Working in conflict and post-conflict environments presents a number of distinctive challenges for archaeologists. Elements of archaeological practice that are usually thought of as reasonably routine (such as safety), can become extremely problematic. Meanwhile the aspects of archaeological work that are generally understood to be problematic, such as the recovery of human remains and working with indigenous communities, are imbued with even greater significance and risk. Archaeologies of violence transform critical practices from an intellectual exercise into a practical necessity. In this context it is reasonable to argue that archaeologies of violence require a uniquely comprehensive and critical approach to ethics. In this chapter we review some crucial topics that will be discussed throughout the volume, such as types of violence, temporality, the relationship with communities and the general responsibilities of archaeologists working in conflict zones.
