Bridging the Gap between Archaeology and the Physical SciencesF. Hayashida Department of Anthropology, Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA 16802, USA Abstract The collaboration between archaeologists and representatives of the physical sciences is often rendered difficult by differing training and expectations, poor mutual understanding, inconsistent terminologies, and a lack of time and willingness to bridge these gaps. In this paper some thoughts and suggestions on research design and interpretation in interdisciplinary studies are brought forth and suggestions towards a fruitful collaboration are made.
