The Place of Graffiti Studies in Archaeology
In the last decade or so, the study of historic graffiti has entered the archaeological mainstream. A significant number of buildings and even whole counties have active surveys ongoing; lectures, workshops, day schools and conferences are widespread; press stories, articles and books are frequently published.
However, what does all of this mean? Why are we now so broadly focused on what had, until recently, been an obscure niche subject. This lecture looks at the wider cultural meanings of historic graffiti in context.
