For example, let's take a look at Antiquity Volume 33, published in 1959. It's a journal from which you could generally expect the strictest Cambridge orthodoxy, it's hard to think of something that could be embody "mainstream archeology" more than that. So what were they excitedly talking about right around that time? Besides the usual Classic Antiquity fare:
>the excavation of "Earliest Jericho", an urban site even older than the previous layer dated circa 6000 BC
>Nuraghic Sardinia (the author would soon write whole books on the "Neolithic civilization of Sardinia")
>advanced shipping in predynastic Egypt (early Gerzean culture)
>the restoration of Stonehenge and related excavations
>the early spread of copper-working from the Near East to Europe
>a review of the 1957 book "The Natufian culture" and discussion of the Mesolithic and pre-pottery Neolithic in the Near-East
