28 July 2015A Critical View of Sir Arthur Evans
Although some reviewers have said that Macgillivray's book has been excessively critical of Sir Arthur Evans, I found his argument that Evans' restoration and interpretation of the Minoan palace at Knossos was mainly a result of Evans seeing what he wanted to see to be basically correct, Nor is he alone in this judgment.
3 March 2010The Roots of Modern Archeology
MacGillivray's study is a careful analysis of the work of Sir Arthur Evans.
24 August 2005Revenge of "Modern" Archaeology
Minotaur by Joseph MacGillivray
This book presents itself as a readable biography of one the great Archaeologists, Sir Arthur Evans, instead of a thoughtful biography the book is really a prolonged attack on Evans by an author of dubious credentials and makes for extremely painful reading.
12 October 2000Reception Theory and Victorian Psychosis by Example
Sandy MacGillivray's in depth analysis of the life and times of pioneer Cretan archaeologist Sir Arthur Evans was a pure joy to read.
