'Living archaeology,' says Richard Gould, 'is ethnoarchaeology in the active voice'.Using as case studies his own observations of Australian Aborigines, and those of others, the author presents a unified theory of ethnoarchaeology. He demonstrates a reliable way to infer adaptive behavior in prehistoric communities by studying adaptive behavior in a contemporary society and noting the evidence of this behavior in material discards.Gould, R. A. is the author of 'Living Archaeology', published 1980 under ISBN 9780521299596 and ISBN 0521299594.
