Texts and credits

The following texts complement the precise, detailed information provided by the photographs presented in this thematic catalogue. Some of them put the images into context showing the different phases of La Bastida’s occupation between 2200 and 1550 BCE and explaining what Argaric society was like; others highlight contributions these unprecedented graphic records to current research into the site; and finally, others show the importance of photography as a documentary technique in archaeology. An article on the Totana archaeological forgeries published in 1931 is also included.
