C Controversies about archaeology and controversies over archaeological finds abound. This book presents a selection of the most widely known contro- versies, drawing from them an explanation of scientific method and examples of critical thinking. Neither an exercise in debunking nor a promoter of pet theo- ries, it aims to steer readers along a path between academic dogma and outré enthusiasms. At this level of the general reader or undergraduate student, it is valuable to present something of the range of controversies encountered around a variety of archaeological topics. To go into depth on every example would exhaust the reader, so I have given more space to illustrative cases, and for others I’ve noted accessible sources that can be pursued by interested readers (and students doing term papers). Had I simplified the subject entirely, focusing chapters on only one or two cases and omitting an indication of the range, I would have made this “Controversies for Dummies.” Learning about the much-ballyhooed famous finds should be intriguing to general readers, and students will, I hope, talk with their instructors for further details and analysis. In my own teaching, I’ve looked for textbooks that give a range of examples on the topics under examination, freeing me to discuss ones I find particularly significant. These may include my own research (as I use it in this book), and if the textbook offers a satisfactory range, the cases I choose to expound on can be related to the breadth of the topic. Overall, this book is designed to encourage continuing pleasure in the fascinating world of archaeology and its practitioners, while enhancing readers’ discrimination between empirical data and speculation. 9 ALICE BECK KEHOE—CONTROVERSIES IN ARCHAEOLOGY I thank Mitch Allen, publisher and experienced archaeologist, for inviting me to write this book, and for his careful review of the manuscript. Carol Leyba was a thoroughly pleasant and professional production editor. Mitch and I teach undergraduates, and this is the level I write for; hence, this book does not discuss disciplinary controversies over whether X was an archaic state or a chiefdom, or what sampling strategy will yield adequate data— Professor Phuddy Duddy can write about professional debates. We hope all the US (Uncertain Students—thanks, Tim Pauketat) out there will enjoy the book, and find archaeology as intriguing as we do. 10 I NTRODUCTION hy should there be controversies in archaeology? Isn’t archaeology a sci- W ence? Surely, we would suppose, intelligent use of the scientific method will produce valid knowledge of our past. Science is like a rock held firmly to earth by

    Journal of Scientifi c Exploration, Vol. 27, No. 1, pp. 130–146, 2013 0892-3310/13 BOOK REVIEW Controversies in Archaeology by Alice Beck Kehoe. Walnut Creek, CA: Left Coast Press, 2008. 256 pp. $29.95. ISBN 978-1598740615. Anthropologist/archaeologist Alice B. Kehoe not only has a solid record of empirical research and scholarly publication but is also known for her critiques of American archaeology and archaeologists (notably, Kehoe 1998, in which she does not shrink from calling spades spades). Further, certain of her interests and ideas have involved some of the most contentious topics in the fi eld. Thus, she is a “natural” as author of a book on Controversies in Archaeology. This particular volume is aimed at college-level courses but is also informative for a broader audience. It tells much more than what is or has been controversial; it gives extended glimpses of many general changes that have occurred in anthropology’s subfi eld of archaeology over the past half-century or more. Numerous case studies are provided. A major point is that differing values and presuppositions among archaeologists and others commonly lead to differing and often confl icting interpretations of the data and even to divergent opinions as to what data are looked for and at. In her opening chapter, “The Past Is Today,” she states, “The fun part of science is fi nding unexpected data and proposing an explanation that startles people” (p. 11). Although not true for conventional scholars who stodgily confi ne themselves to mainline, non-controversial investigation, the excitement of unusual data and paradigm-shaking interpretations does provide spice for many more adventurous scholars (a few of whom, it must be acknowledged, have overreached).

    Nature and Antiquities: The Making of Archaeology in the Americas. Philip L. Kohl, Irina Podgorny, and Stefanie Gänger, eds. Tuscan: University of Arizona Press, 2014. 248 pp.* Reviewed by Michael E. Smith This volume contains detailed historical studies of how scholars in the Americas—primarily Latin America—analyzed indigenous peoples and their material remains in the 19th century. To an archaeologist, the subtitle is misleading. The book is not about excavations and fieldwork (“archaeology”), but rather about objects: collections, collectors, and interpreters. The book’s main point, as stated in the introduction (by Gänger, Kohl, and Podgorny), is that early 19th century scholars had no established set of methods or concepts for analyzing ancient objects, and therefore had to draw on fields like geology, botany, and zoology for inspiration. This is presented as a novel and important insight, but I find it unsurprising. The early 19th century was the heyday of natural science in Europe, when today’s scientific specializations (e.g., geology, botany, archaeology, ecology) did not yet exist as separate disciplines. Scholars like Charles Darwin and Charles Lyell drew on all these fields in their research, and it does not seem at all surprising that similar processes operated in the early development of the sciences in the New World. In the first section, Miruna Achim writes about Samuel George Morton and New World skull collections; Joanne Pillsbury explores the role of images in 19th century geology and prehistory; and Máximo Farro details the work of 19th century Argentine natural historian Samuel Alexander Lafone Quevedo. Then Adam Sellen describes the work of the Camacho brothers of Campeche, Mexico, as collectors and museum owners; Gänger details the curiosity cabinet of Ana María Centeno in Peru; and Podgorny chronicles the Central American travels of naturalist and con man Joseph Charles Manó.
