Extract

In the July number of this journal Albert C. Spaulding delivered himself of a most penetrating review of the first of the authors’ 2 Anthropologist papers on method and theory in American archaeology. This note is in no sense a reply to his review but it seems to us that additional information about our paper and its subsequent history might prevent misunderstanding. Shortly after its publication in December, 1953, we received a long letter from Spaulding in which this paper and its authors were subjected to similar but even stronger criticism than in the review under discussion.
