Reviews
'These rich and diverse papers examine landscape in archaeology from a variety of perspectives and in many different parts of the world. They include both valuable reviews of the history of landscape studies and thoughtful suggestions for directions for future research, especially through connections between landscape and time, identity, and politics. Envisioning Landscape will be of great interest to archaeologists, historians and geographers, and others concerned with the changing relationships between humans and the world they live in - past, present, and future.' Peter S. Wells, University of Minnesota 'This new volume in the One World Archaeology series is a significant addition to the field of landscape archaeology. Case studies and sites range from the icon (Historic Annapolis, the Tsodilo Hills) to the new and challenging (the Maze Prison, Northern Island). Its signal contribution lies in engaging with and interrogating formulations of landscape, even as it clears a space for exciting new approaches. This should be considered an essential work for library collections and university reading lists.'

Synopsis
The common feature of landscape archaeology is its diversity a 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., The common feature of landscape archaeology is its diversity - of method, field location, disciplinary influences and contemporary voices.

- a***n (818)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoFast ship, described as 'Very Good' and arrived in a strong packaging as a nice 'tight' copy with the author's signature too! Yes, there is a ding on the front top but it's a small thing for the bargain at best pricing at time of purchase! See photos! Great seller! Thank you!Jacques Ppin Heart & Soul in the Kitchen (N° 356558393888)
- t***t (109)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoShipped quickly, well packed, and in advertised condition. It was listed as being in good condition and, other than a big crease in the back cover, the rest of the book was in very good condition so the description was accurate. I also bought another book from the seller and that one was better than advertised condition so this is a very good seller.
