Common References

Much of this blog comes from the research and writing that I am doing for my dissertation. Because of this, what you see written here typically:

  1. Uses a lot of references, and…
  2. Uses many of the same references repeatedly!

To keep my posts short, I’m posting my most common references here. “New” or more “unique” references for any given post will be listed in said post. For those who don’t already know, primary references are those which directly report historical or archaeological facts that are used in analysis, such as site reports (archaeology), newspapers (history), and oral testimonies (history). Secondary references are those which draw upon primary and other secondary literature to analyze and argue. I am including dissertations in secondary references, even though archaeological dissertations often contain “primary” data. To be honest, the primary/secondary distinction is, in my opinion, less important and a wee bit more arbitrary in archaeology than it is in history.
