history of archaeology

Christopher Hawkes and networks in British and European archaeology

M. Diaz-Andreu (Durham University, UK)

Christopher Hawkes (1905-1992) was a key figure in the development of Iron Age studies in Britain in the middle decades of the 20th century. The analysis of his correspondence reveals his connections to several communities of interest within archaeology and helps to understand better the development of British archaeology especially in the years after World War II.
