    Alan Mayne is Professor of Social History and Public Policy at the University of South Australia, where he was formerly Director of the Hawke Research Institute for Sustainable Societies. His major publications include The Imagined Slum (Leicester University Press, 1993); The Archaeology of Urban Landscapes (Cambridge University Press, 2001), which he co-edited with Tim Murray; and Hill End: An Historic Australian Goldfields Landscape (Melbourne University Press, 2003). He has worked collaboratively with historical archaeologists in North America, Australasia, and South Africa for seventeen years. He is currently working on Aboriginal resilience in Australian Outback communities, and urban disadvantage and social policy in India. This essay has benefited from conversations over the years with many researchers, among them Mary Beaudry, Greg Dening, Dan Hicks, Rhys Isaac, Grace Karskens, Susan Lawrence, Tim Murray, Adrian Praetzellis, and Rebecca Yamin. I would especially like to thank Judy King for her detailed comments and suggestions.

  • Descrição: Mayne discusses the international development of historical archaeology, explains its overlaps with history, and assesses its contributions to cross-disciplinary historical analysis. Although claims for its significance have conventionally been grounded in arguments that material evidence provides a tangible bridge to hidden histories unrecorded by documentary evidence, he argues that these claims do not stand up to rigorous scrutiny. He suggests that because historical anthropology provides a firm basis for a transdisciplinary analysis of the past, it should be recognized and utilized by more historians.
