Summary: | A Dan Josselyn Memorial Publication In 1958 Gordon R. Willey and Philip Phillips first published Method and Theory in American Archaeology --a volume that went through five printings, the last in 1967 at the height of what became known as the new, or processual, archaeology. The advent of processual archaeology, according to Willey and Phillips, represented a "theoretical debate . . . a question of whether archaeology should be the study of cultural history or the study of cultural process."
