Archaeology is a field of study that focuses on the material remains of past human cultures. It is a sub-discipline of anthropology, and is closely related to other fields such as history, art history, and classics. Archaeology is a popular subject for science books, as it provides an opportunity to explore the past and gain insight into the lives of ancient peoples. Archaeology books often focus on specific topics, such as the history of a particular region or culture, the development of a particular type of technology, or the study of a particular archaeological site. They may also provide an overview of the field of archaeology, or discuss the methods and techniques used in archaeological research. Many books also include photographs and illustrations to help readers visualize the sites and artifacts discussed. The archaeology market for science books is highly competitive, with a wide range of publishers offering books on the subject. Popular publishers include Oxford University Press, Cambridge University Press, Routledge, and Harvard University Press. Other publishers, such as Thames & Hudson, Bloomsbury, and Princeton University Press, also offer books on archaeology. Show Less Read more
