Images Of The Past

This well illustrated, full-color, site-by-site survey of prehistory captures the popular interest, excitement, and visual splendor of archaeology as it provides insight into the research, interpretations, and theoretical themes in the field. The new edition maintains the authors' innovative solutions to two central problems of the course: first, the text continues to focus on about 80 sites, giving students less encyclopedic detail but essential coverage of the discoveries that have produced the major insights into prehistory; second, it continues to be organized into essays on sites and concepts, allowing professors complete flexibility in organizing their courses.

I had to buy this book for a college anthropology class. I actually ended up liking it. For a textbook it's pretty nice. Definitions of key terms on the sides of pages, and the sections are broken into archaeological sites or key concepts, not just a timeline. Good fit for my World Prehistory class.

The book arrived quickly and it was in the condition described.The price was great considering that there was only one edition that is more recent.

I wasn't expecting a great quality but was totally surprised at the good shape it was in. There was no signs of usage. Would definitely recommend!

Taking online course and needed the book. It was just like new, all pages intact. Maybe just a few bends in the cover that's it.

This is a great book and got her quickly.

Everything showed up in great shape

The book was in great condition.

Good deal. Needed for school
