This introduction to the archaeology of the Islamic world traces the history of the discipline from its earliest manifestations through to the present and evaluates the contribution made by archaeology to the understanding of key aspects of Islamic culture. The author argues that it is essential for the results of archaeological research to be more fully integrated into the wider historical study of the Islamic world. His organisation of the book into broad themes allows a focus on issues that are relevant across different regions and periods, and the broad geographical scope reflects the main focus of archaeological work in the Islamic world to the present day.

Marcus Milwright is British Academy Global Professor at the University of York. His research interests include Islamic art and archaeology and the study of traditional crafts. He is the author of The Queen of Sheba s Gift: A History of the True Balsam of Matarea (2022)
