Hello,

I am working on paper re: the interpretation of objects in
museums--specifically archaeological artifacts with limited provenience.

 I have read Susan Pearce's "Museums Objects and Collections" and have a
working knowledge of Panofsky, Fleming, Prown, Elliott and Pearce's models
for object study.  I have also read Karp and Lavine's "Exhibiting Cultures."

Can anyone recommend additional models, or sources for object study/object
interpretation? Can anyone recommend sources for the ethics concerned with
museum object interpretation?

Thank you
