Have found a few titles on my own:
Not sure how they compare or if there may be more recent titles
that are more informative with great pictures of excavated items
from the archeological record.
These titles I found seem intriguing have no access to them so far.
Have not reviewed them, so no disrespect to the authors is intended.
