TODAY IN PHILOSOPHY OF HISTORY: Childe and the Archaeological Conception of Prehistory
Monday 14 April 2025 is the 134th anniversary of the birth of Vere Gordon Childe (14 April 1892 – 19 October 1957), better known to posterity as V. Gordon Childe, who was born in Sydney, Australia, 134 years ago on this date in 1892.
V. Gordon Childe was an archaeologist and prehistorian who contributed to the reconstruction of large swathes of the past that either preceded written history or which fell through the cracks of written history. The development of prehistory has been one of the great driving forces of the expansion of historical consciousness, and so has transformed our understanding of the past.
