Dug to Death
'A tale of archaeological method and mayhem'.
Adrian Praetzellis, 2003 Altamira Press, Walnut Creek.
Well is it a spoof? Set in an excavation in Victoria, Central Otago undertaken by the University of Invercargill it is clearly fiction - but it is also a who-dunit and a primer on underaking excavations. Praetzellis has spent some time here so the local references are knowing. The New Zealand English glossary is a hoot.
Ian Barber has reviwed it in Archaeology in New Zealand.
