I feel that I need to post the description of this discussion group again, for
the edification of our new members.
HISTARCH (Historical Archaeology)
Historical archaeology (a field largely devoted to the archaeology of European
expansion, and the archaeology of recent periods) is a developing discipline
in several parts of the world. HISTARCH is designed to facilitate
communication between people interested in such topics as New World Colonial
archaeology, material culture studies, military sites archaeology, industrial
archaeology, and, archaeological method and theory. We hope that contributors
will include both terrestrial and underwater researchers. We also encourage
contributions by specialists and students in related fields such as history,
ethnohistory, historical architecture, maritime studies, and art history. We
hope that users will find HISTARCH a convenient place to post announcements,
calls for papers, and reviews of current literature.
