Archaeology from Every Angle
Papers in Honor of Richard L. Zettler
Edited by Katherine Blanchard Edited by Yelena Rakic Edited by Paul Zimmerman
Archaeology from Every Angle brings together a wide range of scholars whose work has been influenced by Richard Zettler’s career in Near Eastern archaeology. The volume includes work from various archaeological specialties including ceramics, small finds, seal impressions, mortuary practice, social identity, and zooarchaeology. Several contributors provide broader overviews of sites, architecture, and landscape features. Chronologically, this book spans the 5th millennium BCE through the Iron Age in the Near East. The breadth of the contributions to this book speak to the lasting and far-reaching impact Zettler has had on the field. Archaeology from Every Angle does what it says and brings together disparate topics and scholars to form a volume in honor of an archaeologist with a long and storied career.
