These eleven papers, written by scholars renowned on both sides of the Atlantic, are taken from the XIVth Congress held at the University of Liege in 2001. With a broad range of backgrounds, opinions and experiences, the contributors bring unique and diverse perspectives to bear on the issue of the relationship between American and European archaeology and archaeologists.
