Medical archaeologists and anthropologists are both interested in the cultural constructions of disease, healing and medicine, but the interpretative methods used by the two groups are often quite different and interdisciplinary discussion is rare. The papers presented in this volume aim to bridge the disciplinary gap, to widen the field of interpretation, and to reconsider the cultural complexities of medical ideologies, beliefs and practices.
