A characteristically well-informed, erudite chapter by Margarita Díaz-Andreu reviews the development of archaeological theory in Gilman's American and British education and Iberian-American career. This luxurious book is composed mainly of papers delivered at a session in honor of distinguished Hispano-American archaeologist Antonio Gilman at the 2018 European Association of Archaeologists annual meeting in Barcelona.
