Industrial archaeology is the study of early industrial buildings and machinery, particularly of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

This book discusses the aims and methods of the science, giving examples of the contribution which different kinds of specialists can make.

They also developed strong human and biblical associations, and the sight of a ewe with her lamb evoked the mother-an...
International Handbook of Historical Archaeology
In studying the past, archaeologists have focused on the material remains of our ancestors. Prehistorians generally have only artifacts to study and rely on the diverse material record for their understanding of past societies and their behavior. Those involved in studying historically documented cultures not only have extensive material remains but also contemporary texts, images, and a range of investigative technologies to enable them to build a broader and more reflexive picture of how past societies, communities, and individuals operated and behaved.
