| contents | <div> <div> <p>This article explores the relationship between professional archaeology and forms of serious research that can be construed as pseudoarchaeology. It focusses on the case study of Homeric Ithaca, which touches on the origins of classical archaeology. It asks how academics should deal with pseudoarchaeology in an age when scientific knowledge is openly questioned. Rather than ignore or ridicule serious, informed attempts at research into subjects like Homeric Ithaca, professional archaeologists should explain better why they do not consider a text such as the <em>Odyssey</em> a suitable source to provide meaning to material remains.</p> </div> </div> |
