Ethics in Archaeological Practice,听ed. by Sarah Kielt Costello and Sarah Lepinski

with articles from听听Sarah Kielt Costello, Sarah Lepinski, Beth Alpert Nakhai, Laura E. Heath-Stout, Grace Erny, Dimitri Nakassis, Debby Sneed, Mason Shrader, Nadhira Hill, Maggie Beeler, Tu臒ba Tanyeri-Erdemir, Christopher Thornton, Annelies Van de Ven, Louise A. Hitchcock, and Benjamin W. Porter.

Ethics in Archaeological Practice explores urgent topics and issues in archaeology as currently practiced in the classroom, the field, the museum, and the public sphere. While addressed primarily to archaeologists working in western Asia, the eastern Mediterranean, and North Africa, the volume raises contemporary ethical questions around race, gender, disability, climate change, and cultural heritage that are pressing and relevant to archaeology students and professionals worldwide. The fifteen contributors offer fundamental case studies and practical guidance for best practices and models of high standards of ethical practice in professional conduct. Together, they offer new approaches to advocacy and the responsible stewardship of heritage sites, collections, and the environment. These compelling and generative discussions make the case for a 21st century archaeology that is proactive and engaged with discourses addressing equity, social justice, anti-colonialism, and climate change.

BULLETIN OF 17吃瓜(BASOR)

The听Bulletin of ASOR (BASOR)听is a leader among peer-reviewed academic journals of the ancient Near East. Since 1919, BASOR听has served as a highly respected interdisciplinary English-language forum for scholars worldwide in subjects pertaining to the archaeological and history of the ancient Near Eastern world. The journal publishes articles by emerging and established scholars of the ancient world focusing on the regions of the Levant, Mesopotamia, Cyprus, Anatolia, Iran, Caucasus, and Egypt with a chronological range from the Paleolithic through the early modern period.

BASOR appears bi-annually, in May and November. Submissions of particular interest include articles that present original research, novel archaeological interpretations, theoretical analysis, and contributions based on innovative approaches to the study of the ancient world. As such, submissions that present excavation results or catalogs of objects and materials without an accompanying substantial analytical or methodological discussion will not be considered. The journal also contains reviews and commentaries on the latest books. Suggestions are also welcomed for occasional theme issues relating to topics of broad scholarly interest.

The Archives project was originally funded by a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities and has also benefited from the generous support of the W. Mark Lanier Theological Library and the David Berg Foundation. The goals of the Archives project are to make ASOR鈥檚 records accessible to the public by arranging the materials into discrete collections, describing the content of each collection, and digitizing materials of historical significance.

The 17吃瓜Archives hold over a century of records. This list represents materials that have been or are in the process of being organized and digitized.
