Obviously -

Real Historical Archaeology should be centered in  History Departments,
where students are as well grounded in documentary  analysis as they are in
material culture analysis, and can become equally  capable of exploiting the
strengths of each method in their  investigations.

Anthropology, obviously, as the focus is on human behavior, and those  passed 
over by history, not the members of society wealthy enough to go to  school, 
sit around and think and write, and provide secure long term storage for  what 
they produce. History, as they say, is written by the winnners - not people  
who objectively chronicle what they see. There was much debate on this in the  
60s and 70s...
