{"product_id":"more-than-just-numbers-irene-schrufer-kolb-9781887829915","title":"More Than Just Numbers?: The Role of Science in Roman Archaeology","description":"Unlike prehistory, the Roman period offers a wealth of archaeological evidence for investigation, with the additional benefit of written sources. It is therefore easy to underestimate the new information that can be obtained from employing scientific methods to complement traditional archaeological research. Results do not always receive the broad attention they deserve or are not as easily accessible to the non-scientist archaeological community as they could be. This book, part of the International Roman Archaeology Conference series, presents a range of case studies from Italy and the provinces that open a fresh debate between science-based and humanities-based archaeologists. Contributions share a common methodological thread in that the application of scientific methods in each case answers research questions that traditional archaeology alone could not. Two additional reviews one from a scientific point of view, the other by a Romanist debate the contribution of science to Roman archaeology from two different angles.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Irene Schrufer-Kolb\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1887829911\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781887829915\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Journal of Roman Archaeology\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 191\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.60d","brand":"Irene Schrufer-Kolb","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48623329476863,"sku":"9781887829915","price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/more-than-just-numbers-irene-schrufer-kolb-9781887829915","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
