摘要:Archaeology isn¡¯t only about ancient things, or about special
things and places. Archaeology is¡ªand always has
been¡ªabout everyday objects and events. In July 2006
archaeologists from the University of Bristol and Atkins Heritage
¡°excavated¡± a recently abandoned 1991 Ford Transit.
Donated by the Ironbridge Gorge Museum World Heritage Site,
the van was first used by their archaeology department for eight
years, then by their works and maintenance crews for the next
seven years (Figure 1).
