520 0 _a"Lost City, Found Pyramid delves into the fascinating world of sensational "pseudoarchaeology," from perennial discoveries of lost pyramids or civilizations to contemporary ghost-hunting and reality TV. It examines how nonscientific pursuit of myths and legends warps both public perceptions of archaeology and of human history itself. A collection of twelve engaging and insightful essays, Lost City, Found Pyramid does far more than argue for the simple debunking of false archaeology. Rather, they bring into focus the value of understanding how and why pseudoarchaeology captures the public imagination. By comprehending pseudoarchaeology's appeal as a media product, cultural practice, and communication strategy, archaeologists can enhance and enliven how they communicate about real archaeology in the classroom and in the public arena."--Publisher.
