An important area of the growing science of modern archeology is the field of experimental archeology.  This comprehensive reader on the subject describes the application of experimental methods in the areas of data collection, description, interpretation, and explanation - in short, in all levels of archeological research.  "Experimental Archeology" includes eighteen articles, many of them original, and an introduction, which address the question of how the archeologist can use observable present-day events or processes, or laboratory experiments, as aids to understanding past human behavior.  The articles are grouped into four parts, each dealing with a different aspect of experimental archeology: Replication of Technology and Discovery of Function ~ Experiments with Quantitative Methods and Theory ~ The Site: After ~ Living Archeology.
