 Antiquity, Past Antiquity: Clarke Special Section - Introduction
The second of these particularly addressed the challenge of Jacquetta Hawkes, and introduced Clarke as a protagonist; although the more explicit statement of the new archaeology was an article by Richard Watson 'The "new archaeology" of the 1960s' published in ANTIQUITY in 1972, which drew a strong distinction between anthropological archaeology and classical archaeology.
The most memorable contribution to these debates was undoubtedly the one published 25 years ago by Clarke himself, 'Archaeology: the loss of innocence' (1973) [1].
'Archaeology: the loss of innocence' had an impact greater than its level of citation, and the current Editors [2] have invited five current practitioners of archaeological theory to comment on this seminal statement and, in turn, have asked one of David Clarke's pupils to comment on their appraisal, a form of open review.

 About the ACUA
Its genesis as the Council on Underwater Archaeology was in 1959 and its purpose was fully realized at a meeting in 1963 when a group of archaeologists, historians, and sport divers met in St. Paul, Minnesota for the first international Conference on Underwater Archaeology (CUA).
In 1970, the first papers on underwater archaeology were given at the then fledgling Society for Historical Archaeology conference.
By 1973, the present structure and name of the ACUA were established and shortly thereafter a merging of the SHA and CUA conferences.

 Archaeology, Industrial Archaeology and Computing Archaeology work of Dr John D. Wilcock
I have practised archaeology longer than Computing Science, so it was inevitable that I should apply my profession of Computing Science to archaeological problems.
I have carried out research in Computing Archaeology since 1968, and founded the research group in Computing Archaeology at North Staffordshire Polytechnic in 1974, which has produced about twenty PhDs in the discipline.
Members of the group were founder members of the Computer Applications in Archaeology Association in 1973, and this organisation continues to run the annual international conferences, now called Computer Applications and Quantitative Methods in Archaeology, members of the group now being in prominent positions in the organisation.

 Cotsen Institute of Archaeology Trowel Award
Giorgio Buccellati (founding Director of the Cotsen Institute of Archaeology 1973-1983) presents the Trowel to James Sackett in honor of his contributions as a scholar, Director of the Cotsen Institute (1983-1984), and continuing Chair of the Executive Committee.
But in a larger sense, we want to take to heart his teaching; we want to appropriate the values he has shown us over the years and shows us today with ever renewed freshness; we want to go to the heart of the matter rather than gawk at the mirage of fashion.
And so it is that, in the wake of his accomplishments, we resolve that archaeology as both an art and a science shall not perish from the earth.

The potential exists for computer networks not only to provide a remedy to these problems, but to allow yet another reconstruction of the discourse of archaeology itself (Renfrew 1973, Shanks and Tilley 1987).
It can also be seen from the results of the survey presented elsewhere that archaeologists are not yet in a position to harness this potential Kilbride 1994.
It would seem that the first of these is yet to be achieved, but the second continues apace.
