| Thanks Harmonia. There are also various links collected on this page and here; particularly interesting I think is the discussion in the Online Journal in Public Archaeology, which can be read here. And of course Tera Pruitt's thesis: www.dspace.cam.ac.uk/handle/1810/241365 (the direct online access to the thesis doesn't seem to be working, but you can still download the thesis pdf with a right click; the document is 86 Mb). The entire chapter V (from page 177 of the pdf) is devoted to the case of the Bosnian "pyramids": QUOTE This case demonstrates how authority can be constructed, mimicked and performed by drawing on academic arenas of scientific practice and by eager public participation. Of particular interest are the part 5.3.5 The Politics of Experts and Expertise (page 188 of the pdf); 5.4 Performing Science: Gaining Authority Through Appropriate Performance (page 200); and 5.5 Authority from Science as a Master Discourse (page 216).
