  John Patrick Hale: Archaeology
According to Vincent Gaffney, archaeology is "the study of past societies in their entirety, from the analysis of their cultural and environmental remains, and through the inferences which may legitimately deduced from such remains" (1995:371-2).
Since the focus of archaeology is past societies and on cultural and environmental remains, it follows that the vast majority of archaeological data is temporally and spatially referenced.
According to Savage (1990), landscape archaeology is the "study of spatial relationships among humans and their physical, social and cognitive environments" (29).

 Cornelius Holtorf: Archaeology: a trendy subject   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Archaeology is now often presented as being about managing ancient sites or artifacts as non-renewable resources, and rescuing precious finds and evidence, in a race against time, from obliteration due to modern development.
In each case, it appears that the meaning of archaeology in society is more to do with metaphors and stereotypes than with literal truth about the past (see also chapter 5).
Julian Thomas, Professor of Archaeology at the University of Manchester, argued in his book Archaeology and Modernity (2004) that the discipline of archaeology is intrinsically linked to a modernist worldview.

 ROCK ART & PETROGLYPHS: Rupestrian Archaeology
The term Rupestrian archaeology was coined in Val Camonica in 1989 to indicate the need to treat the study of "rock art" as an archaeological discipline, on par with other branches.
In recent years the study of rock imagery has seen changes in techniques and analytical procedures: besides the traditional chronological approaches, direct dating methods have also been introduced in Europe and elsewhere.
This poster (*) should be considered a sort of critical addenda of Rupestrian Archaeology, a booklet printed in 1990(1).

Among them is the Monticello Plantation Archaeological Survey, a multidisciplinary initiative designed to reveal trajectories of change in settlement and land use on Thomas Jeffersons Albemarle County plantation, along with their ecological, economic, and social causes and consequences.
Monticello's archaeology department is also home to the Digital Archaeological Archive of Comparative Slavery, a collaborative venture that uses the web to facilitate sharing and comparative analysis of fine-grained archaeological data from sites occupied by enslaved Africans and their descendents in North America and the Caribbean.
