The philosopher and the field archaeologist: Collingwood, Bersu and the excavation of King Arthur's Round Table
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 18 February 2014
Abstract
It is not generally known that a famous philosopher, Robin Collingwood, and an influential field archaeologist, Gerhard Bersu, excavated the same prehistoric monument in successive seasons. Their preoccupations differed, and their observations were completely inconsistent with one another. This paper relates the progress of that project and reflects on its implications for archaeological theory and practice.
