Description
Summary:With a potential for knowledge – archaeological heritage management and knowledge production  In this article I discuss how we might achieve better knowledge production based on contract archaeology. I shortly account for how the understanding of archaeological data has changed throughout the history of archaeology, and how ideals of neutral and total documentation affect the collection of data and understanding of archaeological material as a source of knowledge. Further, I debate the limits and possibilities of knowledge production within the Norwegian model of archaeological heritage management and argue that rescue excavations should be guided by specific research questions. At the end, I discuss whether the arrangement of sector fee for cultural heritage within the hydroelectric sector in Norway involves principles regarding financing and research which are worth transferring to the heritage management in general.
