 Lewis Binford
Lewis Roberts Binford (born 1930) is an American archaeologist, known as the leader of the "New Archaeology[?]" movement of the 1960s.
Binford's contribution to archaeology was as much on the theoretical as on the practical side.
He advocated the concept of processualism, which argued that no site could be truly understood without an understanding of how it had been created, the corollary being that any excavation or archaeological investigation should begin with a theory against which the evidence could be tested.

 Archaeology
But although archaeology uses extensively the methods, techniques, and results of the physical and biological sciences, it is not a natural science; some consider it a discipline that is half science and half humanity.
Archaeology proper began with an interest in the Greeks and Romans and first developed in 18th-century Italy with the excavations of the Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum.
The development of scientific archaeology in 19th-century Europe from the antiquarianism and treasure collecting of the previous three centuries was due to three things: a geological revolution, an antiquarian revolution, and the propagation of the doctrine of evolution.

 "Archaeology and the Patriarchs" by Robert I Bradshaw
The science of Biblical Archaeology owes it existence to a plethora of scholars from many nations (including America, Britain, France, Germany and Israel) who have painstakingly worked at recovering and reconstructing the relics of the past.

 Acts And Archaeology
On the other hand, if Acts is historically reliable, and thus probably having been written within the perimeters of the orthodox view, sometime in the latter part of the first century, the archaeological evidence should support this thesis.
In other words, although the book of Acts is not primarily concerned with history qua history, or in and of itself, it is nonetheless accurate when it comments upon historical events or issues that lay within its purview.
This is especially true in our case when the text of Acts has been variously assumed to have erred, but has proven time and time again that it was not in err, but in fact, possessed correct and extremely precise data.

Their book, Method and Theory in American Archaeology, was largely an attempt to systematize and give common meanings to terms describing the recurrent patterning of artifacts in space and time, which up to then had been inconsistently used by Americanists throughout the U.S. and elsewhere.

 Euro-Tag. The Theoretical Archaeology Group Conference.
Undoubtedly the biggest attraction of the whole conference was the Tag debate and its participants, Lewis Binford, Colin Renfrew, Cristopher Tilley and John Barret who understandably drew a large audience.
The last day of the Conference was dedicated to a discussion of the world-wide current situation of archaeological theory drawing case studies from Africa, Indonesia, Japan, Latin America, China, etc. The rising importance of Iberian archaeology was made clear through a full session assigned to it.
It definetely sets a trend which emphasizes the Iberian peninsula’s growing and increasing importance both as a research area and as a potential producer of a new generation of archaeologists.

 The Crescent Bay Hunt Club Site: Oneota in Southeast Wisconsin
It has been suggested that the Oneota were the descendants, migrants or a cultural derivation of the Middle Mississippians in the Central Mississippi Valley (Gibbon 1972; Hall 1962: 5; Overstreet 1976: 30).
Regardless of whether the cause of the change was local or external, we do know that circa A.D. people in Wisconsin begin to adopt a new set of material culture attributes, which we can identify as Oneota.
Louise Lambert (2000) showed that the Crescent Bay Hunt Club data rank 59 on Hall's (1962) scraper/point index (the number of scrapers divided by the number of points multiplied by 100), which is expected for Developmental Horizon sites (Boszhardt and McCarthy 1999; Overstreet 1997).
