Martin Carver is Emeritus Professor of Archaeology at the University of York, editor of the journal Antiquity, and the author of Archaeological Investigation (Routledge, 2009). He has undertaken or advised on field projects in England, Scotland, Sweden, France, Italy, and Algeria, including numerous commercial projects and major research campaigns at Sutton Hoo and Portmahomack.

Who wants archaeology? Who should pay for it? Who should do it? And how? Making Archaeology Happen is an attempt to answer these questions - campaigning for a more liberated, imaginative and productive field profession.
