Abstract

[Although our topic—the development of research design in urban historical archaeology—would seem to be somewhat academic, it turns out to be a rather personal story. Reading up on the history of ideas in archaeology (e.g., Trigger, 1989), one might get the impression that the process of change has been largely an intellectual matter of dueling articles and influential symposia. And no doubt these things have played their role. This chapter, however, begins with the rest: the idiosyncratic, often random forces, as well as the personal preferences, that came together to create an approach to urban historical archaeology in California.]
