As the contributors to this well-edited book make clear the process of splitting up and classifying the material record of constantly changing life is still a highly controversial and theoretical one. Some of the papers discuss how typologies are created to split one type of stone tool from another. Another paper focuses on the classification of landscape units examining issues such as the identification of sites' during intensive survey. Such different fields of enquiry (imposing order on time', space' and material') are pulled together by a great introduction which defines the problem and suggests theoretical ways of approaching it.
