This book provides a broad overview of the key concepts in public
archaeology, a research field that examines the relationship between
archaeology and the public, in both theoretical and practical terms. While
based on the long-standing programme of undergraduate and graduate teaching
in public archaeology at UCL’s Institute of Archaeology, the book also takes
into account the growth of scholarship from around the world and seeks to
clarify what exactly ‘public archaeology’ is by promoting an inclusive,
socially and politically engaged vision of the discipline.

Written for students and practitioners, the individual chapters provide
textbook-level introductions to the themes, theories and controversies that
connect archaeology to wider society, from the trade in illicit antiquities
to the use of digital media in public engagement, and point readers to the
most relevant case studies and learning resources to aid their further
study.
