The material remains of the past include not just ‘material culture’ like monuments and pottery but also biological remains such as bones, seeds, soils, and ancient DNA. Archaeology is the study of things abandoned, discarded or buried by past generations, and as all human societies leave material traces of their passing, archaeology uses these to address what it means to be human over the full four million years of human history and with a global perspective. Though usually fragmentary and affected by many biases of survival, the archaeological record bears witness to the entirety of the human past at local, national, and international scales, from the actions of individuals to the great revolutions of human prehistory and history.

  • 2004–2005 I Am Delighted to Present This My First Annual Report As Director of the Mcdonald Institute
    McDonald Institute for Archaeological Research Annual Report 2004–2005 I am delighted to present this my first Annual Report as Director of the McDonald Institute. In 2004–2005 the Institute has continued its dual role of facilitating the research of Cambridge's extraordinarily diverse archaeological community, and of attracting outstanding new talent to maintain the process of intellectual renewal and questioning that is the hallmark of a world-class research activity. The Report conveys the very wide range of projects and individual research being supported by the Institute, in the laboratory and in the field. The estab- lishment of a new laboratory for isotope research (to investigate a wide variety of problems of diet and migration using chemical signatures in skeletons), with the appointment of Dr Tamsin O'Connell as a Wellcome Trust Fellow, is a par- ticularly significant addition to the Institute's research portfolio. Our publications have continued to include major excavation monographs that have set a gold standard of quality for the discipline, the third volume on Professor Ian Hodder's excavations of the famous Neolithic settlement of Çatalhöyük in Turkey breaking new ground with its combination of hard copy text and an accompanying CD with specialist data. Meanwhile, throughout the year the building has hummed with research meet- ings of every kind from set-piece conferences to ad hoc meetings of graduate students, one of the typically stimulating occasions I attended being Richard Klein's 'masterclass' debate with graduate
