Making Places in the Prehistoric World
Add to cart
US$ 42.95 (+ tax)
This book draws together research from around the world to explore settlement as culturally constructed place, process and practice. It addresses issues central to the study of prehistoric settlement including group memory, the transmission of ideology and the impact of mobility and seasonality on the construction of social identity. Building on these themes, the contributors point to new ways of understanding the relationship between settlement and landscape by replacing Capitalist models of spatial relations with more intimate histories of place. Of particular interest to students of archaeology, this book will also be of interest to researchers in cultural anthropology and geography.
