Ethics in Archaeological Practice focuses on the ethics of archaeological work in a European context.
This book covers all aspects of the archaeological profession, including archaeological advisors employed by state national or regional heritage agencies, commercial archaeologists (consultants and contractors) and academics. It considers all archaeologists as professionals and situates ethical practice at the heart of what it means to be a professional archaeologist. It works as a practical handbook organised around the main areas of activity that archaeologists undertake allowing the book to be used as a reference work when required.
Ethics in Archaeological Practice will appeal to professional archaeologists, academics and students, as well as those involved in professional training.
