Below are some of the references from my seminar in historical archaeology
that have/purport to have an international or global perspective. Drs. Wall
and Rothschild didn't indicate if they were looking for review articles or
archaeological ethnography-type publications, and I suspect it is both.
After deleting those items of overlap with previous posts, many of these are
overviews. I've added brief commentary as time allowed:
Adams, William Hampton. 1976 Silcott, Washington: Ethnoarchaeology of a
Rural American Community. Department of Anthropology, Washington State
University, Pullman.
>This is one of the best examples of a multi-scalar analysis with attention to
both globalization and localization.

Patterns of Change in Ironbridge Gorge. Routledge Press, New York.
Andren, Andres 1998(?) Between Artifacts and Texts: Historical
Archaeology in Global Perspective. Kluwer Academic / Plenum Publishers, New
York.
>Others have commented on this, and my strongest feeling after using the book in
seminar became "simply referring to Classical Archaeology as Historical
Archaeology presents a number of intellectual problems."
