Descriptive Statements, Covering Laws, and Theories in Archaeology [and Comments and Reply]
The paradigm for explanation in archaeology presented by the "new archaeologists" is reviewed and shown to need further elaboration. It is argued that that presentation has overemphasized the form of explanatory arguments and insufficiently considered their content. Not all explanatory arguments provide intuitively satisfactory explanations of particular observations. Instead, intuitively satisfactory explanations require general theories which s…
A Few Remarks on Whallon's 'A New Approach to Pottery Typology
Some implicit assumptions in Whallon's mathematically rigorous method for reproducing Ritchie's traditional Owasco pottery typology are pointed out, and some of the 'validity limits' of his conclusions are discussed
Construction of a Deductive Model by Simulation of a Traditional Archaeological Study
This article is based on 2 observations. First, I note the quality of certain traditional archaeological studies, focusing on evaluation of results obtained and of information used. Second, I observe the incoherence of many of the constructions of 'analytical' archaeologists, who sometimes naively imagine that it is possible to substitute sophisticated algorithms for analysis of the logic and archaeological meaning of problems in prehistory.The g…
Reply to the ‘comments on computers in archaeology’
Formal procedures and the use of computers in archaeology
It is well known that the introduction of rigorous semiological and mathematical methods is the necessary condition of the coherent application of computers to archaeology. The aim of this article is simply to emphasize two less obvious aspects of present research trends: (1) The different phases of archaeological work, at which the new methods are introduced, are interdependent. The solution adopted at each level — information retrieval, descrip…
