Tassie, G. J. Standards of Archaeological Excavation (190613717X)
This guide to best practice in excavations is designed with the specific demands of exavating in Egypt in mind. It promotes a holistic approach to excavation which moves away from Egyptology's traditional focus on monumental architecture and epigraphy, and aims to provide a set of methodologies and recording practices around which archaeologists working in Egypt can unite. It takes the archaeologist from site evaluation through to grid systems, methods of excavation for different context types, archiving, report writing and post-excavation assessment.
