    Abstract: Abstract: While it may be overkill to say that studying war is hell, it is certainly problematic. To participants, war is chaos, death and boredom and hence incommunicable.

And despite entrenched traditions to the contrary, war cannot be comprehended in isolation from society. To better understand the complex relationships between war and society, the two dozen contributors to this volume employ a broad variety of archaeological and anthropological tools, drawing where appropriate on history, political science and philosophy.

Conceptions of Warfare in Western Thought and Research; Warfare and pre-State Societies; Warfare and the State; Warfare, Rituals, and Mass Graves; Warfare, Discourse, and Identity; Warfare, Weaponry, and Material Culture; Index. - This book deals with the interrelationship between society and war seen through the analytical eyes of anthropologists and archaeologists. War is a ghastly thing, which unfortunately thrives almost everywhere in the world today. We need, therefore, to have a better understanding of what war does to people and their societies. War produces change, and archaeologists and anthropologists are analytically equipped to pinpoint its direction, patterning, scale and content. The perspective - and filter - of time provides one important tool, while context and comparison provide other tools. Looking at

To scholars who do not know the smell of gunpowder, war is mediated by silent artefacts and layered discourse. They must muster compassion without letting it distort analysis.

To better understand the complex relationships between war and society, the two dozen contributors to this volume employ a broad variety of archaeological and anthropological tools, drawing where appropriate on history, political science and philosophy. The chapters are grouped under several heads, each prefaced by a helpful introduction. Topics include the theoretical conceptions of war in various disciplines; war in pre-state societies, and its relation to state formation; ritual war and mass graves; ancient weaponry and material culture; and warfare, discourse and identity. The examples range from ancient Fiji to contemporary Croatia, and from Gilgamesh to The Terminator. The conundrum of war resists solution. But with a generous mix of theoretical argument and dramatic case study, Warfare and Society has something for anyone, academic or amateur, who would wrestle with it.
