DESCRIPTION:This paper will explore the impact of geography in the product
 ion\, consumption and circulation of knowledge. The analysis will be divid
 ed into two major subjects: the geographies of production and reception. T
 he questions to be asked are\, on the one hand\, whether it matters where 
 archaeological knowledge is produced and whether the archaeologists’ loc
 ations can influence the content and nature of their scientific production
  and have an effect on the national and international networks they form. 
 On the other hand\, an assessment will be made of the existing conditions 
 and means by which the transmission of knowledge takes place and whether t
 his affects reception. These different approaches will lead us to a discus
 sion about the perception of academic authority and credibility. These iss
 ues will be discussed in the context of the relationship between Spanish a
 nd British archaeology in the twentieth century\n
