Testimonials

“It takes thousands of words to describe archeological events accurately and one Matrix to embody the knowledge.”

“Without the Harris matrix we cannot dig! I'm passing this on to the next generation of archaeologists.”

“Principles of Archeological Stratigraphy is an outstanding book, and I am very glad to have a copy to use in my work!”

“I have always used the principles of the Harris Matrix in my excavations, and this is a perfect opportunity to have this seminal book in a format I can use, abuse, and distribute without the risk of losing it.”

“As archaeologist working in the field, Principles of Archeological Stratigraphy is one of the fundamental books for archeological excavation.”

“El Principios de Estratigrafía Arqueológica es un libro clásico de consulta recurrente que contento de tener ahora en mi biblioteca.”

“The Harris Matrix is an indispensable tool in archaeological excavations.”

“I started a degree in archaeology at 47, and now my favorite pursuit is excavation and landscape recording. As I draw and record sites, The Harris Matrix is invaluable to my post-excavation analysis.”

“I’m preparing classes for high school students about archaeologic stratigraphy. Principles of Archeological Stratigraphy is difficult to get here, but the book remains a great resource for these students that I can now access online.”

“I'm interested in having a copy of your works, milestones of archaeology, to better integrate stratigraphic principles in my research and in my excavations”

“I am very intrigued by your work with the creation of the Harris Matrix and its impact on the archaeological world that it continues to have.”

“I have read/used Principles of Stratigraphy since 2014, a very essential book.”

“I'm giving an introductory course about prehistoric archaeology: the famous Harris Matrix is part of the curriculum.”

“I am excavating a small cave in NW Turkey and I'd like to use Harris Matrix for that.”

“Thank you very much for making your book available. I am using it to create the stratigraphical sequence for my excavation in China.”

“The Harris Matrix has become an essential tool in my understanding and interpretation of archaeological stratigraphy. Its systematic approach to organizing complex site data has been invaluable in my research, and I greatly appreciate the clarity it brings to the discipline.”

“The professor mentioned your book as one of the most influential in the field: I want to improve my knowledge so I am requesting this book.”

“I am a practicing archaeologist, currently writing a reading module on archaeological survey and excavation methods.”

“I need to brush up on Principles for excavations, as the California Energy Commission has recommended Harris Matrix for the recording of historical features.”

“I'm starting to have a real passion about the Harris Matrix, and the ways I can construct, identify and interpret one! It's really like a fun puzzle, which brings me a great sense of accomplishment upon completion!”

“Mi interés radica en que la Matriz de Harris es muy importante para la excavación arqueológica, para poder organizar los estratos y llegar a una mejor comprensión de lo que se está realizando al momento de excavar y al analizar los datos.”

“I want to increase my knowledge of stratigraphy in order to get a better understanding of approaches to fieldwork.”

“Working in a binational project, the Harris Matrix allows me to explain an archaeological sequence without any language barriers.”

“Part of my program is doing fieldwork and they typically want us to put stratigraphic layers into a Harris Matrix.”

“I am a practicing researcher and lecturer in archaeology, particularly in archaeological field methods. This reference would be very useful in teaching and application of archaeological excavation and recording.”
