THE ARCHAEOLOGY AND

ANTHROPOLOGY OF LANDSCAPE

The study of landscape has become increasingly important in archaeology,

anthropology and geography. Researchers have raised their perspective beyond

that of the individual site or settlement to address the ways in which social

process and cultural meanings are shaped by and leave their mark upon the

landscape.

The Archaeology and Anthropology of Landscape contains twenty-eight

thematic chapters based on contributions to the third World Archaeological

Congress held in New Delhi in 1994. Contributors from the British Isles,

Scandinavia, North and South America, India, Australia and the Pacific

demonstrate the value of cross-disciplinary research in the fields of archaeology,

anthropology and geography. They investigate how the meaning of landscapes

has either been retained or transformed over time. They also explore how and

why different communities sharing the same environment have different

perceptions of their surroundings, especially where one is a colonising power.

This book provides new and varied case studies of landscape and environment

from five continents and will be of interest to all concerned with the theoretical

debates as well as the policy-making issues concerning development and the

management of heritage.

Peter J.Ucko is Director of the Institute of Archaeology, University College
