Description
The common feature of landscape archaeology is its diversity – of method, field location, disciplinary influences, and contemporary voices. The contributors to this volume take advantage of these many strands to investigate landscape archaeology in its multiple forms, focusing primarily on the link to heritage, the impact on our understanding of temporality, and the situated theory that arises out of landscape studies.
Using examples from New York to Northern Ireland, Africa to the Argolid, these pieces capture the human significance of material objects in support of a more comprehensive, nuanced archaeology.
Envisioning Landscape offers a unique perspective on how we interpret the past through the landscapes that surround us, providing invaluable insights into the connections between human activity and the natural environment over time.
