Prähistorische Archäologie

This volume systematically introduces the fundamental concepts and methods of prehistoric archaeology. Taking into account the history of research, it develops the structure and epistemological prerequisites of a discipline whose sources consist mainly of non-written remains. The concepts and methods discussed here for the first time in a comprehensive manner are not only of central importance for the study of prehistory and early history but also for archaeology as a whole.

For this fourth edition, the established standard work has been revised and updated once again.
