseudoscience-Archaeology/dp/0078035074

"Pseudo-Archaeology: The Appropriation and Commercialization of Cultural Heritage" Alecia Bassett https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/1bdd/e83408af0678953a93c7ce26f84888a1feaa.pdf (This is a great, short, open access summary of pseudoarchaeology)

The Archaeological Fantasies blog and podcast is absolutely fantastic https://archyfantasies.com/. Ken Feder and Jeb Card who I've included in other links are co-hosts

My own blog post discussing pseudoarchaeology in general - https://bonesstonesandbooks.com/2018/01/08/knowledge-feature-pseudoarchaeology/

My own blog post offering an example of critically analyzing a proposed archaeological theory (this theory is largely rejected by the archaeological community but loved by white nationalists, which is a problem) https://bonesstonesandbooks.com/2018/01/15/sprinkling-some-grains-of-salt-on-ice-bridge/

4) Since I talk use social media a lot for public outreach, which includes talking about how archaeologists can use social media for public outreach, Lorna has a great article discussing just that "Understanding Archaeological Authority in a Digital Context" Lorna-Jane Richardson http://intarch.ac.uk/journal/issue38/richardson_index.html

My own blog post on using social media for talking about pseduoarchaeology, which is also the topic of a public lecture I'll be giving in Ottawa in October https://bonesstonesandbooks.com/2018/03/03/hashtags-and-sea-lions-using-social-media-to-break-down-pseudoarchaeology/

5) ** For those interested in my bead research, I've written a couple of blog posts basically summarizing it (more accessible than my thesis itself). based on public presentations I've given from my thesis research

https://bonesstonesandbooks.com/2017/05/16/little-glass-time-machines-sexwawin-and-the-bohemian-blown-glass-beads/

https://bonesstonesandbooks.com/2017/07/20/part-2-updates-on-the-little-glass-time-machines-sexwamin-and-the-bohemian-blown-glass-beads/

6) And as a final, general addition - supporting women's voices in archaeology is important to me (the importance of representation is something I talk about quite a bit), so here's a collection of women archaeologists doing some work they're proud of https://bonesstonesandbooks.com/2018/01/04/celebrating-the-women-of-archaeology-2017-edition/
