"The authors build upon Robert Dunnell's 1978 evolutionary
definition of the term and demonstrate decisively that style and
function are theoretically distinct as well as critical to
evolutionary archaeology....The insightful papers in this volume
should encourage students and professionals alike who are
frustrated by the current state of disarray in archaeological
theory. This collection will be influential in keeping Robert
Dunnell's vision of an evolutionary archaeology alive and in
stimulating further exploration of the fundamental dichotomy of
style and function."-William S. Dancey Associate Professor of
Anthropology Ohio State University
