| Summary: | Includes bibliographical references and index. Open-air sites are difficult for researchers to locate and difficult to interpret; containing superimposed events often showing only the most recent. Overcoming limitations of data and poor preservation, using prior research and new analytical tools, and diverging from a one-size-fits-all interpretation, offers fresh insight into formation and taphonomy of open-air sites.--Provided by publisher.
