Histories of Labor in Archaeology | Bulletin of the History of Archaeology
archaeologybulletin.orgThe Bulletin of the History of Archaeology (BHA) was inaugurated over 20 years ago as a forum to exchange research, information on on-going projects, and resources devoted to a growing interest in the histories of archaeology. As this interest has grown, BHA has become global in reach, and has taken an increasingly expansive definition of its subject matter and its place within wider historical contexts. To this end, the journal publishes research not only on the histories of archaeology strictly defined, but also on the subject as it intersects with related histories like those of collecting, colonialism, exploration, fieldwork, heritage, and museums. At the same time, BHA is particularly focused on building interdisciplinary collaborations, and publishes work that takes its methodological cues from fields including anthropology and historical anthropology, archaeology, art history, colonial and postcolonial studies, gender studies, global history, and the history, philosophy, and sociology of science.
Wow, that last article was really interesting. I’d always heard legends of the unionization attempts in the 90s, cool to have the context of a zine by and for field techs from that time. I’ll have to spend some time on my next day off going through the archives (ten ten-hour days in a row, but apparently still not enough to be considered a “professional” archaeologist, let alone get health insurance!)
