Critically reading the theory and methods of archaeology : an introductory guide / Guy Gibbon.

• What kind of archaeology is it? -- What kind of investigation is it? -- What are the issue and the claim? -- What is the argument? -- What are the assumptions? -- Is the writing clear? -- Are (deceptive) rhetorical devices used? -- Is there a fallacy in the reasoning? -- Are there skeptical postmodern themes in the argument? -- Are facts clearly distinguished from opinions and other claims? -- How are the observations summarized? -- Is there an inductive argument? -- Is there a population estimate from a sample? -- Is there a theory in my reading? -- Which research program is my reading an example of? -- Is an explanation offered? -- Is there a causal argument? -- Are deductively valid conclusions drawn? -- Are concepts given archaeological interpretations? -- Are the conclusions reasonable?.
