Description

This volume is the result of a session dedicated to exploring the concept of identity in archaeology, held during the 2023 European Association of Archaeologists congress in Belfast. Drawing from the papers presented during this session, it brings together 12 chapters around a key objective: a methodological toolbox for the study of identity in archaeology.

The ambition is not just to compile a series of case studies, but rather to demonstrate how archaeologists can effectively employ these tools to analyse and address identity-related questions through material remains. By focusing on method and approach, this book aims to go beyond individual examples, offering practical insights and frameworks applicable across diverse archaeological contexts. It serves as a guide to understanding how identities can be reconstructed and interpreted within the archaeological record, ensuring a rigorous, method-driven approach to this complex and evolving subject in archaeological research.
